Episode 401 - Best Bungle Bears


Jenny from World of Crap is back with us, this time to talk all about one of her favourite subjects, that of Rainbow's very own Bungle Bear, and this time, it's all about those brave souls who have portrayed him over the years (and one who definitely didn't, but had to announce that fact).

We also mention Jenny's Kickstarter to produce a shiny new World of Crap Annual, so keep your eyes peeled for that - coming soon!

Justice For All: Episode 8 - The Triumphant Return


We're back - yes it's been a while, but Justice For All is back with you. In this first episode back it's all about catching up, with DC comics, movies, TV shows, and various other media!

Yes, we also talk about Marvel's New Warriors. How could we not?

Episode 400 - Man AND Machine!


It's episode 400! And I wish that the circumstances of that were better than they are right now, because it's weird out there right now. But Back to the Eighties will be going for the duration, so stay tuned!

This week sees myself and John "Bordersdude" Grieve take on a subject often neglected here, that of the Centurions, those men and machines that, when combined, become power EXTREME!

The Nerva Beacon Podcast - Episode 31: Doctor Who And The Dinopeoples


Leigh and Glenn are taking a look at the Third Doctor's second ever story in this episode, "Doctor Who And The Silurians" - so get ready for action, adventure, reptile people with limited peripheral vision, and the Doctor trolling petty bureaucrats!

The blueprint for his whole era, you might say. We love it.

Episode 399 - Sanic Panic


Rejoice all, as Jenny from World of Crap is back to grace our lugholes, but wait - there'a a twist! She brings with her fanfiction of the Sonic the Hedgehog kind, to warp our brains and confuse our souls.

Needless to say, we're only poking gentle fun at the efforts of these would-be writers, at least they're being creative, right? Also, this episode is most definitely NSFW. Like you wouldn't BELIEVE.

Episode 398 - Horrorific 80s!


We have a brand new guest joining us this week, all the way from that there Canada! Mandy from Little Geek Lost drops in to talk all about one of her specialist subjects, that of 80's horror.

There's also some UK/Canada crossover, with some inevitable Degrassi talk, and also that weird Huckleberry Finn series...

The Nerva Beacon Podcast - Episode 30: You Gotta Have Faith


It's Nerva Beacon time tonight, and to mark the passing of the late, great Nicholas Parsons, Leigh and Glenn take a look at a piece of JNT's stunt casting that backfired in a rather lovely way, as we brave the Curse of Fenric.

We also have a quick look at how season 12 was going at time of recording, of course, and set ourselves up for the season finale - which now we all know about, and we'll take a look at that next time...

Episode 397: 10th Anniversary Episode Part 2


Well, that's it - we're 10 years old! For a decade we've been telling you all how great the Eighties were, and sharing all our memories of the Best Decade Ever.

And joining us on this very special show is  the guy whose idea it was in the first place: The Mighty Jer Bear is back!

Join us please, as two middle-aged men who should know better discuss just how much better it is now for us nostalgia geeks in 2020, than it was in 2010...

Thanks for listening, and here's to the next 10 years!
