Patrick St. Michel joins the Idolcast to discuss what's happening right now in J-Pop! We talk the Nene vs BMSG rap feud; STARTO's reboot; the Japan Music Awards, how much I love Cutie Street, and the biggest band on earth right now... Mrs. Green Apple!

Monia returns to continue our exploration of the Jossverse with a discussion on Firefly and Serenity and how they changed fan culture. It's a Gorram Shindig! A Big Damn Podcast.

Part two of my conversation with Monia, the Exiled Fan, on Angel the Series. We get into seasons 3-5, including a digression on the problems with "Lil Meow Meow" fans.

Monia, the Exiled Fan, returns for a discussion on Angel: The Series. This episode covers seasons one and two. We discuss the show, our reactions to it, and why people might dislike Joss Whedon's work. This is part one of a two part series.

Part 3 of my series on K-Pop's magnum opus: BigBang's MADE. This episode covers the years 2008-2010, including "Haru Haru," the breakthrough in Japan, and ending with the controversy surrounding "Heartbreaker."

Monia the Exiled Fan joins me to discuss modern fandom and the state of the industry, along with the life and tragic early death of Liam Payne.

Patrick returns to discuss two classic 1980s movies: "They All Laughed" and "Star 80." The common thread is the late Dorothy Stratten. We discuss her cinematic footprint, as well as her literary footprint in "The Killing of the Unicorn." Middle aged fantasy or true love?

I'm joined by Doom from The Nerd Blitz to discuss the 1980 sci-fi film "Galaxina." The movie starred the late Playboy Playmate Dorothy R. Stratten and we get into my theory that Playboy Playmates are about as close to idols as we ever got in America. Warning: We do get a bit spicy in our conversation in places so if discussion (and jokes) about sex and the female anatomy are not to your taste, you may want to either skip this one or have your finger on the fast forward button.

Part of the Buffy Rewatch Project with Monia the Exiled Fan. We get deep into our mixed feelings on Seasons 6 and 7.
