Geekscape

Doug Jones, maybe the nicest guest we've ever had, is back on Geekscape! Doug talks about his new book "Mime Very Own Book", his roles in the upcoming releases John Dies at the End and Neighborhood Watch and working with actors like Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn. He also shares his love for all things Abe Sapien and how he felt having his performance as the Silver Surfer ADR'ed. Also, what did Doug, a mime and often silent actor, think of "The Artist"? Also, Jonathan explains why "The Grey" is the funniest movie of the year and tells you why you should be reading B.P.R.D.!

Mike Park is a musician, activist and the owner of indie label Asian Man Records. A few years ago, my friend Todd Bell and I made a video for Mike's song "Asian Prodigy". But that's not my first exposure to Mike. As you'll learn from the episode, he's been a part of making great music for over 20 years, both as a musician and by releasing albums by his friends and artists he enjoys. In this Geekscape, we talk about getting older, Mike becoming a father, the state of the recording industry, his activism and what's kept him making music so long. Oh, and h plays some songs! Also, the college I went to see the Ska Against Racism Tour was Villanova, not Vanderbilt as I said on the podcast!

Cheaters host Joey Greco invited me over to record a Geekscape conversation about Cheaters, acting and just plain old human honesty. I've been wanting to have Joey on the show since I met him at San Diego Comic Con in 2010 and I'm glad he was able to give me an hour to talk candidly about a lot of touchy subjects like infidelity, lawsuits that Cheaters has faced and Joey's own stabbing while filming an episode. We also talk a bit about Joey's other projects, including Ghostbreakers, his acting work and just how legit the Cheaters Spy equipment is! I think you guys will get a ton out of this episode!

I've wanted to have my friend Cooper Barnes back on the show for a long time now. You guys might remember him from an episode from a few months ago. Well, that was before he auditioned for Saturday Night Live, a story that I had to have him come on the show and tell. Also, Cooper talks about his upcoming pilot The Men's Room and says that Red Tails is actually pretty good! Enjoy!

Warning! This episode has a ton of sex talk in it! Satine Phoenix is an artist, sculptor, roleplaying game enthusiast and model. She invited me to be a part of a fundraising D and D gaming event and I thought it was long since she should have come on the show to talk Dungeons and Dragons, her former career as a stripper and porn actress and her own writing and artwork. Why not have her on to talk about this fundraising event? Also, she talks all about the scandal of purposefully bringing women by the Geekscape booth at Comic Con to try and ruin Jonathan's life!

But Barrett will soon appear in "The Inbetweeners" for MTV, TV's "Awake" with Jason Isaacs and tons more. In this episode, we discuss acting, auditioning, Youtube haters, Reddit activists and stand up comedy. I think you'll dig this guy as much as I did. Listen to us become instant friends in this episode!

Elizabeth "Kitty McScratch" Bolinger is a surprise guest that I really had to have on the show. She currently holds 103 registered world records in dance and rhythm gaming (and claims to have another 100 that are still being submitted). The Guinness World Record people contacted Geekscape about talking to Elizabeth and since Geekscape always needs more gamers and female subjects, I thought it would be a great idea. I think you will too! We talk about record breaking, old school games versus new school, if videogames cause violence, being hit on by guys online and a ton more! Enjoy!

My guest this episode is author Matt Mogk, the head of the Zombie Research Society. Even if you're not into zombies, this is a pretty fascinating episode. Matt talks about the origins of the modern day zombie, what the best zombie movies are and how to really survive a zombie apocalypse. And then Matt proceeds to scare the hell out of everyone by talking about what would actually happen in a zombie apocalypse and how close we might actually be to it happening! Plus!
