After numerous technical difficulties and delays, Podcapers is back with a brand new episode! This week, Scott interviews indie comic creator Dean Page about his two comics, Cosmo Natalya and The Return of Jake Sunrise. While also waffling on about Douglas Adams.

Star Wars Visions is back and better than ever! In the wake of increasingly disappointing Star Wars news, Scott really needed a pick me up from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Thankfully AP2HYC writer Michael Dobbinson is here to discuss the highs and...well there aren't that many lows in this season tbh.

There's a whole lotta love for the new Dungeons and Dragons movie. But can it win over two long time D&D players? Scott is joined by Jillian Diblasio to talk about the fantasy heist movie and the various Nat 20's and Nat 1's therein.

What happens when a sexist and heteronormative space program launches a bunch of women and non-binary people into space? A great comedy audio drama is born! Scott is joined by the co-creators Lauren Anderson and Meegan May to talk about the inspiration behind this very funny series, their process for making it, and how the Little Mermaid is an inspiration for redheads everywhere simply by dint of being a redhead.Listen and Subscribe on all good podcast apps!Edited by Alexandra MirabalTimecode:News - 05:56 - 16:51How Did This All Start?, Women in Service, and Sound Design - 20:00Twists, the Medium, and Reception - 1:00:00
Well we HAD to! In the wake of the overwhelming negative backlash this reimagining of Scooby-Doo received, Scott is joined by Archit Tripathi to talk about the first two episodes.

Look out She-Ra, there's a new Queer animated show in town! Scott is joined by Dragon Age aficionado and cosplayer extraordinaire Kit "PuddyGeeks" Brunton to talk about Netflix's new show set in BioWare's video game universe.

Insert "Still better than Rise of Skywalker" joke here. In all seriousness, this is a good show. Perhaps a bit flawed, but even that can be quite interesting. At least, it's interesting to Scott and Francisco Andrande! They're gonna discuss the pitfalls and high points of Cassian Andor's journey to Rogue One, all while trying (and failing) to not mention The Book of Boba Fett.Edited by Alexandra MirabalTimecode:News: 3:34-15:11Expectations, the world, and action: 20:00Subtle Disney Exclusion, antagonists, and character growth: 40:00Side characters, rebellion, and final thoughts: 1:00:00
With the chaos of the past Halloween specials behind him, Scott settles down with Alex Mirabal and Jillian Diblasio to watch a spooky season staple that he's never seen before...Hocus Pocus. Yes, really. Will this classic bit of 90's Disney fun win Scott over? Or will it be equally as traumatising as getting hounded by extradimensional supervillians? Edited by Alexandra MirabalTimecode:Movie start: 05:29
Time for a proper geekabout! Scott is joined this week by Mark Adams of Hellbound Media to talk about their new kickstarter, but in typical Podcapers fashion they end up talking about some random nonsense instead. Topics include Counsellor Troi, inaccurate Keanu Reeves movies, and fracking.

Take a drag on your cigarette, order a steak with an egg on top, and straighten your fedora because we're going back to the 1940's! But not necessarily the 40's you remember. Scott is joined by comic writer Tony James to talk about the Kickstarter for his newest comic, Star Noir.

Dream a little dream of me. The Sandman is finally here! And Scott is joined by not one, but TWO fans of the original comic to talk about it.

Space Vikings Y'all! Thor is back and is...better than ever? Not really. This film is a bit of a mess.

After years of fan demands we finally have a Kenobi series! And it's...fine? Okay, there's a lot to unpack here.

Now Scott and his AP2HYC colleagues find themselves in a race across the multiverse to stop this evil villain once and for all. But with enemies closing in on all sides, a rift has formed between Scott and his friends. Will they triumph and save reality as we know it, or will our worst nightmares come to pass?

Jinkies! It's spooky season, which means now's a great time to watch a bad movie. Sadly though, it must be a bad Scooby-Doo movie, because the early 2000's liked to punish us for having nostalgia.

Crikey, that's a long title! It's a jam packed episode this week Capers! Scott is joined once again by Francisco Andrade to talk about not one but TWO topics. This episode was just going to be about Venom 2: Let There Be A Mild Kerfuffle, but DC, rather rudely, released all these cool teasers and trailers this weekend. So Scott had no choice but to talk about both. Either that or spend a whole episode talking about Venom, and honestly who wants that?

What if...Marvel had a GOOD animated show for once? Just saying, it's been a while. I think Spectacular Spider-Man was probably the last one. Oh no, wait, forgot about Avengers: Earths Mightiest Heroes. Ooh, and M.O.D.O.K.! Yeah, it's stop-motion but it still counts. What were we talking about? Oh yeah, What If...?. Scott's joined by Francisco Andrade to delight in the weird and wonderful world of The Watcher and all the universe's he observes. Which is a little creepy frankly.

A great show based on Scott's favourite graphic novel? Wow! Is there anything that could make Scott's day even better? How about talking with the showrunner Eliza Clark? Yep, that'll do it!

The kawaii is strong with this one! Scott is joined this week by the same guy he always goes to whenever anime comes up on this show, Mark Russell, to talk about Star Wars: Visions! And let me tell you, it's a goddamn wild ride from start to finish. I don't even know how to describe it frankly.

200 episodes. What a wild ride! To celebrate, Scott is joined by two people who have helped make Podcapers grow and develop, Alex Mirabal and Mark Russell, to read the truly atrocious script for the Powerpuff Girls live action pilot.

Let's celebrate the release of a great Suicide Squad movie by looking back at a terrible Suicide Squad movie! What can I say, we're kinda masochistic here on Podcapers.

Alex isn't in this episode? Wow. Okay. Who is? Francisco Andrade? Alright then. They talk about the highs and- I'm sorry, it's just weird not having Alex in a DC related episode.

Scott is joined once again by writer and artist Lyndon White to talk about the Kickstarter for his much anticipated graphic novel, Candles. At least, that's what they were SUPPOSED to talk about.

Faster than a speeding hormone! More angsty than a Draco/Harry fanfic! It's...Super Teen™! Okay, the show is actually better than that. Like, WAY better. Scott, himself a pretty big fan of the comic, is joined by Invincible super-fan Andy Clift for one of the least pretentious deconstructions of the superhero genre ever! As in, the TV show Invincible.

Despite refusing to review this movie until it came out of premier access, Scott has bowed to pressure and decided to give Disney's latest animated film a shot. And he immediately regretted it. Joining him on this journey of disappointment and shame is Mark Russell, because at this point no one else is willing to do anything Disney related with Scott for fear of going deaf from his screams of rage.

As hate crimes against Asian people in both the US and the UK continue to grow, Scott is once again joined by Archit Tripathi to talk about the systemic bigotry in our society that has led us to this point. Furthermore, they discuss the many great superhero characters both from all corners of Asia and of Asian descent that deserve recognition and respect, just like the Asian community. These characters teach us to stand up for what's right and to unite against hatred and racism, a lesson that is truly worth learning. "Be kind whenever possible.

As part of Scott's quest to dive deeper into the murky waters of fandom, he's joined by Jillian Diblasio and Mark Russell to talk about...*sigh*...shipping. Yeah, yeah, make your jokes, but give us a break! In the future, this is what scholars will be doing their dissertations on!

From the Lower East Side of Manhattan to the hearts and minds of millions around the world, Jack Kirby very much earned the title of "King". But his was not an easy journey.
