Snakes ain't always in the stuff!!! Sharks ain't always in the something!!! Ahhhhh!!!!! That is so scary to think about. But don't worry. It's just some stupid bullcrap some jerkoff thought up. The truth, of course, is somewhere in the middle. And in the middle of today's episode are some really interesting Kickstarters. Looks like we've got some glowing rocks which is great. Love that. And also there seem to be some people having problems with toothbrushes that I've not really been struggling with myself. And yes, of course there are some toilet and bible weirdos as well…after all, why not! Why wouldn't there be toilet and bible weirdos! That's what the show is all about!

Read transcriptHold onto your utility belts and prepare for maximum overdrive, because this week on Play Comics we're crash-landing straight into the chaotic world of Teen Titans for PS2, Xbox, and GameCube – a game that somehow managed to capture the essence of being a superhero teenager while simultaneously making you question whether saving the world is worth the carpel tunnel. Released in 2006, this beat-'em-up bonanza promised players the chance to live out their fantasies of being part of the most dysfunctional yet lovable superhero team this side of Titans Tower. Joining us for this digital adventure through Jump City's finest is none other than Eilish Pickett from my friendly neighborhood comic shop – a true connoisseur of all things four-color and someone who's probably seen more comic-to-game adaptations crash and burn than a Cyborg system malfunction. Together, we'll dive deep into whether this particular pixelated punch-fest managed to do justice to the beloved Cartoon Network series that ran from 2003 to 2006, or if it ended up being more disappointing than Beast Boy's attempt at stand-up comedy. From Robin's acrobatic staff-spinning to Raven's dark magic mayhem, this game promised to let you switch between all five Titans in real-time while delivering the kind of cooperative chaos that only comes from trying to coordinate a superhero team where one member transforms into animals and another shoots laser beams from her eyes. Whether you're here for the nostalgic trip back to simpler times when the biggest worry was whether Starfire would accidentally destroy the kitchen again, or you're just curious about how well this adaptation stacked up against the source material, grab your communicator and settle in. This episode is guaranteed to be more entertaining than watching Cyborg try to explain why his breakfast took up half the grocery budget, and definitely more coherent than trying to follow Beast Boy's logic during a heated argument about tofu. Learn such things as: Has there been another rotating team in comics that so ironically across the board has the same lineup? What happens when you just can't find the main villain in the game? How do you limit the power sets of characters who have basically unlimited power sets? And so much more! You can find Eilish on Tumbler @aliceheart247 if you really want to. But mostly just figure out where I live and go to my local comic shop.

Cinematic Sound Radio - Soundtracks, Film, TV and Video Game Music
Welcome to Cinematic Sound Radio's celebration of the 35th anniversary of Film Score Monthly. In 1990, a young film music fan named Lukas Kendall began what was to become Film Score Monthly with a Xeroxed newsletter sent to a handful of fans who signed up to receive the snail mail newsletter. From there, the newsletter turned into one of the biggest soundtrack publications in the world. The magazine's run ended in 2005 at 150 issues. It ceased printing due to budgetary reasons. The magazine, however, still lives on in the digital world as FSM On-Line. A byproduct of the magazine was a record label, which began in 1998 with the release of Jerry Goldsmith's STAGECOACH / THE LONER. Lukas would go onto produce 250 FSM CDs, many of them long-sought-after "holy grails." The label would cease production in 2013. The website and popular message board are still running, but are in desperate need of updating. That's where you come in. Lukas is currently raising money on Kickstarter to help fund a brand-new website, message board, book, CD and more! As of the release of this episode on June 20th, 2025, the Kickstarter has reached its initial goal of $25,000 and is currently in its stretch run to raise an additional $25,000. If you've already pledged, thank you, but if you haven't, then please head over to the Kickstarter by CLICKING HERE and donate what you can to help keep this film music institution running smoothly for the next 35 years! To celebrate FSM's 35 years, I'm going to play for you my top five favourite Film Score Monthly CDs of all time, featuring the music of Franz Waxman, Bronislau Kaper, Johnny Green, Stu Phillips, Elmer Bernstein, Alexander Courage and Jerry Goldsmith.

