Stupid
O'Clock
Showrunner: Joe McKeel
This show is best described as a group of friends hanging out at a science fiction/fandom convention in the hotel lobby/bar and
chatting with everyone that walks up. We may even have a guest or two. We start out with no topic. We spend two hours chatting and
reading comments. Many times we never know what we will talk about but we cover many topics. Many times a viewer tosses out a comments
and we will chase it down the rabbit hole.
But rest assured we had fun and hopefully you do too.

Last Man Standing
Showrunner: Dan L. Hollifield
A late night, after-hours chat show. The guests featured are SF&F writers, artists, musicians, comic book creators, SMOFs, and
members of fandom in general.
Usually, It either starts off slow and boring and picks up speed as guests join in, or it continues on at full speed from whatever
discussion was in progress on Stupid O'clock when that show ended. This thing can go on for hours once it gets rolling. Guests are
welcome to join at any time, but trolls will be punted for field goals. The content is somewhat PG, or even more adult, but is intended
to be entertainment for reasonably adult audiences.
