35:17 – Schlock Express is back with a no-frills lockdown episode. From plastic bikinis and clunky robots to space heroes with drawn on moustaches, we take a look into the wild world of Italian Star Wars knock offs.
Kicking off with The Humanoid and its cast of James Bond veterans, we move on to possibly the high point of this sub-genre with the magnificently surreal Starcrash before plumbing the depths with Alfonso Brescia’s poverty stricken space opera, Star Odyssey.

1:11:18 – Join Smidge and his son as they bring the podcast out of winter hibernation & trek out to a huge event which just happened in Chicago. Yes it was the Star Wars Celebration 2019! Listen to Kurdlebaum Junior & Senior as they team up for a full podcast together for the very 1st time! From the perilous adventure through a Spring (Hoth-like) blizzard to make it to their destination, to a full day filled with all sorts of surprises and fun… this episode is one not to be missed! Trust us the Farce (oops sorry… that was our Space Trek series), I mean the Force is strong with this one! Cheers!
