Episode XXV: The Galaktacus Awoken! Here's one more (late) holiday gift for your ears, a spoiler-packed episode that delves into the dark and light sides of The Force Awakens. This is the second of our two-part Star Wars podcast featuring some exclusive movie pre-game chatter "live" from the cinema. Plus, we own up to the fact that most (but not all) of our predictions from the last episode didn't come to pass. Give a listen and Happy Holidays (including Life Day) to all!

Episode #26: Best of 2015

The name Galaktacus originates from a youthful mispronunciation of a classic comic book character best known for eating planets. Before all of the blockbuster film franchises and the non-stop spoiler-filled internet coverage there was limited space to openly discuss such topics let alone their proper pronunciations. ("Is it Mag-neato or Mag-net-o?") So with that in mind, what started as a long-running, inside joke has now become a word that best defines the spirit of this podcast—looking at comic books, sci-fi, film, television, music, literature and gaming from the perspective of individuals who have grown up in this evolving "nerd culture" and are amazed by the ways in which it has taken over the mainstream. Galaktacus attempts to eschew that "angry nerd" character and celebrate the good, the bad and the weird that comes along with this current golden age of pop culture. So let the devouring begin!
