The Planet 8 crew decided to sit down and have a conversation, a free and wide-ranging talk about recent geek and geek-adjacent topics. Among the things we discuss are recent convention and show experiences, what's going on with Strange New Worlds (and do we like it?), the big summer movies, the passing of Pee Wee Herman, and even the congressional hearings on UAPs (aka UFOs). We just kind of went all over, but hope you'll enjoy it!

We also do the usual Sensor Sweep, where we cover the latest books, toys, and what have you that we are excited about! Be sure to check it out.

We'd love to hear from you - what are you up to this summer? What movies are you going to, what comic cons are you attending, how do you like Strange New Worlds? Let us know!
