Life is swings and roundabouts, we are lucky to live through times enjoying brilliant art, but as the years creep on, we lose more of the artists. Joe Flaherty gave us more laughs than can be counted, and because he means so much to us we do our best to honour him, his many characters and his dependability in the latest Pod Stallions.

We, um, also manage to squeeze in commercials featuring Doctor Who actors, Lifeforce, and the cinematic oeuvre of Steve Railsback.

It'll all make sense. Enjoy.

What better time than to look backwards at 2023? We took our time this year and decided to really hone our lists of our fave movies, tv shows, toys, DVDs and other sundries that were gifted to us in '23. We cover many ground, with the usual controversies and heavy political commentary. Kidding! It's nothin' but fun. Enjoy (please) our Best of 2023!

Pod Stallions 116: Burger King Onion Ring Fireside Chat

If we Letterboxed our viewing habits in 2023, we're estimating between us we've spent close to one full month (maybe one with 28 days) watching everything from TV series to movies, highbrow to lowbrow and all points in between. We thought it'd be fun to wind 2023 down by recommending titles to the most discerning listeners in podcastville. So it's another fine episode of 'What We've Been Watching!' on Pod Stallions. Hope it helps!

Topics discussed: Doctor Who, Daleks, Doctor Who Fan Clubs, Tardis Model kit, Matt Smith, Tom Baker, Dapol, Sylvestor McCoy, Colin Baker, BBC, TVO, David Tennant, Bif Bang Pow, Suhtek, Mechanoids, Warriors of the Deep, Silurians, Sea Devils, JNT, Peter Davison, Annuals, Doctor Who magazine, Steven Moffat, Amy Pond,

Anyone who knows the Pod Stallions boys knows our love of Halloween borders on the obsessive. In fact, it's so strong that one single topic isn't enough for our final Halloween episode. So this one's a Trick R Treat Grab Bag of sugary, monster-loving goodness. Movies, costumes, candy and heck, even the weather get covered.

Join us, won't you, for our 2023 Halloween farewell by overdosing on scary goodness. And try not to think about the next Halloween being 365 days away.

Before the MCU and Multiverses, before the Snyderverse, before the summers that the Shadow and the Phantom RULED the cineplexes (didn't they?), it was a world when the superhero and pulp characters reigned supreme in Saturday morning serials. The precursor of the modern action movie, their impact can be felt to this day , and since we keep our fingers on the pulse, we thought it was high time we showed them some love. So grab yer popcorn and Buck Rogers Disintegrator Pistols as we thread the projector and eat a bowl of healthy serial(s).

Welcome to the first of what is a new obsession with us, Busted TV Pilots!

For the inaugural episode, we've chosen two absolute doozies starting with the "Man from the 25th Century" AKA "Irwin Allen's Kitchen Junk Drawer." Followed up with Jason's choice, the American version of "Spaced" which, totally doesn't suck.

Then we trail off into topics like Dick Shawn, rare SCTV and voice-over legend Bob Holt.

Got a busted TV pilot for us? Let us know in the Pod Stallions Facebook group!

Topics include Green Room, VFW, Love Boat, Doctor Who, Are you being served?, Star Trek, History of the World Part 2, Battlefield Earth, The Intruder Within, GORP, Patrick, Australian Cinema, Documentaries, Bob and David, Dick Shawn, Failed TV pilots,
