S11E17 - Rebel Without A Clue

The Geek Show ·

2015/11/16

It's Bonfire Night, and so we remember the 5th of November with a show about rebellion - but since we're a pretty aimless bunch we're not really sure what we're actually fighting for, or even who the enemy is. This may just end up with us disagreeing and ridiculing each other so nothing constructive ever gets done. Just like Parliament. (DISCLAIMER: No politicians were harmed in the making of this episode, although we did poke fun at some of them) Reviews - Metal Hurlant: Resurgence, WWE 2K16

2015/11/04

It’s Halloween and all through the house lots of creatures were stirring because the world was coming to an end. In the midst of all the chaos, four “intrepid heroes” – and we use the term very loosely – begin their journey to survive the apocalypse. With a full cast of monsters, fiery mixtapes, wizard’s staffs, lots of alcohol and a whole heap of pork scratchings, join The Geek Show for a very different episode.

This week’s news tried to build a working stargate out of a 1970’s Austin Metro and duct tape. It didn’t go well. Outro by Disasterpiece www.thegeekshow.co.uk

S11E04 - I Have a Genre Donation Card

The Geek Show ·

2015/09/23

What happens when a genre declines in popularity? Does it disappear, or do fragments of it appear in other story types? Come to think of it, are there any genres that are generally considered useless or defunct? These are the questions that keep us awake at night (well, aside from whether we left the gas on, locked the doors and windows, what was that noise, etc), so we decided to investigate them – and we did it without using and training wheels!

The Geek Show ·

2015/09/16

We finally hit our 11th series, and what better way to kick things off than with a special for one of our favourite conventions – SunnyCon. This year saw no small amount of trials, tribulations, cancellations, and the ever-present forces of nature, but even amongst all of the diversity the team and various others pulled together, and we witnessed something that we don’t normally see at these events – true community spirit.

Meandering Mic - Michael Jai White

On this edition of Meandering Mic we were at real risk of becoming dribbling starry-eyed wrecks - so much so that Producer Rob had to kick everybody out of the studio for this interview. Get ready for the handsome, ass-kicking awesomeness that is Michael Jai White - who was in the UK a while back to promote Falcon Rising - his latest martial arts action movie. Special thanks go to Louise at Maven Publicity for arranging this interview. OUTRO by disasterpiece www.thegeekshow.co.uk
