Geeks Explain It All

Welcome to our Filmation episode(That'll seem funnier in about an hour!)So, after taking a year(!) off to deal with miscellaneous family tragedies and an Apocalypse or two, we are back with our look at the glory that was the Filmation studios. Sit back and relax, pour yourself a bowl of cold cereal(with extra sugar, of course) and and enjoy the show. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Not going to make a big fuss over a new episode(even though we should!). Suffice to say, we're back again, and this episode was a lot of fun. The Stan Lee reference obviously dates it, but still some very worthwhile discussion. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Remember when movies DIDN'T have superheroes in them? Remember when movies had ordinary people like you and me? Remember when we used to put out a new episode every other week? We Remember. And we talk about it. A lot.Much thanks to Pippa for all their help in getting this podcast and this episode up and running.Editor's note: The late, great, Burt Reynolds passed away after this episode was recorded. No disrespect is meant in ANY way. RIP Bandit. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This time around we are trying something a little different from our usual geekery, we are having the first of what we hope will be several discussions about Disney Movies.

Okay, campers, up and at 'em for a brand new year, and thus, a brand new episode (yes, we are going to do more than one new episode per year. I think.) Anyway, this time around we tackle the marvelous subject of Star Trek movies. Along the way we read a letter from the Tater, and get bleeped more than once. Betcha can't wait.

...Wherein Stratosphear completely loses his freakin' mind and castigates(look it up, fanboy) everybody's favorite franchise, Star Wars. Well, mostly the merchandising and marketing and...well, you get the idea. D-Dub mostly shrugs and says "okay", so as to not alienate what fans we have left. Check out the rant of the century here. If you want to rebut, refute, redoubt, reject OR recycle anything on this episode , send it to geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com PS. Big thanks to the guys at Sci-Fried, whom I used their "Star Wars Idiot" completely without their permission! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Well, we're finally starting to get back on track, and to prove it, we've got a dandy little episode of GEIA where we talk about that most beloved of classic rock institutions, the Power Trio.

Three words: WE ARE BACK!!!! We deeply apologize for the delay, but we've finally managed to record a new episode, and a pretty darned spiffy one, if we do say so ourselves(and we do).

Hello again, ye faithful, and welcome to another year of outstanding conversations about geek culture here at Geeks Explain It All. To get the new year started off in style we are proud to present a follow up to our most popular episode ever, The Dr. Who episode! When we last left our intrepid podcasters, Stratosphear had tentatively stuck his big tow in the deep pool of the Whovian universe. Now, most excellent study that he is, he now does a synchronized cannonball with D-Dub into the deep end An in-depth discussion of ALL the doctors follows. Is this the end of the discussion? Hardly!!! We ask you, the fans, to do two things: 1). Check out the episode at these coordinates. 2). Contact us at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall. 3). Give us feedback and ratings at iTunes! Let us know what you would like us to do for future shows, and whether we should attempt an ongiong Dr. Who show!

Hope you brought your quarters(or tokens) because we're back with our latest stroll down Memory Lane! We discuss the early days of arcade video game (along with some cool retro soundbites!) and then we move on to a discussion of Atari 2600 vs. Intellivision. To listen, just hit PLAYER ONE START. If there's a video game that was your favorite that we didn't discuss, drop us a line at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com. Well, next time, we find ourselves in the middle of the holiday season, along with the accompanying holiday music.

Remember when you used to read the comics when you were a kid? Remember when you lived for seeing your favorite characters every day? Remember when we used to update this thing more regularly? Well, fear not, true believers, for we here at GEIA remember those things too, and are prepared to discuss for hours(well, one hour, anyway) our favorites and why we like them. Check it out here. It feels like we barely scratched the surface on this one, so if you have a favorite that we didn't get to contact us at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com. Many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many, many,many,many,many,many,many,MANY thanks to Joe Eiden for filling in for this episode! Don't worry, guys, D-Dub will be back next time! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