RHLSTP #566 - Get Back! - Richard is back at the Podcast Room for an interview with a real comedy legend, Maurice Gran, co-creator of Birds of a Feather, Shine On Harvey Moon, Love Hurts and of course Goodnight Sweetheart. They chat about how Maurice and co-writer Laurence Marks seemed thrown together by fate, working with three of the Young Ones, but especially Rik Mayall in the New Statesman, how they got caught up in Michael Winner's Bullseye, the unwitting strangers who inspired Birds of a Feather and the paucity of ambition of Gary Sparrow and how you can help the Goodnight Sweetheart adventures to continue by backing the kickstarter (unless Rich gets in there first with Goodnight Goodnight Sweetheart Sweetheart) and how Rich might finally find himself associated with Gary Sparrow after all.Back the Kickstarter here https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/idiotboxbooks/goodnight-sweetheart-many-happy-returnsSee RHLSTP live in London, Sheffield or Edinburgh http://richardherring.com/rhlstpSUPPORT THE SHOW!Watch our TWITCH CHANNELSee extra content at our WEBSITE Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp.

Our hosts return to the podcave, dust off their spurs, and ride into the Wild West as they review the episode, “Showdown.” Alex and Will dive into the animated debut of legendary DC antihero Jonah Hex, discovering his questionable past as a Confederate soldier -- which is quite the departure from his comic book origins. But, in a surprising twist, the mostly liberal person in 1883 was Ra's Al Ghul. He stands up against the mistreatment of his labourers and tries to free his small frontier community from a corrupt government railroad takeover. Wild, Wild West, anyone?They also discuss Ra's catatonic son who probably died on the plane journey home and the premier episode of his history podcast titled, "I Was There!"Saddle up for another spirited episode filled with time travel, antiheroes, and just the right amount of absurdity.Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspodJoin Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUsOutbreaks Vol. 1 Launch Page - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/outbreaks-volume-1-an-ongoing-zombie-anthology-series?ref=discovery&term=outbreaks&total_hits=1475&category_id=252Follow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspodFollow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod/Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobsonSpeech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/Monster Mash 1-2 Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/mobster-mash-1-2-classic-movie-monsters-as-mobstersWill's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics

I just found out I have a power bank that's been recalled. That's pretty annoying. Now I gotta fill out some forms, dispose of it properly, and wait around for a reimbursement. Plus, I guess, hope it doesn't explode. That would suck! But you know what else has been recalled? The Kickstarters from this week's episode, by me, when I reread what we were doing when we recorded this episode! I guess that doesn't really add much “zing” for you guys, to know that I was looking at this and kind of nodding a little bit. But I believe in full transparency in the creative process! For instance, On today's show we were GROWLing…but our dogs were all too cool, thanks to a new type of harness tech! Plus we wanted to COMMIT to funding the arts in Florida…but we canceled all those plans. And…a third one! What's it gonna be? Guess you'll have to TUNE in to “find out”!

Read transcriptBelieve it or not, ninja enthusiasts, this week on Play Comics we're kunai-diving into the pixelated shinobi wasteland that is Naruto: Ninja Council for the Game Boy Advance – because apparently someone at Tomy thought the best way to honor everyone's favorite orange-clad ramen addict was to trap him in a handheld prison with combat mechanics more frustrating than trying to explain the Chunin Exams to your grandmother. Released in 2003, this side-scrolling “adventure” promised to let players master the art of ninjutsu while battling through iconic locations from the Hidden Leaf Village, but what it actually delivered was a gaming experience so repetitive that even Naruto's shadow clone jutsu would get bored of itself. Joining us for this digital journey through the Land of Mediocre Adaptations is Luke Herr from D'ohMance Dawn – a man who's witnessed more anime-to-game train wrecks than a rejected Akatsuki recruitment video. Together, we'll explore how this GBA “masterpiece” managed to spawn not one, not two, but THREE sequels despite having the gameplay depth of a puddle in the desert and graphics that make early Dragon Ball Z filler episodes look like Studio Ghibli productions. So grab your headband and prepare for an episode that's more entertaining than actually grinding through the same three enemy types for hours on end – which, let's face it, isn't exactly setting the bar at Hokage level. Will this portable ninja adventure redeem itself through sheer nostalgic chakra, or will it vanish faster than Sasuke after a family reunion? Tune in to discover if this manga adaptation belongs in the Hall of Fame… or should be sealed away forever like the Nine-Tailed Fox! Learn such things as: Is it dangerous to have pretty eyes? Is all manga and anime just a giant metaphor for the horrible nature of man? Does a game being fun make it a good intro to the franchise? And so much more! You can find Luke over on D'OhMance Dawn, Exiled, Multiversal Q, and RPG Pals Club. Or catch him on BlueSky @koltreg or his Patreon, found under Luke Herr.

