Tom, Brian, and Amos wrap up their Get Smart watch with The Nude Bomb, a movie that leaves much of the original series behind but delivers practical stunts, ridiculous gadgets, and an extended detour through vintage Universal Studios. Brian finds unexpected charm—and plenty of parallels to Austin Powers—while Tom thinks a tighter edit would help considerably. Amos goes in blind and comes away entertained, as the discussion explores how a poorly reviewed movie can still be a surprisingly good time.Next week: Battlestar Galactica (101 - "Saga of a Star World")Subscribe, get expanded show notes, and past episodes at http://Cordkillers.comSupport Cordkillers at http://Patreon.com/CordkillersYouTube: https://youtu.be/r0qTK9yid7k Hosted on Acast.

When it comes time to have a good ol' fashioned argument, nothing gets the blood boiling like starting up the Greatest of All Time discussion. Fur will fly, spit will be spat, and more than likely someone is going to get into a drunken brawl on their grandmother's front lawn with the cops getting called to eventually haul some pantless degenerate off to jail for the tenth time that year. Or, as I like to call it, Saturday at a certain HOA just outside of Chicago. At any rate, we're going to throw out our lists and hope for the best in this, episode 262, The Pantheon of Pro Wrestling!

What are the greatest science fiction spaceships of all time?
The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
From September 10, 2007. Hosted by: Fraser Cain (@frasercain) and Dr. Pamela L. Gay (@CosmoQuest) This is a very different episode of Astronomy Cast. As we mentioned last week, Pamela recently attended the Dragon*Con science fiction convention in Atlanta, Georgia. While she was there, she participated in a special live edition of Astronomy Cast with special guest Dr. Kevin Frazier. Kevin is a NASA scientist, and the science consultant for the TV shows Battlestar Galactica and Eureka. He and Pamela work through physics and astronomy in popular science fiction. What they get right, and what they get wrong... so very wrong. Role of Science Consultants in Media: Dr. Grazier shares insights into his work as a science consultant, emphasizing the importance of scientific accuracy in storytelling and how it enhances narrative credibility. Analysis of Battlestar Galactica and Eureka: The conversation explores specific examples from these series, highlighting where scientific principles are accurately depicted and where creative liberties are taken. Common Misconceptions in Sci-Fi: They address prevalent scientific inaccuracies in science fiction, such as sound in space and unrealistic space travel mechanics, and discuss their impact on public understanding of science. Balancing Science and Storytelling: The discussion delves into the challenges writers face in integrating complex scientific concepts into engaging narratives without overwhelming the audience. Audience Interaction: Recorded live at Dragon*Con, the episode features questions from the audience, providing additional perspectives and inquiries about science in media.

We go from last week's episode where Starbuck is suspiciously non-existent, to this week....where it's all Kara Thrace all the time! And she is a hot frakkin' mess y'all. Katee talks about how frustrating it was to play Starbuck in this storyline, where she is constantly failing and being torn to pieces by Kat of all people...I have never watched my performance in Battlestar Galactica.. until now.

This week, we're scratching The Itch to get cinematic! Our guest, Bear McCreary, is the man responsible for scores of scores for films, shows, and games. He created music for The Walking Dead, Battlestar Galactica, Black Sails, Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, God of War, and literally 100 other projects. And somewhere in all that work, he also found time to assemble an all-star team of collaborators for his own metal albums, 2024's The Singularity and this year's The Singularity: Ekleipsis. The list of rock and metal royalty he's worked with includes Joe Duplantier of Gojira, Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy, Claudio Sanchez of Coheed and Cambria, Slash, Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Stewart Copeland of The Police... and those are just a few from the new album! We had a blast talking with Bear about his successes and failures, his pinch-me moments, his favorite movie trailers, and just how he manages to balance family life and the creative projects he's constantly challenging himself with. He's full of insight, introspection, and great stories. You're gonna dig this one. Enjoy. Listen to The Itch Rock Radio Show Rock with us every Sunday night from 6-9pm CST on KCLC-FM in St. Louis.

"Bitte nicht zu viel herum-nerden!" wünsche ich mir zu Beginn der heutigen BKG-Episode und getreu dieses strikten Mottos haben Britt-Marie und ich es tatsächlich mal wieder geschafft, ein Recap-Gespräch in unter 90 Minuten einzutüten. Diese Leistung ist allein deswegen nicht zu verachten, da Britt-Marie und ich uns gerne in Themen verlieren, die nichts mit BATTLESTAR GALACTICA zu tun haben, aber auch, weil "Die Supernova" genug Drama, Action und Mythologie für einen Dreiteiler böte. Spoiler: Am Ende des Tages – und dieser Folge – ist jedenfalls ein ganzes Sonnensystem futsch, Baby Hera und Baltar sind wieder an Bord der Galactica, D'Anna (Lucy Lawless) wird endgültig eingesargt und es gibt mindestens zwei schallende Backpfeifen. Autsch!
"Black Market" is allegedly the worst episode of Battlestar Galactica across all 4 seasons, according to the internet. Katee and Robin have thoughts on this, as well as one major overarching question...Why the hell isn't Kara Thrace in this episode!?I have never watched my performance in Battlestar Galactica.. until now.

