I’ve referenced on the podcast that I am currently going through a re-watch of Quantum Leap. I imagine this will eventually lead to an episode of Dragonfly Ripple as my daughter is joining me on this journey. Specifically, I am watching the Mill Creek Entertainment-produced Quantum Leap Blu-rays. I had owned the earlier DVD release [...]
Jeeg and CT welcome Mike Westfall and Will Webster back to the show for a discussion of friendships in pop culture.

From Stephen Root to wizarding conspiracy theories to Orko, [...]

David Pietrandrea of Your Weird and Robox Studios joins the nerds in Fourth Chair this week. They are wielding the pop culture eraser yet again, but this time with a twist. Now the mysterious stranger demands that balance be brought to the universe and the nerds must erase people and items from categories not of [...]
While other podcasts talk about superheroes fighting, this week Pax and Jeeg wax poetic about the recently completed British costume drama, Downton Abbey. Joining them in the Fourth Chair is first time guest John Vanover from the Action Figure Blues podcast and the TV and Film Toys site. What did it mean for Lady Edith to find [...]
Michael May completes his four week Nerd Lunch tour of duty and we make his dream of guesting with William Bruce West come true.
