In the first interview of 2026, Mike “The Birdman” goes back to the TTRPG space to talk about..aliens!

No, not Xenomorphs but little green men from the alternate history ot the 1950s with the game “REDACTED”. Developed by Al Spader and TWIG’s own, Aaron Pollyea. Investigate what really happened after the Roswell crash of 1947, discover the secret aliens who work with the world’s governments and beyond! Mike, Al and Aaron talk UFOs, giant termites and the campy 1950’s B movies that inspired this companion game to “Saucer squadron”.

You are now an agent of MAJESTIC and what you hear next may change the course of human history on Earth and beyond!

This Week in Geek’s Loose Cannon is our all around movies podcast covering the weird, wild, or sometimes nostalgic world of films.

This time, our full crew of Birdman, Ken, David and Adam discuss two underrated movies in the Disney Animation catalog. First is the Swashbuckling Science Fiction twist on Robert Lewis Stevenson’s Treasure Island, Treasure Planet, and the second is the classic adventure feature using the designs of comic book artist Mike Mignola, Atlantis the Lost Empire. Some of us have never seen both or one of these and for some of us they’ve become staples of both our childhoods and adulthoods.

It’s another TWIG Loose Cannon. Please Be Kind and Don’t Forget to Rewind before returning your videos to the shelves.

This Week in Geek’s Loose Cannon is our all around movies podcast covering the weird, wild, or sometimes nostalgic world of films.

Happy Holidays! This time, Ken, Adam and David begin our long digesting Lord of the Rings Retrospective. Some of us are book readers and some of us are revisiting these features for the first time as adults. It’s a Birdman free episode that resulted in a little more freeform discussion that we hope you enjoy for the holidays.

It’s a holiday spirited TWIG Loose Cannon!

Please Be Kind and Don’t Forget to Rewind before returning your videos to the shelves.
