hiya ✨ wild question, but do you know if storm cast is still up? the eps don’t seem to play anymore!

THIS IS WILD IT'S 2021

Wow. It is true that I let our account on Podbean, which was hosting the files for streaming, expire so I can instead spend the money on visual kei CDs. But for YOU, anon, I've uploaded all the episodes on Mega. If you double click the files, they should stream in the browser.

I hope you have a good time ❤️ and are following @traincat, who still posts about comics, or following me if you like Japanese metal band Dir en grey

Hi I just found your podcast and I love it so much!! It really helps me to understand what’s happening in the comics, and not just relating to Johnny either. Also, in the first episode of your podcast you mentioned that Johnny and Daken had a relationship, I was wondering if you could explain that a little if it’s not too much trouble because you had also said you wanted Johnny to be bisexual and I didn’t know if he had dated other men? Thank you so much!

Hey, thanks a lot for this message! I’m glad you’re enjoying the podcast -- I know we had a lot of fun making it. 

So I have a deep read on Johnny and Daken’s relationship here that should clear some stuff up for you. The nature of the relationship is vague in canon, but Marjorie Liu, years after the stories were written, tweeted this:

So for me personally DakenJohnny is in a weird canon grey area where it happened, but Marvel is under very little pressure to acknowledge Johnny’s romantic or sexual interest in men.

I hope these help! Thanks for listening!

so the benreed playlist is amazing BUT like,, half of the songs on there are the same ones i have in a pop spideytorch mix i made and i don't know if i can handle them being both. it's just too much power to give to one direction.

I passed your message along to playlist curator @susanstorms, who says, “KSHSKSHSKSGSKSGS one direction have that much power and more firstly!!!!!!!!!!!”

Would love to hear your spideytorch playlist if you’re willing to share. ❤️

The first Giant-Size Annual of Stormcast, a podcast about Marvel’s Johnny Storm A.K.A. The Human Torch!! Bringing you the definitive commentary for Fantastic Four (2015)! Yuuhy and Traincat are joined by guests Phoebe and Beth for enhanced yelling and crying. Queue up the movie, hit play on it when we say, sit back, and have a gay ol' time.

(Some of the movie audio actually made it into the episode by accident but hopefully it is not too distracting. Apologies!)

Listen to the companion playlist by Beth and Phoebe!

Music in this episode by Rockit Maxx:

  • “Drive Til Dawn”
  • “L.A. Montage”

do y'all have plans to cover ff tv shows at all? like an episode on the Johnny Merits of each of the different cartoons throughout the years or something or idk i could ask y'all individually im just looking for a cartoon!johnny analysis

I’d be up for a Johnny Cartoon Discussion episode if Yuuhy was, but unless some World’s Greatest Heroes-watching goes down it’ll be another “Traincat Talks Nonstop” episode ala the Lyja Times, so you could also just ask me @traincat because I would LOVE to do a list if only so I can find and use that gif of Johnny getting hit in the face by a cabbage.

If you do ask me (please ask me, don’t make me do this unprompted now that you’ve put the idea out there) it might take me a while to get to it, though -- I’m very behind on asks right now. (But definitely ask me so I can do it eventually.)

do you have plans to make another episode (or more!!) once the f4 come back? i just binge-listened to every stormcast episode within the span of like a week...

WOW, THANKS!

Yes! We are actually working on an episode later today, and we have more planned, though on an irregular schedule. I do have to give Traincat the opportunity to complain about No Surrender, after all, and you can bet we have opinions about the new creative team.

Thank you for listening!! Please feel free to tell us what you found most interesting/entertaining or what you’d like us to cover in the future!

Wow I just realized I’ve been pronouncing Valeria’s name wrong since forever lol so thanks this audio podcast really helps with that

There’s two reasons I pronounce it the way I do! 1) Val’s name was originally supposed to be Meghan Valerie Richards (or Valerie Meghan Richards, I’m not looking at the comic with the death certificate right now), so I pronounce Valeria like Valerie but with an ‘a’. 2) I grew up around Hungarian grandparents and I have a bad habit of pronouncing things the way they would (emphasizing syllables is haaaard) so Valeria pronounced like “Valerian” sounds wrong to me.  I don’t actually know if it’s right, it’s just how I say it! I’m just stubborn and can’t change.

You’ll notice that I say it Va-LER-ia, except that I’m highly susceptible to suggestion and have probably said Valer-EE-a by accident as well. See also our different pronunciations of Attilan in whichever that episode was.

In conclusion, trust us on nothing, except Daken, which is dah-ken because it’s Japanese, and Namor, which is NAY-mor according to cartoons.

So I've been thinking I'd really like to see this podcast continue into just "what did the ff do this month?" if and when it comes back >

Anon, I honestly don’t know how to handle, emotionally, covering a comic in which Johnny will, in each issue, almost definitely not only appear but also have lines that are important and possibly even a character arc!! But it is lovely to know that people will still want to listen to us haphazardly recap comics even if it’s not in a “we read(/skimmed) Uncanny Avengers so you don’t have to” way. Thank you.

In the meantime, we have plenty of wild speculations about the FF’s return in the next two episodes. 💙

Johnny (and Yuuhy) learned to read Aurebesh and so can you!

I’m reblogging this here as a reminder to myself to try and listen to this another day - it keeps crashing/not loading. 

Also, Fall Break is officially here! I originally thought it was a little earlier in the month, but either way, it means I actually have some free time to get the next chapter out finally.

Hi! It wasn’t just you; the player was having problems. I re-linked it, so hopefully it’ll work now. Thanks for the heads up!

If not, you can also find us on iTunes and on Podbean.