Crowdfunding Nerds: Kickstarter Marketing For Board Games & Beyond!
Ever wondered how the crowdfunding giants stack up against each other? In episode 236 of the Crowdfunding Nerds podcast, Andrew and Sean dive into the competitive dynamics of Kickstarter, GameFound, and BackerKit. How is Kickstarter's community engagement evolving under Asher McClanahan's leadership? And what does BackerKit's million-dollar equity crowdfunding move mean for the industry? We also explore the intriguing world of organic search traffic with Ahrefs, comparing Kickstarter's vast reach with GameFound's niche focus. Could Kickstarter's traffic surge from India be a sign of bot activity? We unravel this mystery and emphasize why creators must build their own audiences. Plus, we tackle the controversial use of AI-generated art in Kickstarter projects. Is it a shortcut to success or a credibility killer? Join us as we connect these insights to the philosophical themes of AI from Metal Gear Solid 2. Tune in for a deep dive into the strategic choices that could make or break your crowdfunding campaign!

We chat towards what we spotted, what we think needs to be improved & what we scored!! Spoiler alert: Pub Lunch & making a day of it with great friends, is always the overall highlight!! Then Trent does an awesome Toyline Retrospective on the early 80's franchise that was: Blackstar! With a Filmation Cartoon airing first in 1981; then a corresponding Toyline from Galoob in 1983! Featuring the fight between our Hero: John Blackstar against the Evil Ruler: Overlord on the Planet Sagar. This Toyline & franchise actually has more ties to Masters Of The Universe than one may think.... There are some EPIC Beasts, questionable modes of transport & the incredibly sort after Ice Castle Playset - this Franchise really tried hard & its interesting to think in a sliding doors parallel reality - could this have been a more popular franchise than Masters Of The Universe?!

It's not looking good... it's not looking good at all ... using the brand new Daggerheart system from Critical Role's Darrington Press, we dive into part 2 of our City of the Black Rose one-shot, with our party at the mercy of the Boogeyman, Synapse. Will they be able to overcome the situation they've found themselves in? Will they uncover the motivations behind the murders? And will our small band of heroes, who have failed time and time again, finally come up on top? Because those heroes are: Connie Chang as Yùn Zuìhuo (she/they/ta) Luis Carazo as Erzan (he/him) Candace the Magnificent returning as Hecatae Hopewell (they/she) Caldwell Tanner returning as Ozrik "Shrimp Money" Johnson (he/him) and your not-so-neighbourhood GM Jeremy Cobb! But that's not all that's going on in Mavros! Our very first Kickstarter for the City of the Black Rose Campaign setting is LIVE NOW, in collaboration with Roll and Play Press! Completely system agnostic, there are Daggerheart specific additions to help you run a game in Mavros with the Daggerheart system - which, as you can hear, works particularly well for narrative storytelling games! We were fully funded in just 49 minutes! We've hit multiple stretch goals adding more content to the book, and more vignettes with special guests to the podcast - but just how much more have we got going on?

Another Crazy Monday…Another Crazy YKS. This is one crazy show, and what does that make the listeners of it? Ha. Well, you guessed it and said it. Not me! But hey. Enough craziness…or is it? Not for this crazy guy! Nothing is ever enough! Except when it comes to have six Kickstarter projects to talk about on one episode, in which crazy case I find to be the exact correct amount. Curious, that! That being said, what would they even be…?Some Japanese treats for your dog, a card game about pimping, and a dashboard toy of a twerking lady? Well, there's only one word for that.
