Fan X Fan Show: 'The Flash' 221 - "The Runaway Dinosaur"

Sorry for the wait!  The NBA playoffs have taken up some of our recording time, but uh... we're good on that now.  Travis and make appropriate time to gush over the greatness that was 'Captain America: Civil War'.  We talk characters, motivations, sounds and sights of what I'm going to say is the best superhero movie ever (Trav refrains from such declarations, but he also thought Eric Bana 'Hulk' movie was good smh).  We don't dive TOO DEEP into spoiler territory, but when we do, we give very fair warning.  I'll tell you about the web series I worked on this week, and how great the team I worked with made the experience.  We're nearing the end of our Flash season.  Real Tears.  Barry's in Speedforce limbo, and the team's split between getting him back, making sure Jessie hasn't kicked the bucket, and fending off a previously deceased man made of metal.  Barry meets the ghosts of cosmos past, present, and future as he tries to find his way home, and Joe does a very obvious test with Wally to determine the effects of the Accelerator on him, and Zoom has a legion of funny haired baddies at his disposal!  All this and more on this week's Fan X Fan show!

Fan X Fan Show: Spring Break #3 (Wrestlemania Edition)

* Originally posted 4/13/16*

It's still spring break for the Fan X's, as our beloved Flash decided he needed a bit more time in the oven.  Luckily, we get to tell you about our super exciting weekend in Dallas for Wrestlemania!  We take you through our parallel trips to meet up, the journey that was the Dallas road trip, our fantastic meetup at the Kung Fu Saloon, and of course, the epic tailgate leading to the big event.  It wasn't all sweet, and Trav tells you about his often stalled journey home, I fall down in hallways and steal footballs but get away with it because I'm so gosh darn handsome, and I let you know about a very special pair of $300 sunglasses.  We also take a bit of time to talk THE AUDACITY OF A BATMAN V. SUPERMAN EXTENDED CUT, Suicide Squad re-shoots, Desiigner having a single that charted higher than any Future single, and why your feedback helps keep the show going.  All this and more on this week's Fan X Fan Show!

Fan X Fan Show: 'The Flash' 219 - "Back to Normal"

"Hey, I didn't do a whole lot this week, this should be a pretty fast show!"  Yeah... never. "Panda" is the #1 song in the country this week, and I try to explain that because kids are dumb, it's really not Desiigner's fault.  I explain my excitement for the upcoming Drake/Future tour, that has it's first stop here in Austin.  We both commit to listening to "Views from the 6" this weekend, so we can give an honest review next week.  Travis fills us on his continued love affair with "Ant-Man", and his great time at a Polica concert.  I talk about the difficulties of eating five times a day, our upcoming flagship episodes, and the homie's new comic series that just went into print!  On this week's Flash episode, we see Barry adjust back to life as a normal, the young Miss Wells understand the value in killing the bad guys, and a "flash-off" between Our titular hero and his potential running buddy (see what I did there?)!  Our villain of the week seems to grow old with anger, and boy is that Zoom one scarred supervillain!  We THINK we've figured out just who's behind that mask, to varying degrees of excitement.  Caitlyn gets to flex her acting muscles, playing both versions of herself against one another, and Earth-2 Wells keeps on being the cold SOB we know and love.  This, and a preview of our possible "Flashpoint" powers restoration scene, on this week's South Kongress Fan X Fan Show!

Fan X Fan Show: 'The Flash' 216 - "Trajectory"

Did you miss us? A tiny bit? OF COURSE you did!  After a two week break, thanks to wine (dark liquor) , women and song, Travis and I are back to talk comics, TV, and of course, 'The Flash'!  We get to hear about his awesome time at the Black Podcasters Meetup, and some of the great conversation he got to be part of.  I'll tell you about the 6 day vice binge that was the South by Southwest music and arts festival and how I'm too old for this (redacted), word to Danny Glover.  I saw season 2 of Marvel's 'Daredevil', and I gush over how great Jon Berthnal's Punisher is.  No spoilers though, as some of us move at different paces.  We talk early Batman v. Superman reviews, and how your love, or hate, of the 'Watchmen' film may have an effect on your star rating.  This week's episode of 'The Flash' introduces a new speedster, and tackles the question "why shouldn't we all just do drugs?"  one vial at a time.  All the science brains come together to solve the Zoom Conundrum, Iris plays a game of "waste his time 2016", and Travis refuses to see what all the girls see in Wally West.  Jessie Wells makes a life changing decision, we find out Beyoncé runs more than one world, and Kanye is Kanye, no matter the universe.  All this, and more, on this week's Fan x Fan Show! (wanted to work in “speed kills” somewhere, but eh…)

