Boomtron Podcast #1

Boomtron Podcast is the offiical podcast of the BSC Empire. We follow pop culture, especially science fiction, fantasy, and comic stuff, and we’ve always got something to say about everything. We’re the nerdiest non-nerds you will ever meet, and that’s why we’re awesome.

On this podcast Elena, Damon, and Rachel talk about books we’ve been reading, the game Rift, and the new release date for George R.R. Martin’s new book, A Dance with Dragons. We also take some time to speculate about the upcoming HBO adaptation of A Game of Thrones–Rachel talks up costumes from her visit to the HBO store, where some of them were on display, we wonder if it will be a viable water-cooler topic in the workplace, and speculate on how the first episode will move from boring set-up/character introductions to unignorable drama. We end on a lighter note with Hatecast, this week dissing HUB Network’s GI Joe coverage, Rebecca Black’s “Friday” video, and the movie The Adjustment Bureau.
