Hello, fellow Renegades! We’ve decided to try something a little bit different with this piece in the interest of adding some visual variety and a little bit of an exploration of what it means to utilize media as a form of escapism. The world’s going to Hades in a handbasket, so a break from the harshness of reality is always welcome. Anyway, hope you enjoy this experiment!

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 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 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!
