Two True Freaks

In episode 17 of the Man of Screen Extra, Mike Zummo will begin a series within the podcast covering movies that correspond to where he currently is in the regular run of the Man of Screen podcast.

And wouldnt you know? The first episode is a little late.

Despite being ready to start the 1970s, he begins in the 1960s with 1966s “Batman: The Movie” starring Adam West and Burt Ward as the Dynamic Duo.

And hell be joined by Bob Fisher, yep two Superman podcasters talking about Batman.

There will be talk about the show, as well, albeit brief.

Next time: Stay tuned to Facebook and Twitter for more information on that.

In today's adventure, Magnus joins forces with the mighty Rebecca Johnson to talk about the state of a very different union. Specifically, how are things shaping up for the DCEU post-Justice League?

The answer is not what you think.

Isn't that a good teaser? "Whatever you're thinking is WRONG!" Except it might not actually be wrong but these are small details.

Bill, Andrew and Paul are back at it, listening to the Prophets once again. This time out, Gul Dukat has a return to prominence as he and Kira take on some Klingons. Time for Dukat to start planning his enemies' downfall? We'll see. Listen in!

Special guest stars keep appearing. A new kid is added to the cast. A major cast member leaves. Two characters hook up. They cast Ted McGinley. The setting changes. There's yet another very special episode. The Fonz straps on some water skis and JUMPS THE SHARK. Any way you see it, this is the moment when you realize that a show has gone completely downhill. Join me as I take a look back at the late, lamented early 2000s website "Jump the Shark" and use some of its criteria to pinpoint moments of decline in a number of shows, especially 1980s and 1990s sitcoms. Will I jump the shark? Listen to find out!

In this week's not-so-weird-when-you-really-think-about-it episode, Magnus once again joins forces with Chris "Not guilty, Your Honor" Honeywell to fight off frostbite and talk about somwe weird stuff.

But not really.

You see, boys and girls, CGI isn't all that weird. At least not anymore. But it's come a pretty long way and considering the subjects that Magnus and Honeywell have talked about in the past, something that doesn't require wearing asbestos underwear seemed like a really good idea.

No more pop songs for a while, no touchy subjects and no unnecessary fits of temper. This week it's just snow, ice, Dr. Bourbon and friendship.

So what more do you need? Download this show right now before the Snowpocalypse comes looking for you.

Due to the avalanche of awesomeness, there's just no time for listener feedback this week. But Magnus has slowly been getting caught up lately. There's been some feedback recently and there's more coming soon! So don't be left out! You too can offer your feeble effort at tribute whenever you want! Yes indeed, you humble serfs are always welcome to kiss your benevolent leader's ring. Corrupt DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing, able and eager to accept your bribe to present your meager missives to your wise emperor. The email address to use is [email protected] as the other seems to be having technical problems.

In an another sublime act of truly ball-shriveling magnanimity, your emperor permits you lowly rabble to suggest topics for a future episode. Thus, requests may be sent to [email protected] for the aforementioned corrupt DiManzocorp interns (who probably lack souls) to review, whereupon your leader might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise!

Welcome back to Jaig Eyes and Jedi, a podcast covering every episode of Star Wars - The Clone Wars and BEYOND!

There will be - SPACE ANDY GRIFFITH - MCQUARRY ROBOTS - HONDO! - FRANK N' PALPATINE - FINGER TENTING - AND LASER SWORDS!!!!!

Before the Superflu, before Swine Flu, before 28 Days Later and BEFORE the remake of itself there was THE CRAZIES! Join Them Jaconetti Boys (Luke & Jason) and the Woner Chris Twins (Tyler & Honeywell) as they mark the passing of HORROR INNOVATOR GEORGE ROMERO by looking at one of his more ignored films! It's a SMALL TOWN VS THE GIOVERNMENT VS ACTING kind of movie! See what wonders can be wrought on a $7.54 budget!

In today's helping of Trentus Magnus Jabss Reality, Magnus has Superman on the brain. Superman as a lead character and, to a lesser degree, Superman as a guest star. The two really are different from each other... a fact which a lot of fans would do well to remember.

But how different are they really? Well, saying so here defeats the point of listening.

Surf beautiful Lechti Island! Or... maybe not! Break out your sunscreen and coverup, because we are taking a romp through the South Seas this time on Earth Destruction Directive! It's the first of the Godzilla "Island" films when our beloved monster hero battles a condor, a crustacean, and Communists in Godzilla vs The Sea Monster! Then we head west where Big G runs afoul of a bunch of cowboys who should probably know better in Marvel's Godzilla #15! Plus news and more than a few MST3K references, all for your listening pleasure on Earth Destruction Directive!

Avenger's Spotlight returns as Paul & Bill take a look at the next chapter of the Celestial Madonna Saga in Avengers #133. It's a look at the beginnings of the Marvel Universe, with the origin of the Original human Torch sharing space with the origin of the Kree.
