The Sci-Fi Podcast – S2E8: Solo and Station! and Area 51

Welcome to The SciFi Podcast, a wretched hive of scum and villainy a bi-weekly podcast focused on in-depth discussions of all things science fiction. The SciFi Podcast features four hosts—Mattroid, Solo, Nick 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, William Solo Jr. and Station! complete the 2-part conversation about the suggested storming of Area 51 and the existence of aliens…particularly in Nevada. Not unlike Mattroid and Sputnik in the first episode, William and Station! explore the fascinating world of alien life on earth, specifically referencing and reviewing Bob Lazar and the documentary, “Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers“, among many other things. Is this the first episode of “The Parenting Podcast”? Only time will tell.

THE SCI-FI PODCAST EP 32: Best of the Worst Sci-Fi Villains

Welcome to The SciFi Podcasta wretched hive of scum and villainy a bi-weekly podcast focused on in-depth discussion of all things Science Fiction. The SciFi Podcast features four hosts—Mattroid, Brain, 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.

Finally, an in-depth discussion revolving around the baddest characters in all of science fiction. Few things make a movie excel or plummet like a villain–are they scary? monstrous? evil? hysterical? pathetic? Some of each, and each host takes the time to bring to you their three favorite and three least favorite villains, and then some. Make sure you take to the boards or Facebook page after you listen so you can contribute to the discussion! Is the Predator a villain or not?! Let us know! 

(stick around until the end for a behind the scenes discussion about snacks!)
