46: I Like My Coffee Like My Evil Sith Lords

| 2 Comments

“Star Wars,” the original film, is finally in our crosshairs, and if we can bulls-eye a Womp Rat we can take on this classic sci-fi film. We talk about our first memories of Star Wars, pretend the prequels didn’t happen, give Cantina drink-ordering tips, and marvel at Darth Vader’s coffee-drinking habits. (Part 1 of 2.)

44: Emperor Aquaman

| 3 Comments

DC decides to stick a fork in continuity and reboot its universe. Publicity stunt, bold creative move, or both? Andy Ihnatko joins Lisa, Jason, and the good Jason to discuss this latest attempt to save the comics industry.

The incomparable download: Episode 44 (57 minutes, 25 MB MP3 file)

The Incomparable participants: Lisa Schmeiser, Jason Brightman, Andy Ihnatko, and the goateed evil twin (apparently this is a running thing now?) of Jason Snell.

Spoiler Horn

Jason Brightman spoils several twist and turns in recent issues of Flashpoint, the miniseries that might or might not lead up to the destruction of the DC universe. If you don't want to know what Bruce Wayne's pop has been up to, or what DC hero managed to grotesquely burn himself, don't listen from minute 30 (first horn) to about minute 33.

43: Mulder and Pacey in "The F-Files"

Everybody’s got an adorable parallel-universe nickname — The Walternate! Flauxlivia! Pacey! — on the always unpredictable Fox sci-fi show Fringe. Sure, it’s no Lost (nor X-Files, nor “Enemy Within”) but it’s got its charms, including high-speed pregnancy, Leonard Nimoy impressions and cast members from “The Wire” not being given enough interesting things to do.

The incomparable download: Episode 43 (62 minutes, 17 MB MP3 file)

The Incomparable participants: Dan Moren, John Siracusa and a goateed alternate reality Jason Snell.

If you haven’t watched “Fringe” and plan to, there are lots and lots and lots of spoilers. If you haven’t watched “Fringe” and don’t plan to, the whole thing doesn’t make a damned lick of sense.
