Flopcast 646: Dragon Con Review Part 3 - Screaming Bikini Chicken Ladies

Let's wrap up our look back at Dragon Con 2024, before we have to creep back to Atlanta for Dragon Con 2025! The final two days of our favorite nerdfest included: Sci-Fi Court! (The Mayor defended Beastmaster, and Kevin defended Wonder Woman. But not the Wonder Woman you're thinking of.) A couple of rounds of Roll-A-Panel, in which a giant d20 determined which movies were discussed! (Don't worry, we did not miss Sheena: Queen of the Jungle.) Celebrity Q&A panels with Giancarlo Esposito, Ming Na Wen, Manny Jacinto, Vincent D'Onofrio, and Mike Colter! Script readings of Three's Company and Out of This World, featuring kazoos, a surprise message from space, and a million Helens Roper! The new Dragon Tales book! Retro arcade games! Barbies! Teeth! And yes, screaming bikini chicken ladies. It was magnificent. See you next year, weirdos.


Show Notes

The height of Felicity's independent film viewing was the 1990s, and it felt like Vincent D'Onofrio was everywhere. Lesser-know favorites include Household Saints and The Whole Wide World. And hey, we almost forgot he had a cameo in Ed Wood as Orson Welles!

ESO's Mike Gordon, Kevin, and Sci-Fi Track co-runners Gary and Joe present the annual Tails of Dragon Con panel, along with Dragon Tales!


Jamie takes some readings for the next episode of Enterprisesplaining.

Even with their sonic screwdrivers at the ready, the two Doctors will never spot Davros in his cleverest disguise!
