A short teaser to whet your appetite for more Heavy Metal: The Podcast content!

Lea and Brendan each choose three of their favorite movies, ranging from skeletons to rom-coms, and explain what makes each of those movies uniquely Heavy Metal. How many have you seen?

In Part 2 of Issue 309, Lea and Brendan talk an awful lot about Taylor Swift...as well as discussing the latest installments of Swamp God, Microscopic, Vasator and Crunch, and Starward, and the hairstyles in all of them. Plus: the moment that had them discussing their last meals, Megan Fox's Instagram, and maybe the gnarliest life event yet.

Lea and Brendan grace you with their essence as they take a look at Issue 309, including The Adventures of Adrienne James, The Rise and Barracuda, and soon learn they both share an extreme distaste for umbrellas and people that hog the overhead compartments on airplanes.

In Part 2 of Issue 308, Lea and Brendan finally check back in to see if Savage Circus is bug-infested yet, get made to feel dumb by Can It!!, and shrink down to some sci-fi domestic drama in Microscopic. This episode features elephant eyelashes, sex bots, and tardigrades; what more could you want?!

In Part 1 of Issue 308, Lea and Brendan follow the next adventures of their pal Swamp God, check out the latest installment of Starward, including pizza etiquette thoughts, and discuss the new comic Living Mirror, as well as their opinions on the circus and the famous person who they'd want to live as for a day.

Lea and Brendan (and producer Jeremy) join up with the hosts of Madrigal at the Movies with Rob and Rob in this very special crossover episode to discuss the 2021 Chris Pratt action epic "The Tomorrow War!" What did everyone think? Would it have been a better experience in the theater? Was it surprisingly good anyway? Did everyone, against all expectations, actually love this movie?? Listen to find out!

In our second look at issue 307, Lea and Brendan discuss Chapter 5 of Maiden, which was inspired by a dream, and of course have to discuss nightmares.They also talk about The Eye Collector and Vasator & Crunch, as well as learn about how Brendan made himself sick with a bad egg and why Lea enjoys the Calm app so much.

In Issue 307 Part 1, Lea and Brendan discuss the latest installment of Swamp God, The Adventures of Adrienne James, and Outer Demons. They also give their official rankings of the Hollywood Chrises, discuss the joys of hibachi and the dangers of spiders, and are somehow even more confused about NFTs.

This bonus episode features Lea and Brendan's review of the classic Heavy Metal movie from 1981! Join them as they fret about the pterodactyl and about being too cheugy. Plus, Lea's introduction to the iconic Taarna!

In Part 2 of Issue 306, Lea and Brendan discuss Black Beacon Chapter 1, and simultaneously guarantee they will never be invited to an epic Taika Waititi party, Star 69 and the health habits of aliens, and Starward Chapter 2, including all of the fashions it delivers.

Brendan and Lea are quite surprised by the events of Swamp God Chapter 2, are already casting the (hopefully future) film of Barracuda Chapter 1, and like a lot of what's happening in Nuclear Romance (which is not a Lady Gaga song) even if they aren't quite sure what it all means.

Lea and Brendan venture into the far reaches of space with Dark Wing, battle flesh-eating zombies with George Romero's Rise and finally end up in a robot apocalypse with Cyberarchy in this week's action-packed episode of Heavy Metal Magazine: The Podcast!!
