Moreover, the very first Soapbox marks the return of [REDACTED]. Please visit http://www.patreon.com/earth_2.

Doctor, doctor! Gimme the news, we've got a medical horror themed episode for you! That's right. Covering the gamut of genre-based films about our fears of illness and death, for the first time Dread Media looks at medical-themed horror films. First up, Desmond and Darryll take a long look at the misguided-but-compelling medical conspiracy thriller Coma. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. Stays Scary when he...

In what had been long-requested and -dreaded, James and Damien finally tackle Godzilla (1998), the tale of an ugly, speedy lizard and the incompetent group of humans on a quest to find it, feed it lots of fish, and destroy every building near it. It's a movie so fixated on cutesy comedy that it forgets to be anything resembling fun or dramatic, featuring the cast of The Simpsons and perhaps the wo...

After a brief break, For Better or Worse returns with a look at A Knight's Tale! Shana revels in Paul Bettany's glory, Mike has trouble pronouncing "Canterbury," and living next to a bar inadvertently spoils a World Cup match for the husband.

This week, Dread Media rocks once again as we present two interviews by author David Agranoff from BizarroCon 2014. The first interview is with MP Johnson (www.freaktension.wordpress.com). The second interview is with Ross E Lockheart (www.haresrocklots.com). Both of these guys rock. And so does David Agranoff (www.davidagranoff.blogspot.com). If that wasn't enough rock for you, Duane joins Desmon...

Captain Kirk is faced with two more godlike beings, one of whom is his oldest, dearest friend ("Where No Man Has Gone Before"). Following that, The Enterprise nearly crashes to its doom once the crew loses all sense of self-control ("The Naked Time"). Also, Dan stuns Mike speechless when he reveals exactly how long it will take to cover every Star Trek television program and movie, Mike pieces tog...

This month, the subject of Hey, an Actor! is an actress with less than 20 years experience in the movie game: Amy Adams. Why did the Brothers Wilson think her worthy of selection? Because they've now seen the quirky indie film Junebug, Oscar-worthy biopic The Fighter, and meta-Disney film Enchanted. In addition to their look at their subject's career, Ian and Pandy find time to speak about Christi...

Ian and Dave return for three more episodes of The Middleman. In "The Manicoid Teleportation Conundrum," Aliens living on Earth are being kidnapped and Wendy's break-up video becomes an Internet sensation. In "The Flying Fish Zombifaction," Wendy and The Middleman must find out who is creating zombies that crave trout. And in "The Boy-Band Superfan Interrogation," The Middleman must choose between...

Will and Hannah are celebrating episode 71 of Big Damn Heroes with a mighty fine shindig! In this episode, they take a look at the second version of the pilot, creative ways to stretch your budget, how to effectively character- and world-build, River as a plot device, the continued fuckery of the airing order, and one of The Heroes' favorite episodes of the series. Join them for "The Train Job," "...

The Commonwealth Crew has returned after a long absence to cap off a week discussing the major British horror studios of the 1970s with a double-sized episode follow-up to the last British horror comic-themed anthology they watched: Vault of Horror! Censorship, neat freaks, pre-Doctor Who Tom Baker, and differing views on Imperialism are among the multitude of things discussed as these two go deep...

What Hey, Gurlfriend looks at its first video game as Will and Hannah take a glance back at the Kingdom Hearts franchise. Join them as they try to make sense of an increasingly complex plot, discuss the highlights and lowlights of the series, and look towards its future. All this and a bit of shipping.

Blimey! Get British with us once again as Dread Media pays tribute to titans of British horror. First up, Desmond and Darryll worship at the altar of Ingrid Pitt in Hammer's Countess Dracula. Then Devil Dinosaur Jr. gives us a Stay Scary segment on the BBC horror comedy series Dr. Terrible's House of Horrible. Make sure to check in later this week for a special Amicus-related Dread Reel-ief! There...

The endgame begins as Kellen and James review the penultimate set of Gundam SEED episodes: "Trembling World," "Lacus Strikes," "What Stands in the Way," "Spiral of Encounters," and "The Opening Door."

