02.26.2021 Episode 55 - City Limits I don’t know a lot about science, let alone mad science, but I’m pretty sure doing an “exchange program” with your test subjects isn’t par for the course. But in the domain of Dr. Odd “par for the course” is ...

02.19.2021 Episode 48 - Santa Claus Conquers The Martians Hello and happy holidays! (whatever holidays those may be). Dr. Odd has mysteriously disappeared, leaving us completely unsupervised up here in space. Since this was the case, we threw a dart at our space calendar and decided that by our ...

02.16.2021 Episode 45 - Star Force: Fugitive Alien II Learning is fun! At least that’s what Dr. Odd wants us to believe, and even then, learning all about cheese doesn’t really seem that helpful. This will all (hopefully) make sense once you listen to the episode. This week we ...
