It’s time for another new episode of The Flickcast. The pop culture podcast about stuff nerds love. This week it’s Episode 430: The Big Three.
On this episode Chris is back from his “vacation” and ready to get to work. He and Joe dive into a slew of new and recurring topics such as a bit more about Zack Snyder’s Justice League, Episode 2 of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, the new trailer for The Suicide Squad, the importance of the COVID vaccine and, of course, the “Big Three.” They also talk about a bunch of other stuff, but those are the main ones this week.
Of course, since Chris is back, this episode runs a bit longer than last week. What can we do? It’s kinda his show. Anyway . . .

It’s time for another new episode of The Flickcast. The pop culture podcast about stuff nerds love. This week it’s Episode 429: In the Snyder Cut.
Chris is off this week (shocking, right?) so Joe welcomes “friend of the show” and Digital Trends Contributing Editor Rick Marshall to take on the task of discussing a whole bunch or new and recurring topics. Ah, who are we kidding, this show is about one big thing. Or, in this case, one long thing. Also, it’s about one “new” thing.
That’s right, it’s finally time to get in the Snyder Cut of Justice League now that it’s been released to HBO Max. So, do they love it? Do they hate it? Does anyone give a shit at this point? You’ll have to listen and find out. You can also check out Rick’s spoiler-free review over at Digital Trends.
Joe and Rick also talk a bit about Falcon and the Winter Soldier too. So if you’re into that show, you’ll want to listen. And don’t worry, Chris will be back next week to probably talk about all this stuff again. He hates to be left out.
Don’t forget, if you get a moment and feel like it/can do it, consider rating or reviewing the show on Apple Podcasts. Every rating or review helps. And if you’re really feeling it, consider supporting the show on Patreon.

It’s time for another new episode of The Flickcast. The pop culture podcast about stuff nerds love. This week it’s Episode 426: Rising to the Occasion.
On this episode Chris and Joe are back discussing a bunch of new (and old) topics. Some of these include the latest episode of WandaVision, the new trailer for Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead, DC’s Titans television series, the new Superman and Lois series, inappropriate humor, rising to the occasion and a whole lot more.
It’s another big episode. Long. Huge. You get the idea. . . It’s massive. . . Okay, we’re done.
Oh hey, if you get a moment and feel like it/can do it, consider rating or reviewing the show on Apple Podcasts and supporting the show on Patreon. We’d really appreciate it.

