Earth-2.net Presents...

Ian and Dave bring their coverage of Dark Season to a close. In the second three-part story, the mysterious Miss Pendragon leads an archaeological dig on the school grounds which Marcie, Thomas, and Reet soon discover is really a plot to unearth an abandoned World War II computer project called The Behemoth. When The Behemoth awakens, Marcie finds herself in a final confrontation with Mr. Eldritch...

In a bit of catchup, We're Hep to It reacts to the Image announcements from ECCC, talk a lot about video games (including Fallout: New Vegas, Mass Effect Andromeda, and Persona 5), a bit of music, some Atomic Blonde, the wonderfulness of Mayday, and the not so wonderfulness of America (Chavez).

This week, Desmond and Duane highlight two under-appreciated horror gems form the early 1980s. First up, a farmer needs a special ingredient for his roadside fritters in Motel Hell. Then, a man works through his issues with the opposite sex in Pieces. Songs: "Lord, Don't Let Me Die in a Cheap Motel" by Banjo & Sullivan, "Motel Hell" and "1000 Cries Has the Night" by The Browns, and "Hell's Motel"...

Whether you know him as the dead Robin or The Red Hood, Jason Todd's impact on Batman lore will forever be felt. His murder helped shape Batman into the dark, brooding knight we still see today, while his resurrection opened old wounds. Today, we take a look at the death and life of Jason Todd! First, Dan and Mike discuss A Death in the Family, A Lonely Place of Dying, and Under the Hood. Then Jam...

Dan and Mike sit down to talk comics, specifically their experiences getting into the medium, falling out of it, then back in, their first storylines and collected editions, books they could never get into, and so much more.

This week, Dread Media gets topical. First off, Brian Yuzna's 1989 brilliant and gooey satire of the ruling class is never more relevant than it is today in Desmond and Darryll's review of Society. Then, women may often be viewed as sexual playthings by many men, but in Desmond and Duane's review of the Swiss folk horror film Sennentuntschi, we see that they are not to be toyed with. Fun fact abou...

The WWF invades The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth with In Your House: Canadian Stampede from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Widely regarded as one of the greatest PPVs in history, there is no surprise that the show holds up from top to bottom in the eyes of Kellen and Tom. What may surprise many, however, is that one of the hosts posits that the legendary main even of The Hart Foundation v Steve Austi...

Dan and Mike take an in depth look at The Trial of the Incredible Hulk, featuring Street Hawk's Rex Smith as Matt Murdock / Daredevil. Then they dive into the first two episodes of the Daredevil Netflix series, which just might be the best production to come out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

This week, the jobs are hellish on Dread Media. First off, Adam and Jeff join Desmond to see how an Egyptologist's Take Your Daughter to Work Day goes horribly wrong in Lucio Fulci's Manhattan Baby. Then, if there's a better example of corporations not caring about their employees' welfare, it's probably an example from reality and not the new horror film in Rich the Monster Movie Kid's review of...

After a brief but merry intro, Dan and Mike take a look at the animated version of The Power of the Daleks! (To hear their original thoughts, please listen to episode 18 of Bigger on the Inside.) Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/biggerontheinside.

Rumors of our demise have been fairly well-reasoned, but after a two-year hiatus Dropped D continues to roll forward with an episode we recorded back in 2015. Look, we've been busy winning championship titles all over the world. Also, Nine Inch Nails' Year Zero is a bad album, and we really didn't want to talk about it. That's why you get stories of Damien's wise uncle, roadside porn, and outdated...

Easter's coming, so let's get blasphemous! In true Dread Media fashion, we cover the gamut. First, Duane and Desmond review a modern theatrical horror film where everyone's favorite boy-wizard gets drunk, wakes up with a dead girlfriend, and horns sprout from his head in Horns. Then Rich the Monster Movie Kid takes a look at the ballyhooed classic The Devils. Then, Desmond goes solo on a micro-bud...

It's Dame O'Clock once again, as Hey, an Actor! profiles another English rose in the form of Dame Julie Andrews. With Ian overusing the phrase "one-two punch" and Pandy constantly forgetting the names of actresses the podcast has previously featured, The Brothers Wilson again review three films from their subject's repertoire. The hit 1979 comedy 10 improbably features both Flash Gordon and Will A...

After playing an extended opening theme and completely failing to deliver a coherent intro, Pandy and Christian rank the five most British and most American characters, along with their favorite fictional figures from neither the UK nor the US. (Note: Not recommended for Trump supporters or Brexiteers.)

After Captain Kirk vanishes into thin air, Spock's command skills are once more put to the test ("The Tholian Web"). Then, seemingly ageless people force Kirk, Spock, Uhura, and Nurse Chapel to humiliate themselves in grotesque ways ("Plato's Stepchildren"). Please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/edge

First: Hannah and Jim briefly drop into Mass Effect: Andromeda, Nier: Automata, the end of Divinity III, how Matt Kindt can do all these comics, and briefly reference a current comics thing. And second: What makes a good anime adaptation in live-action? Ghost in the Shell may come the closest, but it still misses the mark in terms of translating the philosophical soul of the original series. Donov...

After last week's epic undertaking, Dread Media kicks off the second 501 episodes with a back-to-basics two-review show. First, Desmond and Duane take in the satirical and bizarre Mexican Twilight Zone homage, The Similars (Los Parecidos). Then Devil Dinosaur Jr returns in a Stay Scary of a comic with a title so long, it will definitely make people who judge show-length based on show note-length t...

Wasn't there a Previews episode the show before last? Yes, yes there was. That one was rather late in the month, whereas this one is as early as possible. Enjoy.

This month, the guys finally get around to covering one of the most requested movies ever: The Spirit. It's a story of sexual frustration and bad lighting. As expected, they end up with egg on their face. Please visit http://tranquiltirades.wikia.com.

Will has seen 2017's Power Rangers and presents his thoughts after taking a few moments to talk about why the previous Power Rangers films might not have worked. This episode is probably not brought to you by Krispy Kreme.

Over the past 499 episodes, Desmond Reddick has spoken with some interesting guests and cohosts, but this week, to celebrate the 500th episode of Dread Media, he decided to talk to the people who make it all worthwhile: the listeners. Dreadites of three different countries (four if you count a background chime-in) get their voices heard this episode with a wide-ranging variety of topics. Songs pla...

Damien and Desmond talk wrestling. A lot. They needed a reason to bullshit regularly. Okay, another reason to bullshit regularly. So, why not go through the pay-per-views of ECW, the little wrestling promotion that could? See, Desmond is a lapsed fan whose final days were in the Attitude Era, and Damien is the fount of knowledge. That's the framework. This episode discusses the beginnings of Extre...

It might be coming late in the month, but it's Previews time!

Manbeast v Mantaur: In the real main event this week we have The Clash of the Century as these natural rivals lock horns. On the undercard we have the equally illustrious debuts of both Michael Cole and the latest gang in the wars, Ahmed attempts to cut a promo under the influence of surgical medication, Undertaker goes full on Batman, Paul Bearer calls him a goddamned murderer, we have Pokemon re...

Dave and Ian embark on what might be their most divisive show to date, Russell T. Davies' Dark Season. In the first three-episode story, the sinister Mr. Eldritch donates free computers to a local school and gives each child a computer to take home, free of charge. The only person not convinced of Mr. Eldritch's good intentions is pupil Marcie Hatter. Marcie, alongside her friends Reet and Thomas,...
