Jeff, Will, and Lucas deliver an hour of meaty aural content that’s sure to set your heart racing. The dorks start off by talking about the games and comics they’ve been consuming, then discuss the nature and appeal of adaptations. Will speaks of the Johnny Mnemonic that could have been, Lucas wants to know why we revisit stuff, and Jeff can salvage X-Men: The Last Stand. The podcast is back and beefier than ever.
