For Geek's Sake

Musk v Asimov

This week we welcome back our Senior Legal Correspondent T. Bradford Petrino, Esq. as he schools us on whether or not it’s okay to kill people with self-driving cars. It’s possible we missed the point of the exercise.

Also, we spend some time on the newest Luke Cage trailer, Al geeks out at a possible Deadwood movie, and we all get slightly uncomfortable with an X-rated Joker. Finally, Al & Dan get lawyered on their Top 5 Geek Movies of the last 11 years and 3 months. Please enjoy, and SUBSCRIBE!

I Accidently Blew Up My Friend’s World

This week we are thrilled to welcome Aidan Loeffel, winner of the Guest Spot on For Geek’s Sake. This 11-year-old engineering whiz schools us on MineCraft, and generally establishes himself as the smartest one at the table…

ALSO! We break down Marvel’s latest movie news, we create Cosplay Safe Spaces in the office, laugh at Danielle getting fooled by the internet, and finally contract a nasty case of dysentery. All that, plus the dangers of the evangelical Jedi! Thanks for listening, and please SUBSCRIBE!

She Let Him Win… Once.

This week we’re pleased to welcome the fine folks from Nod Rama back into the studio as we break down how Al got broken down. The youngest of the warriors, Willow, gets her own chair and mic this time, though at the expense of her mother. There’s a deeper story to tell here, but we aren’t the ones to tell it.

We keep it simple, though, jumping from LARPing to the aftereffects of San Diego Comic Con. Some of us are still recovering from all the amazing trailers (and some still haven’t seen them). Regardless, we break down all of them, and even learn Producer Dan has a secret project of his own!

Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

Want show notes? Just click it like you mean it.

Also, A Comic Shop? They’re pretty cool. Just sayin.

More on the Killing, Less on the Joke

It’s a This Week In B Rolls on FGS this week, as Dan and Al welcome Geek Street Editor Elizabeth! She works with Dan to keep Al more or less contained as they explore such crucial topics as Al’s one-man war on Nerdist, Snickers for Doomsday, the loss of the crawl, and the casting of Janet (dammit). 

Sniper No Sniping

This week Al and Danielle welcome the Cast Revive crew into the studio as they throw Pokeballs at each other. Also, we explore healing via sniper rifle, run down children with 300 pound robots, wax poetic about Dice Tower Con, and spy on Area 51. Finally, Elon Musk gets his greatest wish: a quasi-regular segment on our show.

You’re welcome, Elon.

Gaming Apps and Spacey Stuff

This week the FGS crew are excited to welcome Outhouse Games into the studio. This indie game developer has some exciting stuff to share, and we immediately lose Danielle for about half the show…

We also spend some time blowing up historic highways, pulling a slingshot around Jupiter, and addressing the real truth surrounding a McConaughey manicure. All that, plus superhero idolatry in the Big Apple. Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

 

We’ve got show notes. Oh, yeah… here’s that mystical episode of Legend of the Hidden Temple. You can find our esteemed producer around the 9-minute mark.

 

WANT MORE OUTHOUSE GAMES? Of course you do.

You can follow them on Twitter @OuthouseGames, you can check out their Facebook page or their website. You can even find Bethany’s musical skills on display by checking out her SoundCloud page. The games are all available through iOS and Android.

SHAME (Game of Thrones Review)

SPOILERS through GoT Season 6 start at 19:30… and keep sneaking into the B Roll and shameless plugs. Sorry about that…

THIS WEEK!! It’s more than just Game of Thrones! We’ve got Liz Ames back in the studio, and things get borderline inappropriate as Elon Musk sneaks in yet again. ALSO! Meth King Zordon makes it weird, Fall Out Boy gets misogynistic, The Rock goes feral, and Al hides under a dumpster. All that, plus flying pumpkins! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

No Ticket

This week Al goes hardcore fan boy over Heather Mann, Assistant Director for Dice Tower Con. She’s in the studio to talk about the convention, board game prototypes, and to tell Danielle “No” in a clear, firm voice. Also, we explore suitcases versus droid as robot overlords, Dan rants (again) about Zack Snyder, and we lament the loss of trench warfare. All that, plus a moment of civility as we pay some respects. Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!!

LARPing and Royalty

This week we’re thrilled to welcome the fine folks from the LARPing group AmtGard to the show, as we get prepped for our foray into foam warfare. We also update you on what’s not happening at E3, Al mispronounces Margot, and Danielle loses Mascow. All that, plus sexist canaries! Thanks for listening, and please SUBSCRIBE!

A Lot of Blue People

This week!!! We venture into The Void for the latest in VR, wonder why drone races don’t feature more explosions, debate Brie Larson’s star power, and then finally give up and join the forces of evil. All that, plus a review of X-Men Apocalypse. Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!
