Thax, Jack and Bluestocking are here to talk Steampunk again! Already off topic with our experience in higher education and cost accounting? We stall for a guest, but it doesn't work out. We do get to talk about a great new book, The Kingdoms, that plays with concepts of timelines. Circque du Soleil is touring again, and can be found free on the 'tubes. Netflix has come out with Arcane, an Ay-May-Zing new show based on characters from the League of Legends video game. Jungle Cruise is now streaming on Disney+, so check that out too!

Thax, Jack and Bluestocking are joined by Omar, the M0vie N1nja, to chew the fat. We discuss the dangers of buying cryptocurrency based on TV shows, and our Halloween experiences. A new children's show on Netflix that might be too scary for grownups, a steampunk comic that may have been overlooked, and some of Omar's favorite goofball films!

Texas Steampunk Connection Beyond EP20

recorded October 19, 2021

Thax, Jack and Erika salute the passing of our founder, Flavio, who drove this podcast for the last four (five?)  years. He was a friend, a traveling companion, a cheerleader for our victories, he was always ready to jump in with both feet to any adventure that came up. We meander through Texas Barbecue to the matrix to the latest boomer "Steampunk is dead" article. We're going to push forward with the show Flavio started and hope he approves from wherever he is watching now.
Also... I should have really introduced Erika with the show. I didn't know how active she'd be in this episode. She was a real great addition that I didn't expect at the top of the show. Thank you, Erika.

 

Here is a really nice slide show that was made by Flavio's friend Megan.

Flavio, Thax and guest host, Natalie MacTavish share drinks and talk about sour beer, scary sirens, and sweet doggos. Steampunk November has been cancelled... again, thanks to Covid. Steve Metze' Lovecraft Kickstarter is blowing up. We also talk about a comic, The Ballad of Sleeping Beauty, a short apocalyptic animated series called Autodale, and how steampunk Wicked the musical really got. Also a weird horror game called Bendy and the Ink Machine. Is this for kids?

We have a guest Steve Metz to talk about his new Kickstarter for a Lovecraft-esque spellbook. This book is also a hand made artistic prop of the highest quality.
