If you've ever listened to Galaktacus before you know we like to talk about comics. In fact, we probably wouldn't have this podcast (or our name) without them. Comics have given us so much over the years that we always want to share them with as many people as possible. But how do you get someone into comics who's never read them before? Or someone with lifelong misconceptions? Or even someone with just a passing interest? We've got a gameplan and a wide array of selections that are sure to interest even the most ardent enemies of "funny books." Give a listen here!

TRUST NO ONE...but Galaktacus to bring you the truth about the return of The X-Files! As Mulder, Scully and Skinner(!) take a nostalgic six-episode victory lap we travel back to the dark days of the ’90s to discover that our collective memories may have been wiped of all things filed under "X." Does the series hold up? Do Duchovny and Anderson still have anything to offer? And what's Mitch Pileggi been up to? (a lot apparently). All this plus the story of Scott's special dream-world relationship with Lance Henriksen revealed! Give is listen here!

Galak is BACK! Season 3 starts here. We kick off the new year with an old-timey topic: Westerns! The Revenant and The Hateful Eight highlight our discussion about the genre's modern-day relevance. Plus we jump into the debate about whether our beloved superhero films will go the way of the Western and how that's actually a back-handed compliment. If you're new to the podcast this episode is a great starting point. So give us a listen here!
