http://geekactually.com Podcasts about Film, Tech and Geeky stuff Thu, 29 Jul 2010 03:57:43 +0000 en-au hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 Let's get together and geek out! Movie and TV industry analysis, news, reviews and opinion from the geek's perspective. Join David and his co-hosts Josh and Dave as we sit and gab about our great geek passions: movies, TV and the entertainment industry in general. As film geeks, we love our subject and talk passionately about our stuff. Come and have some fun and join us every weekend. Just a warning though, because we speak candidly about our topics (and love to laugh), we approach film reviewing from a "real" point of view, this podcast has to carry an "explicit tag" for bad language. Back episodes and the live feed can be found at our website, geekactually.com. If you are a gamer, make sure you also check out Dave and Josh on their dedicated gamer's show, 'Platforms'.
