Hello, Happy New Year and welcome after our Christmas break to Episode 27 of Small Press Big Mouth. In this episode Stacey and Lee review Parker: The Outfit, Sugar Glider, Too Good To Be Forgotten, Art And That, Our Valued Customers and revisit the now complete Kochi Wanaba. Warning: Stace & Lee were feeling particularly silly during the recording of this episode. 

After there jovial interludes and seasonable break the DW boys tackle Space Above and Beyond a show that perhaps unfairly got canned in it's first season and which provides a useful jump off point to look at Marines in Science Fiction.   Wonder at how often Matt can say 'Hard Asses', astound at Kehaars pet obesssions coming to the fore and ponder the many examples of Marines in science fiction they praise and diss in equal measure.   On the way we call by Iwo Jima, Starship Troopers, Stormtroopers, Star Trek, Aliens, and much much war.   We perhaps don't go enough into expeditionary warfare but the episode takes a turn where we look at the Marine as a  trop (ooo hark at us)e in SF and in broader fiction too.    They also consider SAAB's legacy for shows like Galacitca and SGU and consider some it's weaknesses   Hope you enjoy it.

In this special episode Ant and Amaechi interview Dan Kilby, Marketing Co-ordinator at IGN UK as he discusses IGN UK’s Game Changer competition, which is looking for “The Next BIG Thing” in writers and video presenters for the gaming and movie industry.   You can find out more about the IGN UK’s Game Changer competition at http://gamechanger.ign.com/  or see some examples of the video’s people have already submitted at  www.youtube.com/IGNGameChanger   The competitions closing date is 31st January 2011, so get writing or whip out a camera and record yourself presenting and you could be “The Next BIG Thing”.
