S07E08 - Revenge Of The Babysat

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/15

Working with animals isn’t an easy job, but when the creatures also play a part in a movie, game, or even animation then the problems faced reach a whole new level. Who can forget classic TV moments like the Blue Peter elephant, numerous news bloopers involving journalists and animals, or the fact that the most talented creature (including humans), in Britain was a dancing dog. www.thegeekshow,co,uk

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/15

We’re big fans of conventions in the North of England so it’s only natural that we were eager to witness the birth of a new one – and to make things even better it was in our home town!

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/15

2015/05/15

With the North-East’s newest anime and manga convention looming just around the corner we thought it would be a good idea to get some of the lovely folks from the organising committee in the studio to talk about their trials and tribulations, and give people an idea of what they can expect from the event.

TGS Interviews EK Weaver

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/07

The LGBTQ Webcomic community has been all a fluster recently over the gorgeously pencilled and dangerously engrossing story of TJ and Amal. And after hungrily reading it through from start to present, I knew I’d end up harassing the author for an interview. The charming EK Weaver is a music lover and comic artist from (well, in) Austin, Texas. And stunningly, despite the art, this is her first comic. Join us for a grand and rambling discussion of the comic, it’s origins, art, anime, the 90s and

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/07

Shira Frimer, the author, has spent 10 years giving this story depth and realism, and Josef Rubinstein of DC and Marvel fame, has created some gorgeous art to express it with. This fundraiser campaign hopes to get the book finished, printed and distributed to sick children, as a source of inspiration and joy. Now with that as a premise, how on earth could we resist talking to Shira about it? This interview details the journey of a strong and creative woman, putting Expressive Arts Therapy into

S06E24 - Fadsploitation

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/07

When it comes to entertainment media the influence that fads hold is undeniable. They have the power to make or shelve movies, turn mediocre games into cash-cows, and alter the public perception of good and bad – in terms of taste and decency anyway. Join us as we explore the strange phenomenon known as “the fad”. www.thegeekshow.co.uk

S06E19 - Service With A Smile

The Geek Show ·

2015/05/07

How do you make fans happy? It’s a question that plagued the entertainment industry for decades until some bright spark had the brilliant idea that catering to the fan’s libido was the quickest and most cost-effective method. After all, sex sells – right? Join us as we explore the weird, and sometimes sleazy (looking at you Japan), world of fan-service. www.thegeekshow.co.uk
