PodCulture 43: ThunderCats Over Louisville – Part A


The geeksome threesome returns with their special guest, Shane!

We begin with our week in geek with what we’ve been up to. Glenn’s finally watching Lost, more Dangerman and, to Shane’s happiness, the first season of 24. We discuss Keifer (once a vampire), and Donald (once a Watcher) Sutherland. Glenn’s playing Ghost Recon-Advanced Warfighter 2, while Chrisitna is addicted to the simplistic Chicken Invaders 2 on MSN.com.

Brad weaves the epic tale of the ill-timed death of the Culture Cruiser’s battery, and Shane mourns the illness of his brand new HD television, and the horror from Buy.com

Our DVD players overfloweth this week. Glenn’s watching Children of Men, Lost, and Dangerman, while pining for the Space 1999 set. Brad and Christina talk (spoiler free) about the series finale of Stargate: SG-1. The three discuss Casnio Royale, both pro and con, and even about the James Bond comic by Mike Grell. We cover Justice League Unlimited and Batman Beyond, and the awesomeness of John Glover’s voice.

On a similar note, we discuss the new “remake” genre with TMNT, as well as the upcoming Astroboy and Gatchaman movies. Believe it or not, Christina has a flashback to her childhood adoration of The Greatest American Hero. Did you have a show you watched when you were young? If you’ve seen it again recently, is it as good as you remember, or are you trying to figure out why the heck you ever enjoyed it in the first place? Let us know!

Geek Cuisine this week is Orange Cream Hershey Kisses , and Christina reveals her Peep weakness.

Promos this week come graciously from Cup Car Update, and Indiana Jim (from the Things Are Looking Up podcast) for the Dragon Hearth podcast.

PodCulture 42: Goodnight Ninja

After a silent week in respect for the passing of our friend and fellow podcaster, Joe Murphy, The Culture Crew returns to pay one more tribute.

A very special Geek Cuisine incorporates two of Joe’s favorite sources of sugar. We’ve got four varieties of root beer: Thomas Kemper, Hank’s, Stewarts, and Abita. Combine those with the fantastic Australian Violet Crumble candy bar, and you can practically hear our teeth ache!

Our musical guests for this tribute are two of Joe’s favorite geeky songs, Skullcrusher Mountain from the fabulous Jonathan Coulton, and Scott Bakula by Sunspot Music.

Finally, a song written especially in Joe’s honor. Enjoy Mason Rocket by the band, Beatnik Turtles.

We’ll be back next week with our normal doses of geektainment.
