This was our big live panel at the convention, and we were glad to also welcome special guests Heather Price of Nerdy Bitches Podcast and Cheesy Bloomfield of Cheesy and Noel Go to Hell Podcast. In this panel we went on a deeper dive into some of the things that Black Widow covered and why this film was important in the MCU and maybe even in society as a whole.

Utah Remote-Con 2 has come and gone meaning it's time to get back to our somewhat regular schedule. And what better time to get back into the swing of things than right after E3 2021? With the video game industry's biggest event of the year firmly in the rearview mirror, the Stolendroids panelists recap some of this year's highlights as only they can. With some entertaining discussion surrounding E3, video game updates (inspired by Nintendo's lack of Animal Crossing news), and video games in general, you really don't want to miss this episode. And do you remember Gambit from Nintendo's Game & Watch and Super Smash Bros.? Neither does anyone else. Well, maybe one person does. Seriously. This is a fun episode. Give it a listen then and let us know what you think. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Can you believe that it's been 30 years since Disney released their masterpiece, Beauty and the Beast? Well, it has. And despite its age, the film still holds up quite nicely. In fact, some would even say that out of the entire Disney animated library, it is one of their best. And don't we deserve the best? We're a few hosts down this week, but Craig Price joins us to help celebrate three decades of that tale as old as time, Beauty and the Beast. Listen as we discuss our memories of this Disney classic, what makes it so good, and how Marlee is so very, very young. After you're done listing to this episode, be sure to check out Craig's shows: Matinee Heroes and Matinee Heroes Presents Castoff! And don't forget to let us know what you think! We want you to let us know your thoughts and feelings about Beauty and the Beast. Where do you think it ranks in comparison with other Disney films? Let us know in the comments, or send us a message via social media. And if you enjoyed Craig's wit and wisdom, we're happy to announce that he has joined the Stolendroids family! He will be producing a weekly show that recaps the week in geek. He will also be joining us for Utah Remote Con 2 in May. Be sure to stay tuned for more information on both of these exciting developments! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Someone once said that WandaVision is one of those shows where you either love it, you hate it, or you fall someplace in between. So it's like most television shows. But the difference with WandaVision is that most people seem to be on either end of the spectrum, with not a lot going on in the middle. It's a show that doesn't generate much apathy from viewers. While it succeeds in invoking viewers' emotions weekly, fans remain on the edge of their seats waiting to see what will happen next, while haters take to the Internet to rage about what they just witnessed.So now that the final episode has aired, what does the Stolendroids crew think about the show? Which fan theories did they want to see turn out to be true, and which plot twists left them feeling as dead inside as Tommy and Billy's dog, Sparky? The gang is all here for this special live edition of Stolendroids Podcast. If you missed our live stream, here is your chance to catch up on all of the chaotic magic. Spoilers abound, but so does the fun! Sit back and enjoy the show, then be sure to let us know what you thought of WandaVision! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

When Dungeons & Dragons was first published in 1974, the 1,000-print run sold out in the first year. The adventure game continued to gain popularity throughout the 1980s until it came under an extraordinary assault from groups who feared that it promoted devil worship and witchcraft. Like so many other pop-culture controversies of the past, these claims were found mostly to be without merit. But enough parents had heard the news reports, and the damage was done. Those who played D&D and other tabletop role-playing games were ostracized. Doomed to spend Friday nights in their parents' basement battling orcs and trolls. Over time, the moral panic over Dungeons & Dragons shifted to other things, including movies and especially video games and RPGs began to enjoy a resurgence. Fast forward to today, and people from all walks of life can be found playing tabletop role-playing games to escape the high-stress world in which we live. Add a global pandemic and the ability to play these games remotely into the mix, and you have a recipe for an RPG renaissance, which is what's happening. And that brings us to our first Stolendroids Podcast episode of 2021. Listen as we discuss our experiences with tabletop role-playing games. We also get into what some of the different game systems are and why we believe TTRPGs are seeing such a surge in popularity. And you know that we're going to talk about the newest addition to the Stolendroids family, The Lettuce Inn, as new Game Master Erika joins the conversation.So give the episode a listen, and then let us know what you think. We also want to know what your experiences with role-playing games are. Message us with your thoughts on social media! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

