    Oct 3 2025

    Michael, Rob, and Pax welcome very special guest, Tyler Mane (X-Men, Rob Zombie's Halloween) to resurrect an old topic from After Lunch's early days. We each nominate fighters, locations, and complications and discuss Who Would Win? Of course Sabretooth vs Michael Myers comes up, but there are many more epic battles to talk about and argue over.

    Be sure to check out Tyler's new graphic novel, The Last Spartan: Red Tape, co-written with Christopher Priest.

  • 389 | Fixing Kolchak: The Night Stalker
    Sep 29 2025

    Kolchak: The Night Stalker started as a couple of TV movies, but when it became a TV series it struggled and only lasted 20 episodes, finally becoming a cult classic thanks to late night reruns. Michael, Rob, and guests DeAndre and Sophie discuss how they would tweak the series to be even better than it was. And also about what they love and wouldn't want to change.
