We’re releasing this from behind the veil of our Patreon feed to let y’all regular feed listeners in on one of our Blade retrospectives… but not one you probably know about.
As the credits rolled on the cinematic garbage fire that was Blade: Trinity, we all looked around at ourselves and thought to ourselves: “Well, at least we’ll never get an on-screen Blade as bad as this.” To most of us, this thought was a relief, but to screenwriter David S. Goyer, it was merely a challenge.
If this is the first time you’re hearing of Blade: The Series, there’s definitely a reason for that. Blade: The Series is David S. Goyer’s rock bottom, and considering he wrote the screenplays for Batman v Superman and Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, this is no mean feat. In fact, Blade: The Series is rock bottom for everyone involved. Even Kirk “Sticky Fingaz” Jones, whose job replacing Wesley Snipes as Blade is somehow both the pinnacle and nadir of his short and storied acting career.
On the latest addition to our Patreon feed, Jack and Henry groan, sigh and complain their way through Blade: The Series, where middle-aged vampire moms terrorise the public and we see how the transition to the small screen made Blade a far less effective fighter (unless, of course, he’s up against a pregnant woman).
A podcast for no one. If we get anything wrong, a wizard did it.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