It’s time for another edition of What We’re Watching. This time What We’re Watching is the television series Titans.
Created by Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, and Greg Berlanti, Titans debuted and already ran for two seasons on DC Universe. The show has now moved to HBO Max with a third season set to drop later this year.
Titans follows the adventures, misadventures, trials, tribulations and bloody fights of a group of teen, and slightly older, superheroes led by everyone’s favorite sidekick Dick Grayson (aka Robin, the Boy Wonder). Although, as the show begins, Dick has been out from under Batman’s shadow for five years and been replaced by a younger Robin (aka Jason Todd).
The show also features Starfire, Raven, Beast Boy, Hawk, Dove, Deathstroke, Connor Kent (a clone with combined Superman and Lex Luthor DNA), Wonder Girl and a host of other familiar names, faces and costumes. They’re especially familiar if you’re fan of the Titans‘s comics. Fortunately, we are.
The show is violent, profanity-laden and immensely enjoyable. Sure, some may not appreciate another gritty take on superheroes, but we think this one works. And yes, we’re aware of the “issues’ with the season one finale, the “problems” with Raven’s Dad Trigon and especially the “controversy” about the casting of Anna Diop as Starfire.
Some people are always going to be upset about something and these things don’t in any way detract from our enjoyment of the show. And it should’t for you either. In fact, especially in the case of Diop, we find the objections ridiculous.
She does a great job. Give her, and the show, a chance. You just might enjoy it. If not, you can always watch something else. Plenty of other things on HBO Max and the host of other streaming services.
Season one and two of Titans, which features Brenton Thwaites as Dick Grayson, Anna Diop as Kory Anders, Teagan Croft as Rachel Roth, Ryan Potter as Garfield “Gar” Logan, Minka Kelly as Dawn Granger, Conor Leslie as Donna Troy, Esai Morales as Slade Wilson and Iain Glen as Bruch Wayne, are available on HBO Max. Season three, which is filming now, arrives later this year.
Check out the trailers for Titans season one and two below. If you watched Titans, let us know what you think. Any other shows you love we should be watching?
It’s time for another new episode of The Flickcast. The pop culture podcast about stuff nerds love. This week it’s Episode 425: Living In a Society.
On the episode Chris and Joe are back on their bullshit and discussing a bunch of new topics. Some of these include the recent crisis in Texas, the latest episode of WandaVision, the new trailer for Zack Snyder’s Justice League, the reboot of Mortal Kombat, the great South Korean sci-fi epic Space Sweepers, DC’s “adult” version of Titans, proper measurements of things, living in a society (of course) and a whole lot more.
They also manages to veer off-topic a few times, as happens with these two. So expect those tangents you know and love. Other than that, this episode is a bit shorter than the last few (thank goodness) but still manages to punch you right in the earholes.
Also, no formal picks this week except Chris’ reminder to watch and enjoy Space Sweepers. Oh, one more thing. Two more, really. If you get a moment and feel like it/can do it, consider rating or reviewing the show on Apple Podcasts and supporting the show on Patreon.

Welcome to yet another new series here at The Flickcast. This time around we’re calling it Trailer Time. No, it won’t feature pics or vids of cool trailers being pulled behind trucks or vans. Although, that might be fun too.
Instead, we’re featuring the usual kinds of trailers we discuss here and on the podcast. Movies, television shows, games and things we’re interested in and potentially excited for.
It’s violent and people kick a lot of ass, as you’d expect from a trailer from a movies based on a video game that’s violent and people kick a lot of ass. But seeing it in a movie, instead of a game, is a bit different. It is the “Red Band” trailer, after all.
So, we’re gonna put the trailer after the break to protect our more “sensitive” readers and viewers. Sure, you can just click through to watch, but we hope you do so responsibly.
Mortal Kombat drops in theaters and on HBO Max April 16th. Let us know what you think about this trailer and be sure to check back for more cool trailers for movies, television shows, games and more!
Hello and welcome to a brand new episode of The Flickcast. A pop culture podcast about stuff nerds love. On this week’s show Joe is, unfortunately, away so Chris is joined (once again) by Rick Marshall of Digital Trends to talk about all sorts of amazing things.
Some of these amazing things include the recent HBOMax/Warner Bros announcement, some favorites from all the latest Marvel, Disney and Star Wars news and what they’re looking forward to in 2021. And yes, they also discuss how 2020 wasn’t all bad.
How do they explain “2020 wasn’t all bad”? Well, by highlighting some of the many great movies, tv shows and more that came out during this very difficult year. Hey it’s something, right? It wasn’t all bad, just mostly bad.
It’s a big show with lots going on. Thanks for listening and Happy Holidays!

It’s a brand new episode of The Flickcast. Yes, that’s right. We’re doing this!
On this episode Chris and Joe are joined by “first guest” Matt Raub. He’s one of the original co-host of The Flickcast. Oh, and he’s also done some other stuff with online gaming or something.
Oh yeah, he’s the VP of Smosh and Smosh Games, some of the most popular YouTube and streaming channels ever created. That’s pretty cool. We’re glad to have him back.
Besides discussing all of Matt’s accomplishments, the trio also manage to talk about a certain world event (but just a little), further developments in film and television production and how streaming content is going to be the “new normal” from now on. They also take a moment to discuss the tragic loss of Chadwick Boseman. Plus, of course, the usual more.
