Earth-2.net Presents...

Big Damn Heroes has hit episode 29, and Angel would like you to repeat what you just called him, please. On both Buffy and Angel, the season plots get rolling, questions are answered sooner than you would expect, and there's a definite sense of the calm before the storm before things get into the shit, as they say. Join Hannah and Will (and Miss Kitty Fantastico) as they cover Buffy's "No Place Like Home" and "Family," and Angel's "Dear Boy" and "Guise Will be Guise."

A new month is here, and that can mean only one thing! Well, it can mean a lot of things. But in this case it means it's Previews time! Make sure to visit the Earth-2.net store: http://store.earth-2.net

All aboard the Dread Media train as Desmond and Darryll finally review the classic Horror Express. Devil Dinosaur Jr. gets his ticket stamped with a Stay Scary about the apocalyptic subway horror film End of the Line. And what else do you think about when you think trains? Red lights, right? I'm trying, sue me! In a brand new Macabre Musical Theatre, Tom Deja raps his way through his thoughts on the psychological thriller Red Lights. Tunes on this Trans-Siberian journey: "Black Train" by The Moistboyz, "Train of Flesh" by Turbonegro, "Last Train to Satansville" by Swervedriver, and "Red Light in my Eyes, Pt. 1" by Children of Bodom.

This is not the best episode in the world; this is just an intermission. After talking about some recent punk rock releases and music-based video games, Desmond and Damien dive into the now classic 1994 Black Sabbath tribute album Nativity in Black. Hear them talk about the state of heavy metal at the time, drop hints on which of the bands are on Desmond's list of future Dropped D fodder, and discuss tribute album etiquette. Trivia time! Which member of the original Sabbath line-up does not appear on the record, but not for lack of trying? Just what does the Mustaine Signal encompass? You better flash it if Al Jourgensen is about to punch you and if you want Dave Mustaine and his taxi to drive up and save you! All this and an Internet first! You're welcome. Kick your almond habit and start listening! Send your questions and comments to: [email protected], or 410.871.8192. Follow @dreadmedia and @DamienWilkens on Twitter!

The San Diego Comic-Con is approaching very quickly, and Mike outlines how you can help Earth-2.net: The Show cover the convention. Then, Mike asks for your help in another way.

Of all the things GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra does wrong, Mike's most bothered by the fact that it's trying too hard to be the cartoon without the sense of joy that came with it. Also, what the hell is Joseph Gordon-Levitt doing here? Make sure to visit the Earth-2.net store: http://store.earth-2.net

Kellen and James pull off something never thought possible on this podcast: they ccurately compare the scenario of a Mushi-Shi episode to an Adam Sandler movie. Which episode of the five reviewed ("Sunrise Serpant," "Pickers of Empty Cocoons," "Clothes that Embrace the Mountain," "String from the Sky," and "A Sea of Writings") is it, and what movie could possibly be compared to this show? All the answers, and a Winnipeg weather update, are concealed within.

Much like he did prior to his review of GI Joe: The Movie, Mike puts the world into context and explains why the mature, more-realistic GI Joe: Resolute is needed in this day and age. He also gushes about its writer: Warren Ellis. Make sure to visit the Earth-2.net store: http://store.earth-2.net

The Boys Outta Brooklyn wander off the mainstream reservation as they take a look at the way indie cinema has transformed into a minor league for the big studios. Tom and Derrick examine how the recent switch to digital projection, Sundance, and other factors have transformed the face of this filmic tradition. Plus, Derrick is reduced to helpless laughter when he learns one of Tom's nicknames, far too much talk about 90s alt-rock and comics, the revelation of where the indie spirit really lives, and a challenge to both the readers and the hosts! You don't want Robert Redford making money off of you, so get to clicking!
