FGS Episode 152: Self Identifying As The Danger

For Geek"s Sake ·

2018/03/01

It’s a rowdy week on For Geek’s Sake, as a last-minute schedule change (and a delicious bottle of bourbon) throw off whatever semblance of order or control we may have been attempting. However, we’ve got a Winter Olympic draft that is absolutely worth checking out. Have you ever wondered how Chewbacca would do on ice skates? Because we have… Of course, that’s not all we’re bringing to the table. We’re also investigating how Bitcoin is now ruining the search for extraterrestrial life, discussing how

Episode 150: Tacos Aren't That Simple!

For Geek"s Sake ·

2018/02/15

It’s been 150 episodes, and so we’re clear, this episode came with no rails whatsoever. We’re hitting all of our favorite topics- Elon Musk, DC movies, a little D&D, the inevitable rise of the machines, Firefly, board games, and cars slamming into stationary objects at high speed. You know, the classics. 150 episodes seems incredible. We can’t thank you all enough for all the love and support. Thanks to you all, we’re certain we got at least 50 good episodes left. …40. Okay okay, 15. Ya know what

We’re so excited to welcome MattyJ311 back to Factur studios! The video game guru is here to get us caught up on all things video games, and there is some pretty exciting stuff in the offing. Of course, that isn’t enough for us, so we’re also catching you up on a few other noteworthy topics- a little Han Solo over here, a dash of Altered Carbon over there, and OHMYGODWHATDIDTHEYDOTHENINJATURTLES?!?! {deep breath} Anywho, we also fess up and admit that we were the ones who murdered BitCoin (sorry),

FGS Episode 148: Al Said Something Nice!

For Geek"s Sake ·

2018/02/01

It’s Magic: The Gathering! Finally! After 147 episodes we finally dive deep in the card game that changed geek culture forever. We’re very excited. Well…most of us are, anyway. But if tapping mana isn’t your thing, we’re also dishing on Captain Marvel’s new look, and breaking down that awesome Antman & The Wasp trailer, as well as Elon’s new (insensitive) flamethrower. Also, in what has definitely become our weirdest reoccurring segment to date, we have another robot-sex story… this one features the

Episode 147: Flicks on Fleek

For Geek"s Sake ·

2018/01/25

It’s another This Week In B Roll… and oddly enough, it still involves the male anatomy. This may be getting weird. We’re cruising through a variety of topics, however, including Nintendo’s $70 cardboard, Facebook getting all wibbly wobbly timey whimey, and the latest in the fight to keep your internet free. Well, not free free. Just open. Well… “open”. Anyway, thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

This Is A Bit, Right?

2018/01/18

This week we’re thrilled to welcome “You Know Nothing” Kelsie Rose for a B Roll extravaganza! We’ve got everything from male sex robots to epic sandwiches, and we’re leaving nothing to the imagination. There’s also axe throwing, Facebook shrinkage, and heart attacks… just… well… everything, I guess. So thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

Triangle: The Official Shape of Mexico

For Geek"s Sake ·

2018/01/11

We start a little off the rails this week, but it’s necessary to get all that brain matter prepared to under stand our main topic: BitCoin. Tim, and his honest hips, are here to walk us through how a crypto currency (that’s not really crypto) is mined (but not really) and how it became so incredibly expensive (spoiler: it’s complicated). Then, just to keep it Iight and happy, we wander back into the world of YouTube and the catastrophes permeating that creative space. Happy New Year! Also, the Elon

Steve Jobs: Baby Catcher

For Geek"s Sake ·

2018/01/04

We’re ringing in the new year with a recap of the best and brightest of 2017, and a look forward to our most anticipated offerings for the new year. But it’s not all Auld Lang Syne, of course. We’re investigating Apple’s battery woes, listening closely to Google’s dulcet tones, and lamenting evil stupid people. In case all that isn’t enough, Al uses the B Roll to give some solid investing advice. So… that happened. Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

