Episode 93: Into the Badlands & Mr. Osomatsu

Here at the Geekdown, we consume a lot of media. Sometimes, we really like what we've consumed, and would love to spend more time with it, but that content train never stops, and each week brings something new to check out. 

Because of that, sometimes we like to take a breath, step out of format, and revisit some of those things we liked, to see if they still hold up to our initial impressions. This is one of those weeks.

Also this ep!  Caitlin recovers, Jordan has many decisions to make, all the updates and good time hangs with your new BFFs in the typical Geekdown fashion.

Episode 94: Catch-Up 2017

So Jordan got a PS4, which means nothing to most of you who consider yourselves gamers, but is a serious deal for him. He is filled with joy, and he chooses to share that joy with Cait and y'all. 

So there's a lot of video game talk and chit chat, but we also talk about the week in milkshake ducks (1:04:20), the death of Univeral's Dark Universe (1:11:07), and the return of Black Mirror (1:13:33) before settling into a conversation about the new Netflix Western 'Godless' (1:26:24). Did it meet Caitlin's approval? Answers await.

Episode 95: Gaming and Godless

Getting downright witchy on the pod this week as we look at the all ages gem from Studio Trigger, 'Little Witch Academia,' and the 1980s sexual farce from the director of Mad Max,  "The Witches of Eastwick." How was that? Answers await.

ALSO! The curious case of Akira Yoshida, Avengers trailer talk, Cait's astronomy minute, updates to what we've watched and 90% less video game talk.

Episode 97: Recovery of an MMO Junkie and Chicago

The year was a hot pile of grrrrrrrbge, but there were still some things worth celebrating, so that's what we're doing. Jord and Cait pick the three things they loved best from the past twelve months of podcasting, the one single topic champion, and the one that boofed the hardest.

Also! Chitchat and the usual hangs. It was a holiday ep, what do you want.

Next up? Geekdown 100.

Episode 99: The 2017 Lookback

PUT THE CHAMPAGNE DOWN. THIS IS NOT EPISODE 100 OF THE GEEKDOWN.

Due to a combination of illness and frigid weather, Jord and Cait were not able to meet in person this week, so they put the actual Geekdown100 on hold, which is really the most Geekdown thing they could have done. Instead, we give you a standard in-format ep, kicking off hashtag-comf-season with the BBC's adaptation of the Father Brown Mysteries by GK Chesterton, and Amazon's dramatic comedy 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,' fresh from its anointing at this week's Golden Globes.

Also loads of chit chat, updates on what we've been watching and playing, and a long overdue implementation of a policy regarding dick towels.

Episode 99 3/8: Re-chain of Sleep Birth -- Prelude Remix

As promised on last week's show, as an apology for not delivering Geekdown100 in a timely fashion, here's the first of the bonus episodes, recorded last year and originally only available to show Patrons. Cait gives Jordan some backgrounding on Dungeons and Dragons, and prepares him for the quest ahead.

Thank for your patience friends, we appreciate it. If this chicanery strikes you as something you'd like more of, you can discover how to get it over at the Patreon page: patreon.com/geekdownpod

Geekdown Apology Bonus Episode!

CONTINUE TO PUT THE CHAPMAGNE DOWN. THIS IS STILL NOT GEEKDOWN 100.

But your new BFFs are reunited around the table, which isn't Skype, so y'know, baby steps.

In keeping with Geekdown tradition, we look at a pair of things that could not be more dissimilar, the recent Netflix live-action adaptation of the acclaimed manga "Erased," and the Marilyn Monroe classic, "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes." We've also got lots of chit-chat, both inane and important, drop a news story or two, and share what we've been checking out including more Father Brown, returning favourites like Star Trek Discovery and The Good Place, and Jordan's poor time management in Persona 5.

Episode 99: Turbo Championship Edition

WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE AUDIO QUALITY. 😓

After many false starts, Episode 100 of The Geekdown is here! Jord and Cait pop a bottle, talk about what the show's meant to them and tackle a few philosophical conundrums on matters great and irrelevant while trying the whole time to avoid slipping into 'vlogger voice.' 

Thank you so much to everyone who's listened to the show, tweeted, emailed, commented, stopped us on the street, or just acknowledged us. We are small, yet we are mighty, and we are proud of what we've built, and remain floored that people enjoy it. We hope you ride with us for the next 100.

Episode 107: Chihayafuru - Kimi no Ku

The staple of anyone's television diet, the comfy blanket guiding you through the hours between school and dinnertime or the reward after finishing your homework, it's the network sitcom! And we are not immune to their charms, so this week Cait and Jord look at two of the better examples airing today, Superstore and Fresh Off the Boat. 

Also this ep!  An update to Jordan's rant from last week, Caitlin is enchanted by the theatre of the squared circle again and updates on what we've been checking out, including Horizon Zero Dawn and more Jessica Jones talk.

Episode 114: Mad Max Fury Road and Megalo Box

Jordan likes superheroes and giant robots. Caitlin likes tabletop games and Dr. Who.

Once a week they sit in front of microphones and try to bridge that that gap.
