For Geek's Sake

It got a little quiet this week, but Producer Dan has grabbed some FGS favorites and made an awesome show! Here’s what you can expect:

 

The internet was terrible to Ruby Rose because she has the audacity to accept a job

Mike Pence convinces us this Space Force thing is 100% under control

The Academy Awards decides to give the popular movies awards, too!

We’ve also got a primer for all you folks thinking about taking the plunge into Dr. Whoville, and we have a great breakdown of the Parker Solar probe.

 

Thanks for listening, and please share us with your friends!

We’re thrilled to welcome a new guest, Shinobi, to our studio. He’s a parkour expert, American Ninja Warrior contestant, and huge anime nerd… and he enjoys a good tequila.

But we’re not just talking backflips and oversized robots. Here’s what else is on the docket:

PICARD IS BACK!! (This is mostly just us squeeing for 10-15 minutes)

3D printed guns are now available for everyone… so… yay?

Disney won’t be streaming the orig trig anytime soon.

Supergirl is getting her own movie, which is definitely not a desperate attempt to learn all the wrong lessons from Wonder Woman

And Apple can now officially buy Florida.

 

Thanks for listening, and please SHARE US WITH A FRIEND!

 THIS WEEK! Al has been sacrificed for the uncommon good as we are joined by Bradford Petrino Esquire and argue over whether remakes or sequels are worse.
We also talk this week in Elon and tell the latest in the James Gunn/chris hardwick fiascos!
All this and more!

It’s a long episode, but it is worth it… we’ve got a full review of Comic Con, one of our best drafts ever, and a full breakdown on the controversy surrounding Guardians of the Galaxy’s James Gunn. Take a listen and thank you for your support!

Special thanks to Scott Horn and Draftmaster Andrew DeSalvo for joining us!

We’re doing a This Week in B Roll for part three of our FGS Classics month. We’re crisscrossing geek culture to do it, too… here’s what we’ve got for you:

YouTuber gets nailed for copyright infringement... of his own work

Elon gets his ego bruised and proceeds to lose his damn mind

Some crazy space story that Al didn’t even begin to understand

#Planbae goes the other way

NEW CARTOONS!

Microsoft discovers iPads are the way of the future

Joss Whedon returns!

Aaaaand Amazon owns everything.

It’s just Al, Dan, and Liz this week for our Ant Man & The Wasp review, smashed right in the middle of Elon saving kids in Thailand, Nic Cage doing Spider-Man Noir, and we pay respect to Spider-Man and Dr. Strange creator Steve Ditko.

We’re launching our FGS Classics month, and we open by bringing back Danielle!! Our original co-host is here to let us know what’s going on in her world, and this whole episode jumps the rails about 1:30 in… and keeps going from there.

 

Here’s what else we talk about…

Disney Imagineering has developed some crazy robots to help with that whole robot uprising

The Space Nation Asgardia finally has a leader… and it’s a Russian oligarch.

Target gets rough on the CD market…?

An update on the DC Universe streaming service

Our team welcomes back Nix from There's No Place Like Terra for the Westworld finale!

This week we are so excited to welcome Pam Stone, one of the stars of the Fringe Festival breakout hit Shakespeare’s Ghostbusters. It is absolutely as cool as it sounds.

We’ve got so much more content, of course…

-Elon is attaching rockets to his Telsas

-DC shakes up the top brass
