Yes, the
picture is correct - this is Episode 19 of the Podcast. We recorded it
back in January, but for various reasons I have not been able to publish
it until now. This makes the image for the Stephen Platinum episode incorrect, but the numbering is right on everything now.
2013
was a huge year for Masters of the Universe and now it's time for me
and Mr. Beau Brown to finally get together and talk about it. Or time
for
me to post our talk about it anyway. We actually recorded this back in
January, but I haven't been able to put it up until now because of the
restrictions I had on my hosting. Thanks to you Phantomaniacs I have
finally
been able to upgrade and I can do more podcasting than ever before.
We'll see how that goes. I have lots of big plans for the future.
As for Masters of the Universe, 2013 was pretty unbelievable. Not only did we get the long-awaited and often thought impossible Castle Grayskull, we also got the Filmation subscription. This was a big surprise - not so much that they were doing Filmation figures, but that they dedicated an entire six figure subscription to it. Going in I really didn't know how many Filmation characters would be popular enough to warrant a six-figure sub, but in the end it turned out it wasn't about the characters' popularity,but the coolness and execution of the figures themselves
Beau and I had a great time talking about the 2013 line - as we always do
with it when it comes to Masters of the Universe. I hope you guys
have fun listening to us.

Needless Things Podcast Episode 17 - Adam WarRock: Racing to the High Five!

I couldn’t be more excited and quite frankly impressed with myself as far as how this year is shaping up so far. I am pretty awesome.
Just let me have this moment.
I
have three podcast episodes in the can already and two more on the
schedule. Three of these episodes are interviews that to me are Big
Deals – dany only, today’s with Adam WarRock, and another one
that you’re just going to have to wait a week or so to find out
about. I’m almost wishing I had more monthly space on Podbean,
but that’s not going to happen because that takes even more money. On a related note, if you like what you hear, ypu can donate by clicking that PayPal button to your right!
I give my whole Adam WarRock story in the show, so I’m not going to repeat it here. The deal is that his Doctor Who Mixtape dropped on January 7th and once I listened to it I was dying to talk to this guy. I didn’t know what format it would be – ideally we’d do an hour long Needless Things and record a ten minute drop-in about The Doctor Mixtape for Earth Station Who. But I’d take whatever I could get. I never know how folks are going to respond to things, so I was ready for anything from no response to a full hour and the drop-in.
Because Adam WarRock is a righteous dude we got the full hour and the drop-in.
Me and Mr. Beau Brown had a great conversation with the guy. We discussed his process, his nerd influences, and comic books.
Listen
now! Adam WarRock gives you his comic book recommendations! How can
you go wrong?
