The Geek Show

S04E04 - Muzak

The Geek Show ·

2015/04/21

Joining us in the studio this week are NTC Promotions, a local firm that organise gigs for some of the best musical talents in the area. We also try to work out why musical cinema suddenly left the mainstream, and ask why music is rarely treated as an integral part of a story (and no, Disney songs don't count). www.thegeekshow.co.uk

Meandering Mic - Geof Banyard Interview

The Geek Show ·

2015/04/20

[NSFW] Technically this WAS an MCM Expo interview, but its 30 minutes long and more in with my usual rambliness. Dr. Geoff is the author and artist of the Fetishman series of online comics, and the creator of the ‘First Tea Division’ fictional army. Generally he’s the creator of kinky, steampunky, tea-based, cute… things. http://www.islandofdoctorgeof.co.uk/.

The Geek Show ·

2015/04/20

Originally broadcast in 2011. Are games too expensive? Is free music really “free”? What does your cinema ticket actually pay for?

S03E10 - Anti-Heroes

The Geek Show ·

Seriously, where’s the “I don't care either way so leave me alone” button? www.thegeekshow.co.uk
