Rock Super Bowl X

On April 18, 1981, I saw my very first all-day stadium show, billed the Rock Super Bowl, featuring Heart, Blue Öyster Cult, Cheap Trick, Firefall, and UFO. In this episode I give you a rundown of that show, share some memories from that amazing day, and play some of the songs that the band played that day. 

Hope you enjoyed this episode. Did you happen to see this show? Drop us a line at [email protected] or just leave a comment on our socials or whatever podcast platform you’re listening to us.

The shadows are deep, the music is loud and the creatures of the night have claimed another episode of the Dragon Con Report. This time, we’re joined by the directors from the Urban Fantasy and Horror Tracks at Dragon Con, along with legendary Goth Party DJ – DJ Ichabod, for a conversation packed with storytelling, music, and late-night energy.

From modern monsters and supernatural storytelling to dance floors filled with black velvet and industrial beats, this episode explores why these tracks continue to be fan favorites year after year.

We dive into what defines urban fantasy and horror in today’s landscape and how both genres continue evolving with new creators, fresh perspectives, and changing audience tastes.

The discussion covers:

Whether you love supernatural detectives, haunted cities, cosmic terror or creatures lurking in dark alleyways – there’s something here for every fan of the strange and unusual.

Creating programming for Dragon Con involves balancing longtime fan favorites with exciting new ideas and the Urban Fantasy and Horror Tracks are no exception.

We talk about:

The track directors also share insight into what makes Dragon Con audiences unique and why these genres connect so strongly with convention fans.

No conversation about these tracks would be complete without discussing one of Dragon Con’s most iconic late-night events: the Goth Party.

DJ Ichabod joins us to talk about:

The result is part dance club, part vampire ballroom, part sleep-deprived fever dream fueled by excitement and excellent music.

Horror and urban fantasy are about more than books and movies. Atmosphere matters. Music matters. Community matters.

This episode explores how music helps shape fandom experiences and why events like the Goth Party become lasting memories for Dragon Con attendees year after year.

One of the biggest themes throughout the conversation is community. Fans return to these tracks because they offer welcoming spaces for creativity, self-expression and shared enthusiasm for all things eerie, magical, and delightfully strange.

Whether through storytelling panels, late-night parties or hallway conversations with fellow attendees – these tracks help create the unforgettable energy that defines Dragon Con.

For more Dragon Con coverage, interviews, and fandom discussions, keep following the Dragon Con Report throughout the season.

This time, The 42cast, is proud to welcome prolific animation writer Brynne Chandler on to the show. Brynne talks to us about her decades of experience, focusing on many ground-breaking series from the 80’s and 90’s including He-Man, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Batman: The Animated Series, and Gargoyles. She talks with us about her experiences working in the industry and her thoughts on some of the series and specific episodes that she worked on. Along the way we discuss such varied topics as where morals in TV series came from, the unintended consequences of being overly protective of young people, whether women like action and explosions, and what the DCEU didn’t understand about Batman and Superman.

As this is an interview episode there is no five-minute controversy.

This one’s a few days late—but for a really good reason.

Leah’s been out of town working as a nurse, helping care for First Nations evacuees from Fort Albany. Every spring, flooding forces northern communities out of their homes. This time, many were relocated to Toronto—about eight hours from us. Leah stepped in as a care coordinator, supporting families during a tough and uncertain time.

She’s home for a quick four-day break… then it’s right back for another 10-day stretch.

We also squeezed in something a little more fun—our 2-year anniversary on May the 4th (yes, that May the 4th). We tried to go out for a nice dinner, but Smelt season had other plans. Every restaurant was either packed or closed. After a bit of running around, we finally landed somewhere and made a night of it.

Bonus: we tried Wayne Gretzky’s salted caramel liqueur. Worth it? We’ll let you know.

In this episode, we also catch up on:

It’s a bit of everything this week—real life, small wins, and a few laughs along the way.
