For Geek's Sake

 Bonus Ames on Thrones after the episode!

This week Al leaves us alone again (you'd think he'd learn), Elon calls for a ban on killer robots, we give you all the back story you need to start watching The Defenders (minor spoilers), and Liz finally gets a comic book/roller derby crossover! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

We’ve got Orlando Weekly’s Scott Horn this week, and he’s giving us the details on Orlando’s blossoming board game scene. His article dives deep into Dice Tower Con, local board game spots, developers, and much more. But, of course, we can’t just leave it there. We still have to crane kick our way to YouTube Red, lose our collective minds over Ducktales, and leave a single solid middle finger toward Dippin Dots. All that, plus the latest from the DCEU! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!!  

It’s another long night on FGS, as we break down the good the bad and the ugly on the Stephen King’s pseudo-western The Dark Tower. Spoilers and what have you.

When we’re not forgetting the face of our fathers, we’re fighting to save the planet from destruction, fighting to save the net from a distinct lack of neutrality, and fighting to find the correct pronunciation for Sarahah. All that, plus FGS is spared by the grace of Pique Geek! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

**GAME OF THRONES EPISODE 3 BREAKDOWN AFTER THE CREDITS!**

This week Al leaves the team to their own devices as they draft the best fictional characters to put on the FGS Geekies! From there we choose sides as lines are being drawn in the battle between Elon and Zuckerberg. 

*GAME OF THRONES EPISODE 2 BREAKDOWN AFTER THE CREDITS!*

(that’s why it’s so long)

Turns out D23 was just a warm up for the marathon session our stalwart hosts endure this week. But weep not, dear viewers, for San Diego Comic Con is a cause worthy of their prodigious talents.

Alright… enough of that. But we are breaking down as much of comic con as we can, including almost a dozen trailers, on top of comics, fan theories, and so much more. But that’s not all! We’re also discussing the suicidal tendencies of low functioning security droids, celebrating the departure of a cranky old sexist, and paying our respects to an Orlando hero.  All that, plus Liz’s mom gets downright dirty!

Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

BONUS EPISODE AFTER CREDITS! There’s a full breakdown of the Game of Thrones season premier! All of the spoilers!

This week it’s a recap of D23, Disney’s biennial victory lap around geek culture. And, since you people voted for it, we’re covering all of it. All of it. Seriously. There was a lot.

But fear not, there’s more! We’ve also got a debate on the new Doctor, exposition on Elon, a bit of Dammit for DC. All that, plus the Tick underwhelms! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!!

SPIDER-MAN HOMECOMING SPOILERS AHEAD!

Guys. Seriously. We’ve got a Star Trek v Star Wars knife fight.

We could have spent the whole hour just on that, but alas, there is so much more to cover. We’ve got to talk about Al’s incredible losing streak, the incredible lack of Terry Crews, and the incredible meh that is Castlevania. So… overall… the episode is pretty... I don’t know. I can’t think of a word to use here.  

We’re so excited!! Nixie and Grace from There’s No Place Like Terra join us to give Dan what he’s been begging for since his arrival- an episode dedicated to Stargate.

Of course, there’s a lot more to this episode than MacGyver and wormholes. We’ve also got Star Trek going back to its roots (and then stomping on them), Supernatural announcing they’re done (in two more seasons), and Sense8 gets a reprieve (for a single 2 hour movie). All that, plus black hole knife fights! Thanks for listening, and SUBSCRIBE!

Also… Patreon.

…did you hear about our Patreon?

This week we welcome the owner and operator of the Indie Game Alliance, Mr. Matt Holden. His group helps small board games designers get their projects made, and it’s pretty impressive. Except for the whole Antarctica thing. But hey, no one’s perfect.

Of course, we can’t stop there! We’ve also got the latest on the Han Solo debacle, we check out the latest on the Supernatural spinoff, and we pay homage as Harry Potter celebrates 20 years. All that, plus Al calls out Nerdist!