Fan X Fan Show: Spring Break #1

We're doing the very best we can to fight off speedster withdrawal!  It's something of a spring break, as we'll have a three week gap before the next new episode of 'The Flash'.  Luckily, Travis finally decided he actually does things between podcasts, so you get to hear all about our exciting weeks!  Trav finally saw 'Deadpool', so we get to talk broken ankles, CGI done right, and all the inside jokes he didn't realize were happening!  I ask him once and for all if that's an appropriate film for the Cam Jr.'s and Trav Jr.'s of the world (the answer is no) and I try to sell him on the McAvoy/Fassbender X-Films.  He talks all about the awesomeness that is Philly's Amalgam Comics, 'The Ultimates', and 29 Days of BlackCosplay!  I threw a WILD pizza party for a bunch of 9 year olds.  No joke behind that, that's really what happened.  I'll tell you about their love of cheese pizza and spitballs.  Also, the LONG AWAITED second 'South Kongress' Podcast episode drops this weekend, and I'll preview a heart to heart conversation built on vodka, tears and trap music.  After we all of that, we start our two part conversation about the surprise hit show, 'Legends of Tomorrow' by detailing the different characters and their motivations.  Flash may be on break, but one (physics shattering) monkey don't stop no show!!!

Fan X Fan Show: 'The Flash' 214 - "Escape from Earth-2"

Prison Break, because Captain Cold and Heatwave are things here.  We talk 'Deadpool' being good not great, Colossus not having a coat of Ajax (Zing) breaking the fourth wall, and all the fun things I ate on Valetine's Day (Zing).  We are getting CLOSE AND CLOSER TO WHO ZOOM IS, thanks to drugs, jail drumming, and neck examinations!  Heroes rise, heroes fall, and Iris has a new boss with the beard of a God.  Barry, on any Earth, proves to be the best thing ever, and even more parallels between our two worlds.  All this, and I spend a good amount of time telling YOU why YOU should do your own podcast, or at least appear on one!!!  Enjoy this week's Fan x Fan Show!!!

Fan X Fan Show: 'The Flash' 213 - "Welcome to Earth-2"

OH MY GOD THE MULTIVERSE IS AMAZING!!!  Team Flash has a plan to track stop Zoom once and for all, and that path is littered with the best easter eggs ever.  We're talking Kryptonian Women, Super Friends on speed dial, jewelry from Future Legions, AND A FLASH OF TV'S PAST!!!  Too much of a description would kill the vibe (see what I did there) so to avoid spoilers, I'll leave the rest inside the episode.  Trav and I also talk the goings on of the Superbowl, and why you shouldn't take Junior to go see 'Deadpool' this weekend.  And if you're a pro wrestling buff, we talk about THAT OTHER show we do weekly!  Enjoy!

Fan X Fan Show - CW's "The Flash" (Season 2, Episode 8)

Before we get into the greatness that was "Legends of Today", we tell you what we did yesterda.... uh. that last two weeks, as we didn't have an episode to cover.  Travis (@travlord) is enamored with the alternate WW2 outcome universe show "The Man in the High Castle", and I talk about my love affair with "Fargo".  We talk BRIEFLY on "Marvel's Jessica Jones", as we intend to really go in on i this weekend.  After some fun discussion, we get into the heart of this week's episode.  We try to rationalize a hot, ambiguously ethnic reincarnated priestess residing in Wisconsin, the guy who gave Abraham the match for the burning bush and possibly told King Arthur "let's make the table round, and how shooting folks holding what LOOKS like a gun is even bad for fictional cops.  I'm admittedly WAY behind on "Arrow", so there were welcome surprises from Ollie, Speedy, Felicity and the crew.  Also - BABY MOMMA DRAMA is on deck!  All this, and Carter "Mr. Steal yo Girl" Hall on this week's Fan x Fan show!
