Kids these days don’t understand traditional TV, and the reason for that is the mass adoption of online streaming services, and with all of the new geeky shows out there it would be impossible to watch all of them without the streaming services. Everyone has different methods and on this episode we share ours. After the news and scheduling we talk about the Good, bad and ugly of cord cutting; the quick, cheap, and good philosophy and the difference between Cord Cutters, Nevers and Shavers. We also talk about a couple of kids who didn’t understand how watching movies from the internet actually works.

Teen Wolf – Last week we asked what your Favorite Geeky soap operas were and we were put in our place for dismissing Teen Wolf. Check out the comments at http://www.FandomPodcast.com/46 for some great reasons to watch the show
We asked for a Youtube Video of how to pronounce Kevin Feige’s last name and Jeff Dumas delivered, it is pronounced Figh – Gee. Now you will never have to hear me make my dumb pronunciation jokes about his name ever again.