You hear a heartbeat... It grows louder and quicker… Do you run, or do or hide? Welcome to Spooky Season! To kick things off, Lindsey, Marlee, and Steph are joined by a friend of the show and the newest member of the Stolendroids family, Erika, to talk about their first experiences playing the hit survival horror video game, Dead by Daylight.Games and horror franchises mentioned in this episode: Left 4 Dead, Silent Hill, Friday the 13th, Halloween, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Saw, Evil Dead, Scream, and Stranger Things See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Every now and then you learn that one of your friends hasn't watched a movie or a TV show that you absolutely love. You may feel shocked, dismayed, or even betrayed. That's what recently happened when the Stolendroids team realized that Zohner has never seen Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It was at that moment that it was decided that this wrong must be righted. This episode is the result.What TV shows do you love that have flown under someone else's radar? Let us know because this was a fun show that we'd like to do again. Obviously, though, we need another topic so send us your thoughts in the comments, on social media, or at feedback@stolendroids.com! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Just when we thought things were starting to calm down, 2020 struck again. But we're back, and on this episode, we're discussing a classic argument: Which is better: DC or Marvel?Of course, as we find out, it's not that simple. To pit one entertainment powerhouse against the other and call the matter settled doesn't work. And while the argument was once pretty straightforward, things have become vastly more complicated as each company's reach has grown.DC and Marvel both bring something unique to the table. However, what that is varies depending on which medium we're discussing. Comic books? Video games? What about movies?Listen as the Stolendroids panelists break down each company's strengths and decide who is the better of the two as only we can. And then, after you have finished listening, let us know what your thoughts are either on social media or at feedback@stolendroids.com! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Sidekicks are an important part of storytelling. Captain America has Bucky. Frodo has Samwise. Batman has Robin. Stolendroids has Collin...Sidekicks often get a bad rap. We can probably blame the 1950's and 60's for this. (Thanks 1966 Robin.) Characters that were once simply comic relief have morphed into something more. A good sidekick will help make the protagonist a better character. They will help improve the story. And they will point out "holy rusted metal." (Thanks Robin from Batman Forever.)In this episode of the Stolendroids Podcast, Collin, Marlee, Jake, and Zach discuss some of their favorite front pockets, better known as sidekicks! What makes a good sidekick? Are sidekicks more than just lovable, but incapable dorks? Who are some of the best sidekicks out there? Let us know who we missed in our discussion in the comments below!

Heraclitus, the pre-Socratic Greek philosopher said the only constant in life is change. This is true even at the Happiest Place on Earth where Bob Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company recently announced that he will be immediately stepping down from a role he has held for 20 years. When asked about his decision, he said: "I don’t want to run the company anymore." I guess that's that.Iger will be succeeded as CEO by Bob Chapek, who was most recently chairman of Disney parks.Being the Disney nerds that pretty much everyone at Stolendroids is, you know that news like this couldn't go without discussion so that's exactly what our panel does on this, the 400th episode of Stolendroids Podcast.By the way, Jake is currently at Disneyland. We hope he's having fun while the rest of the team is buried in snow in Utah. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The U.S. Constitution requires that the President periodically "give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient." This was originally often accomplished via a written report, but during the last century, it has become common for the President to deliver his report in person during the State of the Union Address.But if you look at the shenanigans that have taken place during recent States of the Union Addresses, we decided that we needed in on that action. Being the go-getters that they are, Jake and Collin took it upon themselves to prepare a State of Stolendroids Address. Now I don't want to steal their thunder, but I will say that the state of Stolendroids is strong. We have some amazing things planned for 2020 and beyond. What are they? You'll just have to listen to find out.Also, no speeches were torn in half during the making of this recording. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This is a very special episode. This is part one of a three part episode spanning three days over multiple podcasts. Part two will be on Stolendroids on Tuesday, and part three will be on Cutscenes and Cupcakes on Wednesday. It was a lot of fun getting together with so many great podcasters to talk about Pirates of the Caribbean on “International Talk Like a Pirate Day.” Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl came out in 2003 and launched a major tent pole movies franchise for Disney, before they had Marvel or Star Wars. This made Johnny Depp a household name and turned Orlando Bloom into a heartthrob. It was action and adventure and everything just worked. The first installment was a huge hit and pirates became all the rage.The sequels never seemed to get to the same level of quality that the first one did, but there are still plenty of fun moments, and each one was a box office smash. Enough that they made five films over 14 years. That’s not too shabby.And then there’s hugging and smelling celebrities. Val tells us everything we need to know about that. From Sting to Doug Jones to Richard Marx. It gets weird, but a good weird. So, it’s a typical Movies That Make Us episode. Plenty of tangents, but we also talk a little bit about the movies. At the end of the day, we give a rating and grade to the entire Pirates of the Caribbean series.What did you think of Pirates of the Caribbean as a series? Let us know! We would love to hear from you. Send your feedback for this episode, as well as any previous episodes or suggestions for future episodes to podcast@moviesthatmakeus.com. Be sure to catch part two of Crisis on Infinite Podcasts on Stolendroids tomorrow, and part three on Cutscenes and Cupcakes on Wednesday! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The Texas Chapter of Stolendroids is once again in session, but this time things get weird really fast. But honestly, how is that any different from our other shows? This episode though is a perfect example of why Collin should never go more than 47 hours without sleep. Once hour 48 hits, there's no telling what will happen.Some things are predictable though. For example, fans are upset about stuff. Also, Microsoft is taking shots at Apple and #hackzohner is sadly still very much a thing. Listen to the tales of woe from the pillow fort we made in Collin's hotel room and be amazed that I haven't had to nuke my identity and start over.HeadlinesGeek News:Kevin Conroy Set To Play Bruce Wayne in The CW's "Crisis on Infinite Earths" Crossover EventDespite awful lore, some Pokémon Go fans want to keep their shadow monstersCaptain Marvel sales are bombing, here is whyTech News:Regret your request for $125 from Equifax?

