What we’re Enjoying

Jay has a problem and no one else can help, but don’t worry, he found the A-Team! He’s been watching the first season of the classic 80s series with Mr. T, George Peppard, Dirk Benedict, and Dwight Schultz. It’s tons of nostalgic fun! Shua had a ton of nostalgic fun seeing Karate Kid: Legends, with Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio. It was a smooth blending of the two franchises with that legendary karate tournament storyline. In theaters now. 

 

 

Sci-Fi Saturdays

Enjoy Dads! 

We all came from somewhere, and one half that made that possible was your Dad, even in science fiction. We found dozens of Sci-Fi Fathers and chose the ones that deserve awards. During this award show we have fun seeing who struggled raising their l’il puddins, who wasn’t around much, and even who’s poor skills even spanned timelines. 



Which Sci-Fi dads do you think deserve awards? What other awards could we pass out? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Come to Papa!” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com
