Geek Fights

HAPPY NEW YEAR! We star the year with a look at a Geek Fights Favorite. 20 years ago Star Trek moved beyond the voyages of the starship Enterprise and into a new era! Join Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz, Josh Perrigo George Jackson and Miles McLoughlin as they discuss the BEST STAR TREK DEEP SPACE NINE CHARACTER. It's a celebration of humans, Trill, Klingons, Cardassians, Bajorans, Changelings and a ton of Ferengi.

And he ramble about it in a sleep deprived haze for almost an hour! Spoilers for a movie you should have already seen!

From Wikipedea:

"Pretty in Pink" is a song by the English rock band The Psychedelic Furs, originally released in 1981 as a single from the band's second album, Talk Talk Talk. The song inspired the 1986 film of the same name and a re-recorded version of the song was included on the film's soundtrack.

Release and reception

The original version of "Pretty in Pink" peaked at number 43 on the UK Singles Chart in July 1981.[1] Allmusic writer Bill Janovitz credits producer Steve Lillywhite for finding "the ideal sound for the band, with a perfect blend of classic pop, punk, and art rock elements".[2] Janovitz called it "the definitive take" of the song.[2]

Thanks to Greg Blanchard of the Inappropriate Conversations podcast for the suggestion.

Just in case BEST SANTA wasn't bad enough, we present you the outtakes from that episode. Yep this is the stuff that didn't make the cut. See what Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz, Allen, Brian Townsend and Josh Vanvalkneborg had to say when they weren't Geek Fighting. You know how the 26th is the day you return the presents you don't want? Well this is like that. Or maybe it's a boxing day thing. I'm not really sure.

Once a year an elderly fat man in red traverses the globe violating airspace and nearly triggering a nuclear holocaust just to bring toys to mostly undeserving children. You know to cover that much ground he must be either traveling at an incredible velocity, risking massive shockwaves or using some sort of warp technology and risking a wormhole implosion that could suck the entire planet into a black hole. All in all a pretty risky endeavor any way you slice it. Sounds like some sort of thrill seeking adrenaline junkie to me. In honor of that spirit, Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz, Allen, Brian Townsend and Josh Vanvalkenburg bring you BEST SANTA.

Ho ho ho.

So last year I said we were going to keep releasing out original BEST HOLIDAY SPECIAL OR MOVIE every year, over and over again until you get sick of it, just like all the great holiday specials, and yep we're doing it. But last year we remastered it and added a little bonus material, this year we are presenting the first ever commentary track on one of our episodes. Its Mike Ortiz talking over Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz, Kathy Lehman, Tess Craft and Allen in his very first Geek Fights appearance. So what will we do to the show next year? Well you are just gonna have to wait a year to find out!

To help cleanse the pallet of the manifesto he just read, Chris reads a true classic. Green Eggs & Ham by Theodor Seuss Geisel, a.k.a. Dr Seuss. It is one of the most beloved books of all time. First published in 1960, its is the 4th best selling english language children's book ever. Even Mike read it during the childhood he didn't have. It's a wonderful fanciful story brought to life by a wonderful fanciful man. Thanks Chris! This is the kind of stuff Chris Reads should be doing. This and erotic slash fiction between Damon and various fictional characters. Seriously where is the Damon/Samwise porn? Maybe combine it with this one.

I would not lick them here or there.

I would not lick them anywhere.

I would not lick Damon's balls and shaft.

I do not like them, Samwise-I-laughed.

Come on someone finish that...

This one is Mike's fault. Ted Kaczynski was a nut. Not the crazy tin foil hat wearing ranting nut, that's fun, but rather a dry, intelligent, academic nut and his manifesto is no different. A thoughtful critique of Industrial Society and Its Future. A deep well thought out, well written dissertation on the economic and social issues of our time that contains many interesting points and a call for change. He then supports it by blowing sh!t up and killing people. Way to Teddy.

Listen all the way though, Chris then reads some excellent poetry at the end. He is a sexy man indeed.

Please send in some more stuff for Chris to read so he doesn't have to read things like this. I'm sure just posting it got us on a Government watch list, and you are probably on one now just for downloading it. Chris isn't, because he's in the UK. They have cameras everywhere. They're being watched all the time.

We've done Marvel, we've done DC, now we turn take a look at the big guns of the little guys. Join Damon Shaw, Mike Ortiz, Jason Thompson, Chris Fiore and Jeremy Sacher as they give you the INDY COMICS SHOWDOWN. It's strange blend of Superman knockoffs, funny animals, murderous children, cops, barbarians and a vampire. And a bunch are Robert Kirkman creations, but none are Battle Pope.

Heres that URL for the indy comics Cantankerous Kickstarter project.
