Tired of the apocalypse? So are we! That's why we started a podcast about FUN sci-fi. No "doom and gloom" science-fiction allowed. We'll put a smile on your face as we discuss FUN sci-fi movies, TV shows, video games, events, and more. Forget your troubles and contemplate more important questions like, "Do you ever really need to clean a hot tub time machine, or can you just continually jump back in time to when it was clean?" We break-down the most fun moments in sci-fi and provide geeky insight into what makes fun sci-fi so great. Every other Wednesday we host this sci-fi party and you're invited! Yes, we've been attending sci-fi conventions since before you could post about them on Facebook, but we're dedicated to discussing the best of classic and NEW sci-fi fun! Don't miss out... Join the Super Sci-Fi Party!

A crazy Star Wars holiday show with acrobats, rock bands, and virtual sexy sea monkeys? It was 1978 and the “rules” of the Star Wars universe had not been written in stone yet, so it was a case of “anything goes”! Some call it the worst Star Wars show ever created, but we call it a weird, wacky, FUN time capsule! Who would ever think of combining Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher with Bea Arthur, Art Carney, Diahaan Carroll, and Harvey Korman?!
We break down all the FUN of the Star Wars Holiday Special including neon acrobats, Itchy and Lumpy wookiees, Jefferson Starship, virtual reality sexy sea monkeys, an alien cooking show, a bad Max Headroom wannabe, Art Carney tricking The Empire, Princess Leia singing, enough false endings to make LOTR jealous, and Golden Girl Bea Arthur tending bar at Mos Eisley Cantina! We also share our own “Top 10 Alternative Ideas For Star Wars Holiday Specials”!

Can experimental army taco meat turn a college Halloween party into a zombie apocalypse?! It can on the TV show "Community" in the episode "Epidemiology" (or as we lovingly call it: "ZOMBIE ATTACK"!) In this episode of the Super Sci-Fi Party podcast we breakdown all the FUN of this fantastic sci-fi Halloween episode of one of the greatest comedies to ever appear on television (in our humble opinion).
We'll put a smile on your face as we discuss all the moments that make this parody of zombie movie tropes spectacular fun. We also get a bit side-tracked with some interesting related stories from our real lives. Hear us discuss what makes "Community" such an amazing show, the greatest on-screen "bromance" of all time, sexy Halloween costumes, pranking Halloween store workers, George Takei, a vow to watch "Rick & Morty", Human Centipede, Childish Gambino, why ABBA is the best zombie music, our personal beef with William Shatner, how the "power of imagination" cannot defeat zombies, and much, much MORE!

A fangirl in 2062 enters a song-writing contest and wins a date with her space-age music idol: Jet Screamer! So let's turn on the anti-gravity floor and dance near the ceiling! The Flintstones might rock; but The Jetsons swing, jam, and blast-off in this retro look at the future of teen idols.
The Jetsons showed us a vision of the future that was neither utopian nor a nightmare but rather was very rooted in the 1962 culture from which it came. Sure, you still have to fight rush-hour traffic, but you do it in your flying car! Considering The Jetsons was an animated sitcom, they sure were accurate about many of their future sci-fi gadgets... People make video calls, watch videos on their watches, robotic vacuums clean the carpets, and you can talk to anyone through your computer. The Jetsons either accurately predicted or inspired many awesome future gadgets!
In this particular Jetson's episode, we get to see a very retro space-age rockstar named Jet Screamer. Sure he can use anti-gravity to fly around when singing his songs, but his music is more swinging jazz and 1960s pop idol than the electronic music of the future. Eep, op, ork, ah-ah!
We break-down all the FUN! We discuss the future-retro music, The Amazing Johnathan, the odd connection between the Jetsons and The Andy Griffith Show, the 360-degree drumset "doughnut", where the flying cars are, the YouTube conspiracy theory linking The Jetsons with the Flinstones, and MUCH MORE!
Get onboard our rocking retro rocket and leave your problems behind for a while. We will put a smile on your face as we discuss the wonderful sci-fi campiness of The Jetsons - A Date With Jet Screamer! Don't miss-out, daddy-o. Baby, baby baby, ah, ah, ah!

“Star Trek: Lower Decks” is a totally FUN animated sci-fi comedy series set in the Star Trek universe! Yes, you read that correctly! Listen as we breakdown the first episode “Second Contact”. Hear about the controversy the series has caused among Star Trek fans and our opinions about the whole enchilada. Of course we’re both going to give our countdown of the “Top 3 Most Fun Moments”, so we can compare and contrast.
A storyline in the show leads both podcast hosts to talk about our “worst dates ever”, and one of them is pretty wild! Our discussion of “Lower Decks” also leads us to talk about the “CalArts animation style”, the merits of watching “Rick & Morty”, how “Community” is the center of the universe, the Kelvin timeline versus the original timeline, the value of comedy in 2020, Eugene Cordero in “Tacoma FD”, and much more.
Take a trip down to the bottom of the turbolift as we breakdown the most FUN scenes, characters, themes, music, and merch from “Star Trek: Lower Decks” Season 1 Episode 1. You are formally invited to attend this Super Sci-Fi Party!

We breakdown Adam Sandler’s 2015 comedy sci-fi film about aliens attacking the Earth using 1980s video game classics such as Pac Man, Centipede, Galaga, Space Invaders and Donkey Kong. The U.S. President (Kevin James) must call on his childhood friend and classic video game champion (Adam Sandler) to help fight the unusual alien attacks. If you have fond memories of playing classic video games in an arcade in the 1980s, this movie might hit you right in the nostalgia “feels”… If not, “Pixels” is probably not going to make a whole lot of sense to you.
If the current world has you down, take a nostalgic trip with us through arcade classics from the 1980s. Remember a time when your biggest trouble in life was running out of quarters at the arcade. This nonsensical but FUN sci-fi film will convince you that being able to run up a high score on Pac Man gives you special skills to help save the world! Plus, it has Peter Dinklage as a retro arcade superstar, complete with arcade groupies! Turn off your brain and turn on a smile as we break-down the most FUN scenes, characters, themes, and merch from the movie “Pixels” in today’s Super Sci-Fi Party podcast episode.
