Episode 19-Reviewing Solo, Deadpool and Avengers Infinity War

Hey internet!

Geek of the week is back with our 1st episode of season 3!! It’s been awhile but we are gonna start talking about the recent summer movies such as Solo, Deadpool and the Mega hit Avengers Infinity War !!!

It’s a full house today, as Beau, Mike, Pete, and new to the Podcast yet another Mike talk about all the recent Blockbusters that have just recently come out. They are gonna talk about all the important topics….. Such as:

  • Was Solo: A Star Wars Story a good movie, why did it do so poorly, was it even necessary?
  • Is Chewbacca’s nickname a play on his past as a forced cannibal?
  • Deadpool 2 compared to the first Deadpool.
  • Why don’t the heroes of the Marvel Universe just do what Cap tells them to do?
  • Once again we will compare the success of the MCU to the lackluster DCEU and how we wish the DCEU was better!!
  • and should Thanos have a mustache?

We are good and ready to go with this new season and may actually live up to the whole “Week” part in Geek of The Week as we are now switching to a new weekly format.

Episode 17- Cartoon talk with Gina Ippolito!!

Hey internet!

Geek of the week is back with a vengeance, and without further ado, we’re joined by Comedian, writer, director and actress Gina Ippolito!

Gina is a writer on the regular Show, which just wrapped up its eighth and final season. She’s worked on  a few other shows like The Powerpuff Girls reboot. People who are familiar with the interwebs may have seen her on as well as a member of the Screen Junkies Crew, duking it out on MovieFights, and a writer on Honest Trailers, as well as tons and tons and tons of podcasts.

It’s a full house today, as Beau, Mike, Pete, and Gina talk about Saturday Morning (the cartoon part, not the afternoon basketball part). They ponder such things as:

  • Who the Hell are Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, and why should we care about his magic root?
  • All those times Van Damme accidentally kicked people in the head.
  • Thuuundarrr The Barbarian!! vs. Hurculoids!
  • Has Gummy Berry Juice contributed to the steroid abuse scandals in professional sports?
  • Why do all the ladies (and Donatello) get stuck with the bow staffs?
  • and remember the SecTaurs??

Oh, and Sorry about the delays – Fill in the blanks with this one: (technical difficulties, Jobs, the environment, -can we use the upcoming robopocalypse ?). We’re back on regular schedule with a host of new episodes and a bunch of special guests!

You can find Gina at @GinaIppy on twitter and on her knowing is half the podcast on facebook and Itunes. The Regular Show’s all wrapped up, but you can check out  episodes on Cartoon Network!
