Space, the final frontier. Is there a more iconic opening in TV history? (Debate amongst yourselves). For millions of people, those words became comfort food on weekends, then led to a movie (!!) with the biggest budget since ‘Cleopatra’ (!!), five more with that cast, and damn near 10 more TV series and more big-screen adventures. From a show that struggled and was too ambitious for the time, to decades of activity and revenue, Star Trek has been the gift that’s kept on giving for 60 years now.It would be illogical for us to ignore that landmark, and any excuse to talk Trek is ok with us, so here’s our little tribute to the 5 Year Mission. It’s tough to cover everything, but we do our best. Pour yourself a glass of tranya and colour some melon balls with food dye; it’s gonna be an important Trek#startrek #podcast #podstallions Visit the Plaid Stallions shop to help support this channel:plaidstallions.com/reboot/shopPod Stallions Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/podstallions Topics Discussed: Filmation, Lou Scheimer, Gene Roddenberry, Shatner, Ben Cooper, Mego, Buffalo 29, Wrath of Khan, Happy Meals, McDonald's, Star Trek 3, Ertl, Kruge, TNG, Dune, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek V, AMT, Model Kits, Khan, Gene Roddenberry, Lou Scheimer, Flash Gordon, Transporter, action figures, Plaid Stallions, Pod Stallions,

Pod Stallions is back ....in Pog form April, 2006 was a momentous time on the interwebs, for it was the birth-time of the legendary Plaid Stallions. Brought to life by a man determined to find use out of the many catalog pages he’d acquired, it quickly became an invaluable resource for toy reference and fashion giggles. It’s since expanded its borders with a podcast, action figure releases, a toy magazine and soon it’s own cologne in a Brick Mantooth bust bottle. We might be a tad late to the birthday party, but we honour its 20th trip round the sun in a brand new (!!) episode. There’s a saying, ‘you’re as young as you feel’, and if that’s true than Plaid Stallions is still just a pre-teen, excited by all the best pop culture from the best decades. And trying to get the Spectrum channel to unscramble every Friday night. Happy B-Day, PS #podstallions #plaidstallions

‘We live in a List-Making Culture, between awards shows and ‘Best Ever’ specials and The 500 Greatest Albums ever, face it, we love making lists. To show that even we aren’t immune, we kept it simple for Pt 2 of our Halloween ‘25 episode: The Five Must-Watch Movies Every Halloween. We have very different, very colorful lists, which leads to more spirited conversation. We watch a ton of scary flicks this time of year, but these always make the grade each year. Prepare to screen them all and update your Letterbox lists, its Pod Stallions Top Five for Halloween!” #podcast #podstallions #halloween3

There are Giants, and there are behemoths and monsters galore, but there’s only ONE King Kong. Well, technically, there’s one that’s been done and recycled in various ways, and as episode one for October ‘25 we celebrate the biggest ape of all. A misunderstood creature who basically likes the ladies and wants to be left alone, Kong has loomed large since first leaving Skull Island in 1933, and we cover all the sequels, remakes, Kaiju and cartoon versions in the newest Pod Stallions. Enjoy our tribute to the 8th Wonder of the World, the King called Kong! Pod Stallions Facebook Group It's a treehouse filled with grown-ups.

We know what you’re thinking. With a headline like that, we’re bound to be Who-bashing all episode, right? (You might also be thinking, ‘bout time they showed up!). Au contraire, my friends. Doctor Who is one of the many things that brought us together as friends, and is something we love deeply. With recent news reports and all the online chatter about the current state of New Who (still considered ‘new’ after a 20-year return!) and its possible exit, it felt like a good time and good subject to explore on our return from hiatus. So close the door, hit the Tardis controls from ‘Way Back’ to ‘Present Day’ and prepare to walk in eternity as we give our two pence on all that’s gone down and up with everyone’s favourite Time Lord. Just remember to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow before you leave..... #podstallions #doctorwho #plaidstallions

