OFFICIAL: Slice of Film Joins WOBAM Entertainment!
WOBAM’s been through many phases of existence, and Katie Rentschler has been there through most of them. Having served as Deputy Editor and web designer for our site, she stepped away in 2019 to pursue other ventures like Full Circle Cinema, Geek Ultimate Alliance, Revenge of the Fans, and her own blog, Slicer Scribbles. Obviously we’ve stayed in touch, and what’s been exciting is watching Katie grow in these creative ventures. With WOBAM also experiencing a new and exciting phase of growth, the opportunity presented itself for us to work together again and offer a home for Katie’s podcast, Slice of Film. Part of the Geek Ultimate Alliance podcasting network,…

OFFICIAL: The Double Turn Podcast Joins WOBAM Entertainment!
It’s not everyday we get a request to bring new content to WOBAM, and it’s rare for that talent’s passion for a topic to win you over completely. WOBAM is no stranger to wrestling content, but we’ve never fully embraced it as a staple. Pro Wrestling is full of the same tropes found in comics and superhero stories, both genres contain larger than life characters, and figures from the ring have graced the small and silver screens with growing frequency. As we seek to grow a platform where creators can share their passions with others and foster community, we are proud to announce that The Double Turn Podcast is joining…

OFFICIAL: Revenge of the Fans joins WOBAM Entertainment – THE FANBOY PODCAST, HOPS AND BOX OFFICE FLOPS, and more!
We used to joke in our group chat about buying Revenge of the Fans for $1. Mario-Francisco Robles never would have sold it, of course, and it was worth way more than a buck, but the thought was always amusing since we were something of a sister site. A lot has changed with our sites in the last couple years. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed everyday life, and many of us are in different places than we were a couple years ago. The landscape of geek journalism is ever changing too, with news being carried by larger sites and the rumor mill shifting towards Twitter. With these changing landscapes, new…

OFFICIAL: Changing of the Guard and New Horizons in 2021
This website’s been on one heck of a journey. What started in 2013 as a little blog called Watchtower of Babel has grown far more than I could have ever imagined. To date we’ve published nearly 4,000 articles, graduated college, started careers, gotten married, survived a shutdown, weathered a global pandemic, and somehow this little site has kept on going. I joined the old Watchtower crew in 2017, and people I’ve met here have become lifelong friends. The site we now know as WOBAM Entertainment draws its greatest strength from being a beacon where fans can express themselves with likeminded people. We shun toxic fandom and embrace being a platform…
