EPISODE 219: DRAGONCON 2015 FLASHBACK PART 2: A TRADITION IS KEPT AND A PANEL BREAKS OUT




The flashbacks to DragonCon 2015 continue this week with a fun conversation and a surprise panel.  Joining me for the first hour is my semi-regular co-host The Irredeemable Shag.  You know Shag, right?  Head honcho of Firestorm Fan and one of the founders of the Fire and Water Network?  It seems that we've known each other for a solid decade now and the conversation we had was supposed to be about that but since it's us things fell off the rails quickly.  The topics may be slightly out of date but it was a lot of fun and you even get our impression of drunken DC creators planning Infinite Crisis.

After that is a surprise panel.  I mentioned last week that Joe Crowe and Gary Mitchel are the directors of the American Sci-Fi Classics track at DragonCon.  That track is full of fun programming but sometimes there isn't enough room for everything we want to talk about.  Sometimes a panel happens spontaneously.  Such a panel happened between two other panels one night and I was lucky to be a part of it.  So sit back and listen to me, Tegan, Gary Mitchel, James Palmer and Jessa Phillips as we talk about the Highlander television series and movies.

Did I type movies?  I meant movie.  Because according to Tegan there can be only one. 

There's even a sing-a-long at one point.  That's how crazy things got.

Next Time: The final DragonCon 2015 Flashback!  This time it's all about the never released Fantastic Four film from 1994!
