This week I go back to one of my regular type of podcasts, covering a particular year in movies. First I talk about my job change a bit more and a bit about what I’ve been watching lately. Then on to the main topic. The year, 1982 was incredible for Sci-Fi and fantasy based films. Everything from “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan”, to “Blade Runner” and “Tron” and many more. I cover some of the big ones that crazy summer of 1982 when almost every week some new future classic film was coming out. It was amazing! I wish we had that kind of crazy creativity these days. I need a billion dollars to start my own movie studio! Hope you enjoy this look back at the movies of 1982 that we all still love.

That’s it for this time. I’ll be back in two weeks to report on how my new job is going and also more geeky goodness. Take care and stay well until then.

This week I talk about some recent movies and TV related to robots and androids. I also comment on some like changes going on with me and talk about other TV and movies I’ve been watching. Mainly I talk about two recent movies, “Mickey 17” and “The Electric State.” I enjoyed both of these recent movies and one definitely includes many fun robots too. I need to watch “The Wild Robot” soon as well. I talk about artificial intelligence and why I think we are a long way off from having human like android companions. A fun podcast and hope you enjoy it!

I’ll be back in two weeks with a new show. Until then take take care.

This week a more classic style show with some TV and movie talk and a Trek episode commentary. I talk spoiler free about “Captain America: Brave New World” and other things I’ve been watching recently. Then I move on to the Lower Decks episode.

The final LD episode of season two was “First First Contact” and it’s a good one. Lots going on for the crew of the Cerritos in this episode and fun moments too. Thing I love about Lower Decks is all the cool references and things you get to see like Cetacean Ops! Just a great episode of a great series!

That’s it for this week, I’ll be back in two weeks with a new podcast. Enjoy the Oscars tonight! Take care and stay well!

This week I cover a fun topic – Cyberpunk in movies and TV. I start the show with my normal rambling talk about recent TV and movies I’ve been watching and enjoying then it’s on to the main topic. The term Cyberpunk started back around 1980 and we have had many movies based on this tech filled, not so wonderful future look ahead. The “Blade Runner” films are a perfect example of this genre. I cover quite a few films and some TV shows that fit this subject. It was fun to cover these cool projects.

I’ll be back in two weeks with another new podcast. Until next time stay well and safe out there.

This week we have new “Star Trek” to discuss. Yes, I’m talking about the “Star Trek: Section 31” streaming film now showing on various streaming outlets. I first cover my usual round up of TV and films I’ve been watching, including the recent “Nosferatu” remake that came out just a little more than a month ago. Then on to the Section 31 talk.

Most people seem disappointed in this latest Trek effort and I’m one of them. I talk about some of the background about the project and what I thought of the characters and storyline. Overall, not a great film – either for Trek or on it’s own. Listen to more of my comments on the podcast.

That’s it for this time. Until about two weeks from now take care and stay well.

This week it’s back to basics with a classic style podcast. I decided to cover a “Star Trek: Voyager” episode in honor of the 30th Anniversary of the series that started way back in January of 1995. I cover with commentary the 1st season episode “Prime Factors” this week. First I discuss the TV and movies I’ve been watching and a few other non-genre topics too. This it’s on to the Trek episode.

I liked watching this episode “Prime Factors” quite a bit. I didn’t have much of a memory of this episode and it’s a really good one I think. The crew finds a planet that has the technology to basically get them home quickly but several ethical dilemmas cause that to be not an easy answer. Really solid episode with some great performances – especially for an episode in the middle of season one. Give it a watch.

That’s it for this week. I’ll be back in two weeks with another new show. Until next time take of yourself.

For my first podcast of 2025, I run down most of the big genre movies coming out later this year. It looks like three Marvel movies, one BIG DC movie, several sequels and much more. It should be a good year at the movies. I also talk about my latest TV watching and a Patreon contest winner is announced. I think a fun and good podcast to start off for 2025. Hope you enjoy it!

This week our musical guest host Vartok is back with another musical guest podcast. Here are some notes from the man himself on his latest show.

The “Starship Troopers” franchise has grown considerably since the release of Robert Heinlein’s Starship Soldier in October and November 1959 in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction as a two-part serial titled Starship Soldier.  As of 2024 there are 3 live action films, 2 CGI animated films, 2 animated TV series, 6 video games, a board game, a pinball machine, and a 3-issue comic book.  Sci-fi fan boys, fan girls, and fan aliens can enjoy Johnny Rico and the Military Infantry roughnecks for hours on end.  The first live action film, titled Starship Troopers, is now considered a cult classic.  Vartok delves into the militaristic music of the 3 live action films in Treks in Sc-Fi podcast #951.  Would you like to know more?
