Joseph Mulinaro (Joey Marinara) stops by to talk all things that come up. Steve and Joe discuss football, Star Wars, toys of old, kids today (read that like an old man complaining… “kids today…ugh”) and whether or not we should expect a younger generation to develop the same fondness for things that people from the Star Wars generation developed. It’s a wide range of discussions and some good times…AND STEVE DIDN’T GET TO THE ANIMAL STORIES THAT JOE SENT. In fact, it’s never mentioned…well…there’s always the next episode. Your safe place to geek out is on the air.

Dave Jones sits in on this episode of Geek Out Loud as Steve tries out a new bit that makes Dave laugh…but not necessarily anyone else. The guys talk Chattanooga Comicon as well as other geeky type topics. Then Steve goes full Big Honkin Show with some serious Animapocalypse news out of South Carolina. From there….it’s a just a free for all. We hope you enjoy and have fun on your safe place to Geek Out!

Steve decides to have a little fun. Classic Zoo Crewers show up in the chat. And a new game is born…will the GI Joe opening monologue fit in the instrumental break of pop or rock songs? Derek then stops by to talk about the big things that have stuck with us since childhood as well as just chew the fat about the first ever Smallville convention. From there chaos strikes as Steve’s computer crashes…and let’s be honest – that kind of thing always takes the wind right out of Steve’s sails. So the show ends after that pretty quickly. It’s a fun time on your safe place to geek out!

The March Madness brackets continue into July…now August. Steve goes on a rant about respecting fandom. The Goliverse bids farewell to one of its own. Steve looks for cartoon intro covers. Because the chat got him to. It’s a bittersweet bundle of mediocrity. It’s your safe place to geek out.

Steve opens the show waiting to join another show, only to discover that other show isn’t happening. It is Steve’s fault…he’s neither a good listener nor a good reader. He may need to walk the reading rainbow. From that confession we enter back into the March(ish) Madness(ish) Bracket(ish). Titanic v. Halloween, Braveheart v. Inception, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly v. Forrest Gump, and The Godfather tries to make Rocky an offer he can’t refuse. Spoiler Alert…Steve refused. Have fun with episode of GEEK OUT LOUD!

We’ll celebrate episode 300 later. For now we continue the quest to find the greatest movie score to date. On this episode to help us do that is David Fischer. David has been very active in the chat in these discussions, so with his knowledge of movie it made sense to call him up and bring him in. He did not disappoint. Together with the mixlr chat, he and Steve finish out round one of the comedy/other division. After that Steve talks a little Ghostbusters and offends Italians everywhere while doing a Big Honkin Show style story about a an escaped lion. So much more to happen with the brackets, and it will be happening soon! For now, enjoy this episode of your safe place to geek out.

The March(ish) Madness(ish) Tournament(ish) begins(ish). We start the show by trying to lay out the entire process of getting to this point without getting derailed. That doesn’t go so great. Then we get into the first four match ups of round 1. Lots of music, lots of fun on this one. We hope you enjoy! Check out the full bracket at geekoutonline.com If you are in a position to support the podcast we greatly appreciate you doing so at patreon. Buckle up folks, we have no plans for episode 300…but we have a looong way to go with this tounament(ish).

Pre-qualifying rounds for the biggest undertaking in the history of Geek Out Loud begin as we choose the best Star Wars score, the best musical score, we start the best animated film score, and finally pick the best Superhero movie score. Still tons to go. Check out the facebook group and Geek out Loud twitter for polls to help narrow down the brackets. Also, for bracket updates, check out geekoutonline.com

Steve discusses pulp in orange juice. Then the show highlights what “safe place to geek out” means. From there a discussion of the Fantastic Four casting and the MCU gets underway. After short break Steve discusses the next March Madness brackets and gives instructions how YOU can participate. Then it’s onto some interesting stories of note that have little to do with geekdom. There’s gross, there’s criminal, and there’s a racoon that thinks he’s rocket…well…not anymore. All this and fun on GEEK OUT LOUD!

Steve and Lucas (Birthday Twins) sit down to celebrate their birthday by hanging with the GOLiverse and talking all things geeky. Topics range from toy collecting (an unopened figure is actually opened on air…GASP!!!!), Elvis (That’s right…Elvis), the difference between actresses (right at the beginning), all the way to Godzilla Minus One (Minus Color). It’s a fun time just hanging out and shooting the breeze about whatever comes to mind…a classic GOL if you will. ON THE MARCH TO 300!!!!
