August 6, 2026

Guests: Wil Wheaton (Wil Wheaton), Sarah Snyder (Prop Master)

Wil Wheaton pulls double duty on the Stuart Fails to Save the Universe Official Podcast as he tells co-host Felicia Day about his guest appearance in "Spoiler: Bert Is Magic." Wheaton looks back on how the episode reimagined his Big Bang Theory character as a fireball-throwing enforcer, from the magical attack inspired by his own octopus tattoo to the Vulcan salute he improvised for his battle with Bert. Later, prop master Sarah Snyder joins Wheaton and Day to discuss the episode's handmade comic books and magical props, as well as the 30-pound Vari-State Quantum Interference Device and other props from the show so far, including recreated Big Bang Theory items fans should look out for.
