We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian.

"When Eric eats a banana..."
For this episode, Tom teaches Morgan all about a very British superhero, Eric Wimp aka Bananaman!
From his Nutty magazine beginnings to its potential movie spinoff, we delve into the history of the loveable, if rather inept at times, Bananaman.
Surprised that TV the episodes were only 5 minutes long, we also rewatch and react to the first episode.
We discuss:
- Who's better? Superman or Bananaman?
- Who the heck was Peter Pest?
- Where does Superman hide his cape?
- Who knew crows liked bananas?
- Was Bill Oddie a naturist or a naturalist?
