Geekdown Podcast

One last hang with your new BFFs before we take off for summer break, and we go out with a pair of heavy hitters: Tokyo Tarareba Girls, the latest project from the woman who gave us Princess Jellyfish, and the celebrated take on Jack Kirby's New God, 2017's Mister Miracle from Tom King and Mitch Gerads. How'd those go over? Surprisingly. You'll have to listen to find out why.

Also this ep! One last round of Star Wars stupidity to send us off, a breezy round of chit chat and updates to what we've been enjoying this week, including Megalo Box, Doomsday Clock and the work of Sue Grafton.

Thanks for hanging, friends! We'll be back on August 7!

We also work through some sartorial dilemmas, offer protips on improving office life, chat about the Chloe Dykstra Medium post sent a rumble through nerdery this week and a handful of updates on what we've been checking out, including "The Staircase" and "FLCL: Progressive."

The summer lazies are starting to settle in, so it's kind of a meandering wander through an episode of the Geekdown this week through 80s toy lines, the continuing stupidity of Star Wars fans, the squandering of creative freedom and so much more before settling into a chat about the 2014 animated film The Book of Life and the 2016 anime Mob Psycho 100.

Back like we left something, your new BFFs to talk 'Wotakoi,' one of the buzzier shows of the Spring '18 anime season, and 'The Ministry of Time,' a hidden gem from Spain sitting on your Netflix that you may have missed. How'd they go over? Answers await.

Also this ep! Beef season back, Cait saw Solo, Jordan's heart remains open to Terrace House and the usual blend of chit chat you know and love. Thanks for listening, friends!

Out of time this week, but a meaty episode nevertheless, as we check in on the recently wrapped dark comedy "Barry," from HBO, co-created by and starring a Geekdown Hall of Heroes member Bill Hader.

Also this ep! Caitlin's continuing education, Jordan's throwback gamer rage, the burning monstrosity that is Netflix's 'Rea(l)ove' and so much more.

It's the tension that fuels this podcast more often than not: can impressionistic, episodic narratives work as effectively as straightforward tales with rising action and climax? That's what we're getting into this week as we look at the Sandra Bullock rehab drama 28 Days and the historical anime film Miss Hokusai. Did we reach a conclusion? Answers await.

Also this ep! The war with fuckery continues, fandoms are awful, a quick check in on Deadpool 2, the love of a good tote bag and more.

A return to format this week as your new BFFs welcome back a pair of show MVPs: Killing Eve, the latest from Pheobe Waller-Bridge (she of Fleabag) and Pushing Daisies, another installment of the Fullerverse from writer-showrunner Bryan Fuller.

Also this ep! snack disappointments, declined plans, emotional rollercoasters, a vigorous debate on how odd is too odd and more. Thanks for hanging with us, friends!

Been the hottest of minutes since we just had a sit around the table and yap about whatever came to mind, so this week that's what we did! Not only that, we're joined by Chief Brown Correspondent Khaiam Dar to talk about all manner of things not limited to but including: Dear White People, Altered Carbon, Teen Titans GO!, John Mulaney's latest Netflix special, the White House Correspndents Dinner, Kanye, Khaled and 'Bino. As well as multiple examples of why we shouldn't have a guest on the pod before getting another microphone, and maybe a pen to corral them in.
