Geek 2 Watch: Mikey Mason

               Mikey Mason is a comedian/musician who is also an unapologetic fanboy. He peppers his songs with references to all things geeky. Warcraft, Firefly, TRON, D & D, the Saturday Morning Cartoons of yore. Pretty much the entirety of our youth, provided you grew up in the '80s and early '90s.

    

          Goddamn, but I pity the youth of today! If you want to laugh and reminisce and curse the fateful day when you realized Saturday Mornings weren't Saturday Mornings any more, listen and love Mikey Mason!!

Suggested Tracks:

"My Next Girlfriend"




"She Don't Like Firefly"




"Summer of '83"

Authentic Geek, The PODCAST -- Episode 10 - "The Heart Wants What The Heart Wants"


Episode 10 - "The Heart Wants What The Heart Wants"

(Click the above link to download the episode or click HERE to stream it)

         Hey, it's a new episode!! About damn time, right?! Anyway, the Big G is not around this episode. So, JT called upon the help of one of his podcasting friends, TV's Mr. Neil of the Animation Aficionados podcast!! YAYS!!! Together, the Geek and the Aficionado discuss that which is surely one of the greatest of all guilty pleasures, the bad movie, bad acting and all! 

         Some of the greats and not-so greats are mentioned. "Street Fighter", "Kull the Conqueror", "Jason X" and more are discussed, ridiculed & glorified. So, pop that corn, pour the soda and get comfortable. It's time for the marathon to start!

POINT OF ORDER: Neil mentioned after the recording that we forgot to discuss the most infamous of all bad movies, "The Room". TV's Mr. Neil has seen this. JT has not. And having never seen it, JT is hesitant to discuss Tommy Wiseau's work. It's probably better that way.

          And if we missed any bad movies that you would have liked for us to discuss, let us know in the comments or an email! Because we all know that one of the most telling traits of a bad movie is the inevitable sequels, right?! *hint-hint, nudge nudge*
