  • GGP #11 – Star Wars Spoiler Spectacular





    By now you have hopefully seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens. If not, why not? It's an amazing movie that you really need to go and see. That being said, the movie has been out now for a few weeks, and so there is no reason for you to get angry about spoilers; however, this episode is nothing but spoiler after spoiler after spoiler. You have been warned.

  • GGP #9 – What Were They Thinking?


    GGP is back with a new episode, but there is much confusion. People don't like David Tennant being evil in Jessica Jones, Peter Jackson is making things up as he goes, George Lucas is acting like a jilted lover, and Warner Brothers and DC are trying to show the entirety of Batman vs. Superman in a single trailer! Join Collin and Zohner as they try to make sense of this crazy, crazy world of geekdom in which we live.



    * Civil War
    * Superman vs. Spoilers
    * Jessica Jones

  • GGP #8 – Darth Jar Jar


    Have you ever stopped to think about what if Jar Jar Binks wasn't really a bumbling fool, but was actually the "menace" in The Phantom Menace? Someone on Reddit actually did just that, and they pose a lot of really good points that Zuke and Zohner discuss on this week's episode.

    Yeah, it's another episode in which we discuss Star Wars. But should that really surprise anyone at this point? But in fairness, we do talk about other stuff too...

    * Toy Hall of Fame inductees for 2015 announced
    * A new Star Trek TV series has been announced
    * Netflix diversifies its offerings
    * Possible The Force Awakens spoiler
    * Dying Star Wars fan gets advanced screening
    * Disney does not like "Slave Leia"
    * Darth Jar Jar?

  • GGP #7 – Back To The Fantastic Four


    Back to the Future Day has come and gone, and now when you watch the Back to the Future films, you can take peace in knowing that the trilogy is now set entirely in the past. Zuke and Zohner discuss the good and bad of these iconic movies, as well as some rumors of a possible trade between Marvel and Fox that would bring the Fantastic Four into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And what kind of podcast would we be if we failed to mention controversy regarding the most recent issue of Captain America? Answer: not a very good one.

    * Fox and Marvel trading Fantastic Four?
    * Fox says nope
    * People don't like politics mixing with comics

  • GGP #6 – Super Star Wars Spectacular


    It's a super Star Wars spectacular episode of the newest offering from The Generic Geek Podcast! If you have listened to the show, or really to any of the Stolendroids shows, you know that there are few things out there that Zohner loves more than Star Wars. And since the new trailer was released earlier this week, why not devote an entire podcast to that which is so loved? Well, that's exactly what we do so sit back and hear Zohner and Zuke discuss the new trailer and all of the good, and bad, surrounding the upcoming The Force Awakens.

    Do you think that the new Star Wars movie will be as epic as expected? Send your thoughts to [email protected].

  • GGP #5 – Joker Issues


    The Joker is undeniably one of the greatest villains in all of comic books. Heck, it could probably be argued that he is one of the best villains from any medium. And when it comes to definitive Joker stories, there are few better than Alan Moore's The Killing Joke. Which is why it comes as no surprise that DC has green-lit an animated adaptation of the story, but rumor has it that they have also signed off on it having an R rating. Good idea? We discuss our thoughts, as well as the Joker's origin being developed before our eyes on Gotham, Superman's new identity, Princess Leia's bikini selling for a lot of money, but her ship selling for more, and a follow-up on the Whopper of Death.

    * Watch Collin be awkward with the ladies
    * Superman has a new secret identity
    * Will Gotham give The Joker a real origin story?
    * The Killing Joke gets animated
    * Awesome Harry Potter casting news
    * Expensive gold bikini is expensive

    Special thanks to our buddies over at Idiot Box Productions for giving us some amazing footage of Collin being awkward with professional cosplayer, Megan Golden.

  • GGP #4 – Whopper of Death


    Since it's October, and because things are supposed to be scary, Burger King has created the most scary of all food items: a black Whopper! Technically it's called the A.1. Halloween Whopper, but after looking at it, and reading about what it does to you AFTER being consumed, I'm going to call it the Whopper of Death. Although, I should probably call it the A.1. Halloween Whopper of Death to ensure that it doesn't get confused with the regular Whopper of Death which doesn't have a black bun but still will kill you if you eat enough of them.

    By the way, The Generic Geek Podcast is back with episode 4! As you may have guessed, we talk about fast food and what it does to one's body. We also discuss Salt Lake Comic Con 2015, the newest iteration of DC's Red Tornado, some Star Wars: Episode VIII rumors, and how one of the Batman creators is finally getting the credit he deserves.

    * Black Whopper has… side effects
    * Salt Lake Comic Con Recap
    * Those faces
    * Red Tornado is red
    * Hayden Christensen to reprise role as Darth Vader?
    * Bill Finger finally gets credit

    Special thanks to Schmidty for filling in this week as Collin suffered a tragic death at Comic Con. Hopefully he gets better in time for next week’s episode.

  • GGP #3 – Death of a Superhero Movie
    The superhero movie genre is currently all the rage. It seems as though everyone loves them, and unless they are about a group of four individuals who happen to be "Fant4stic," they generally make lots and lots of money. So what's the problem? Well, according to Steven Spielberg, at some point in the future they are going to ride off into the sunset and become as rare as the westerns of old. Is he right? For the time being, it's obvious that the genre isn't going anywhere, but what does the future hold for these tales of mythical beings? Well, Collin and Zohner discuss just that in this week's episode of The Generic Geek Podcast.

    Oh yeah, we also discuss some news about Star Wars Episode VIII. Spolier warnings are in effect.

    * Spielberg predicts the death of superhero movies
    * Avengers: Age of Ultron was a failure
    * Star Wars coming to Netflix?
    * Star Wars casting confirmed

    What do you think the future holds for the superhero movie? Is it as dark as a Christopher Nolan Batman film? Are Spielberg, and the Generic Geeks, correct in their assessment? Let us know!

  • Pre Comic Con Chat

    Salt Lake Comic Con is almost here!

    Have a listen as Zohner, without Collin (who may or may not have died as the result of a large soundboard falling on him, crushing his internal organs), sits down in the offices of Salt Lake Comic Con boss man, Dan Farr, to discuss the convention that only is a mere two weeks away. We discuss previous conventions, what has been fun to see, and the possibility of additional guests being added to this year's lineup.

    Also, if you are in the Intermountain West and want to attend one of the best conventions in the country, tickets for Salt Lake Comic Con are still available! Don't delay! This is going to be a great event that you definitely want to be a part of.
