Read MoreThe latest episode of Tooned Up is now here! Cam the Animation Guru is joined by our Captain, Mike, and extra special guest host, Cat! They give us the rundown of all the animation news that’s fit to print (or chat about), plus a review of Netflix’s Fearless, which maybe should have left well enough alone and been afraid. Heh. Finally, our terrific trio turn their gaze upon HBO Max’s animated series, Infinity Train! Enjoy the episode!
Read MoreWelcome to the second episode of our Mental Health Checkup series here on the RPC Podcast Network! This episode was a bit different from the first one, in that we kept the format a bit looser and the discussion turned into more of a Free For All venting session, but the core message was still there: Whatever it is you’re dealing with, especially during these unprecedented and strange times, even though the path is dark and confusing… things will get better. The dawn will come again. Life, to paraphrase Dr. Ian Malcolm, will find a way. I know that may sound trite, especially for those going through the most horrible of circumstances, but just know that you can make it through, and as you’re struggling, you’ll always have the RPC crew cheering you on!
Read MoreSo, how’s it going? Life got you down? Why not listen to episode 3 of the Streaming Wars, and check out our thoughts on a number of brand-spankin’-new VOD and streaming movies! Neoplasmic (Keona), The Streamin’ Demon (Jacob), The Director (Josh), and Kay-Rah (Kristal) discover that they should have left You Should Have Left alone, while they learn about the founding fathers through Lin Manuel Miranda’s rap musical Hamilton. Then it’s time for a rotation at sea with Tom Hanks in Apple TV+’s Greyhound, followed by a little political spin doctoring with Jon Stewart’s Irresistible, and some immortal action with The Old Guard. All this and even more on this extra-sized edition of the Streaming Wars, here on the RPC Podcast Network.
Read MoreWelcome, everyone, to a special episode of the Streaming Wars! This was recorded about a month ago, just as a bunch of new VOD and streaming movies were being released. The biggest among these were Scoob, Capone, The High Note, King of Staten Island, The Vast of Night, Da 5 Bloods, and the infamous Artemis Fowl. So sad to see what became of that last one. Anyway, here are Jacob, Hayden, and Keona with their thoughts on those movies and more! Hope you survive… the Streaming Wars!
Read MoreGreetings, everyone! Neoplasmic here with a brand spankin' new episode of Tooned Up! Our tenth one, in fact, so it's an anniversary of sorts! Congrats to Mike and Cam, who discuss a metric ton of animation news, including another Spongebob: Sponge on the Run delay, the newly announced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film, the upcoming Animaniacs reboot, some Comic-Con @Home schedule news, and so much more! Oh, and they review Hulu's Crossing Swords, HBO Max's Close Enough, Netflix's Japan Sinks 2020 and BNA! Behold, the tenth episode of our longest-running podcast! Huzzah!
Read MoreHello once again, ladies and gents! Your friendly neighborhood EIC Neoplasmic here! This is a very special episode of RPC’s Free For All podcast which was recorded over a month ago on June 7, 2020 featuring Mike (Captain Kaye), Kristal (Kay-Rah), Josh (The Director), Jacob (the Streamin’ Demon), myself, and our newest co-host, Hayden (Lord Hades). Topics included Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of Ready Player One, the rise and fall of Ernest Cline, the author of Armada and the aforementioned book upon which Spielberg’s film was based, along with a cornucopia of random thoughts about musical biopics and laughter. Yes, friends, this is the lost episode of FFA, and it’s one that I personally think is very special and unique! Please enjoy!
Read MoreThe latest episode of RPC’s Free For All general discussion show finds Kristal, Josh, Jacob, and Keona chatting about a fan-edited cut of the movie Shazam, replete with less humor, a more Snyder-esque color palette, and retooled visual effects and music. We also talk about a Last of Us 2 outrage petition, M. Night Shyamalan’s filmography, our favorite actors, Matt Reeves’ Batman, and the upcoming Avengers video game! Plus, an epic Josh rant about Youtube star Shane Dawson! It’s a packed show, so let’s get to it!
Read MoreBoth Iron Man 3 and Thor The Dark World were released in 2013. Meanwhile, Warner Bros and DC had launched their cinematic universe with Man of Steel in that year as well, which was met with a disappointingly small box office intake and less than stellar critical reception. Many of the complaints lobbied against Zack Snyder's take on Superman were about how downbeat and overly bleak it was.
Read MoreWelcome, fellow Star Wars geeks (and even those of you who aren’t!), to another episode of our general discussion podcast, the Free For All with Jacob, Mike, Josh, Kristal, and Keona! This week on the show, we dissect the Rise of Skywalker even further, dive deep into Captain America: Civil War, chat about Universal’s troubles with the North American Theater Owners (NATO), and we talk about the relevance of the Simpsons in today’s world. It’s a long episode, guys, but well worth a listen!
Read MoreWelcome to a very special episode of Renegade Pop Culture’s animation-focused podcast, Tooned Up! For this episode, co-hosts Mike and Cameron are joined by special guests PJ Campbell from Schmoes Know and the PJ Campbell Network, and Evan Degraff from Evan’s Last Words, who provide their expertise and knowledge on the medium of animation and movies in general, and we were so grateful to have them on the show! This week, we chat about Netflix’s The Willoughbys, HBO Max’s upcoming launch, and whether or not Sony can make a live action adaptation of One Punch Man work. Cameron also catches us up on the news, and everyone sings the praises of Captain Underpants. Yep, it’s another episode of Tooned Up, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Read MoreIn the latest Free For All podcast, Kristal, Josh, Keona, Mike, and Jacob discuss the most recent film releases on VOD, including Emma, Never Rarely Sometimes Always, Trolls World Tour, Onward, Birds of Prey & the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Bloodshot. We also saved some time for a quick foray into Final Fantasy VII Remake at the end of our two-hour long show! Whew! That’s a lot to talk about! Enjoy the episode!
Read MoreIn our first Multimedia Combo discussion (or Multi-Combo, for short), the 4 Among Us are joined by Jacob from the Streaming Wars podcast to discuss some of our favorite movies and the moments that made them memorable, like the “Martha” scene in Batman v Superman. I’m being facetious about it being our favorite moment, of course. We also talk a little bit about Capcom’s Resident Evil 3 remake, and the most horrifying sequence in the Legend of Zelda series. It’s a packed, random discussion in this episode, Renegades! Enjoy the Free For All!
Read MoreWelcome to the first (and so far, only) installment of Buffy with the Besties, a retrospective series in which best friends Keona (aka Neo) and Kirsten (aka Red) take a look back at Buffy the Vampire Slayer! This time around, we tackle season two of the show, along with the finale of the first season. It’s a deep dive into our favorite episodes and characters of the season! Remember: the besties that slay together, stay together!
Read MoreWelcome to the first installment of Renegade Pop Culture’s coverage of the war to end all wars… The Streaming Wars!
