No podcast this week due to the our need to have “lives” (sorry). We’re busy with summer plans, careers and producing high quality video content for Dragon*ConTV and ManaNation. We’ll be back next week to talk about the new Hulk movie, Dragon*Con and a new term to replace “jump the shark” in our nerd vocabulary.
So take the half hour you’d normally spend with WhatTheCast and use it to promote our 5th party candidate in the 2008 US Presidential election … Mitt Zombie.

Brian, Crispy, Patrick and Stephen gather together to talk about Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull … is it worthy of the Indy franchise, or closer to Howard the Duck?
The cast also talks about Dollhouse, Smallville, Caprica, “backdoor pilots”, the nearly-dead CW network and starting a “save the show” campaign before a show even gets on the air.
