Episode 141 - The Unpop Culture

WEEK IN GEEK: In a fit of nostalgia, Andrew picks up The Sims 3 again (starts at 1:49) while Dan can't get past a nit-pick to enjoy anything Netflix's Castlevania has to offer (20:46).

SDCC 2017: (34:04) It was a big weekend for nerd culture as the San Diego Comic Con dropped a bunch of new trailers on the world.

Justice League, and Steven Spielberg's Ready Player One.

Shortcast 27 - Clap 'n Go

Since they had so much to discuss, an entire "Shortcast" (despite it being basically the length of an entire episode) was dedicated to talking about the finale of the latest season of Doctor Who. SPOILERS BEWARE. NON-DOCTOR WHO FANS BEWARE (come back next week). Much talk is made about Stephen Moffat's tenure as showrunner, the themes of the finale, and what Andrew and D. want out of the teased Christmas special.

NOTICE:

D. Bethel will be exhibiting at the inaugural Sac Indie Expo in Sacramento this weekend. He's looking forward to it not only because he gets to chat and hang out with fans and other local creators, but also due to the fact that the event is being held a phenomenal local brewery, Big Sexy Brewing Company. SIE will be on Saturday, July 15 from 12-5pm. It's free to get in, so if you're in the area, you have no excuse to not go.