What started as a Facebook discussion over a comic book convention's new, controversial pricing model led to this segment where Dan and Wendee, along with Hannah and Will, talk about the pros, cons, and future of said pricing structure. Please visit http://www.patreon.com/earth_2.

This week, Desmond is proud to bring you an interview with one of his heroes. Alan Robert is the bass player and principle songwriter of Life of Agony and the writer / artist of three awesome horror comic series from IDW: Wire Hangers (www.wirehangerscomic.com), Crawl to Me (www.crawltomecomic.com), and Killogy (www.killogycomic.com). Alan stops by to talk touring with Life of Agony again, a Killo...

Earth-2.net's long-awaited Star Trek podcast has taken flight! Kicking off the Captain Kirk-era of the franchise, a salt-sucking alien disguises itself as an old flame of Dr. McCoy and wreaks havoc upon The Enterprise ("The Man Trap"), then a young man with impossible powers finds it increasingly difficult to deal with life amongst other humans ("Charlie X"). Wrapping up the debut episode of The E...

While Dragonball Evolution certainly isn't the worst movie your heroic hosts have ever reviewed, it is probably the laziest adaptation of a source material ever seen to this point. Join them as they tell the tale of a spiky-haired kid and a Jim Carrey cosplayer embarking on the world's fastest Easter Egg hunt. This is the part when we note that this podcast is longer than the movie. Please visit h...

When he was 14, Brave New World opened Dan's horizons to include philosophical arguments about the cruelty of dehumanization. Also, the book had boobs in it. With that in mind, he and Wendee discuss the themes behind this book, occasionally lapsing into Foghorn Leghorn impressions. (It was late. They were tired.)

Take their love, take their land, take them where they cannot stand, Will and Hannah don't care, they're still free, and they're starting Firefly. Alright, so that doesn't quite rhyme like they hoped, but it's still true. In covering the opening story ("Serenity"), Will and Hannah introduce us to the characters they'll come to know and love, recognize some patterns pretty early on, and discuss som...

Mike reads through the June Previews, and quickly forgets how to pronounce "concrete." He also has something to say about Krang's new exo-suit. Please visit http://www.patreon.com/earth_2.

Great beasts awaken from their slumber underneath the ocean all up in this episode! First, the second interview with contributors to A Mythos Grimmly: A Lovecraftian Fairy Tale Anthology features Christine Morgan, Peter Rawlik, and Mary Sangiovanni. Then, Desmond and Darryll look at Godzilla. There's gargantuan tunes as well: "Children's Story" by Tom Waits, "The Sleeper Awakens" by Dead Again, "G...

The heat is on as Kellen and James return to Gundam SEED with the episodes "In The Name of Justice," "Divine Thunder," "Decisive Fire," "Athrun," and "Into the Dawn Skies." In addition, the duo take a little time to discuss possibly the biggest anime news in years: the relicensing of Sailor Moon.

The Boys Outta Brooklyn are back after a long lay-up, as Tom gives his views on the Veronica Mars movie, and he and Derrick discuss the impact of its surprise success. Plus, Derrick pervs on Tom's college girlfriend and throws him a challenge, and a discussion of why actors are compelled to take on less-than-appealing projects. We used to podcast a long time ago, so get to clicking! (And don't for...

In this edition of For Better or Worse, Shana and Mike take a look at the Steve Martin / Daryl Hannah outing Roxanne, which itself is an adaptation of Cyrano de Bergerac. The Brothers Wilson also stop by. One auditions for Twister II: Son of Twister, while the other transmits a list of curse words which The Wedded Couple aren't sure are real.

Desmond is on strike at work, but that hasn't slowed Dread Media down. In this huge episode, Desmond interviews the directors of the recently released remake of their earlier student film, All Cheerleaders Die: Lucky McKee and Chris Sivertson. Then, Devil Dinosaur Jr. gives us a Stay Scary on Lucky Mckee's Masters of Horror episode: "Sick Girl." Then, there's another interview featuring Jeremy Hoc...
