Yay, more Star Noir! Fun to say, fun to read. Scott is once again joined by Tony James to talk about random British TV shows...and I guess his ongoing comic Star Noir. If there's time.

I mean, did YOU ever think we'd get here? Did you ever contemplate the idea of a Barbie summer blockbuster? More to the point, did you think we'd ever review it? Well, here we are! This is the world we live in now. Scott is joined by Alex Mirabal to talk about the new Barbie movie and face the fact that it's...good? This really is the weirdest timeline.

After numerous technical difficulties and delays, Podcapers is back with a brand new episode! This week, Scott interviews indie comic creator Dean Page about his two comics, Cosmo Natalya and The Return of Jake Sunrise. While also waffling on about Douglas Adams. Because if you're going to waffle on about something, it should be Douglas Adams.

Star Wars Visions is back and better than ever! In the wake of increasingly disappointing Star Wars news, Scott really needed a pick me up from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Thankfully AP2HYC writer Michael Dobbinson is here to discuss the highs and...well there aren't that many lows in this season tbh. This was awesome to watch!

There's a whole lotta love for the new Dungeons and Dragons movie. But can it win over two long time D&D players? Scott is joined by Jillian Diblasio to talk about the fantasy heist movie and the various Nat 20's and Nat 1's therein. Scott in particular might need a bit of convincing, but it's only a DC 10 Persuasion check! Anyone getting these references?

What happens when a sexist and heteronormative space program launches a bunch of women and non-binary people into space? A great comedy audio drama is born! Scott is joined by the co-creators Lauren Anderson and Meegan May to talk about the inspiration behind this very funny series, their process for making it, and how the Little Mermaid is an inspiration for redheads everywhere simply by dint of being a redhead.

Well we HAD to! In the wake of the overwhelming negative backlash this reimagining of Scooby-Doo received, Scott is joined by Archit Tripathi to talk about the first two episodes. Archit thinks the show could get better. Scott has had his heart broken too many times to consider it. Let the chaos reign!

Look out She-Ra, there's a new Queer animated show in town! Scott is joined by Dragon Age aficionado and cosplayer extraordinaire Kit "PuddyGeeks" Brunton to talk about Netflix's new show set in BioWare's video game universe. And Scott knows next to nothing about it. Needless to say, there are opinions abound.

Insert "Still better than Rise of Skywalker" joke here. In all seriousness, this is a good show. Perhaps a bit flawed, but even that can be quite interesting. At least, it's interesting to Scott and Francisco Andrande! They're gonna discuss the pitfalls and high points of Cassian Andor's journey to Rogue One, all while trying (and failing) to not mention The Book of Boba Fett.

With the chaos of the past Halloween specials behind him, Scott settles down with Alex Mirabal and Jillian Diblasio to watch a spooky season staple that he's never seen before...Hocus Pocus. Yes, really. Will this classic bit of 90's Disney fun win Scott over? Or will it be equally as traumatising as getting hounded by extradimensional supervillians?

Time for a proper geekabout! Scott is joined this week by Mark Adams of Hellbound Media to talk about their new kickstarter, but in typical Podcapers fashion they end up talking about some random nonsense instead. Topics include Counsellor Troi, inaccurate Keanu Reeves movies, and fracking. Because why not.

Take a drag on your cigarette, order a steak with an egg on top, and straighten your fedora because we're going back to the 1940's! But not necessarily the 40's you remember. Scott is joined by comic writer Tony James to talk about the Kickstarter for his newest comic, Star Noir. But Scott being Scott, there are numerous random tangents along the way!

Dream a little dream of me. The Sandman is finally here! And Scott is joined by not one, but TWO fans of the original comic to talk about it. Lyndon White and Jillian Diblasio discuss the highs and...slightly less highs (because there aren't any real lows) of the new netflix show and bemoan the current state of DC films to boot.

Space Vikings Y'all! Thor is back and is...better than ever? Not really. This film is a bit of a mess. Thankfully, Scott has Mark Russell to help him navigate the murky, yet rainbow filled waters of Thor's fourth solo film. But just because there's rainbows, don't expect proper LGBTQIA+ representation!

It's got some problems, but most of those aren't actually it's own fault. Join Scott and Alex Mirabal as they explore the dark world of The Batman and try to answer the most head scratching riddle of them all: Is this the best Batman film?

Jinkies! It's spooky season, which means now's a great time to watch a bad movie. Sadly though, it must be a bad Scooby-Doo movie, because the early 2000's liked to punish us for having nostalgia. Scott is joined by Jillian Diblasio to watch this dog's dinner of a movie and wonder what went wrong?

Crikey, that's a long title! It's a jam packed episode this week Capers! Scott is joined once again by Francisco Andrade to talk about not one but TWO topics. This episode was just going to be about Venom 2: Let There Be A Mild Kerfuffle, but DC, rather rudely, released all these cool teasers and trailers this weekend. So Scott had no choice but to talk about both. Either that or spend a whole episode talking about Venom, and hones...
