Geek Syndicate

After a short break whilst Scott moved house the grouchy old geeks are back to go over some of the latest news and their voyages through geekdom.  Covered in this episode (amongst other things) are:  Creed 2, Star Trek vs Orville, Jerusalem by Alan Moore, a Joker movie and the new generation of audiobooks.

Finally unlike Bad Boys 3 (gutted they're not doing another one) the Bad boys of geekdom - Monts and Nuge are back. No real main topic just a lot of catching up on what they've been reading and watching. All I'll say is there are spoliers for Iron Fist but other than that it's all good.  Other stuff discussed include The Expanse,Faith,Velvet,The Defenders (no spoliers) and more.   Enjoy!

This is Bags of Action. The podcast devoted to  action movies, both old and new, but all of them are awesome! In this episode Steve and Pete are joined by semi-regular co-host Barry Nugent from Geek Syndicate. This episode we are talking about the 1995 film Bad Boys starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. 22 years on from when the film came out, how does it hold up? This was in the early days of Michael Bay when he was on a high, but is it as good as we remember?

This month Steve and Scott are celebrating their 10 years of podcasting. Ten years ago, in a galaxy far far away, Comic Book Outsiders was born, where Steve and Scott met and recorded their first ever episode. Over time the show has transformed, been rebooted, and even been renamed, but it's still us, talking Geeky nonsense on the internet. This episode we start with some news and reviews and then for our main feature, we take a look back at where the media was 10 years ago, and made our predictions for where we think geek culture, media, and pop culture entertainment will be in 10 more years time. Send in your ideas too for the future of geekdom! To talk about this episode and any other episode you can visit the Grouchy Old Geeks Facebook Group.

Matt and Kehaar are joined by a very professional podcaster Roifeld Brown to discuss imaginary maps although it’s fair to say we wander off the beaten track a fair bit. We cover a lot of ground, including * childhood imaginary worlds * the joy of maps * Sim City and its successors * the mysteries of Marvel geography * the greater mysteries of marvel comic marketing * warning may contain cricket (and subbuteo) * the thrills and despair of town planning   It was very interesting to have a chat with someone outside the nerd sphere - we hope you enjoy it too.

Scott and Steve catch up with their exercise regimes then talk about some of the latest sci-fi news, including a claim from Scott that could end up bringing the podcast to an early close.  After that the grouchy old geeks go all Room 101 and decide which shows it's time to consign to history and cancel from ever making a new episode.
