The Podcast Of Steel

<div> <p>In this episode, I’m joined by Dallas Campbell to talk about his journey from acting into the world of space and science storytelling. We explore the creative side of space exploration—from iconic logos and spacesuits to the deeper human stories behind it all—and dive into his new book Space Journal: The Art and Science of Cosmic Exploration, which is out now. The book brings together the beauty of space art with the science behind it, offering a unique look at how exploration has been shaped by both imagination and discovery.</p><p>We also look ahead to the future, chatting about the Moon, Mars, and NASA’s Artemis missions, and why space continues to inspire curiosity and wonder. It’s a fun, thoughtful conversation about exploration, creativity, and what drives us to look beyond our world.</p><p>Where you can find Dallas  online:</p><p>Website: <a href="https://www.dallascampbell.co.uk/">https://www.dallascampbell.co.uk/</a><br>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thedallascampbell/">https://www.instagram.com/thedallascampbell/</a><br>X: <a href="https://x.com/dallascampbell">https://x.com/dallascampbell</a></p><p>Thanks for listening.

<div> <p>On this episode, I’m joined by comics historian and lifelong fan Tim Pilcher for a heartfelt celebration of Superman and the enduring importance of comics. We talk about Tim’s journey through the industry and his role as Executive Editor on The Definitive History of Superman, published by Insight Editions. </p><p>Tim also takes time to acknowledge the incredible writers and creators whose research, passion, and love for the Man of Steel helped bring the book to life. We discuss the upcoming updated edition, featuring new material connected to the modern era of Superman, including insights relating to James Gunn. </p><p>At its core, this conversation is a thank-you to the storytellers behind the scenes, a reflection on why Superman continues to represent hope and a reminder of why comics matter so deeply to our culture.</p><p>Where you can find more Insight Edition books:</p><p><a href="http://www.InsightEditions.com">www.InsightEditions.com</a></p><p>Thanks for listening.

<div>Sam aka "The Girlfriend Of Steel" hijacks the podcast and turns the tables, putting me firmly in the interview chair. No scripts. No safe questions. Just fun!<br><br>We talk fandom, Superman, content creation, and take a full detour through my Summer of Superman adventures, from unforgettable experiences to moments that still don’t feel real. There are laughs, honest answers, a bit of self-reflection and the kind of questions you only get when the host is someone who knows you far too well.<br><br><br>It’s playful, personal, and completely different from a normal episode and that’s exactly why it works.<br><br><br>Suit up. You’re in for a fun one!<br><br><br>Where to find Sam online:<br><br>Instagram:https: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/thegirlfriendofsteel_">www.instagram.com/thegirlfriendofsteel_</a><br>Threads: <a href="http://www.threads.com/@thegirlfriendofsteel_">www.threads.com/@thegirlfriendofsteel_</a><br><br><br>Thanks for listening.

<div>The Supergirl trailer from DC Comics and WB is finally here, and in this episode I share my reaction to it. I dive into the biggest moments, the bold visuals, and the clues we’re getting about Kara’s journey—especially the clear influences from Tom King’s <em>Woman of Tomorrow</em> and the gorgeous artwork by Bilquis Evely and Matheus Lopes. <br><br><br>With Milly Alcock starring as Supergirl, Craig Gillespie directing, and a screenplay by Ana Nogueira, this film is shaping up to be something truly exciting and with its release set for June 26th, 2026, I break down what this first look reveals about the tone, world-building, and character direction, and why the trailer has me more hyped than ever for Supergirl’s next chapter.<br>My Supergirl Playlist:<br><br>Apple:<br><a href="https://music.apple.com/gb/playlist/supergirl-woman-of-tomorrow/pl.u-NjMGCpDYKxr">https://music.apple.com/gb/playlist/supergirl-woman-of-tomorrow/pl.u-NjMGCpDYKxr</a><br><br>Spotify:<br><a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4cCZk3DSBsb4lEQY3SBnJK?si=GvtMttSaSTuWnLNqIpBTsQ&amp;pi=807OBTr1Sl2gi&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=0c19f1c8c39540e4">https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4cCZk3DSBsb4lEQY3SBnJK?si=GvtMttSaSTuWnLNqIpBTsQ&amp;pi=807OBTr1Sl2gi&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=0c19f1c8c39540e4</a><br><br>Thanks for listening.
