A vet-led podcast discussing military science fiction. We stopped editing out the cursing, but the general level of discussion is likely PG-13 for occasional juvenile crassness. Don't listen to us in church, you may burst into flames. PRPG, PR&PG, scifi, sci-fi
It may take another month or two, but we shall return... stronger, faster, mo better!
Capt PAPA-79 & Sgt ROOK-541 are lost on Ruggit V and must face off against a pair of vicious DogBunnies? Fluffy Grumpkins? Pugbit? Flophounds? Fanghare? DeathBunBuns? HoppityCrunches? Nate and his son Chief tell a rickety, silly tale, where Nate makes a bunch of Monty Python references that go over his son's head.
Beli, Doc Oats, and Nate...almost f*k it up... but here it is

DO NOT Listen to this without the movie! There is a lot of dead air and it will not make sense without the movie playing. Our first FOB Theater. NSFW content! Beli and Nate review the theatrical cut of 1986's ALIENS. Again there is no audio from the film, it's designed as an MST3K/Commentary track for the film. The ONLY external audio is the 20thFOX fanfare so you can sync it up to the movie. Alternatively, just press play at 25s into the recording.
SPOILERS!!!!!! Reaction, speculation, postulation. Do NOT listen if you want to go into IX blind. Lots of holy sh*t type cussing.
Started Stargate SG1 over again, was on in the background while working on some other stuff for the podcast and figured it deserved an AAR. Anchor is letting me put more in here, so we're gonna start having better show notes in-line and a new website. Synopsis: Pilot episode, where we are reintroduced to the events of the Stargate movie. MacGuiver becomes LtCol Jack "with two Ls" O'Neill. They had some solid USAF backing so they aren't horribly bad with inaccuracy. (Their salutes get better over time). Nate discusses the accuracies and issues he has, but overall - much love for SG1! There's plenty good to go over, but as always some bad and ugly. Also covered: How Nate would reshape the SG-teams around a more flexible 6-body core. "FuFu" is the word of the day. Also, if you listened to it in the first day, there were some errors that Nate goes back to address quickly (Called Apophis, Anubis and the Death Glider is a bit sketchy). The SG-Team x6-core Team Lead (LtCol/Maj minimum as we are dealing with on the spot strategic decisions that impact global relations) Team Ops (Maj/Capt) - In charge of security, posture Combat A (SNCO) - Light Gun, Scout, Linguistics Combat B (SNCO/NCO) - Heavy Weapons, Demolitions Medic/Corpsman (NCO/JrE) - G'doy. Folks are always getting hurt Science (Civ) - Gotta have the science: Terp, culturalist, archaeologist +1/2 for specific mission roles (More ass for a combat unit, more scientists for research teams, etc)
Took us forevah! But yes, here it is our discussion of SciFi Tech (specifically weapons) that have entered reality. Railguns, Rods from God, the 3rdArm, and.... ugh Kirk Fu! Also... some plugs: www.bluemilkspecial.com & www.heartwiredcomic.com and https://pulse.gallery