You know that thing where a character on a show is played by more than one actor? Or their character is written off the show, only to be replaced by a different character(who basically fills the same role as the old one)? Strat and D-Dub make fine sport of this topic, and there are only two bleeps in the whole episode!!! Check it out here. Our topic next time(with a special mystery guest) will be comic strips, a brief history and some of our favorites. As always we can be reached at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Y'know, we here at GEIA would like to say, for the record, that real life sucks. Why, you may ask? Well, for one thing it keeps getting in the way of us getting to record your(and coincidentally, our) favorite show. But eventually the planets align and we come with a gem of a show like this one. And what do we thrill the masses with this time around? Why none other than a discussion of a subject near and dear to D-Dub's heart since he was a kid, the great ape himself, KING KONG! Check it out here.  We are attempting to get back on a regular schedule, so please be patient with us kids, We've got some really good shows that are coming up in the next few months. In the meantime ,as always, contact us at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeeksexplainitall.com R.I.P. Robin Williams. You were inspirational and you will be missed. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Just to do something a little different , this time around our discussion is not about a specific pop culture topic, but rather about different ways that we experience said pop culture. We get into the history of both recorded music and video, and how that has affected our perceptions of things. Check it out! Many, many thanks to Joe Eiden for suggesting this weeks topic. If you have an idea for a future show, or just like to hear your name said out loud, contact us at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com Our topic next time will be a subject that is near and dear to D-Dub's heart: The history and phenomenon of... KONG! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Ever notice how people with little(or at the very least limited)talent keep getting roles in movies and making tons o' money? Well so do we, and we felt it was about time somebody did some serious ranting and raving about this subject!!! Do you agree with our choices? Or do you feel we're crazy(or uninformed)? Let us know at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com. Our topic for next time is somewhat clouded in secrecy, but we can tell you it will involve a bit of a history lesson, and it was suggested by our good friend, Joe Eiden! Betcha can't wait! R.I.P. Casey Kasem! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Ever wondered what happened to your favorite bands? Well, this time around we discuss OUR favorites and what happened to them(eh,close enough). We discuss, Little River Band, Greg Kihn, and several others. WARNING: If you are a die-hard fan of Michael Stanley, you might want to pass this episode up. If on the other hand, you want some good dirt and hear D-Dub lose his s**t, by all means take a listen! If you have suggestions for future shows, suggestions on how we have betrayed a Cleveland favorite, or even Post-hypnotic suggestions, go to geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com and as they say, let 'er rip!!! Since this was about artists that we love(or used to anyway), we thought next time around we'd talk about who we hate. Well, hate is maybe TOO strong a word, but we will be asking "How do these people keep finding work?????" Until next time, remember, if there's an exception to every rule, is there an exception to THAT rule? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out inform

Everything you ever wanted to know about Disney theme parks! Yeh, that's what we wanted to discuss, but unfortunately the constraints of time prohibited us from talking about ABSOLUTELY everything. Still, this turned out to be a very fun episode, all about our various experiences with the parks, and also(as always) some pretty cool trivia. Check out our meeting of the Mouse here. As stated, we actually ran short on time, so there were a few stories, such as D-Dub's abandoned Waterpark adventure that we were unable to get into. To find out the whole story, or just 'cause you'd like to talk to us, contact us at geeksexplainitall@gmail.com or feedback@geeksexplainitall.com Our subject next time around will be a discussion of music acts( and possibly others) that we haven't heard from in a while; Whatever happened to...? Til next time, remember, you better behave;don't make us turn this podcast around. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In the interst of equal time(and shutting Strat the hell up) we devote this show to a discussion of the silver age of comics; this time around we talk about DC comics(and truth be known, we throw in a little about Marvel, just for comparison's sake). Throw in a little feedback from Joe's Corner and you've got another great episode in the books. Check it out here. The article on DC vs Marvel that is discussed can be found here. As always, when giving feedback, (good, bad or otherwise), contact us at feedback@geeksexplainitall.com or geeksexplainitall@gmail.com. Tune in again next time when our topic will be a discussion of Disney Parks. That's right, Disney parks. Deal with it. Til next time kids, remember, there are 10 types of people in the world: those who understand Binary and those who don't. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
