Geekdown Podcast

Netflix drops the hammer on password sharing (then promptly picks it back up), we discuss how in or out we are on the announced slate of DC projects coming under the James Gunn regime, plus updates on everything we've been checking out including Vera, Maison Ikkoku, Youtube DJ sets and more.
