Listen to episode 166 now!

With the word out that George Lucas is yet again messing around with the original Star Wars trilogy, set to hit the Blu-Ray market next week, we thought we would take this opportunity to review the positive things this movie franchise has brought to the world (like R2D2 bathing suits? Who's with me?!) as well as determine why we think ol' George is messing with what used to be such a good thing.

Also, as always; New Comics Day at Strange Adventures, Opening Night at Empire Theatres and Table Topic Turntable!

Where Monsters Dwell #1: The Reboot Episode!

Listen to Episode #1 now!

In an attempt to appeal to a younger, hipper audience, the executives at WMD headquarters have decided to start fresh with a brand new #1 episode. It is our hope that this will make it easier for new, younger listeners to jump on at this point without having to worry about what they've missed over the course of our previous 153 episodes.

Also, the parts of Remington J. Osborne, Monster Mike and Red Shirt Ryan have been recast. With our new, younger and more hip talent behind the microphones, we are hoping to broaden our listenership and capture the ever elusive 'boys, 13-35 demographic'.

Expect a complete revamp as we set sail into a world of the new, never looking back.
