We're back for the new year! It's good times, right? So, apologies that this episode was late...sometimes schedules slip. Maybe we're being controlled by an outside force like in Black Mirror's Bandersnatch. Or maybe we've just been floating around the internet like Mary Poppins. Who knows? What even is this bit? Nerdy stuff came up, conversation was fun, check it out!
Wow it's the end of the year. It's been a long one for sure, and we wanted to send out the end of the year with our annual celebratory Q & A!

Then some Game Awards, Overwatch, and Capcom? Then loads more!
Hey we saw Star Wars: The Last Jedi and we felt compelled to give you our thoughts! We start the show spoiler free, and then give you a warning when the spoilers start. It's off the cuff and a first take of sorts, but a fun bonus episode to tide you all over!

Splatoon 2 got a big update, which somehow turned into microtransaction talk. Then we talked about Jude Law being in Captain Marvel, and the end of the Universal Dark Universe...which somehow turned into Hollow Man. This episode was a ride, but hey, isn't that always the case?
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We got into a decent bit, starting with fighting game news, Game Awards nominees, and an upcoming Mario movie. Then we talked about Justice League, the recent Steven Universe episodes, and other upcoming movie news. And we finished up with a revamped final section, focusing more on recommendations than capitalism.

Check it out, gang! To very minimal fanfare, it's our one year anniversary! We celebrated by doing a regular episode and covering the nerdy. We got gaming news, Deadpool cartoon, Sleepy Hollow got canned, and new games. Then, we dive into last week's Steven Universe episodes. It was a full week, and we spoil the whole thing. If you want to avoid them, skip to at 59:35. And as always, it's a great one.
Yeah we earned the explicit tag this week! So we got into some real world issues like politics and Nicki Minaj. We quickly went into understanding the marketing behind Wonder Woman, Star Wars Day, and Free Comic Book Day. Then, because we love Marvel too, we raised concerns about the Inhumans, the Defenders, and got weird about Guardians of the Galaxy 2. We promise we're adults.
So, we kind of started with conversation about roaches, for some reason? So, content warning on that if that suits you. But, we're nerds, so of course we got into some minor Bill Nye chat and other internet jazz. Then we pretty much shot the breeze about Marvel's newest nonsense. But then we talk about Steven Universe fora bit. We were all over the place, but it was fun.
We're back from our little convention break with the weekly updates! Tekko was a great convention, but we still found time to catch the Star Wars and Thor trailers! Additionally, we get hype about Carmen Sandiego, Cable and Deadpool, and wonder what's going on in Dumbledore's head.

We're settling back into the normalcy of regular, non-holiday episodes. Although it was a fairly quiet week, we still had some things to chat about. We mourned a bit for the last gasps of 2016, Fancon and other conventions, Pittsburgh sports, Hidden Figures, and just some weird things in the nerdy space. Pony Island and Ariana Grande are mentioned in the same episode, and I'm not sure that's ever happened.
It's our holiday episode to end the year right! We're following in the risky tradition of having some drinks with our podcast, as a hopeful treat to the listeners. As well, we answered a bunch of fan questions that went in a bunch of different directions. Tons of Overwatch chat, Pokemon, Sports, Sex, what more could a geek want? Huge thanks to everyone who sent in questions, and we hope to do this more often.
Okay, everyone! We're back from some of the weirdness we had going on, but we're strong as ever!

We're back and talking with Conrad Zimmerman, of the internet and video games! We went over so many things: There was movies and storytelling, then storytelling in games, a shift gears to underrated shows, aspirations and life paths. We also talked about what not to do at energy plants, copyright struggles and optimism.
Also, we mention some election stuff as this was recorded weeks ago. It's around 56 minutes if you're burnt out from all that and lasts about 3-4 minutes.
As well, we talk about some alcholism towards the end, but follow it with a related story to take the edge off.
Definitely explicit language in this one. Last week was a hard one and we needed to vent some. Of course we discuss the election, so if that's been too stressful for you, please skip most of the first segment (go to about 14:50)
But other than that! We talk about SNL, have some long anime talks, talk about Pacific Rim, and the Hamilton Mixtape. We managed to pull some fun into this one, and there's great music as always!
Aw yeah, we're back from vacation. Recorded this past Sunday. We definitely had a good time, laughed and joked, and got a bit...ridiculous and personal. But, DC Movies seem to be getting out of their slump, comics are still weird, Dom's Phone Saga seems to be coming to an end, and representation is staying strong. Good news, right?

What more could you want?
It's our first real episode of Geekly Reveal! It's an addition to what Character Reveal already is, to give you all something a bit general to catch up on things that may or may not be outside of your own wheelhouse.

Also, we had some annoying technical issues, but we kept the interesting parts of them. Check it out!
We caught up with our friend Robby, an indie game developer and generally cool guy. We talked about the game of course, and reminisced about old shows, talked about the benefits of working from home, and laughed about different things.
We talked about all kinds of things with Kahlief Adams of Spawn On Me. Of course we got into video games and podcasting, but also tree jokes, meeting your heroes, racist candy and all kinds of laughs. Definitely not one to miss!
So we talked about a lot of comics and culture with the Chico Leo. Explicit language for sure, but a lot of laughs, movies, and general nerdery. Check it out!
We got a chance to talk with Austin Carter, one of the artists from the Artist Alley at Colossalcon 2016! Been saving this one for a rainy day and as a live/on-the-road episode, please excuse out sound issues. (It was tough to find a room in a busy convention hall) He does art and fashion and it's pretty cool.
We spoke to our buddy Zora about comics, queer identity, and queer comic! We got some Pittsburgh stuff, video games, publishing, and had a great questions round! It was a fun and long episode - lots to say!
Steph and Dom have had some stressful weeks and needed some time to catch up. As well, we wanted to update you all with what is happening on the show and what is in the pipeline! As well, we discuss the previous week's rough spots and some comments on that. It's a quicker one than normal, but still should be a nice listen.
We talked with The Auracle, aka Bae Grylls, aka Joseph about many things. He's a Renaissance man of sorts, and we spoke about activism, masculinity, sports, Star Wars, graphic novels, and more of our typical nerdy stylings. He's our first guest from the other side of the pond, and we got into a lot! Explicit language warning, but it was a good time.
We talked with our good friend Evin about LARPing, cosplay, conventions, and just got a bit goofy! He's a cool guy that we've known for a bit, so it was a good ol' catch up fest. Explicit language and some mention of alcohol, but it's all in good fun.
We talked with Pam of Media Mavens about games and pop culture! It's kind of our thing, yeah? Meanwhile, Dom's microphone picked up a thunderstorm, so please enjoy the ambient tones of that. We also talk about YouTube and make some Hot Takes on pop culture. Fun for everyone.
We sat down with Ken Gagne and talked about so much! Chatted about sci-fi, pop culture, video games, journalism, multiple sclerosis, Apple 2, and much more? What more could you want? Well, it's probably in there!
(CW: Small bit about the tragedy in Orlando at the beginning, if this isn't something that interests you, please skip to 2:15)
We sat down and talked with Sabriel Mastin, a freelance writer and games critic! Of course, we talked about those things, plus panels, representation, and of course our lovely rapid fire round.
We got a chance to talk to another local Pittsburgher, Tom Higgs of Cosplay Kitchen, about cosplay, cosplay, and more cosplay! Also, we talked about other nerdy stuff and our weird city.
Our second episode, and the last one with audio issues! Still, we have a good conversation with our friend Autumn about college and Pittsburgh and the things you know we love.
