Episode 4 – Fuck You House

We were lucky enough to score an interview with Rebecca Watson, founder of Skepchick.org while she was at CONvergence 2012.  We avoided talking about mysogyny on the internet (for the most part) and instead we talked about video games and other geeky obsessions.  There is a considerable amount of conversation about Fat Apollo because how […]

Bonus Logos!

We’re pretty excited that we have someone who enjoys our podcast so much, she decided to design a bunch of logos for us.  We already have one great logo but we’re greedy!  We’ll take more!  We want all the logos the Internet has to offer! Do you hear us, Internet???? Do it now! Who is […]

Geek First, Girl Second.

I sure am tired of hearing about whether or not chicks get to be hot, geeky, and in costume. I mean, really tired of it. I’m tired of all sides of this argument. But fuck it, let’s dive in to the fray. So Joe Peacock wrote an article on CNN.com entitled “Booth Babes Need Not […]

Episode 3 – I’m Batman

Episode 3 was recorded prior the to release of The Dark Knight Rises and we decided to ask the question “is Batman an atheist?”  We explore all the evidence that we can remember (and we get some of it wrong) and talk about comic book characters that we know are atheists.  Nick reveals an extensive comic […]

Episode 2 – It’s the Hat

Our second episode was also recorded in front of a live audience at CONvergence 2012.  Our guest was Kammy Lyon from Skepchick.org.  She was super nervous about recording in front of real people but she did a great job.  We talked  about SkepchicCON, the party that Skepchick.org hosts at the Convention as well as giving […]

Sharing the Love

Well, it’s been a fun first week here at Geeks Without God.  We’re very pleased at the number of people who have given our little project a try and we hope you come back and tell your friends about us.  We want to give a shout out to some folks who mentioned us this week. […]

Episode 1 – Prometheus

Welcome to Geeks Without God!  Our first episode was recorded at CONvergence 2012 in front of a live audience.    Our first guest was Melissa Kaercher, who managed to sit on more panels than anyone at CONvergence ever has before.  We figure that had more than a little to do with why she said “yes” […]

Why I’m a Geek – Tim

I have this theory about geekdom.  I’ll get to it in a minute. Star Wars came out in 1977.  At the time, I was ten years old and the movie was just fucking Star Wars.  Episode IV?  Please!  As far as we knew, that was all the Star Wars we would ever get. When I first saw the trailer […]

Why I’m A Geek – Molly

I couldn’t have decided to be a geek any more than I could have decided to be a white girl born in Minnesota. I came this way. One of the first presents I can remember wanting is a microscope. I got one when I was 9, and I played with it constantly. I looked at […]

Why I’m an Atheist – Nick

My earliest memories of religion involve being a brat during Sunday School , which was led by my grandmother or (now atheist) mother, or getting dragged out to rural Minnesota to go listen to my grandfather deliver his lengthy Easter sermon.
