Customer Reviews
Great podcast for sci-fi fans
These guys definitely know their sci-fi, and they talk about sci-fi news and review the latest TV shows and movies, but that's only half of it. What makes this podcast awesome are the diverse topics they discuss. Some examples: Sci-fi pet peeves; Most over/underrated shows and movies; Favorite tech; The best aliens; Picard or Kirk?; and of course, how George Lucas did bad bad things to the Star Wars franchise.
If you're a fan of sci-fi at all, then the Sci-Fi Cast is a must-subscribe.
Great Podcast
I'm a huge Sci Fi (not SyFy) geek, and absolutely love listening to Ged, Dave, and Jen talk about the latest news in science fiction. While I don't agree with everyone's opinions (mostly about Lost and Joss), that doesn't make the show any less of a joy to experience. Truth or Sci Fi is a great touch as well! Very fun. I highly recommend this podcast to any science fiction fans out there. You can thank me later.
It is great.
Voices that should be heard. Interesting, quirky and fun.
One note: I would like the volume levels between Jen, Ged and Dave to be more balanced.
