Be careful what you wish for… Ahhh, who amongst us hasn’t fallen prey to this old adage? I myself once dreamed of a world where I would have free access to endless Taco Bell and Mountain Dew Livewire - alas, I had to endure an apocalypse in order to get those wishes. Ah well, it was worth it.But, sadly, the same can’t be said for my good buddy, Ryan. The fool wished on a Zoltar machine at the local Bartertown carnival and now he’s got to deal with an abnormally shrunken head, instead of an

We were on our way to the Michael Bay Film Festival when our flight was hijacked by former Immortan of the Wasteland, Nick Hoof. I think we, and by we I mean the brave workers from Apocalypse Video - Ryan, Cody, and myself - will be okay; it’s the other passengers on the flight that I’m worried about. Nick has said that he’s going to subject us to one bad movie

Captain’s Log, Stardate 1709.2After a long hiatus, the Trek-Cast is back with the season one classic, Balance of Terror. I am excited for the submarine inspired action sequences, but can’t help but feel uneasy… I suspect that one of my crew is a Romulan spy - I can’t prove it, but what I can prove is that someone is stealing my hair plugs and selling them on the black market at outrageous prices.

All the pressure to deliver on a fun holiday themed episode after the combined promotions of Hot Dave’s Summer Film Fest and Shocktober?!
