Breaking the Panel – Episode 102: “TV’s Crushing on Ellen Page”
12/01/2018 Duration: 01h14minOnly the finest professional editing this week—is TV’s Casey up to snuff? Probably not, but who cares, there’s plenty in here to hear. Game talk, shop talk, and Netflix talk with The Toys That Mad Us and maybe Bright 2: The Centaur Cop. Phil’s psyched about the return of the Animaniacs to Hulu in 2020. But the mood shifts with news of Smilin’ Stan Lee getting grabby with some nurses, and we let go of some idol worship. Somehow, we give an almost complete rundown of the Golden Globes that we DEFINITELY didn’t just have as background noise. Finally, we close things out with hypothetical movie talk about Bloodshot of Valiant Comics, and Shadowcat of the X-Men. But mostly Shadowcat since we don’t know anything about Bloodshot.

In the news: Jodie Foster raises a point about superhero fatigue, and it’s a mixed bag. YouTube sensation Logan Paul milks a dead body for all it’s worth. We’re terrified to the core that robot citizen Sophia is a fan of pro-automaton television. TV’s Casey is absolutely x-static about the return of the Exiles to Marvel Comics! TV is HOT HOT HOT right now, so Charles inspires a mini-roundtable about how we would adapt our favorite franchises for the home screen. Join us and join the conversation!

Breaking the Panel: The Best of 100!
04/01/2018 Duration: 47minWord up Panel Breakers! Here is the much talked about best of 100 clip show. In this amazing tome of knowledge, you will get the origins of our running jokes, the best mistakes we have made, the laughter, love, and a good sample of our discussions when they get serious. You get some hits like "Travis's Mom Calls In", "What Weasley", and of course "There is no Batman!" As a special bonus, you will hear the original appearances of Tony P. Henderson, Travis Jones, and Casey Stroz. I hope you enjoy everything that has gone into the making of 100 episodes as we have loved the journey. A big thanks to Mike Woodard for everything he does in the production field. You will hear some audio bits throughout the episode that he originally put in, and the last run of the audio is all of the cold opens he chose throughout the year. Plus you get a very cool fan submission opening in the style of Rick and Morty. This particular episode is a labor of love and I tried to highlight everything that has been great about Breaking

18/12/2017 Duration: 02h13minWelcome Panelteers, we’re Breaking the Panel! Charles, Paul, Chris, and Casey bring you the humor, the fun, and the ever-evolving conversations you’ve come to expect. It’s our 100th Episode—but is this the end for BREAKING THE PANEL?? Chris Wisdom sets off on the long walk to bring podcasting to the podcastless in the 2018 wasteland. But first, business as usual with some quick thoughts on Marvel’s Runaways, tabletop talk about Tales from the Loop, and new Spielbergian epic Ready Player One. After the break, we take another trip down memory lane about the foundation of the Giant-Size Team-Up Network, Breaking the Panel, and that one time we called Jay & Silent Bob’s Secret Stash.

10/12/2017 Duration: 01h44minWelcome Panelteers, we’re Breaking the Panel! Charles, Paul, Chris, and Casey bring you the humor, the fun, and the ever-evolving conversations you’ve come to expect. After a jaunt about what we're reading/watching/playing, we talk MORE about the final lap of the Disney/Fox deal. When it comes to a Tarantino-directed Star Trek, all we've got are tropes and jokes. None of us care that Firestorm's leaving DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Casey was wrong, but more importantly, CHRIS WAS RIGHT when it come to The Crow and the possibility of a remake. Trent from Toy Power Podcast sends word about the fall of Oz Con from last week. Finally, GET TO KNOW YOUR HOSTS-- we reveal our Secret Origins for comic-book fandom, podcast membership, and how Breaking the Panel is the greatest spinoff since Xena: Warrior Princess.

Australia's Oz Comic-Con calls it quits after San Diego Comic-Con lawyers up! And the INFINITY WAR Trailer is finally here! It's great, but we nitpick and speculate and stack it against Star Wars anyway. All of that amazing content and YOUR feedback. Join us and join the conversation.

Casey’s back and we’re not quite sure ow he got in or how to get him out. Well sugahs, you know we are just goin’ta have ta deal with him. This week we’re not light on topics or discussion. If you suffer from pod envy sit this one out, ‘cause it’s girthy. First we find out that Charles doesn’t quite understand the meaning of the phrase “grossly misquoted.” We talk about the current state of comics distribution thanks to an article by Wizard Magazine alum, Jim McLauchlin. An Australian morning talk makes a big misstep and shows what NOT to do when you have access. When is enough enough when it comes to promoting movies and are we just getting too much? An X-Men Horror movie? Yes please! Are you all ready to be thankful for the Punisher? Finally, in our continuing efforts to get our content out, to you, as quickly as possible we’re hired HDS to be our o

Breaking the Panel Ep 91 – “The Orville is One Hellboyuva Discovery”
01/10/2017 Duration: 01h32minWelcome Panelteers, we’re Breaking the Panel! Charles, Paul, and Chris bring you the humor, the fun, and the ever-evolving conversations you’ve come to expect. WOW, join the hosts as they boldly go into one of the longest segments we’ve ever had outside a movie panel show. It’s all about The Orville vs Star Trek: Discovery. We’ll tell you what we think you let us know what we got right or wrong. There are strong opinions voiced, McFall claims a win, and Paul and Sean, #FotS , are not fans of CBS All Access. Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD is still causing debate with your hosts and one of us has a slight change of heart. Danny Elfman’s recent comments have Chris REALLY worried about some possible musical appropriation and questioning Danny for the first time ever. Finally, Ron Pearlman has something to say about the new Hellboy and…it’s…concise? Be sure to check out Breaking the Panel for full show notes, links, and our archives!

Breaking the Panel Ep 90 – “Frankie Loves Charlie”
25/09/2017 Duration: 01h20minWelcome Panelteers, we’re Breaking the Panel! Charles, Paul, and Chris bring you the humor, the fun, and the ever-evolving conversations you’ve come to expect. Happy birthday to Charles as he’s another year older yet seems to regress in wisdom. Netflix launches a new Punisher trailer, and it…is…EPIC! Has Inhumans lost a chance at season 2 before season 1 releases and is that the first thing that Marvel Television has gotten right for this property? Netflix shows ALL the chill in dealing with fans and questionable usages of their IPs. Crime doesn’t pay even if that crime is merely encouraging children to deface their comic books. CW is going dark with another Archie Comics property and we’d like Clarissa to explain it. Toys R Us might be bringing the Toy Run back, only as this time as a fund raising venture.

Sadly, we start off with a somber goodbye to one of the undersung titans of the comic book industry, Mr. Len Wein. If you love Wolverine, Swamp Thing, Human Target, and others; then this passing affects you, despite Charles’s cold dead heart. So, re-read some of your favorite stories with those characters or any of his many, influential runs on other books and honor Len’s life, contributions, and legacy. JJ is back in the Star Wars Universe and he’s gonna bring the Skywalker Saga to a close; May the Force be with him and us all. Hellboy gets a do-over in its casting choices as well as gives us the gift of some stunning visuals of Chief Hopper’s amazing-looking Hellboy. Liam Neeson decides to retire his particular set of skills. No Punisher chocolate in our Defenders peanut butter? Clark Gregg takes after his Phil Coulson persona and becomes Director of
