July 31, 2020 E559 Geekscape 559: Vinnie Fiorello's New Ska + Comics Project 'The Inevitables'!
New Geekscape time! As the drummer and lyricist for the popular ska punk band Less Than Jake, Vinnie Fiorello helped define the soundtrack to my life. As one of the co-founders of Fueled By Ramen Records, he introduced the world to bands like Fall Out Boy, Paramore, The Gym Class Heroes and Geekscape's favorite band and theme song artist Punchline! He also has his own collectible toy line and shop, new indie publishing label and more!
Now Vinnie is a guest on the Geekscape podcast to talk about his new creative pursuit: the ska and comic book hybrid 'The Inevitables'! Fans of The Umbrella Academy, Tank Girl and Y: The Last Man will probably love 'The Inevitables', which also features the talents of Obi Fernandez (Westbound Train, Meen Machine)
Jono Diener (The Swellers), Alex Stern (Big D and the Kids Table),
Matt Appleton (Reel Big Fish), Billy Kottage (The Interrupters) and more! It's a long list of both music and comics talent so sorry I'm being short here!

Grae Drake is a host, journalist and film critic who has been featured on outlets like CNN, Rotten Tomatoes and Fandango... but first and foremost, Grae Drake is a friend! After first meeting Grae on a WonderCon press line who knows how many years ago, I knew that her specific brand of outspoken weird would be perfect for coming on the show. But it's been too long and now we're in the midst of a global pandemic! Grae returns to the show today to check in, catch us up on some news, share a cry about the lack of Comic Con in our lives this summer and more!

July 17, 2020 E556 Remembering Our Friend Grant Imahara
On Monday we lost our friend Grant Imahara and I can't just do a business as usual Geekscape episode without honoring him. So many of you loved him and were fans of his. He was kind, brilliant and it is not hyperbole to say that he was the best of all of us.
While I considered Grant a friend and felt honored every time I got to see him or have him laugh at my jokes, there are many others who were closer to him. Similar to what I did two weeks ago for my brother Daniel, tonight I'm talking with some of Grant's friends to hear and celebrate stories about him.
If you'd like to be included, please send me a message. I don't want anyone to not feel welcome and have asked some people who respectfully and understandably are not up to it yet. This will be rough at times but is intended as a small celebration of someone who is still with us in many ways. I'd like to keep telling his stories.

June 26, 2020 E554 Geekscape 554: The 'Casting The Net' Team Talk Hollywood Diversity!
With so many niche outlets and creators out there making their own content, it has either never been easier or harder to get your work seen! So whether you are female, black, LGBTQ+, Asian, Latino or other let's talk about amplifying your independent voice in Hollywood by making your own content for your own audience.
This episode I'm joined by the cast and creative team behind the independent show 'Casting the Net' to talk about creating a series with Black female leads, distributing it on an independent niche platform and the challenges and advantages that come with it! Series director Andrew P. Jones joins me along with series star Linara Washington (Killing Them Softly) and actors Willard Pugh (RoboCop 2, Airforce One, The Color Purple) and Charley Koontz (CSI: Cyber, Community) to talk about making the series, how the independent filmmaking scene is changing to be more inclusive (or not) and of course I'm going to ask about working with Stephen Spielberg.
