Geeks Without God

This week’s episode was recorded live at CONvergence 2024. We invited the audience to submit ideas for an episode and selected Nikki Armstrong, who wanted to talk about Sizeism in Cosplay. Nikki spent the weekend engaging in self described “fat girl does skinny” cosplay with costumes that included Leeloo from “The Fifth Element” and Kim Possible. She talked about the challenges when it comes to cosplay when you are not the size everything is designed to fit.

This week, we are talking about the latest film in the Mad Max series – Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Anya Taylor Joy takes over the role of Furiosa in this prequel to Fury Road and we spoil the shit out of the movie. Granted, it’s a Mad Max movie so spoilers may not matter much to you. Aside from the ones on the cars. Listen in if you’d like to know our thoughts!

This week, Tim is going to tell us about his recent trip to Europe and the way the Catholicism is pretty much everywhere. He visited a lot of churches and didn’t get struck by lightning in any of them. What were his impressions of these places? And what is a reliquary?

It’s time for a boners episode! For those unfamiliar, this is an episode where we talk about the stuff that has our geeky hearts excited. Maybe some of you will be excited as well! We sure hope so.

This week we are taking look at common superstitions. Where did they come from? Do we, as non believers still hold on to some of those superstitions or do we gleefully shout “Macbeth” in a theater every chance we get?
