Time travel is a fun concept to contemplate. When would you go? How would you get there? The questions and thought experiments are endless. There might not be a more exciting concept in all of pop culture.

Time travel is the hypothetical activity of traveling into the past or future. Time travel is a widely recognized concept in philosophy and fiction, particularly science fiction. In fiction, chrono travel is typically achieved through the use of a hypothetical device known as a time machine. The idea of a time machine was popularized by H. G. Wells‘ 1895 novel The Time Machine.

Speaking of travel through time, this episode travels back 9 years. At that time, I was recording the Rusted Robot Podcast with my wife. Episode 32 was all about traveling through time. On this episode, we will all travel into the past to hear that episode that was recorded so long ago.

The bulk of the show references a T-shirt I once owned. On this shirt was a clock and each hour was a different method of pop culture time travel shenanigans. Some travel methods include the T.A.R.D.I.S. from Doctor Who, the time machine from the classic film The Time Machine, and the Delorean from the Back to the Future franchise. Also included is the Guardian of Forever from the classic Star Trek episode, “The City of the Edge of Forever”. This leads into a nice discussion of Star Trek.

Later in the episode, we talk about books that include temporal displacement. Stephen King wrote 11/22/63 and Evan Mandery wrote a book called Q. The episode finishes up with a talk about some Doctor Who collectibles.

This week’s podcast promos: Cigar Nerds Podcast, and The Con Guy

Joe and Toni are joined by good boomer Steve Conway to discuss Dickens deep cuts, rereading cliffhangers, and how Toni is always right and you should always listen to them in the Doctor Who episode The Unquiet Dead.

Flopcast episode 585! As we cross the halfway point in our ten-part exploration of the 1980s, we’re randomly recasting the movies of 1985, and hopefully making them weirder. We might extract Chevy Chase from Fletch, for example, and drop him into the Kelly LeBrock role in Weird Science. That would free up Kelly to star in Rambo: First Blood Part II, Stallone can replace Cher as the mom in Mask, and so on. Chances of this being a huge disaster: excellent. If you’ve ever wondered why we don’t run Hollywood, this episode may provide some answers. Also: We’re watching unsettling 1985 Pizza Hut commercials, and Kornflake is a secret Rush fan.

WHAM!

This week your hosts Rob and Alan, joined by our good buddy JM Tuffley, do the jitterbug as we take a peek at the new Wham! documentary on Netflix. Described by Decider as “a buddy film disguised as a music documentary, Wham! tells the story of how Andrew Ridgeley and George Michael met, became besties, formed a band, and achieved massive worldwide fame — as well as some of the personal struggles along the way. 

After that, we do our Picks of the Week (including Garbage, Pet Shop Boys, Sleepy Kitty, BDRMM, Lloyd Cole, and more, plus a short tribute to Jane Birkin), and Rob gives us reviews of the Taylor Swift and Sparks shows he saw last week. 

What did you think of the Wham! doc? What are your favorite Wham! songs? Drop us a line at [email protected] or leave a comment wherever you find our episode! And don’t forget to rate us on your favorite podcast app!

This Week on Earth Station DCU! Drew Leiter and Cletus Jacobs are on a collision course of catastrophic proportions. The three kingdoms join together in a common defense against their new enemy in Dark Knights of Steel #11. Jon Kent visits the Jay Nakamura of the Injustice Earth in Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #4. After revealing his secret to the world, John Henry Irons retires from being Steel in Steelworks #1.

After a return to his Earth, Batman tells Mr. Terrific he is fine…but is he really. Bruce has locked Zur En Arrh away in his mind instead of destroying him.