Decade-old spoilers abound as the Texas Chapter of Stolendroids is called to order. Collin takes a trip to The Lone Star State only to learn that he needs to avoid anything with multiple legs that crawls on the ground. This includes chiggers, rabbits, and whatever it was that attempted to rush him as he walked outside. (A chupacabra perhaps?) Thankfully he survived his near-fatal attack so that we could discuss some of what came out of San Diego Comic-Con, specifically Marvel's Phase 4 news from outside my daughter's princess tent. (Spoiler warning: We couldn't fit inside.)That's not all we talk about though. Prepare to not be surprised as you learn that Alan Moore doesn't like yet another Hollywood adaptation of one of his works. He has a history of placing curses on projects that he disapproves of but I have a suggestion for him. I think in this case it would be more effective to buy everyone involved in HBO's Watchmen a chili cheese Blizzard from Dairy Queen. Doing that would shut down production for at least a week and there are no messy curses to deal with. However, DQ may be charged with crimes against humanity.HeadlinesGeek News:Marvel Phase 4Alan Moore doesn’t like HBO’s WatchmenA sequel to The Simpsons Movie is inevitableSix horrific fast-food 'hacks' that have been tested See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

I know that it's more complicated than this, but basically, chaos theory states that a small change at a starting position can lead to large, unpredictable changes over time. That pretty much sums up this episode. As I'm preparing to move to Texas, Collin got a whole bunch of guests to join in on the fun at Watchtower Cafe. Joining us this week are the team from Movies That Make Us, Rachel from Create Loud (which isn't a Stolendroids show but she's our friend so she's always welcome), and a few of our writers: Tom and Justin. Mike, the proprietor of Watchtower also makes an appearance. (Thanks to him for letting us take over part of his place. Be sure to check out their Kickstarter campaign to help fund their new location.)Despite the fact that the show comes off the rails repeatedly, we do manage to discuss angry fans, Batman casting rumors, Game of Thrones, Disney, and Marvel. Again though, chaos theory. Hopefully, you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.Headlines:Geek News:The REAL Mandarin is out thereRobert Pattinson might be BatmanCW isn’t renewing their deal with NetflixDisney assumes full control of HuluAmazon cancels The TickGame of Thrones fans launch petitions See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We've been back for a little over a month, but Stolendroids just doesn't feel the same without trying to crank out a podcast on a weekly basis. At 2:00 AM. While trying to do a dozen other things related to the website. With no recording equipment. Yep. the more things change, the more they stay the same. Will we ever learn? Probably not.Anyway, Stolendroids Podcast is back with some familiar voices and we're going back to our roots with the show. We're still bringing you tech news, but we're also mixing in geek-culture items that have caught our eye. We hope you like the new format. If you want to share your thoughts, feel free to drop us a message at feedback@stolendroids.com.

