Pod Stallions 121: The Alien FranchiseWhat has two arms, two mouths and gets you right in the chest?It's ALIEN, of course,and since 1979 it's titular character has appeared (tho altered) in multiple big budget flicks, with varying and often disappointing results.

Episode 119 Pod Stallions: Joe Flaherty TributeLife is swings and roundabouts, we are lucky to live through times enjoying brilliant art, but as the years creep on, we lose more of the artists. Joe Flaherty gave us more laughs than can be counted, and because he means so much to us we do our best to honour him, his many characters and his dependabi…

Star Trek vs Star Wars. Tolkien vs Herbert. Coke vs Pepsi. And we add one more head-to-head battle into the Thunderdome: Microcops vs Space Police. Yes, we did the work, so you don't have to. Two busted TV pilots, both in the law enforcement genre, only one will suck a little less than the other. Are you on the edge of your seat yet? You won't be! …

Hey listeners- it's 2024!What better time than to look backwards at 2023? We took our time this year and decided to really hone our lists of our fave movies, tv shows, toys, DVDs and other sundries that were gifted to us in '23. We cover many ground, with the usual controversies and heavy political commentary. Kidding! It's nothin' but fun. Enjoy (…

If we Letterboxed our viewing habits in 2023, we're estimating between us we've spent close to one full month (maybe one with 28 days) watching everything from TV series to movies, highbrow to lowbrow and all points in between. We thought it'd be fun to wind 2023 down by recommending titles to the most discerning listeners in podcastville. So it's …

Pod Stallions 115: Doctor Who at 60We're not ones to dwell on the passage of time (and let's face it, no one wants that shock to the system) but it IS hard to believe that it's now been 60 years since two schoolteachers went to that junkyard for the trip of a lifetime, and Doctor Who began. Luckily, according to the Doctor, time is immaterial. But …

Before the MCU and Multiverses, before the Snyderverse, before the summers that the Shadow and the Phantom RULED the cineplexes (didn't they?), it was a world when the superhero and pulp characters reigned supreme in Saturday morning serials. The precursor of the modern action movie, their impact can be felt to this day , and since we keep our fing…

Welcome to the first of what is a new obsession with us, Busted TV Pilots! For the inaugural episode, we've chosen two absolute doozies starting with the "Man from the 25th Century" AKA "Irwin Allen's Kitchen Junk Drawer." Followed up with Jason's choice, the American version of "Spaced" which, totally doesn't suck. Then we trail off into topics li…

Keen-eared listeners of the Pod Stallions podcast know that those boys can talk, know a lot of stuff and have opinions, whether they're asked for or not. Each episode peels back another layer of the enigma-onion that is BraSon, revealing more of their likes, loves and mehs. We thought it was a good time to rip another layer off and talk about What …

For years now, ⁠Pod Stallions⁠ fans have been wondering what makes its enigma-like hosts tick: what are their loves? Hates? Favorites? Secret crushes? Where do they go when they cry? Did they really nearly come to blows with two other podcast hosts debating the best Phantom, Paradise or Opera? Well, some of those and many more burning questions wil…

Who comes to mind when you think creepy, mysterious, and spooky? That's right, the Pod Stallions boys! Oh, and The Addams Family, and since we clearly have so much in common, we thought it best to wrap up our October '22 celebrations by praising the Addamses in all their incarnations. Since our 1st Oct. '22 Ep was The Munsters, and the two have gon…

It's that time again, when you curl up with a good horror movie and a bucket of candy and celebrate all that's creepy, which means it must be October and time for Pod Stallions' double dose of chat for the Greatest Holiday Ever Made. To show just how seriously we take it, for Ep 1 we've asked old chum and repeat offender David Weiner (In Search of …

Who Watches the Watchmen?? WE do! And we've read it, too!

Even as kids, the Pod Stallions boys voraciously kept up with their periodicals. Newsweek, National Geographic, Highlights and Dynamite, to name a few. But one mag stands above all others for most information gleaned: Doctor Who Magazine. (Formerly DW Monthly, formerly DW Weekly). Without whom we wouldn't have been half as Who-smart as we were. Eve…

Well, Summer's just around the corner and going out to the movies seems to be making a comeback, so what better time to reminisce about those way-back muggy months when the inside of a cool theatre was a weekly ritual?This time it's the Summer of '84: Venkman's, Thugees, Starfighters, Mogwai, Nerds and the C.H.U.D (!!!) are just some of the miscrea…

It's hard to believe, but just a short time ago we had the wacky idea to record the pop culture-centric phone chats we regularly had, in the hopes that there'd be a few other people out there that would find them amusing. Seems our instincts were right, cuz we shut our eyes, hit the gas, drove off the cliff and before we knew it, we headed towards …

Never say we don't finish things, here is the second part to an episode we started in 2015 (we were just kids them) where J and B discuss the many Planet of the Apes sequels, the tv series, the cartoon, the Tim Burton movie and the Matt Reeves take on Apes. It's a wonderful trip to 3978 that hopefully won't have you saying "Damn you, Jason and Bria…
