Episode 182 – 2015 Wrapup

This week, we take a look at the past year.  We talk a bit about the geeky stuff we loved as well as some milestones in our lives.  We also talk about stuff we are looking forward to in 2016.  Thanks for listening to us babble on about geek stuff and godless stuff.  We look […]

Episode 181 – A Star Wars Christmas

You may have heard about a big geek movie that was released this week.  And no, we aren’t talking about Chipwrecked. You might as well know now that we spoil the ever loving hell out of The Force Awakens.  We’ve warned you here and we’ll warn you again at the beginning of the podcast.  Then […]

Episode 180 – Cult Living

This week, we sit down with our friend Kyle Dekker to discuss his experiences growing up in some creepy cult-like churches. Among other things, he was a Branch Davidian!  He even learned how to pretend to speak in tongues.  These days he’s managed to break free from that craziness and he makes internet videos like […]

Episode 179 – Terrorism

Note: This episode was recorded prior to the attack in San Bernadino, California last week. This week, the three of us sit down and talk domestic and international terrorism.  We talk about racism and how we have difficulty identifying white people as terrorists.  We also look at the question of whether or not some actions […]

Episode 178 – Women in STEM Fields

We were once again recording at Omegacon for this week’s episode!  Our guest was our friend Ellie Younger, who is an Engineer.  We talked with her about being a woman in a field traditionally dominated by men and we heard a few of many depressing stories about the obstacles in her path.  We also talked […]

Episode 177 – Disney Boners

This episode title is sure to get us in trouble with some lawyers.  As is the implication that we’d get a boner from Mikey Mouse.  But really, we are just geeking out about all the cool nerdy stuff in our lives.  At the moment this episode goes up, Tim is on the ocean cruising with […]

Episode 176 – New Tabletop Games

We spent the weekend at Omegacon playing a bunch of tabletop games!  If you don’t live in Minnesota, you probably don’t care about Omegacon, but you’ll probably care about the games we played.  We are joined by our friend Eric Knight and we discuss some new, hot games like Codenames, Spyfall, and Mysterium. If you are into […]

Episode 175 – Separating the Art from the Artist

Wow – we’ve reached 175 episodes and we didn’t even notice!  Does that make you concerned about our integrity?  Maybe you think it is so awful, you aren’t sure if you can listen to our podcast any longer.  Before you make that decision, you should listen to our conversation about dealing with the enjoyment of […]

Episode 174 – Sex Positivity

This week, we are joined by our friend Geoffrey Brown to talk about sex.  Specifically, we are talking about sex positivity and how so much of American culture (and other global cultures) seem to be built around the idea that sexuality is something shameful.  Geoffrey describes him as an “agnostic in all things” and we […]

Episode 173 – Sense8

It’s time for another episode where the three of us talk about a geeky TV show we enjoy!  If you haven’t had a chance to watch the Netflix original series “Sense8” and you care about spoilers, you may want to wait before you listen to this episode.  We don’t spoil it too much because Tim […]
