Geek Watch One

  Our February Meeplecast is all about a dysfunctional super family known as The Umbrella Academy. We discuss season 1 of the new Netflix series, what we loved about it, what surprised us and what was changed from the comics. Plus, we have some interesting geek news involving copyrights, cancellations, renewals, childhood horrors and spies.  […]

  It’s our annual Oddmall: Expedition Elsewhere edition and you know what that means – hearing how tired we are because we’re recording first thing in the morning! But we still manage to get through some geeky news from the week and quick, non-spoilery thoughts about the new release Alita: Battle Angel and two new […]

  We’re enjoying what is likely our last week of down time before getting truly busy for the year. Case in point: there’s an Oddmall coming up this weekend! There was a lot of news that dropped over the past week, including series, movie and book news from Marvel, Disney, FX, Amazon and more. Plus, […]

  It’s that time of year when networks start talking renewals. So this week we have the beginnings, with the first announcements coming from the CW. Plus, some DC movie release dates were announced, along with a couple of show announcements for streaming services. And there’s Disney Parks and Star Wars news too. Seriously… it […]

  Geek Watch One is four years old! Yeah, we have no idea how that happened either, but it’s time to celebrate at The Malted Meeple. And they gave us a surprise – we got to go through one of their new escape rooms! We have some details (without giving away any secrets), including the fact […]

  This week we look into Glass, the final installment of the Unbreakable trilogy, and discuss whether it’s half empty or half full. We also talk about some movie news, including details on two new Mission Impossible movies and trailers for John Wick and Spider-Man. And, of course, we share what we’re up to, plus […]

  It’s one of those weeks when there wasn’t anything big going on, so we’re talking a lot of news from the geek world and a little about some of the TV shows that we’re into. Plus there are lots of events going on over the next few weeks, from the Hoopla at the Outpost […]

  Now that we’ve recovered from the holidays, we’re enjoying some down time before everything ramps up for the year again. We have details on some upcoming events, like the Hoopla at the Outpost and our 4th birthday. Plus there’s some interesting news to share. But our focus this time around is on the movies […]

  Over the holidays, a lot of movies hit theaters – and we saw most of them! So this week we’re talking Mortal Engines, Mary Poppins Returns, Bumblebee and Aquaman, plus the newest Netflix release Bandersnatch. There’s a bit of news to share too, including a little something about puppets and a dance moves lawsuit.  […]

  There was a lot going on last week, with news, movies and tv shows. For comic show geeks, there was the yearly CW crossover, this time with Arrow, Flash and Supergirl meeting Batgirl in an Elseworlds story. And the new animated Spider-Man movie premiered, plus there was an early screening of Aquaman and the […]

  This week it’s a short episode recorded at Oddmall: Chrishanukwanzmadan. We have some cool geek stuff to share, plus a few of the usual interruptions by friends wandering around Oddmall. And for those who are unfamiliar, we have some of the history of Krampus along with some angry black men.    What we’re up […]

  It’s that time of year, when holiday specials are on TV every night of the week – obviously it’s the perfect time to talk about them! We discuss the best and worst from the classics to the current, with perhaps a few unexpected mentions along the way. But before that, we have our usual […]

  On our November Meeplecast, we talk not only the new Robin Hood movie, but all things Hood! With more than 60 movies, dozens of tv appearances, games and comics there’s a lot of Robin Hood to talk about. And there’s a new Christmas movie to enjoy on Netflix this year, plus what’s up with […]

  We lost a pop culture legend last week with the death of Stan Lee, so, of course, we need to pay tribute. We talk about why we loved him and what he did not only for Marvel and comics, but for pop culture in general. But we start out with a look at what […]

  Recorded live at Con on the Cob, this week we’re joined by Mark and Jim from The Tangent-Bound Network. Not surprisingly, things get out of hand quickly (Miss Dawn isn’t around to keep things under control). Though there’s an attempt to evolve from Boones to Alize, things ultimately devolve to Mad Dog… with Ken’s […]

  It’s about time we talk about season 3 of Daredevil! Is it the best season yet? What works and what doesn’t? Is Kingpin really all that? We have all the details and some Easter eggs you might not have spotted. Plus, we have a review of Bohemian Rhapsody, thoughts on The Meg and some […]

  It’s Halloween! What better time to talk ghosts and hauntings and all things paranormal?!

Plus there’s some interesting news from the world of geek, including newly named constellations and a legit silly walks […]

  This week we were on location once again, this time in Toledo for Oddmall: Hallowondrous. After some random rambling about roads and weather in Ohio, we chat some of the fun from day one of Oddmall and share details on the (quickly) approaching Con on the Cob. Then we get into some of the […]

  This week we had some fun recording at Cleveland Comic Con. We have a quick chat about the upcoming Oddmall Hallowondrous and Con on the Cob, plus New York Comic Con (happening at the same time). Then we get into some geek news (and a little rant from Miss Dawn) and finish up with […]
