At the dawn of the social media era, Belle Gibson became a pioneering wellness influencer - telling the world how she beat cancer with an alternative diet. Her bestselling cookbook and online app provided her success, respect, and a connection to the cancer-battling influencer she admired the most. But a curious journalist with a sick wife began asking questions that even those closest to Belle began to wonder. Was the online star faking her cancer and fooling the world? Kaitlyn Dever stars in the Netflix hit series Apple Cider Vinegar . Inspired by true events, the dramatized story follows Belle’s journey from self-styled wellness thought leader to disgraced con artist. It also explores themes of hope and acceptance - and how far we’ll go to maintain it. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews executive producer Samantha Strauss. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched Apple Cider Vinegar yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on. Listen to more from Netflix Podcasts .…

×The Rise of Babylon 5... rising? We chat about a CW show we really liked, and an upcoming CW show we're hoping we really like, because it's based on a WB show we really, really liked. I didn't really give this one an extensive listen, and also I threw together some artwork; thanks Canva!
Ilan's new enemy -- revealed! Justin is an enabling presence for this quick end-of-the-month update. Justin's also been to a couple of movies, and we realize what we're going to talk about next time.
Did we miss anything? We talk about time past, our schedules these days, the different platforms out there these days, and how we interact with memories (particularly Memories, the Facebook product). We meander a lot. We talk about building and rebuilding collections via auction lots, and spend a lot of time shouting out local superstar and friend-of-the-show Jim Zub, and the games of one Mr. Robin Laws. Squideye also winds up giving a fairly complete gameplay walkthrough of Cosmic Encounter, which isn't Twilight Imperium. And the clock is ticking on Audacity.…
It's been five years. It's been five long years. We've talked a lot about what we want to talk about and it keeps getting away from us as the world keeps surprising us; but we still want to talk. So here's a placeholder.
Updates, crowdfunding, freemium games, and fear. The State of our Lives Ilan and Justin update you -- the listener -- on the latest and greatest in what we’ve been up to. FanExpo! Live theatre! Mawwiage! How to Fund your Passion What hath Crowdfunding wrought? Kickstarted games, comics, movies and games, like Catthulhu, Hillfolk, and Code Monkey Saved World. Expectations, reality, and YOU! Debt of a Thousand Clicks Freemium, micropayment-driven gaming models. What’s the difference between so-called “pay-to-win” and the old days of buying physical boosters, expansions and additional minis? Muppets vs. Cancer Make Justin face his fear. Fund his dreaded Farscape binge and help blast cancer out of the sky. Make Justin Watch Farscape Here…
We have our Rush t-shirts and a new year has started. It's time to reconnect with you, our treasured listeners, and just barely fail to talk in-depth about the amazing comic "Saga".

(39:00) Quick Saga Chat, with a promise of more - We'll do Saga next episode in depth. - Worth a reread and good for sharing, at Image Starter Pricing ($10) - Pricing on trades! - Incal and Lost riding a dinosaur through rocket-ship forest; Esperanto-speaking Jedi druids versus winged laser-imperialists, with robot mercenaries and lying cats. All the things are in the book. - If you don't like it "I will not actually punch you." - We got a new microphone (Blue Yeti) - Canadian law on Wendigos 10.

With Dark Knight about to open (at the time) we contemplate the comic book movie explosion. So many explosions. Then we talk about Ready Player One, and Lords of Waterdeep. And other stuff. An explosion of other stuff! Thankfully, nobody was hurt in the explosions. 1. Mighty Marvel Movies Precap and Recap 2. The Avengers Recap it took 2 days for people to get Justin's 2am shawarma joke How would you Plan an Avengers Marathon?! 3. New Marvel Movie Announcements Iron Man 3: Iron Manner (Ben Kingsley the Mandarin) Captain America Winter Soldier (Sharon Carter can allow a positive Bechdel) Thor: The Dark World (We dunno?) Guardians of the Galaxy (LOL) (Moondragon and Quasar - you can never have too many lesbians in superhero movies; but they only show Gamora) Ant Man. Yes, we said Ant-Man. WHY NOT NEXTWAVE?! It has three female superheroes, and two idiots. Well they're all idiots. A complete and total (UNPRINTABLE) is what everyone called Aaron Stack. 4. Boards of Waterdeep! Lords of Waterdeep, which Justin sez is so good. 5. The Book Zone! Ernest Cline's READY PLAYER ONE, Olaf Stapledon's Last and First Men, Brandon Sanderson's Infinity Blade book (which is the most profitable game, percentagewise, ever made by EPIC), and sure why not talk about The Hunger Games Fred Van Lente and Ryan Dunlavey's "Comic Book History of Comics" Ed Brubaker's Criminal: Last of the Innocent; Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson's The Boys, and Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's Flex Mentallo AND COMING UP NEXT TIME: We talk about The Kirby Krackle's Super Powered Love and Adam Warrock in our long-anticipated episode on NERD ROCK!…
SYNOPSIS: 1812-The Invasion of Canada, John Carter of Mars, S4UC3D, and "Spring Preview". We got our rewrites in from J. Michael Straczynski and George R.R. Martin, and Adi Granov finished the art, so we're ready to go! And in true news, Ilan and Justin have just spent the last few months demonstrating that "work-life balance" is something that happens to other people. In March, we recorded a shockingly timely segment about a new light wargame, 1812 - the Invasion of Canada , and oh gee right about now are the War of 1812 celebrations/commemorations. Good job, guys! About 7 minutes in, we also have... oh dear. A timely review of John Carter of Mars , which more or less came and went and - though commercially successful - didn't make much of a cultural impact. But it was better than Attack of the Clones. Around twelve minutes in, we talk about how we hadn't had a chance to play Mass Effect 3. Or other video games. Update: Ilan had a chance to play Mass Effect 3. But Justin still hasn't. It's thirteen minutes when we welcome the (now 19-episode-old!) S4UC3D podcast , starring SATBG superfriend Jerome Comeau, and their mockery of us is well-earned. Haw haw, you guys. Then it's fourteen minutes, and we talk comics. Ilan talks about Remender, and Justin talks about Swamp Thing, and Alan Moore, and then Ilan gets all high and mighty about how The Ultimates have higher stakes than "mainstream Marvel" ever can. Sigh. Around twenty-one minutes in, we pontificate about the comic-book-buyer's dilemma. Wait for reviews? Preorder, rain-or-shine? Twenty-four minutes in we *ANTICIPATE* the new (spring!) TV season, including the new (third!) season of Community. Yep. And wave our hands about Fringe, and Breaking Bad, and stuff. Twenty-eight minutes: Wrestling, movies, G.I. Joe. And then we worry about whether the Avengers was gonna be good and stuff. And we cap it off by talking about Zahn and Thrawn. You can figure this out. Just careful that nobody gets hurt!…

Justin talks with his gaming pal Jim "Zub" Zubkavich , mastermind of UDON studios and author of the new fantasy action comedy comic Skullkickers . "Like Army of Darkness with two Ashes." How is it made? What to expect? Why is the first trade so cheap? Answers within! A life lesson, kids: beat the drum as much as possible. We are happy to be part of the shilling for this admittedly hugely fun book that we both really like. And no-one was hurt.…
Wow, it's been a long time since our last episode. Today we focus on comics, particularly the biggest comic event of the last little while: Jonathan Hickman's run on the Fantastic Four! We touch on other topics related to media as well. No superheroes were harmed in the podcasting of this episode.
You've been waiting almost two years for this. Here it is. Nobody was hurt in the recording of the episode. And if you already hurt, perhaps the tears will help you heal.
