Cigar Nerds Podcast and The Masters of the Universe. This week we travel to Eternia to check out the latest live action He-Man movie. Does it impress a child of the 80s or not? I have the power! In science we talk about robots taking retail jobs, AI saving the whales, VR changes your brain, and fire tornadoes. In Nerd News we discuss Coyote Vs Acme, New Mad Max, Doctor Who problems, Pinnochio Unstrung, and Scooby Doo cast. This week I’m smoking the CAO America 250th.

The legendary Paul McCartney has a very busy time lately, with a new album (The Boys of Dungeon Lane), appearances on Saturday Night Live and the final Stephen Colbert show, a new exhibition at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and a recent book and documentary. Rob and Alan talk all about McCartney’s goings on and review the new album, and get a little melancholy about aging and memory. 

First, though, we talk about Sonny Rollins, who passed away on May 25, 2026.

The post Legends of the DCU Episode 10 (Legacy #449) – Long Live the King appeared first on The ESO Network.

The world was stunned in 2021 when Disney announced that it would continue the popular series of X-Men: The Animated Series with X-Men ’97. The decision came in the aftermath of huge streaming numbers for the original animated show on Disney+. Realizing that there was a market for a continuation, Disney decided to create a series as if it were being made in 1997 and was the next season for the original X-Men show. In this episode we discuss the first season of X-Men ’97. We discuss the various aspects of the plot and how that feels as a continuation of the original series and how it works to develop themes that resonate today. We talk about the vocal performances, music, and art style and whether or not those live up to our expectations of the original animated show. We also debate MCU tie-ins, Captain America’s position, Rogue’s relationships, and the depictions of various characters.

The five-minute controversy this weeks asks if we think that it’s wise for Disney to make a deal with Seven Bucks Productions after Dwayne Johnson has been such a toxic influence in Hollywood lately.

This week Beth, Mike, and Eric join the cast.

The post The 42cast Episode 286: Nostalgia Trip appeared first on The ESO Network.

Eight possessed animatronics. Zero words spoken. One very sacred pinball break. Spilled Tea and Karen are clocking in for the night shift at Willy’s Wonderland. The 2021 Nicolas Cage horror comedy that somehow made a man silently beating animatronic mascots to death one of the most compelling performances of the year. They break down the Cage factor, the killer animatronic designs, the Five Nights at Freddy’s comparison nobody asked for but everybody had, and why this gloriously unhinged $5 million film found a cult audience that a lot of bigger budget horror films could only dream of.

Hey hey, they’re the monkeys! We’re watching Star Trek: Enterprise Season 3, Episode 3 “Extinction,” but only Bill has actually watched it and will explain to Jamie, Maria and our special guest Stephen Granade what happened on this episode, where in a quest to track down the Xindi, Archer and co. land on a planet that immediately rewrites their DNA into inarticulate savages who think only of their own species. So, yeah, big change. But then aliens with flamethrowers show up and once again it’s T’pol’s job to save these simians before everything goes burney-burney!
