Utility Belt Podcast

Hallam has a deep seated addiction to hope. Hope that DC's reboot of the New 52 reboot won't be a bad thing. That's right. A reboot of a reboot is happening and we need to talk about it. This intervention takes a turn, however, when Hallam may not be the one who needs it. Plus, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure talk and a shocking, adventure filled series of events at the end!

Featuring Hallam Rickett singing the Squirrel Girl theme song and everyone else having a hangover. Plus the debut of a new game to play on the podcast named “Pop CultHUH?” where we reveal the woeful gaps in our knowledge of this newfangled world and causes Kimi to weep live on microphone.   Twitter: twitter.com/radioUB Facebook: facebook.com/utilitybeltradio Tumblr: utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com utilitybeltradio@gmail.com

Christmas has gone and the New Year is upon us, but the UB crew are still slinging down drinks at Big O's bar. Join us for a natter about cartoons - we actually attempt serious discussion about Bee & Puppycat, Gravity Falls, Steven Universe and more. Not to mention the usual chatter about comics, video games, wrestling and the JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE SEGMENT. See you in 2015, NERDDDSSSSS! http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com /

Hallam’s fiddled with too many dials on his Multiverse machine and there may be one too many of us in the room. Whoops. The saga of the Rob Liefield app continues, we speak of Marvel and DC’s big multiverse events, why Guardians of the Galaxy is milking that soundtrack cash cow and Kimi’s account of WWE Live in Dublin. Gripes about Batgirl’s handling, praises for all the Spiderman (Spidermen? Spider-Gwen?) plus Gravity Falls, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure and EXPLICIT TAG fun.    Special intro and outro by Oliver Morris. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

Jack, our resident master of the weird and bizarre has taken the entire Utility Belt crew (including the half asleep producer, Kimi) into the House of Mystery, where they discuss the weirdest and most bizarre things for this podcast. Hallam talks about developments in Spidergirl and Gotham Academy, Oliver talks about the horror of the Jack Kirby case and advertising, Kimi talks about the horrors she grew up with as depicted in the Filipino komix Trese and Jack gives the potted history of horror comics. Plug your headphones in, and beware the spiders. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

Issue 0 is upon the internet with Jack, Hallam and Ollie trying to figure out why Rob Liefeld has an app. Hype abound for Spiderman/Miles Morales, Multiversity, Skullgirls and the scary scary game demo that is PT. Plus, a lesson on how to pose like a JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure character! So plug your headphones in, settle down with a Mountain Dew and join us. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

As we switch over to the new format, Kimi and Jack have a look at All Star Western starring Jonah Hex. The Palmiotti-Gray penned series comes to its (untimely) end in August 2014. A series that remained relatively unchanged when DC heralded the New 52, it was the more intriguing of comics in DC's lineup with consistently solid stories about the wild frontierlands of America and a main character of dubious morality who enjoyed a good drink. What's to dislike? http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

Your freshly graduated radio hosts converge on a summer's evening to talk about comics. Batgirl redesigns, Constanstine television show boolsheet, Marvel shakeups and shakedowns in a pre-SDCC lull. And a big announcement about the shiny new future of Utility Belt. We beat DC to a reboot! http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

David S. Goyer is a horrible person. Confirmed! He slags off Marvel's She-Hulk and DC's Martian Manhunter! But in attempting to destroy this great evil, will the noble Utility Belt team succumb to despair?!? They do. They feel pretty sad by the end of it. It’s kinda funny. With guest Station Manager Oliver Morris. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

THERE IS NO COMIC BOOK NEWS. But Hallam is back. So Utility Belt talks about everything else. The aftermath of Free Comic Book Day, Comixology, Wrestling, Extended DC Universe, Fantastic Four, Neil Gaiman + Sandman Overture. 2000 AD AND WORST COMIC BOOK CHARACTER MOMENTS. With guest Station Manager Oliver Morris. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

Free stuff! Yay! Or Nay? It's a Utility Belt special where Hallam is absent (the bellend) and it's up to Jack along with Red Radio Station Manager Oliver Morris to look through what's being distributed. Also includes talk of Hugh Jackman meeting "Magneto" on WWE's Monday Night Raw, the singularity(?!) of DC comic book universes and comic book film news of the Marvel variety. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

From the Archive 1 is an episode from Utility Belt's recent past where Hallam and Jack talk about anything and everything comic book and geek related. Mostly Dredd. And Batman. And threats to re-enact Justice League for the next episode. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

After a brief absence, Utility Belt's podcast is back! This was originally going to be the pilot episode but we decided to put it now instead. Cause you need to know about the worst and best comics of all time. With surprise choices on both sides, it's a special timeless episode you don't wanna miss! This guest episode was edited by Oliver Morris. Questions, comments, complaints?

Helping people is just what superheroes do. So in this podcast, we look beyond the pages at the brave and the valiant things that superheroes have done to help sick kids. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

NETFLIX MAKES US SQUEE. DEFENDERS ARE GREAT. COMICS ARE GREAT. YAAAAY! http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com

A little extra to start us off - this features Jack Fitzpatrick wandering around the October MCM London ComicCon and giving his take on things. Oh, and he repeatedly reminds Hallam that he sucks. http://utilitybeltradio.tumblr.com
