Hey All You Zombies Episode #50 We are back from summer break with so much to talk about. Richard shows off the creepy, little doll sent to him AFTER his review of The Conjuring, we compare notes on Shark Week's outcry-inducing fakery, welcome the new Dr. Who, test out Johnny Depp & Gore Verbinski's theory about Lone Ranger's failure, and try to choose between eating lab-grown beef or insects in our burgers. Here's the links from our show: Music Boxes In Horror Movies Ed and Lorainne Warren in the movies Cultured Beef Cooking Insects With Nordic Food Labs Unbelievable Science iPhone/iPad app with Bee LT Sandwhich Recipe

We pull out the survival bag this week for World War Z, both the movie and the book, and for Paula Deen's cooking which is surprisingly not the reason behind her troubles with the Food Network. Plus, Richard gets ready for the new David Bowie exhibit coming to the AGO, a condition for which there is no cure.

Hey All You Zombies!! Episode 48 - Zombies, Superman, & The NSA As World War Z approaches, Richard puts together a collection of little-known zombie movies and we discuss our new lack of privacy with agencies like the NSA listening in, Microsoft's new mad used game rules for the Xbox One, and the many actors who have played Superman over the years.

Hey All You Zombies #47 After Earth, Red Wedding, Dr. Who Richard Crouse's birthday vacation in New York means that we skipped a week, but also that he has some cool stores to share about close-up magic, Alan Cumming's MacBeth, and rare record shops for this week. We also ponder the After Earth's monstrous failure in theatres, Game of Throne's RedWedding shocker, and the potential for Dr. Who to be played by a woman.

What do you mean, Flash Badger approaching? It's here! The final mix and music video of Mr Weebl and Brian May's protest anthem for Team Badger. As we mentioned in this week's show, the Queen guitarist teamed up with the badger-meme creator to send out a call for help in their fight for critical thinking in response to the UK's proposed badger cull. Making a special appearance is Brian Blessed reprising his role as Prince Vultan. Regardless whether any of this makes sense to you, I think it's an awesome piece of internet culture. Go Team Badger! Go Badger Boys!

Hey All You Zombies!! Episode 46 - Space Oddities, Spock Songs, & Badgers Too many fun things to discuss this week. There's Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield's poignant version of Space Oddity, the one-and-only Mr. Spock (but wait there's two now), the odd attacks aimed at Angelina Jolie's mastectomy, and Queen guitarist Brian May's creative Badger campaign. Let us know what you think!

Hey All You Zombies!! Ep 45 As we post this, Cody Wilson's 3D Printed Pistol file has been downloaded more than 100,000 times. This week we touch upon what is surely a complex and unpredictable news. We also enjoy the way Ray Harryhausen has been remembered this week, offer impressions of Iron Man 3, and wonder about The Great Gatsby, Downton Abbey, and Pride & Prejudice & Zombies.

Mindscapes: The Woman Who Can't Recognize Her Face

It's Record Store Day! Just a reminder that today's the day to hit your local independent vinyl shoppe to celebrate Record Store Day. There will be a number of cool special edition vinyls and picture discs to grab, Last year Richard picked up this awesome David Bowie picture disc which he talks about it in our first episode. David Bowie has another slick disc for this year's event, so you can bet Richard will be hunting around the stores for that one too.

An Acrobatic Fly (BFI)

If you haven't seen this yet, you're in for a treat. In Fangoria's new YouTube show Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian gets a privileged tour of Rick Baker's Display Room. It's everything you could hope to see from the man behind countless legendary effects in An American Werewolf In London, Star Wars, Men In Black, and well, the list goes on and on. The bonus? Some fantastic commentary by Bob Burns.

Richard's Jurassic Park 3D Review Brian Cox on Christmas Island

Have a listen and find out how Glen Mazzara went from being a hospital administrator to showrunner of one of the best shows on TV. Hear is thoughts about screenwriting, Roger Ebert, and his reaction to Norman "Daryl" Reedus becoming a sex symbol.

It's been our most popular topic and so we're devoting an entire episode to the Season 3 finale of The Walking Dead. It's been a whirl of redneck redemption, psychopathic nuttiness, and a taut moment involving monkey toes and pliers. Too bad we're going to have to wait until the Fall to see it continue.

The Ontario Specialty Company Is Now Open Online! Our favourite shoppe for retro goods, wind-up toys, and novelties is back open for business as a web store. This is the place Richard introduced and we explored in episodes two and three. Make sure to check out the video they have of some of their classic wind-ups and then expect to lose a few hours going through their many categories including their international toys, inflatables, magic tricks, sunglasses, and more. The web is full of Geek stores, but rarely ones in Canada where shipping is reasonable. Let's hope they do well enough to expand.
