We are among those who believe the saying “Better late than never.” So, in that spirit, here’s a brand new episode of The Flickcast . . . better late than never. See what we did there?
On this week’s episode, Chris and Joe are still sorta angry, but a lot less angry than a couple weeks ago. Thanks goodness. Topics this week include more on Mad Max: Fury Road, the Flash finale, more Game of Thrones controversy and a whole lot more. Indeed.
Picks this week include Chris’ pick of the HBO documentary Montage of Heck, about Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain and Joe’s pick of the 1968 classic sci-fi movie Planet of the Apes.

We did it. We got a new episode of The Flickcast done and out to you, our loyal listeners. We know we should have had one last week and we didn’t. Sorry about that.
It probably won’t happen again. Probably. And Aliens mostly come out at night. Mostly.
Anyway, on this week’s episode, Chris and Joe are back and a bit less angry than last time. That’s a good thing because they’re talking about a whole slew of potentially anger-inducing subjects this week including the current status of Rosario Dawson’s career, all the various TV show pickups and cancellations, Idris Elba vs. Tom Hardy and a whole lot more. Yep. More.
Picks this week include Chris’ pick of Last Week Tonight With John Oliver, which airs on HBO, and Joe’s pick of the new Samsung Galaxy S6. Yes, he uses and Android phone. So?

Back in Guitar Hero 3, video game developer Activision began including various well known guitarists, both living and passed on, as unlockable characters within the franchise. In the series’ most recent iteration, Guitar Hero 5, which was just released on September 1st, deceased rock legends Johnny Cash and Kurt Cobain were including alongside living rockers Carlos Santana, Shirley Manson, and Matt Bellamy. Now while those still with us had complete control over their likeness being used in the game, Cash and Cobain’s legacies, both real life and digital, are in control of their respective estates.
Tabloid darling Courtney Love was left in control of Cobain’s estate and with that came his digital likeness. Recently, someone brought to Courtney’s attention this video that has been floating around YouTube of her deceased husband in what she and others consider a less than flattering light singing and dancing in the roles of various other musicians like Bon Jovi and Public Enemy.

Let’s face it, the world of terrestrial FM radio has gotten pretty terrible in the past decade or so, which is why we’ve moved on to things like satellite, iPods, and internet radio stations. Well, finally, there’s an internet radio station (that you can listen to on your iPod or iPhone) for us geeks!
Meet The Point Radio, one of the first 24/7 internet radio stations dedicated to the world of pop culture.
On The Point, there are plenty of shows for the pop-savvy, from the obscure music show Weird Sounds inside the Gold Mine, which airs every Sunday at 7pm EDT, to our very own The Flickcast, which airs every Wednesday at 1pm EDT, with reruns running through Sunday.
When it comes to music, there is no song too popular or obscure, from Beyonce to the Beatles to a Supremes/Nirvana mash-up, you really never know what you’re going to hear next, and that makes for quite an experience.
Of course, like all real these days, you can hit up The Point in all of your social networks, from Facebook to Twitter and even get the point on your Mobile device. Check out The Point Radio and enjoy a true pop culture radio station today!
