Geek Syndicate

In light of our bout of drunkenness in last week's episode we decided to take a second look at 300 the day after we sorry. Don't worry as we cover all new (and coherent) stuff this time so hopefully shouldn't be a rehash of what you've already heard. We once again slam the never ending stream of wacky kid sidekicks.  We also look at the series finale of Stargate, some Doctor Who news and our trademark Geek Syndicate 'Smallville is Rubbish' policy is finally put to the test. Enjoy...

Here we are at last our 25th episode. Unlike Captain America’s 25th issue I doubt we’re going to hit the mainstream media. So how do celebrate this milestone? Why by recording possibly our worst episode yet. The fault of this can be laid at the feet of former friend to the show….whisky. So prepare to cringe as we stumble our way through The Dresden Files, The Helmet of Fate, Dr strange the oath. We then give our post pub ramblings on the new 300 movie. Oh and then there's the drunken singing, lots of drunken singing. You have been warned…

In this special episode of Comic Book Noise we were interviewed by it's host Derek Coward. The interview was done back in Feb and we know some of our forum members may have heard this but for all you others we thought you might like to hear it.....enjoy!!!Apologies to those who have already heard this.

Warning!!! This episode contains swearing from the outset and moderate violence(of the dry slap variety). This episode also has scenes of ranting on Stargate Sg1, the initiative and Harry Potter. There are also reviews of the Lost Room and The Prestige as well as a new feature �Comics for Beginners�. And find out what it takes to be a Patrioteer!

Another Monday, another episode. In this week's adventure through geekdom we discuss further Indy 4 revelations,Doctor Who auction and Shazam the movie. We also uncover the beginnings of a world wide conspiracy,find a hidden watchmen treat and discuss the big big news event that hit the comics world this week. We also find a new job for resident non geek Amaechi.Our special feature focuses on some of our fave spaceships from tv,cartoons and movies.Warning this episode contains MAJOR spoliers for Captain America 25,The Mighty Avengers 1 and Civil War: The Initiative 1...you have been warned but still enjoy!!!!

Thanks to the travesty that was Civil War Frontline 11 the Dark Syndicate make an unwelcome return. Despair as they rant on just about everything including, the proposed new Star Trek movie, A new hairstyle to rival Tom Hanks' Da Vinci code wig of doom, Lost and an new mind control device masquerading as a gaming accessory(no we're not kidding). None of this compares to what lay in wait for the civil war frontline issue.

Well everyone another week draws to a close and we see you out in fine style with part two of our listener of the month, Eric. We finish off with a discussion of some of our favourite villains (we missed Khan dammit!...how did we miss Khan?)...enjoy and stayed tuned for some behind the scenes extra stuff at the end.
