Hosts: David McVay, Josh Philpott and Dave Kozicki
The Geek Actually Podcast is recorded live on Ustream with chat interaction.
After a rough start with Ustream not allowing us to stream at our start time, we finally got underway an hour late! Dave Kozicki got mugged last night so he was a little shaken and Josh, well let’s just say Josh has felt better. Anyway, this week’s show is dedicated to the fine group of guys over at the Reel Junkies podcast which you can find on iTunes or at weekendronin.com. Check out their film podcast, I (David McVay) listen to it every week and they always entertain.
Game News This Week: Gwen Steffani and No Doubt sue Activision and should Australia follow England and open Game Addiction rehab centres? We have a few words to say about that.
Tech News This Week: Bluebeat tries to sell Beatles music online and is issued a cease and desist letter, AT&T sues Verizon for telling the truth in advertising, Second Life is starting a business edition..
Entertainment News This Week: Joss Whedon offers $10000 for Terminator rights and we discuss the new ‘Prince of Persia’ trailer.
Our Feature Review: We review the new Zombie comedy ‘Zombieland’ but it felt important to also retro review ‘Shaun of the Dead’ as ‘Zombieland’ is being called the American Shaun. ‘Zombieland’ is great fun and well worth the look and if you have not seen ‘Shaun of the dead’, what the hell are you waiting for?
This episode carries an explicit tag due to infrequent coarse language.
