Rocketman Explores

We're back!

Well, almost. First point goes to the internet demons (or daemons, for those in the know) for thwarting our attempts to discuss the classing Buffy episode about the catfishing book-demon-turned-internet-demon, Malcolm. When Alexa the Tribble's new podcast One-sided Conversations comes out, you can hear the audio we did manage to save from this episode-that-never-was. 

Tune in every week as Rocketman Explores delves deep into the questions of A.I. this season, starting with our first drink episode next week. 

Join the TFGC crew in their inaugural Christmas Special. What was supposed to be a family show quickly becomes hectic within minutes as trivia host Alexa gets lost in her own logic of the game, silent partner Alex decides to speak up, Technical Tina gets aggressive, Zak reveals his stripper name, Rocketman fends for himself and Dora swears in Romanian. The crew does unite however over the hatred of dabbing Santa, so all is well within the TFGC realm. If you wish to play along, make sure your general podcasting knowledge is up to speed, you’ve watched some classic Christmas movies and of course have listened to some key TFGC podcasts.

That's right, the Rocketman is back for a Halloween special and he brings along two of his most favourite sidekicks for the ride. He's talking repulsive monsters of fiction with host of Smark & Friends Zak and, representing monsters of all kinds, Alexa the Tribble. They are voting out some of the most disgusting, ugly, badly behaved monsters. Just who will win the Repulsive Monster Event? Listen in to find out! 

Rocketman is flying home for some well deserved time off. Before he does however, he makes a stop in to see his favourite tribble, Alexa, and to discuss some good ol' Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Tribble Alexa gets all height... ahem... hot and bothered when Rocketman divulges which waxes are best to use during BDSM. Not that he has experience of course. Grab your Caesar and listen in to Rocketman Explores : Alternate Universes season finale!

Rocketman may greatly dislike this drink, but he does it to be in good company on next week's episode. Blood thirsty? Why don't you make yourself a good ol' fashioned Caesar?

On this episode, Rocketman gets to discuss one of his all time favourite series: Farscape. He is joined by two other fanatics, Kay and Taz, cohosts of the Farscape Friday Podcast. Be sure to make yourself a jug of Moya Mixer for this episode, as it is as chaotic and jumpy as the actual television episode is. 

Find the Farscape Friday Podcast on Apple podcasts and follow them @farscapefriday on Twitter. 

Rocketman blasts off again, this time having forgotten his clothes behind after a couple too many Moya Mixers. This sweet drink is perfect for a hot summer day by the lake, when little to no clothing is acceptable. If the name of this week's drink doesn't give next week's episode away, just pour yourself another, and another, and another... 

The Rocketman and the Tribble talk digital alternate universes with Black Mirror's U.S.S. Callister and compare it to if 2020 were a video game. Starting with a country on fire, a global pandemic and unrest everywhere, clearly the only card left is for aliens to come and invade Earth. Bring it!

Rocketman blasts past an alternate universe that you may think is Star Wars based on the name of the drink he brings home, but it's not! Enjoy Rocketman's take on a Dark n Stormy in this week's drink episode. 

On today's episode, Rocketman picks up a special guest who is no stranger to Star Trek DS9, Cecil Castellucci. Author of Batgirl for DC Comics, graphic memoir Girl on Film and from Waypoint, Mother's Walk, Cecil jumps right into our world of sci-fi and alternate universes, discussing DS9's The Emperor's New Cloak. Make yourself a strong Sisco's Morning Maple Wood and sit yourself down for this week's episode.
