MAJOR SPOILERS in this episode for both the comic series and TV show called Paper Girls. What would your 12-year-old self think of you right now in your life? This is one of the questions we answer for ourselves in this episode as we compare and talk about Paper Girls, the comics and the new TV show now streaming on Amazon Prime. We also cover wibbly wobbly stuff like time travel too, so don’t worry. SHOW NOTES: groundedgeeks.medium.com

Welcome to Part 2 of our discussion of Love, Death & Robots Volume 3. This time we discuss three different episodes titled, "Bad Travelling," "The Very Pulse of the Machine," and "Mason's Rats." All of these episodes had us thinking about life as we DON'T know it. And by life, we mean what constitutes a living thing? Can artificial intelligence be living? What kind of creatures live in the deep ocean that wouldn't necessarily meet the definition of life? In the future, how will animals evolve in ways that we can barely imagine? So many questions and not nearly enough answers, but join us for the conversation anyway. SHOW NOTES: groundedgeeks.medium.com

SPOILERS for the Netflix show, The Umbrella Academy season 3. Naturally on this episode we had to discuss the unraveling of spacetime, what is real or not, whether a bad deed is worth it if it's for the greater good, and...you get to hear Lena's cat, Raya, meowing in the background. We hope you find it more endearing than Aman did. SHOW NOTES: groundedgeeks.medium.com

SPOILERS in this episode for Marvel's latest movie, Thor: Love and Thunder. Alright buckle up, fellow geeks because on this episode we talk about Greek gods, witches, vampires (briefly), grief, our purpose in life, and how Marvel villains continue to be right. And never forget: Don't meet your heroes. Enjoy! SHOW NOTES: groundedgeeks.medium.com

We're taking a small break this week (mostly because we're human and we're tired), HOWEVER, in light of the recent news about Wakanda Forever at San Diego Comic Con, we're diving into the Grounded Geeks vault to bring you an episode we did in 2016 about Black Panther. Since Black Panther, the MCU movie did not exist at the time of this recording, this episode focuses specifically on the comic book character that Ta-Nehisi Coates wrote and developed. Hope you enjoy it and we'll be back with new episodes next week!

SPOILERS in this episode for season 3 of The Boys, streaming on Amazon Prime. So in addition to having daddy issues, the Boys also have a whole lot of toxic masculinity issues, superiority complexes, inferiority complexes, and unrequited love. We also talked a ton about corporations and corruption, celebrities and their tone-deafness, and January 6. Oh and the patriarchy still sucks. SHOW NOTES: groundedgeeks.medium.com

MAJOR SPOILERS in this episode about Stranger Things Season 4 Volume 2, which did not disappoint! There were many outcomes we didn't agree with, but as per usual, the show gave us plenty to discuss, including but not limited to: untimely deaths, the four horsemen of the apocalypse, the importance of teaching your kids empathy, and breaking the cycle of abuse.

MAJOR SPOILERS in this episode for the Disney+ series, Obi-Wan Kenobi. A lot has happened recently. Obi-Wan and Darth Vader had another epic light saber duel, little Leia proved that she was born to be a commander at the age of 10, and the fight for good over evil never seems to end. This episode naturally had us also talking about the extremist Empire, which reminded us of the Supreme Court of the United States and its recent ruling concerning abortion rights. Besides that, we also touched on Shakespeare, the Odyssey, and balance in the universe. SHOW NOTES: groundedgeeks.medium.com
