Welcome to the All-New Geek Actually Podcast
This week we fly without a net and didn’t prepare any show notes. We did manage to find a lot to talk about, including the cancellations of Tron 3 and Stephen King’s It, The Luke Skywalker Hot Toy, George R.R. Martin, Agent Carter, Independence Day 2 casting and Batman’s cameo in Suicide Squad. All that and we still managed to review Tomorrowland. This is the All-New Geek Actually Podcast, the podcast about nothing and everything filtered through the geek perspective.
Hosted by: David McVay and Dave Longo with guest Richard Gray
As always this episode carries an explicit tag due to possible bad language.
