Next Guest! Tom Katers!

3 Comments

Our next guest, as many, many of you have requested, is Tom Katers of  podcast fame. You may know him from shows like Tom Vs. the Flash! Tom Vs. JLA! Previously seen (heard?) on Around Comics! And currently, a columnist at iFanboy. His Milwaukee Brewers have also eviscerated my Pittsburgh Pirates this month in a shameful, embarrassing manner.

We will be recording with Tom on Thursday, April 29 around 9:30 PM Eastern time. If you have questions, email them or tweet them to the show! You know where to find us!

Sad Face Goes Here

3 Comments

Sorry guys. We are not going to have an episode next week. It’s my fault, with work piling up for the weekend and editing time looking grim, I had to make the executive decision and say no show for you this coming week. I welcome slaps and/or wacks with wooden sticks.

Would it make you feel better that after next week, we have five (that’s right FIVE) pretty big, awesome, crazy, funtastic and radical guests already scheduled? And that going up to HeroesCon, we are going to see a lot of new faces ’round these parts? Would it? WOULD IT?!

All that I can say is sorry, Charlie. Check out Awesomed by Comics if you want some comic book podcast goodness for your ears to devour for the week when no Chris, no Euge, no haters, and no Flash Gordon music. Pour a 40 out.

CORRECTION: In a previous episode, it was mentioned that friend of the show, Dr. K, was NOT a fan of Speed Racer. Turns out, he IS a fan of Speed Racer. An awesome fan. So stop sending him hate mail. We are sorry, Andy. Though, THAT one was more Chris’s fault.

Geekspeak Can Suck It

I made an appearance on the GeekSpeak podcast to talk about Adam WarRock and the general rundown of geek news that the guys over there do every week. You should check it out, b/c I also did a song for them as well. I also talk a lot about the DC Circuit and the FCC. It’s how I do.

Sims appeared on GeekSpeak long ago, actually BEFORE War Rocket Ajax ever existed! You should check that show out here.

And maybe you should join the facebook fan page for War Rocket Ajax, if you want. Just sayin’.

Episode 26 – Eisner Nominated

Euge and Chris are back this week, and we mostly just talk about nonsense. Comics come up, sorta. It’s a shorter episode with new theme lyrics and more twitter questions than you can shake a stick at.