Holy crap! We got an actual NASA (contractor) person to come on the show! Did we become legitimate? Quick, someone figure out if we’re legitimate now! …no? No? Are we… okay. Well, maybe next time. Regardless, Dustin Lore is on the show to tell us all about how he’s helping build a probe that will hurtle itself into sun at an alarming rate. No word on why, given the infinite expanse of outer space, this poor thing has to go headlong into the first star it can find, but there we are. When we’re not

LAST JEDI SPOILERS… though, surprisingly, only in the main topic. We did a good job keeping ourselves in check this week. Liz is out sick, but Elijah steps in to help us hash out the good, bad, and slightly odd with the latest installment in Star Wars cannon. How will it score? You’ll have to listen to find out… Of course, we’re not done there. We also break down fun, lighthearted topics as the Disney acquisition of Fox and the fallout from net neutrality… sorry, I meant She-Ra coming to Netflix and

Anakin’s Mom Is a Ho

For Geek"s Sake ·

2017/12/14

Look… this episode went off the rails quickly. In our defense there was a free bottle of booze and Game of Thrones themed shot glasses. We’re not made of stone. We’re focusing on the future this week as we take a look at some interesting trailers dropping this week… from an animated Spider-verse to Jessica Jones, there’s something for everyone. But that’s not all! We’re also giving our predictions on Star Wars, getting hyped about Street Fighter’s 30th anniversary, and laughing at people resisting

This week we’re helping you decide on gifts for all the geeks in your life. Maybe that includes the team that brings you an amazing geek podcast every week. I mean… it doesn’t. But it could. (It doesn’t) We’re also breaking down the insane Infinity War trailer, checking in on the Voyager satellite, and for some reason discussing Tarantino directing a Star Trek movie… all that, plus a breakdown on the deal that put Wolverine on the Avengers! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

FGS One Off: Justice League and Punisher

2017/11/30

SPOILERS. ALSO...NOT PG13. FGS One Offs are just what they sound like- off the cuff conversations on whatever topic happens to interest us. Today we're discussing a few inconsistencies in the Justice League, and debating whether The Punisher is great or greatest. It's a hard call. Enjoy!

We’re drafting tonight, and Al finally gets to participate! We’re assembling the team to replace Santa after… well, after any of the obvious problems built around the Santa Claus mythos finally reach their logical conclusion. But don’t worry! It’s not all dark and weird! We also get to talk about Elon going for the Big Battery 100 Day Challenge, and explore our favorite MCU theories on the heels of Vanity Fair’s awesome expose! See? That sounds fun, right? Good! Because the B Roll is literally the

It’s Justice League Review time, and the throw down on screen has nothing on the throw down on our episode…. There’s a lot of jokes here, I’ll let you make up your own. That’s full of spoilery goodness, of course, but our Punisher discussion is zero spoiler, with a hint of lemon and lime. Mmmmm… also, Elon threatens humanity with flying cars, SNES punches above it’s weight class, Mars has beaches, and Star Wars wants to feed your crippling gambling addiction. ...didn’t mean to end dark there.

We know it’s a long one, but we promise you this: You want to check out this week’s B Roll. Thor: Ragnarok dropped, and we’ve got our in-depth review as we decide just how many Goldblums this movie is worth. Hint: It’s more than a few. We’re also chatting about Elon upending society, as usual, and Bezos trying to be cooler, as usual. We’re also looking into Florida’s new e-sports team, the Mayhem. Yeah. As usual. The phrase that pays is #makedurdenfamous , so get yourself to Bowigens and drink

This amazing local charity helps children learn through board games and D&D. Seriously. We’re 100% in. Phil isn’t just there for his own selfish non-profit needs, though. He also joins our crew as we navigate more Naruto/crime related news… which is really weird… also, Saudi Arabia makes a robot a citizen, the MCU considers an

It’s an Orwellian hellscape today as we continue to accidently get super dark…which is admittedly weird… But it’s not all doom and gloom! We’ve also got an update on the pending robot uprising! Hmm… okay, admittedly, not a great course correction. How about, instead, we laugh at Star Trek for dropping an F bomb, bid a fond farewell to Lego’s ill-fated toy/video game hybrid, and give you the breakdown on the giant robot fighting league? Nice. Pulled it out there in the end… let’s thanks Bowigens for
