Geekdown Podcast

Jord and Cait are getting Dark this week, taking a break from format to check out the creepy German sci-fi import from Netflix. Did the time jumping mystery fill them with the good or bad kind of dread? Answers await.

Also this week! Bringing babies to the D&D sesh, the hazards of the digital marketplace, Jordan read a book, and so much more. Thanks for listening, friends!

On to the next hundred episodes of the Geekdown, your new BFFs return to format this week, looking at the 90s sci-fi classic Gattaca and a sleeper about life after war from the Winter '18 anime season, Netflix's Violet Evergarden.

Also this ep! Jordan accepts that he's washed, Star Trek Discovery has won Cait's heart, Marvel continues to have a bad year, libraries are killing it and all the rascality you've come to expect from us. Thanks for listening, friends!

WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE AUDIO QUALITY. 😓

After many false starts, Episode 100 of The Geekdown is here! Jord and Cait pop a bottle, talk about what the show's meant to them and tackle a few philosophical conundrums on matters great and irrelevant while trying the whole time to avoid slipping into 'vlogger voice.'

Thank you so much to everyone who's listened to the show, tweeted, emailed, commented, stopped us on the street, or just acknowledged us. We are small, yet we are mighty, and we are proud of what we've built, and remain floored that people enjoy it. We hope you ride with us for the next 100.

CONTINUE TO PUT THE CHAPMAGNE DOWN. THIS IS STILL NOT GEEKDOWN 100.

But your new BFFs are reunited around the table, which isn't Skype, so y'know, baby steps.

In keeping with Geekdown tradition, we look at a pair of things that could not be more dissimilar, the recent Netflix live-action adaptation of the acclaimed manga "Erased," and the Marilyn Monroe classic, "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes." We've also got lots of chit-chat, both inane and important, drop a news story or two, and share what we've been checking out including more Father Brown, returning favourites like Star Trek Discovery and The Good Place, and Jordan's poor time management in Persona 5.

As promised on last week's show, as an apology for not delivering Geekdown100 in a timely fashion, here's the first of the bonus episodes, recorded last year and originally only available to show Patrons. Cait gives Jordan some backgrounding on Dungeons and Dragons, and prepares him for the quest ahead.

Thank for your patience friends, we appreciate it. If this chicanery strikes you as something you'd like more of, you can discover how to get it over at the Patreon page: patreon.com/geekdownpod

Geekdown100 still coming sooner than Kingdom Hearts III.

PUT THE CHAMPAGNE DOWN. THIS IS NOT EPISODE 100 OF THE GEEKDOWN.

Due to a combination of illness and frigid weather, Jord and Cait were not able to meet in person this week, so they put the actual Geekdown100 on hold, which is really the most Geekdown thing they could have done. Instead, we give you a standard in-format ep, kicking off hashtag-comf-season with the BBC's adaptation of the Father Brown Mysteries by GK Chesterton, and Amazon's dramatic comedy 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,' fresh from its anointing at this week's Golden Globes.

Also loads of chit chat, updates on what we've been watching and playing, and a long overdue implementation of a policy regarding dick towels.

The year was a hot pile of grrrrrrrbge, but there were still some things worth celebrating, so that's what we're doing. Jord and Cait pick the three things they loved best from the past twelve months of podcasting, the one single topic champion, and the one that boofed the hardest.

Also! Chitchat and the usual hangs. It was a holiday ep, what do you want.

Next up? Geekdown 100.

LISTENER ADVISORY: Light spoilers for The Last Jedi in the second half, but we give you ample warning.

It's Christmas time again, and in the spirit of giving your new BFFs are looking at the one thing they can't believe the other person hasn't seen: the acclaimed crime drama Breaking Bad and a small indie film about laser swords, Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Also this ep! the hazards of doling out takes fast and loose, getting the creeping horrors from a visual novel about poetry, a flip phone on a selfie stick and all the updates to what we're watching and planning to watch over the holidays.

Thanks for hanging, friends! And have a peaceful and relaxing holiday break watching and reading and eating all the things you love.

Request day on the Geekdown as we look at the recent anime sleeper hit "Recovery of an MMO Junkie" and make good on a promise (or threat)by starting our examination of musicals, the Oscar-winning "Chicago." Also, loads of Marvel talk, Cait levels up, a beloved supporting character makes her return to the pod, and the hangs you love. We also preview the rest of the year on Geekdown in advance of the sure to be legendary Episode 100. Be sure to listen to the tag this week, Cait's life has been changed.

Getting downright witchy on the pod this week as we look at the all ages gem from Studio Trigger, 'Little Witch Academia,' and the 1980s sexual farce from the director of Mad Max, "The Witches of Eastwick." How was that? Answers await.

ALSO! The curious case of Akira Yoshida, Avengers trailer talk, Cait's astronomy minute, updates to what we've watched and 90% less video game talk.
