August 13th - Episode 2 - Don’t Take Our Popcorn
In this episode I am joined in the studio by, writer/actress/creative coach/ex- actor’s agent, Mirren Lee. She shares her love of celebrity gossip and television with us. We also discuss the move by a British cinema chain to ban popcorn!
I review the films “Wanted”, “X-Files: I Want to Believe” and “Pineapple Express”. I also discuss the rise of Apple hackers.
Little Geek and I discuss “The Spiderwick Chronicals” and “The Princess Bride”. I also give a review of the new DVD release of “I know Who Killed Me” - Major spoiler alert, Mirren gives the end away so beware (this film is so bad, you are not really missing anything).

August 20th - Episode 3 - The Two Hour Super Sized Episode!!!
In this super sized 2 hour episode I am joined by Jacob Oberman (independent Producer - Palais Pictures) and Mirren Lee (writer/actress/creative coach/ex- actor’s agent). Jacob and I discuss the Apple Fire, iPhone 3G problems and The Gloriously Wonderful Bad List.
We also review “Tropic Thunder”, “Taken” and “In Bruges” (it’s in Belgium).
We are joined by Mirren via Skype (poor thing is in her sick bed). She shares all sorts of delirious weirdness with us, including Madonna’s birthday present and Julia Robert’s underarm hair! - I did tell you she was sick, right?
This all adds up to one big show full of geeky goodness.
Little Geek is still sick and does not appear in this weeks show, he’ll be back next week with a review of Star Wars Clone Wars.
