Idjitcast Season One Episode Eight “Bugs”

This week, it is the rainforests of Oklahoma for Sam & Dean. Here they find the old Indian burial ground, and guess what? It’s cursed! Now nature itself, in the form of insects & arachnids, shall take on any White Men who settle in the valley, and (in theory) none will survive the last night!

Join us as:

Paul drops a Plucky Duckling reference, does someone pick it up?

We ponder tribal relocations as they relate to Oklahoma. (Hint: They went the other way, in history.)

We celebrate the lifesaving power of a really good huddle.

Idjitcast Season One Episode Seven “Hook Man”

Here’s a new episode of Idjitcast to get your hooks into!

Sam & Dean travel to Ankeny, Iowa where it appears the famous “Hook Man” urban legend is coming true. The boys come to the aid of a P.K. who is unknowingly judging people, thereby selecting them as targets for the spectral figure.

Heidi joins us as we:

Discuss the blending of urban legends in the episode.

Contemplate the purity of silver.

Note the recurring presence of pool tables in the show.

Idjitcast Season One Episode Six “Skin”

Nuchtchas guest hosts this week. We watch Sam and Dean decipher the troubling trend of people apparently binding and killing those they love. It turns out there is a shapeshifter on the loose, and it has the ability to absorb people’s minds. This allows us unfiltered access to some of Dean’s inner thoughts and jealousies about Sam.

Listen in as we:

Discuss the lack of the original music cuts on the streamed version of the show.

Contemplate whether it is worth it to undergo multiple painful skin-shedding transformations in a couple hours.

Dare the creators of the show to remember that Dean is now dead in Missouri and give us a callback on this point at a later time.

IdjitCast Omnibus Episode, Season One, Episodes 1-5

Welcome to the IdjitCast!

It is time for John Pavlich to guide Paul Maki, Darcy, Yvette, and David Bushman through the series “Supernatural!” We have made an Omnibus episode for the first five episodes of “Supernatural” in order to kick off IdjitCast without taking too much time reviewing episodes from the last incarnation of the podcast.

We discuss: Pilot, Wendigo, Dead in the Water, Phantom Traveler, and Bloody Mary. What will the Newbies think? Hint: there is one episode that ranked as low as an average of 4.2 out of 10, is it the episode you think it is?

Regular recordings commence now! Next session will record episodes for “Skin” and “Hook Man.”

IdjitCast Newbie Intro – Yvette!

We are pleased to introduce another of our hosts! I have been highly enjoying listening to her over the past year or so, and I know you will too. It’s Yvette!

Listeners to our sister podcast on QuadZ, “Investigating Mars” will need no introduction. She was a fresh newbie going into Veronica Mars, as well as a podcast newbie. I had the pleasure of guesting on several episodes of “Investigating Mars” during their run. Now Yvette is an Introcast veteran with one completed series under her belt.

IdjitCast will be rebooting with an Omnibus Episode which will cover the 5 episodes from the old series. Feedback time will be limited as we cover five episodes in a single recording session, but please feel free to send something in!

Recording for the Omnibus Episode is Friday, May 30 at 8PM CT!

Ghostlight Podcast Season Three, Episode One “Divided Kingdom”

960

It’s back to New Burbage for the third and final season of “Slings & Arrows!” Geoffrey, Richard, and the rest of our troupe should be basking in success. The festival has been saved from financial disaster. Geoffrey’s “Macbeth” has just wrapped a run on Broadway. There is a new and exciting season fast approaching, and “King Lear” can have a big-name Canadian Actor and a special effects budget.

But Geoffrey’s psyche has thrown uncontrollable public weeping into the mix. He is unable to get his head into the game with Lear, and with choosing from a broad range of talent for his lead. Richard is struggling with living like a successful man, and an unexpected bad date throws his whole raison d’etre into question.

Throw in Darren Nichols directing a major stage musical, and you just know it is going to be a certain special, uncomfortable fun.

Listen in as we:

Discuss the comparative merits of different kinds of fog-making.

Ponder over just what musical Darren might have in mind.

Look forward to a drug storyline which is not being played for stupid pot jokes.

Ghostlight Podcast Season Two Bonus (Episode Eight) “Men With Brooms!”

menwithbrooms

It is time for a bonus episode! In between seasons, we take a break to look at Paul Gross’ 2002 film “Men With Brooms!” Chris Cutter’s old curling coach dies, bringing him and his fellow teammates back to Long Bay Ontario. The local rink is tasked with vying for the Golden Broom trophy. Meanwhile, Cutter is pulled back into a love triangle he never knew existed, and deals with his strained relationship with his father. Paul Gross, Molly Parker, and Leslie Nielsen star.

Listen as we:

Try to identify three cast members in common with “Slings and Arrows.” (Hint: One is pretty obvious)

Look at improbable things, and realize they are mostly fiction. One even has a link to the Beatles!

Attempt to discern which beavers are real and which ones are DigiBeavers!