Jon talks with Karen and James from Dragon Con’s Military Sci-Fi Media track to talk about what the track is really about. Military Sci-Fi Media started as a Stargate track and grew into a broader home for TV and media properties that mix space and military influence. We discuss the shows and franchises that are part of the track including: Stargate, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, Farscape, Firefly, Space 1999, Space Above and Beyond, Halo, and others that Jon just thinks are in the track, We highlight some of their special events including: the MSFM auction and charity work, the intergalactic military shindig, the MSFM Festivus panel, the Firefly and Zoe Washburne deep dives, and the remembering-Gil-Gerard panel Track links and resources: militaryscifi@dragoncon.org · Military Sci-Fi Media Facebook · Dragon Con tracks page Leave us a voicemail: (813) 321-0884Shop The Unique GeekSuggest a 50 Days Podcast Idea Be sure to check out our Facebook social media thingies.

We've had an Epiphany...you should watch BSG with us, cause it's frakking great! The last few episodes tackled some really heavy subject matter shown through the treatment of Cylon prisoners in the fleet. This week, the Battlestar creators lighten the mood with some fun debate about aborting a Cylon/Human hybrid baby....
Some would say that sometimes it's better just not to know. That someone is not me so I have compiled a bunch of your questions and have answered them as best I can. Ask Me Anything...
Vera Wylde and Jessie Gender venture out on the Battlestar Galactica and take in the entire voyage one episode at a time. Season 4, Islanded in a Stream of Stars - The show gives us a classic "get everything in place for the finale" episode, and removes what had made Vera interested in Boomer again while it's at it.
Apollo free floating in space, Starbuck on the assassination path, and Adama and Roslin's relationship makes Katee Sackhoff cry...hard. Tricia Helfer is back on the couch with us to complete the BSG Pegasus Trilogy of episodes, and we get to see her evolve her character(s) into territory we haven't seen from her before on the show.Please help Michael Hogan get his well deserved place on the Canadian Walk of Fame!

Welcome to TBC 26 FM, the post-apocalyptic radio station broadcasting from the wasteland of late modern America. James McGrath — the Religion Prof himself — was the right guest for the apocalyptic-themed Theology Beer Camp preview, because he wrote Theology and Science Fiction, he loves some Battlestar Galactica, and he spent a full year of sabbatical thinking about nothing but the New Testament's best apocalyptic preacher. We got the post-apocalyptic factions workshopped (James thinks the sorting needs a Hunger Games battle), then we went where the actual apocalypse lives: what John the Baptist was actually preaching in Second Temple Judaism, why apocalyptic literature always gets the end wrong and why that is a feature rather than a bug, why American Christians reading Revelation as horror instead of hope says everything about which side of the ledger we are on, what AI actually is under the hood and what it does to the way we read scripture, how James teaches a course called The Bible and Misinformation by fooling his own students on day one with AI-generated footage of himself announcing the discovery of the Ark of the Covenant, and — the part that will stay with me — what he says to the person whose evangelical faith is collapsing and who wrote me terrified. James's answer: that thing you thought was faith was actually doubt. Come for the Andor riff. Stay for the pastoral turn. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube JOIN OUR OPEN ONLINE CLASS: The Empire Christ Couldn't Keep Ever notice how Christian nationalism gets talked about like it's some bizarre new glitch in the faith? It isn't — it's a 2,000-year-old arrangement wearing new clothes, and once you see how the pattern works, you can also spot the Christ who keeps slipping free of it. Join theologian Joerg Rieger and Tripp Fuller for The Christ Empire Couldn't Keep, a free six-week online class tracing the holy alliances, imperial creeds, and stubborn resistance that have shaped Christianity from Paul to the present. You'll get six lectures from Joerg, six live Q&As, weekly readings from his book Christ and Empire, and a community of fellow troublemakers thinking it through together. It's free to join, every session is recorded, and it kicks off Thursday, August 27. Grab your spot at HomebrewedClasses.com. This podcast is a Homebrewed Christianity production.

