"Disgraced astronaut Mark Mitchell has only ever had one true mission—to find his little brother Joey, who was abducted by aliens from a crop circle when they were little.

But when Mark’s hotshot piloting gets him grounded and the last of the public space program defunded, Mark loses his only means of finding Joey out in space

Until Mark’s homemade scanning rig discovers the shocking truth about the crop circles—they’re instructions for space travel.

Mark will need to uncover the hidden messages that have been left on Earth for years, and reverse engineer the magic that can finally help him find Joey."

We are honored to sit down with Ernie Altbacker to discuss his new Kickstarter campaign Area 51 Studios. "It turns out Area 51 is a secret government base, but not for storing alien corpses or crashed spacecraft. It's actually a studio lot where aliens come to shoot low-budget galactic reality shows."

The story focuses on Zephril Boon as he tries to save his once-great career!

We then catch you up on some pop-culture news such as the wrapping of filming for both Wednesday and Fantastic 4.

Our main topic this week (34min) is diving into the 1984 cult classic Christmas film Gremlins! But, don't worry we also discuss the 1990 sequel Gremlins 2 as well.

We dive into the behind the scenes production of the film, how it came to create the PG-13 rating, and all sorts of fun facts.

We love supporting Indie Comic creators here as well and this episode we have Eddie Lema creator of End of Zed!

Synopsis:
Introducing "End of Zed""End of Zed" is a comic book project I've been developing for years, born from a screenplay and inspired by New York’s raw energy, its art, fashion, and music scenes. As an artist with over 25 years of experience, and as someone who lived through the golden era of graffiti, this project is my creative vision brought to life—a gritty, vibrant story that’s unlike anything out there.

Alex from What's Your Spaghetti Policy Podcast joins us to discuss his campaign for issue #2 of Polar Destroyer! 

Synopisis:
The North Pole has been taken over by the Penguins. The Polar Bears have either been slaughtered or captured. Jack has been left for dead... or has he? The cliffhanger at the end of issue 1 shocked readers and left so many questions. What is the motive of the mysterious rescuer? Can he rebuild Jack? Can the penguins be stopped? What is their end game?

Polar Destroyer is the comic book series about Jack, the Polar Destroyer on his quest for revenge against the Penguin forces led by Oswalt and his crew of arctic soldiers. A mutinous uprising, led by the Penguins with their superior technology and nefarious experiments, succeeded at defeating Jack, or so it seems. Against all odds and from the brink of death, Jack must be rebuilt from the shadows to become a cybernetic killing machine fueled by rage and hell bent on revenge...a POLAR DESTROYER!

Written and created by Alex Osborne, this thrilling comic book series is a love letter to everything you loved about the 80's & 90's action movie and videogame genres! Pledge your support today and help Jack take back the North Pole.

WARNING THERE IS A 30 SECOND COUNTDOWN THAT STARTED WITHOUT MUSIC 

First, we’ll go over what we’ve been reading and watching, our beer of the week, some news, and then our Agatha predictions as the final two episodes are set to premier tomorrow night!v (Boy we were way wrong) 

 Finally, as our official main topic we will be discussing the weekend that was our Orlando adventures! We’re talking Fridays adventures at Magic Kingdom, Epcots drinking around the world, Saturdays tailgate and adventures, and then the whirlwind that was Jacksonville. It began as a fun tailgate, then got wild as an old man tried to fight Matt, then got hot, then wild as a random brewery patron tried to fight Matt, then ended with Matt passing out on Lauren’s couch and her Josh putting a blanket on him, taking his glasses off, and giving him a forehead kiss goodnight

WARNING THERE IS A 30 SECOND COUNTDOWN THAT STARTED WITHOUT MUSIC 

First, we’ll go over what we’ve been reading and watching, our beer of the week, some news, and then our Agatha predictions as the final two episodes are set to premier tomorrow night!v (Boy we were way wrong) 

 Finally, as our official main topic we will be discussing the weekend that was our Orlando adventures! We’re talking Fridays adventures at Magic Kingdom, Epcots drinking around the world, Saturdays tailgate and adventures, and then the whirlwind that was Jacksonville. It began as a fun tailgate, then got wild as an old man tried to fight Matt, then got hot, then wild as a random brewery patron tried to fight Matt, then ended with Matt passing out on Lauren’s couch and her Josh putting a blanket on him, taking his glasses off, and giving him a forehead kiss goodnight

When Andy starts at a new school out in the countryside, he accidentally discovers a haunted suit of armor and its ghostly keeper, Sir William. When Andy is attacked by the same mysterious creature that killed his adoptive parents’ biological son, Sir William and the suit help Andy defeat the monster — but the monster was conjured by someone, and they’ll stop at nothing to gain control of the armor. Issues 3 to 5 unravel the mystery of who that certain someone is and open up the world of Armored to bigger mysteries and further adventures! "