The Silver Age of comics (circa 1956-1970) was a glorious time. It was a time where some of the greatest and most influential comic book artists were doing their greatest and most influential work. With legends like Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko teaming up with Stan Lee to create iconic characters, including Spider-Man and The Fantastic Four at Marvel, and Neal Adams completely revolutionizing the way we see our superheroes over at DC, there was no shortage of amazing artwork in comic books.Comic book historian, author, and lecturer, Arlen Schumer, has taken it upon himself to teach others about just how influential and important the Silver Age actually was to comic book storytelling. To help accomplish this, he wrote the award-winning book, The Silver Age of Comic Book Art, and has given numerous lectures all across the country on the subject. He was also kind enough to give us some time to chat.If you are a fan of comic books, history, or just want to hear a really good conversation, then this episode is not to be missed!You can follow Arlen at his website. He is also on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, and YouTube. And while you're at it, go buy his book. You'll be glad you did. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We're finally back with episode 20 of The Generic Geek Podcast! Zohner is flying solo this time thanks to Collin going and getting himself married off, but is he really solo if he's interviewing guests from Salt Lake Comic Con FanX 2017? Well, yes; but only for a few minutes.Anyhoo, while we were at FanX 2017, Zohner had the chance to chat with Arrow and Supernatural actress Amy Gumenick, comic book legend Marv Wolfman, Khary Payton from The Walking Dead and numerous cartoons including Young Justice and Teen Titans Go!, the voice of Johnny Bravo, and about a million other characters, Jeff Bennett, best-selling authors Larry Correia and D.J. Butler, and writer of DC Super Hero Girls, Shea Fontana. We wish to extend a special thanks to these very talented individuals for taking a few moments to chat with us. Please take a few minutes to support their work, if you aren't already doing so.And speaking of supporting talented individuals, this weeks episode is brought to you by Melissa Mae. Melissa is an amazing artist who frequents Salt Lake Comic Con, so you may be familiar with her stuff already, but if you're not, you don't need to wait until September to check out her work, you can visit her site now.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has fans and critics divided. (According to Rotten Tomatoes, there is about a 40% difference between the critics and audiences.) Not surprisingly, it also has the Stolendroids team divided. Was it a perfect movie? Was it a hot, steaming mess? Was it somewhere in between the two? Join us as we try to decide.Also on this episode, we discuss the new trailers for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Suicide Squad. Have you seen them yet? If not, do yourself a favor and watch them now. Heck, even if you have seen them, go watch them again because, as you know, they are amazing. And what are your thoughts on BvS? Did you like it, or did WB/DC miss the mark? What about the bevy of amazing geek-centric trailers to which we were recently treated? Are there any flops in the bunch?

It's a super Star Wars spectacular episode of the newest offering from The Generic Geek Podcast! If you have listened to the show, or really to any of the Stolendroids shows, you know that there are few things out there that Zohner loves more than Star Wars. And since the new trailer was released earlier this week, why not devote an entire podcast to that which is so loved? Well, that's exactly what we do so sit back and hear Zohner and Zuke discuss the new trailer and all of the good, and bad, surrounding the upcoming The Force Awakens.

Do you love comics? Who doesn't?! Are you sad to see so few of them in newspapers now? What are newspapers?! Do you want to know what the cartoonists think of the whole thing? Trust me, you really do!Fred Schroeder and Dave Kellett (of the webcomic Sheldon) have traveled the globe for 4 years, interviewing some of the best comic artists ever to take you on an incredible look into the world of comic strips. Fred was gracious enough to spend some time with us and tell us what comics meant to him and how this project got started. We could have talked with him for days, but we haven't yet figured out a way to do that without overloading our storage on the server! Instead, we hope you enjoy this hour.NOW, important for our listeners and followers: Stripped launches on iTunes on April 1. We are trying to help them hit #1 on the iTunes download list that day and hope to see everyone go out and get their copy of it then. There are three very important reasons why you should do this:1. Because it's an awesome film that you should see no matter what day it comes out on,2. Because April 1 is Stolendroids' birthday (both the site AND the podcast), and this would be an awesome gift to us. And finally . . .3. The documentary on Justin Beaver comes out that day and it's only right that these guys beat that!Be sure to check out the Stripped website and enjoy the trailer below.

The Borg. (Sort of.) This week we’re joined by Carl from the Stolen Droids podcast and the gang from the Trek Mate podcast. We set out to discuss the Borg but we took a few unexpected turns down some transwarp conduits… so in the end we were only “Borgish.” In news we look at the slew of movie rumors that have been swirling this week including Cumberbatch as Khan, the appearance of Klingons, and a possible guest spot for Leonard Nimoy. We also have news about Creation’s New Jersey con and Destination Star Trek London, plus a lot of Star Trek Online news including the May schedule for rotating feature episodes that offer unique awards and the Caitian Atrox Carrier. And on a very sad note, we remember composer Joel Goldsmith, who passed away on April 29 and the age of 54.
