Episode 141 - Don’t Poop on the Tour Bus

Welcome to Episode 141 of Broadcast Geeks! On this podcast we discuss all things geek and nerd related, provided our DVR’s have space and our Netflix accounts are our own and none others.  This week, ALL of the Geeks (Jeff, Jake, Mitch, Nate and Matt Orrin) are joined by Jeremy Pysher and are in the Quantum Realm, located below Mutiny Information Cafe, for another packed episode of geeky goodness.  

 

Another episode and we are still talking Titans! We see the history of Hank and Dawn as they share a tragedy.  We see a lot more than that, in fact...its more like Hank and Dong!  This was a real dark episode, showing Hank take one for the team to protect his younger brother Donny from a preying, pedophile Gym Teacher.  This could help explain some of Hank's aggression.  The episode ends with Rachel calling out to them from inside their dreams.  We know Trigon is coming.  What does this spell for our heroes?

Speaking of heroes, James Gunn is producing a new film that looks like a horror version of the Superman origin.  This seems very exciting for some of us.  We talked about different kinds of superhero films, such as Super (directed by James Gunn) with Rainn Wilson.  I guess Gunn is into the darker side of superpowers.   

Idols.  Do you have one?  We talked about some of ours and how we acted when we met them.  Sometimes, you lose control of things when you meet them.  For example, Jeff stiff armed Nickelback singer, Chad Kroeger, when he met Sammy Hagar.  It's probably ok, since it is Nickelback.  Pysher told us about how he met Macauly Culkin, which must have been an interesting meeting. 

We talk a little bit of Kevin Bacon, and some of his better films.  Honestly, they are all pretty good.  How many degrees of Kevin Bacon do you have?  Jeff talked about how there was nothing to do in his hometown except go to see the movie She's Having a Baby.  That was the only film in town for middle schoolers.   

Finally, we talked Elseworlds...how could we not??  The CW is establishing themselves as WAY better than DC films when it comes to delivering what we want to see.  Our favorite DC heroes encounter, and enlist, Batwoman and Superman in their quest to stop Dr. John Deegan from changing reality and becoming a god.  But a more serious threat, or Crisis, is imminent.  We talked about how DC TV is matching Marvel with their output, obviously not on a grand scale, and making fans real happy.  However, Mitch has problems with some of their animation.  Listen to find out which ones the mild, mannered, Geek can't stand.