In the latest episode of the State of the Arts podcast (@sotapod), filmmaker and writer Des Doyle sits down with acclaimed television writer, producer, and co-creator of The Big Bang Theory, Bill Prady, for a detailed chat about his new show Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, getting a second shot at a pilot, and a shared passion for comic artwork. Produced in partnership with Film Ireland and supported by Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland through the Screen Stakeholders Funding Scheme, the State of the Arts series explores the creative processes, industry challenges, and new opportunities that both Irish and international creatives face in today's ever-evolving artistic landscapes.During this conversation, Bill reflects on leaving his day job as a computer programmer, fondly recalls his work with Muppets creator Jim Henson and shares skills he developed along the way – ultimately leading to the co-creation of The Big Bang Theory.

This followed a brief career as a computer programmer and partner in a software company.Working with Jim Henson, Prady wrote a wide variety of projects, the last being The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson, a posthumous tribute to the late puppeteer, for which he received one of his five Emmy nominations. Following his work with Henson, Prady wrote for a number of television comedy and drama series. His first produced episode of series television was an episode of Married... with Children in 1991; his first staff writing job was on the HBO series Dream On in 1995.In 1997, he joined the writing staff of Dharma & Greg, rising to executive producer and taking over as "showrunner" in 2001. In 2007, Prady co-created the hit CBS series The Big Bang Theory with television veteran Chuck Lorre. He served as an executive producer of that series until its finale in May 2019. He is now co-creator and executive producer of The Big Bang Theory spinoff Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, currently streaming on HBO Max. In addition to his Emmy nominations, Prady has received two Writers' Guild awards, a CableACE Award, and eleven People's Choice Awards for his work as both a writer and producer. He has also been nominated for two additional Writers' Guild awards and five Golden Globe Awards. For his work with NASA (a storyline on Big Bang promoting space exploration), Prady was awarded the Agency's Exceptional Public Achievement Medal, NASA's third-highest civilian honor. He is a graduate of the Cranbrook School in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, and attended Wayne State University in Detroit. In the spring of 2022, he was awarded an honorary doctorate from Wayne State.Des DoyleDes is a D.I.T. graduate who spent 15 years working in the Camera Department before moving into directing.

Moore (Outlander, Battlestar Galactica) and Bill Prady (The Big Bang Theory) amongst others.

If you know the name Bear McCreary, it's probably from the goosebumps he's given you without you even knowing it was him. You may know his work from Battlestar Galactica, The Walking Dead, God of War, and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. He's one of the most prolific composers working today, and on July 31st, he's releasing Singularity: Ekleipsis, his second metal album. He sat down with us to talk about creating something that is his own art. We dug into how neither of us comes from a metal background and what that means for the music he is creating. He drops some great recommendations of things to listen to in order to find your way into the genre. The album itself is brilliant from top to bottom. Bear McCreary discusses how this was, in his opinion, more finely tuned than the first, but both albums have been on constant repeat for me lately. About Bear McCreary and Singularity: Ekleipsis Award-winning composer and recording artist Bear McCreary began his career as a protégé of legendary film composer Elmer Bernstein, before bursting onto the scene scoring the revered series Battlestar Galactica in 2004. Since then, McCreary has won three Emmy Awards, including two for Disney's Percy Jackson and the Olympians and one for his theme for Da Vinci's Demons, a musical palindrome, and has won twelve International Film Music Critics Association Awards, including the award for Score of the Year in 2024, his second. Named the 23rd Most Definitive Bear in Popular Culture (The Ringer), he's also been the subject of a clue on Jeopardy! Project highlights include The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Amazon); Foundation (Apple TV); the beloved series Outlander (STARZ); Godzilla: King of the Monsters (Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures); The Walking Dead (AMC); and Netflix's Academy Award–nominated documentary Crip Camp (produced by Barack and Michelle Obama). McCreary's celebrated scores for Sony PlayStation's blockbusters God of War and God of War Ragnarök have earned him two BAFTA Awards and two Grammy nominations. In 2024, McCreary released The Singularity, a hard-rock concept album featuring legendary rock talent including Slash, Serj Tankian (System of a Down), Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Rufus Wainwright, and more. McCreary has collaborated with artists from across the musical spectrum, including Hozier, Fiona Apple, Shirley Manson (Garbage), Annie Lennox, and the late Sinéad O'Connor. In 2014, Maestro Gustavo Dudamel conducted a suite of McCreary's music with the L.A. Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl.
Vera Wylde and Jessie Gender venture out on the Battlestar Galactica and take in the entire voyage one episode at a time.

In this episode we look at two beloved series that very nearly ended up in the Legion of one season wonders. First we uncover the story of the Wonder Woman TV series starring Lynda Carter, which was actually cancelled but picked up for further seasons by a more far sighted network. And then we attempted untangle the confusing history of the original Battlestar Galactica - was it really a TV series, or several movies, or two TV series?!? Plus we have a bonus step-side to Buck Rogers in the 25th Century which also nearly ended up cancelled.
