Disney captured the spotlight for a whole weekend with several big announcements on upcoming projects in film, TV, streaming and theme parks. In this episode, Andy Farnsworth is joined by a couple of guys who were there: Geektyrant.com writer and One Minute Critic Kristian Odland and Disney shareholder, superfan and Fan Effect contributor Matthew Hansen. They discuss (with some spoilers for those who are avoiding them) the "Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker" footage and other announcments from the galaxy far, far away like news about "The Mandalorian," "Clone Wars" and Obi-Wan Kenobi series. There's also exciting new info about upcoming Marvel movies and TV series, Pixar and Disney Animation films, live-action Disney projects, and the new Disney+ streaming service.  Join us!

Actor Sebastian Roché joins host Andy Farnsworth for an interview ahead of Roché's appearance at FanX Salt Lake in September.  Roché is known for playing the angel Balthazar on Supernatural, vampire king Mikael on The Vampire Diaries & The Originals, Jerry Jacks on General Hospital, as well as other roles on Fringe, Once Upon a Time, Odyssey 5, Beowulf and The Man in the High Castle. 

In this episode, Sebastian talks about why it's fun to play the villain, which of his roles frightens children, his characters' penchant for being alive when everyone else thinks he's dead, his feelings about Balthazar's final fate on SPN, the thing he sees on TV that drives him crazy, whether he got an invite to Meghan Markle's royal wedding and why he'd love to play King Arthur someday.

In this episode, Andy Farnsworth is joined by award-winning critic & horror movie aficionado Matthew Jacobson to talk about the film and the book series on which it's based.

The first spinoff in the "Fast & Furious" movie franchise might be the most enjoyable of the whole series.  Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Jason Statham are back in "Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw", a ridiculous and highly enjoyable summer flick. Andy Farnsworth is joined by Nerdist and GeekTyrant writer Kristian Odland to discuss "Hobbs & Shaw", (WARNING: SPOILERS after 13:50 mark), how it will affect the larger "Fast & Furious" franchise, and what utterly impossible team-ups they'd like to see in future movies in the series.
