First off, we were joined by Luke, aka Sean's second son and Connor's younger brother. He was in for Connor's wedding so popped on to join us!

The Geek Question of the Week was pretty simple and straightforward: If you could design a theme park on your favorite fandom, what it be and what would some of the rides be? The fandoms chosen were not surprising. At all. LOLIn our Roll for Credits segment, we take a look at the 2014 German Hacker Thriller, Who Am I! Forget that it is German language only with subtitles.

So much fun, so many people, so many friends, with a few disappointments!The Geek Question of the Week was pretty simple and straightforward: If you could invite any three fictional characters to your bachelor party, who would they be and why?

The Geek Question of the Week was pretty simple and straightforward: Name some fictional characters you would like to get caught in a one-on-one hunt with, and who would win? We kind of went back on forth on this one but came up with a few good ones! In our Roll for Credits segment, we take a look at the 2022 prequel to the classic 80's action flick, Predator, Prey! We also spent a good amount of time talking about Arnie and the classic as well, if for no other reason than as a contrast to this fantastic movie!Somehow, we talk about Sean's master's and doctoral research...

The Geek Question of the Week was pretty simple and straightforward: Do you believe in the supernatural? Ok, well, that was pretty broad. See where we go with it. In our Roll for Credits segment, we take a look at the 2020 fantasy adventure movie straight outta China... Monster Run.

The Geek Question of the Week: If you could ‘TRON’ your way into any game you’ve ever played, what would it be, what would you want to accomplish, and why? It's amazing how much we overlap. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree! In our Roll for Credits segment, we look at the female badass spy-driven action flick from earlier in the year, The 355.

Live from the surface of the sun, aka the attack studio with a crapped-out AC, it's Episoder74! The Geek Question of the Week: If there was a theme park based on you and your life, what would be the gimmick, the mascot, and some of the main rides or attractions of your park? Not sure where we went with this, but Sean at least ended up down memory lane of serious injuries, band trips, and "Rick, you mean that's it?" In our Roll for Credits segment, we watch an alcoholic, divorced, stressed out father decompensate as he tries to solve a series of murders and figure out whether the culprit is a serial killer... or a werewolf... in the 2020 flick, The Wolf of Snow Hollow. Um, yeah. And as always, geekery, video games, and chickens.

The Geek Question of the Week took a more serious turn this week: In engineering and scientific research, which do you think should be a first priority: military application or civilian comfort? A decidedly more in-depth conversation happened, though we did manage to get in references to Terminator, Matrix, and Wall-E...LOL In our Roll for Credits segment, we get in touch with our anger in the 2003 Adam Sandler/Jack Nicholson comedy, Anger Management.

We're back after a six-month hiatus! New job, new life, new studio, new music, same two buffoons! Sorry for the mic issues but we're still figuring out the new layout and sound scheme! And we realize... we're still clueless about what we're doing!
The Geek Question of the Week is: Would you rather have to fight a chicken every time you get in a car, or a lion once a year? Don't ask me - it was Connor's idea. And he's dead wrong. In our Roll for Credits segment, we revisit the first movie we ever talked about way back in Episode 1 - the 2004 Turkish sci-fi parody, G.O.R.A. Still bad, still awesome, still weird!

The Geek Question of the Week is: Between animated and live-action, which do you think is the better medium for superhero content? Pretty good discussion, I think, and we landed on opposite sides of the debate. What's new, right?In our Roll for Credits segment, we rave over the 2007 crime thriller starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe, American Gangster! Wow, what a good movie with an amazing cast! Though it definitely takes creative license with the story, it is based on the true story of Frank Lucas and Richie Roberts and heroin and organized crime in Harlem.
