Talking Battlestar Galactica on Nerd Outcast Podcast

What happens when you get an actor, an actress, a casting agent, a director, and a writer in the same room talking Battlestar Galactica?  You get this two hour long episode!  Host Chris Bashen's guests include returners Heather Ash, myself, and Matthew Amador.  His newcomers are fellow pod-caster Clint Worthington and Stage/TV actress Allison Tolman. Where did Ron Moore get his start in television?  What are the hallmarks of his writing? Is the remake superior to the original?  How is Adama as Commander?  Who is our least favorite character on the show?  We get carried away and talk forever on all of this and so much more.  Please listen and enjoy!

Talking Galaxy Quest on Nerd Outcast Podcast

Host Chris Bashen leads a rollicking discussion of the sci-fi comedy movie, Galaxy Quest.  My experts include returners Ryan Bond, Dominic Cianciolo, and newcomer Heather Ash (whom has an impressive writing resume to boot!)  Together, these noble experts fight off the hatred of my outcast, Andrew Kudla.

Actually, Andrew likes the movie too...actually, everybody really likes this movie.  How does Galaxy Quest pay homage to Star Trek?  Did William Shatner find it enjoyable?  Was Tony Shaloub high throughout the whole film?  And is Sam Rockwell bad in anything?  We discuss all of this and more on this science fiction episode!

Talking Star Trek II on Nerd Outcast Podcast

A podcast is a dish best served cold.  On this episode, host Chris Bashen's panel discusses what many consider to be the best Star Trek movie of them all, The Wrath of Khan!  Experts include Patrick Sweetman, Kitten McCreery, and newcomer Dominic Cianciolo.  Returning once again as our favorite Trek outcast is Mark Soloff.  Does this film hold up over thirty years later?  Do we like movie Kirk more than TV Kirk?  And do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few...or the one?  Listen and find out!
