Sci-Fi Party Line #102 Torchwood, True Blood & More! (Lipstick Aliens Reunion)


“I had a feeling that maybe they invented this story line just to explain why Jack is older and why he aged ’cause gee… he’s looking a bit rough Cat.”
-Lynne (@lynnegryphon)

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[SPOILER ALERT ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

Today is a Lipstick Aliens reunion of sorts. Lynne joined Cat for a discussion about “Touchwood” and True Blood (@19:15). Later on (@35:18), we caught up on the other shows that Lynne is watching: Camelot, Game of Thrones (Jason Momoa is gross now), Legend of the Seeker, Falling Skies, The Walking Dead, Lost Girl, Teen Wolf, Merlin, Alphas, Sarah Jane Adventures, Bar Karma, Psychoville, Misfits, Outcasts, Sanctuary …and YES, Lynne watches *gasps* Haven! It was a very fun episode. Enjoy!

Sci-Fi Party Line #101 Transformers, Torchwood, Eureka


Transformers 3 had twice the effects and half the story of the any of the other ones.”
-Carl (@robotcast)

“Didn’t we have a Transformer transform in to a kitchen sink at one point?”
-Cat (@fancyfembot)

Sci-Fi Party Line #100 Madness in podcast form

“It’s a sci-fi gumbo of a lot of things from yesteryear kind of thrown in and left to simmer.”
-Eric (@BullittWHO) on ‘Super 8’.

Eric: Does anyone know who played the alien?
Carl (@robotcast): Probably the same person who played ‘Cloverfield’.

“My mouth said Bill Gates but my heart says Steve Jobs.”
-Cat (@fancyfembot) on her ‘Pirates of Silicon Valley’ flub.

“My take on the movie is that it was like ‘Inception’ if it was told by an idiot.”
-Will (@LW_Will) on ‘Sucker Punch’.

“The best part of ‘Transformers 3’ was the ‘Captain America’ trailer.”
-Charles (@hal2814)

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[SPOILER ALERT ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

This is our craziest show yet!

For the 100th show, we did a live episode with nine voice participants and a handful of chat participants via Talkshoe. It was a verbal Road Warrior-styled discussion that was the most fun we’ve had on Sci-Fi Party Line history. The guests were the usual suspects of Carl, Eric, Will, Darrell, Hanako, Alex, Charles and Phineas. Thanks to some of the folks in the chat room: Merlin, Datalore, Willisgirl, Becky and more.

Today’s vocabulary words are schmaltz and Benetton.

There were some audio issues in places but power through it, they go away. We tried to be PG-13 but it ended up being R. We talked about and spoiled Super 8, X-Men: First Class (and how the “black man” always dies first), Thor, Falling Skies, Game of Thrones, Caprica, True Blood and Camelot. We mentioned Transformers 3 and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows but did not spoil them. There were side discussions about The Uncanny X-Men, Michael Ironside, pickup trucks and old man Carl shows up.

Prepare for CatConOne in 2020. Easter egg at the end for those who were there.

Thank you all for helping us get to 100 episodes!
