It’s time for another jaunt into the weird world of science, technology and beyond, so join Rob and Producer Rob as they delve into the cosmos and head to Pluto to find out what it’s made of (just to be clear, we’re not picking a fight). After that it’s back […]
Podcasts
Literary Loitering 86 – Captain Swallow: Scourge of All Seamen
We’re a man down this week, but since it’s the most sensible of our three amigos it’s up to Andrew and Producer Rob to offer a half-hearted Amigo Salute before settling down to the serious business of cultural anarchy. So what do we have in store this time? Well, John […]
4-Panel 142 – Grimy Old Man Logan
We’ve got a shorter episode than normal of everyone’s friendly(ish), neighbourhood comics and manga podcast as Andrew and Producer Rob discuss The Pouch – Rob Liefeld’s newest character, the news that Todd Macfarlane will direct the new Spawn movie (which will star Jamie Foxx in the title role), the Netflix […]
Cinema Eclectica 162 – The Revenant: The James Brown Cut
Silence! It’s a bad idea for podcasts, but as the BFI are reminding us with their re-release of G. W. Pabst’s pre-talkie classic “Pandora’s Box”, it’s a good idea for movies. So how will this icon of silent cinema (and the decades-old inspiration for the hairstyles of people going to […]
Keyframe 118 – A Psychedelic Night In
So aside from Producer Rob confusing his Sarahs (it should be Sarah Michelle Gellar and not Sarah Jessica Parker), Peter Rabbit gets a sequel, Netflix and Viz Media announce an original martial arts anime series set in Mexico, and Christiano Ronaldo gets animated. After that we’ve got kids versus cats […]
PX28 – Dreams and Expectations: E3 2018
E3 has just begun so Mark and Producer Rob take a flight of fancy and postulate, peruse and ponder on the possibilities that will be showcased at this annual cavalcade of video games. Join us as we adopt our best “Thinker” poses, flex our thumbs and minds, and speculate on […]
4-Panel 141 – Dimension Jumping Lassie
Andrew and Producer Rob are back to talk about some narrative sequential art (you know, comics and stuff … and maybe the odd cave painting). Kicking things off this week is the news that Mysterio will be the main villain in the sequel to Spiderman: Homecoming, which leads us on […]
Cinema Eclectica 161 – Vera Drake in 4DX
In a week that includes a new Star Wars film then that’s what you have to do, which is why we can’t ignore the release of “Solo: A Star Wars Story”. Unfortunately Graham, Aidan and Sarah are all at very different levels of the Star Wars fandom, so what will […]
Keyframe 117 – Death Metal Trash Panda
It’s a sparse week in animation as not much of interest happened, except for the trailer for Teen Titans Go! To The Movies and the English language summary of The Association of Japanese Animation’s industry report for 2017. The trailer splits opinions between Tucky and Producer Rob, but all is […]
S15E20 – A Horse Called Justice
The Geek Show returns for another foray into the weird happenings of science, technology and the world at large, which this time around include the latest antics from entrepreneur and closet Bond villain Elon Musk, getting porn from newsagents again (ah, technology!), interactive films, robot dogs versus door handles, special […]
