When the Music Stops: TRON

Yes folks, all the way from 1982, comes TRON, a story about a computer programmer who gets digitised and sent into a another dimension, where he has to save everything from the bad guys, especially David Warner! Interesting fact - Corey Burton took inspiration from Warner's character in TRON when he was creating the voice of G1 Shockwave in the cartoon. Well I found it interesting.

Episode 157

Glenn's back from his hollybobs this week, so he and Phil discuss what it's really like to be a passenger on the Queen Mary 2, and how Glenn liked New York and all of it's sights, including going to see the Ghostbuster firehouse! We also bring you all the news that's important this week in our favourite franchises, as well as bringing you up to speed on all of the football news, it would seem. Maybe we need to make a football podcast too. Nah. That'd never catch on.

WTMS: Transformers - The Movie

This week, it's the turn of what I'm guessing was some people's first experience of still the best Transformers movie - the animated 1986 spectacular that saw the debuts of Hot Rod, Kup, Blurr, and of course the most awesome Autobot of them all - Ultra Magnus! Spoiler - Optimus Prime dies in this one. Just a warning for those of a nervous disposition there.

Episode 155

The full gang's back this week (for the last time in a little while), and the guys discuss many, many things, including the weather, sport (Andy Murray winning a tennis, for example), and the state of broadband connectivity vs. dialup. They also find out what YOU used to be in the playground (along with who you may have injured), as well as all the news that's worth knowing in the wide, geeky world - and considering it was Botcon a couple of weeks ago, that's quite a lot of stuff to begin with. We also find out what the guys used to do on their summer holidays - long story short, everyone except Glenn did interesting stuff. Glenn watched cartoons and was grumpy. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

WTMS: Super Powers - Battle at the Earth's Core

This week sees the Super Powers of the DC Universe take on the mighty Darkseid and his forces, as they battle, quite literally, at the very core of the Earth! Who will win? Who will lose? Will they ever release this collection of figures again (because they seem to have been quite cool)?

Who Ya Gonna Call? Well apparently it's the Real Ghostbusters, who, in this week's daring adventure, find out that Peter's dad has discovered a ghost frozen in ice. Unfortunately, he decides to bring it into town where it thaws out and causes trouble for the Ghostbusters!
