The Sci-Fi Podcast: S2-E13: “Bill and Ted Face the Music” a Heartfelt Review

Posted on April 18, 2021 by SciFiHost

Welcome to The SciFi Podcast, a wretched hive of scum and villainy issuing a bi-weekly podcast focused on in-depth discussions of all things science fiction. The SciFi Podcast features four hosts—Mattroid, Nick, Solo and Station!—and frequent guests. Each episode we look at a science fiction theme or franchise and take the discussion where no show has gone before.

In this episode the hosts discuss “Bill and Ted Face the Music” as well as welcoming Mattroid back to the crew. Discussion of Nick’s pants, William’s “Loser Reviews”, Station’s gripes and Mattroid’s return from the dead fill in the gaps between takes on what the hosts make of Bill S. Preston Esq. and Ted Theodore Logan’s most triumphant appearance on screen in nearly three decades.
