The Nerva Beacon Podcast - Episode 44: K-9 & Co and Adam Martyn!


It's time for another special guest to the Beacon, and this time it's actor, podcaster and Whotuber Adam Martyn who pays us a visit to talk about what Leigh and Glenn talked about last week, K9 & Company! Adam doesn't see this through the lens of rose-tinted nostalgia though, so how will his opinions differ to the two ancient relics from last week? Tune in to find out!

Episode 439 - Transformers: Marvel UK January 1985!


New Year, new Transformers comics! And a new beginning in a very real sense, as we finally get to some original Marvel UK TF content in the form of the very first UK-only story, Man of Iron!

Join Andy from the Smorgaspod and myself as we go through the UK's premier transforming robots comic of the 80s!

The Nerva Beacon Podcast - Episode 43: K-9 & Co and Leigh!


In the first of two episodes covering the 1981 Doctor Who spin-off K-9 & Company, Leigh and Glenn sit down to have a bit of a natter about it, and see if it's aged like a fine wine, or if it's a bit of a tin dog egg?

Next time, WhoTuber Adam Martyn does the same, but from the perspective of someone who didn't see it at the time...

Episode 438 - All the Television We Ever Wanted


Phil joins us for the first time in a little while, to talk about all of the TV programmes announced at the Disney investor's meeting late last year - basically the wishlist of every 80's kid, and all of the Star Wars and Marvel content we could have ever wanted!

Justice For All: Episode 17 - Our Favourite Events!


Join Dave, Amy and Glenn as they go through their favourite DC Event comics, and see if there's any "crossovers" between them!

NOTE: this episode was recorded before Christmas, so apologies for all the excitable Yuletide talk.

Episode 437 - Brad and Glenn Love Star Wars: Mando Edition


Brad from the TFYTC is back with us again, as we take another trip into the Star Wars Universe, this time with particular focus on the excellent Disney+ series, The Mandalorian!

This WAS recorded before the finale though, so at least this time around you'll be spared the sound of two grown men crying over the fate of a Muppet. Next time though...

Episode 436 - Transformers: Marvel UK December 1984!


Marvel UK's Transformers first Christmas was not a very Christmassy affair, as they seemed to have a lot of US Transformers material to get through - you'd think that maybe they could have sacrificed the Machine Man comics, though. Oh well.

Join Andy from the Smorgaspod and myself as we go through the UK's premier transforming robots comic of the 80s!