Back bacon. RUSH. Toques. William frigging Shatner. These are just a handful of the many gifts Canada has given the world. And dang it, they know a thing or two about makin’ movies, too. It’s high time PS celebrated them in an episode, especially since one 1/2 of us claim to be Canadian! (Note: the jury is still oot). And who better to help than our monstrously cool pal Matt Weinhold, Actor/comedian/cinephile/Monster Party Co-host and all-around good egg? All three of us sing our lists of cinematic gold from the Great White North, from comedies to horror to thrillers and beyond. Take off with us, won’t you? (Apologies, that was too easy but obligatory) Topics discussed, The Starlost, SCTV, Strange Brew, Starlog, Black Christmas, The Neptune Factor, Rock and Rule, Nelvana, Ginger Snaps, Starship Invasions, Tucker and Dale Vs Evil, The Changling, monster party, Matt Weinhold, Jason Lenzi, David Cronenberg, Shivers, Scanners, Seeing Things, Canadian TV, Pod Stallions, Pod Cast, Keir Dullea, The Corpse Eaters, Pontypool, Hard Core Logo,

Never let it be said that horror kids can't be romantic and have a soft spot for the psychotic underdog, because following up on our Werewolves October ep comes Famous Phantoms of Filmdom. You know what we mean, from Opera to the Paradise, we cover all the ways the original story has 'bled' into other adaptations and pop culture. So grab your favorite opera mask, throw on a cape and settle in for PS's 2nd October eps all about Phantom menaces. (See what we did there? Note: we won't be covering The Phantom Menace. Or Phantom Power by Super Furry Animals, there's only so much time). PS- We know, we forgot Darkman, all Brian's fault and we'll get to it.

The Elephant Man, Frank Booth, Agent Cooper and Bob, Sailor and Lula and the big sweaty Baron with bad skin. These are just some of the denizens in the film world of David Lynch. It’s safe to say the works of Lynch weren’t everyone’s cup of coffee. And that’s as it should be, with most left-of-center output. But his impact can’t be denied, and as weirdos and movie freaks ourselves, it seemed appropriate to celebrate the late auteur. (Plus, the man himself is someone we’d happily spend time with). But don’t think this is the snooty, art-house ep of PS; we still manage to get Richard Lynch and 80s underwater monster flicks in, too. The owls are not what they seem, but this is a fine cup of Pod Stallions. Drink full and descend!

The moon is full, there's a howling wind, and like a couple of dummies we've decided to stay ON the moors, so the scene is set for some werewolf celebrations. On the Mt. Rushmore of monsters, the werewolf/Wolf Man is a sad, sexy, misunderstood beast who's overdue for some Pod Stallions love. From Groovy Ghoulies to Henry Hull, stopping off at Howlings, Twilights and Zevon, we cover all the beasts of burden in our fang-tastic new episode. Werewolf? THERE wolf!

What 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. With the new Alien: Romulus currently face-hugging the public in a retro way, we thought we'd cover the good, the bad and the Italian (yes, we get to the ALIEN rip-offs!) in our latest convo. Everyone can hear you scream in cyberspace from listening to the ALIEN-ating new episode of Pod Stallions!

Pod Stallions 120: Collector Culture So, you say you're a collector, eh? Well, that's a loaded descriptive these days, could mean just about anything! From bottle caps to vinyl records, toy soldiers and model kits, seems these days just about everyone collects something. But what does the modern collecting/fandom world look like? Luckily the Woodstein of pop culture podcasters are on the case and hopefully will provide some answers. Please sit back and tuck into our spirited chat about our lifetime of acquiring treasures (er, um, ya know, collecting) Topics Discussed: Mego, Action figures, comic book stores, record store clerks, Doctor Who, Starlog magazine, diecast cars, hockey cards, toy collecting, social media, reproductions, comedy podcast, podstallions, plaidstallions podcast, Jason Lenzi, brick mantooth,

Life 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 dependability in the latest Pod Stallions. We, um, also manage to squeeze in commercials featuring Doctor Who actors, Lifeforce, and the cinematic oeuvre of Steve Railsback. It'll all make sense. Enjoy.

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!

Pod Stallions 116: Burger King Onion Ring Fireside Chat 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 another fine episode of 'What We've Been Watching!' on Pod Stallions. Hope it helps!
