We talk about everything, monsters, cats, superheroes, music, dinosaurs, and more! These are smallish, bite-sized episodes that celebrate whatever strikes the humble RX-7's fancy at any given time. We try to get content up daily!

Herculoids 08, Temples and Gladiators!
In which X7, that amazing agent of awesome, reviews the 8th episode of the Herculoids! This could be considered a Halloween episode, since it was broadcast 10-28-1967. There is a lot of slam bang action in the first segment, followed by an almost spooky segment about an ancient being called Trax! Any guesses as to who is going to be sacrificed to bring Trax back to life?

Finally the Rocks have come back to San Angelo! Monolith Monsters
In which X7 rocks out to the 1957 movie The Monolith Monsters. This was aired on Svengoolie last night, and the movie is a lot of fun. Where else can you see alien rocks rise up to giant heights, fall over and do it again and again? Here! We talk about some interesting parts of the movie and some of the great stars in it. Rock on!

The Flash of Earth 90
In which X7 speeds back to the 90s to visit The Flash television series. This was the first teleseries to present a more serious superhero since the late 70s. It works well for the most part. The show is easily and rather inexpensively available to view. It really was good enough to last several seasons, and the character did return in a different Flash series. Who knew that would happen?

7 Song Friday 6-7-24 or time travel with the TARDIS!
In which X7 talks about seven random songs, and begins an experiment about the podcast! These songs are from 1949 to 2024, possibly the widest range of music we have had on an episode. We did skip the 60s today though. Not on purpose! We could not resist using the thumbnail today, though.

King Kong Escapes from Dr. Who!
In which X7 looks at the classic 1967 kaiju eiga (monster movie) King Kong Escapes. It is very loosely based on our previously reviewed King Kong Show. It is a fun adventure movie, with spies and double crosses and best of all, giant monsters!

The New Fantastic Four (improved? NOT)
In which X7 delivers what people of a certain vintage might call a "hot take" on a rather reviled cartoon- The New Fantastic Four from 1978. Someone should have realized replacing the Human Torch with a dopey robot was not going to make fans of the comic book love this cartoon. However, the animation is rather good (for the time frame) and Jack "The King" Kirby did the designs! Add to that decent scripts and good voice actors, it isn't that bad at all. Even HERBIE isn't awful, if you know what to expect.
