Enjoy the 25th Epiversary Listener Spectacular.

Episode 21 – Like, Totally Awesome Part Deux

Steve — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 23:13:27 +0000

The discussion of the eighties continues in this podcast as Steve takes a look at some of the television of the eighties. Sure to infuriate you as he most likely leaves out your favorite show from the decade that laid the foundation for a whole generation of geeks. A special Halloween segment and the usual listener e-mails rounds out the show. (Steve may or may not get choked up at one of the e-mails.)

Episode 20 – Like, Totally Awesome

Steve — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 20:25:42 +0000

On this, the twentieth epiversary of Geek Out Loud, we’re taking it back to where the foundation was laid for little Steve to grow into the Big Honkin’ Geek that he is today. It’s all eighties talk along with your e-mails (which turns into a pimp everyone’s podcast segment), a real life superhero, and a rubik’s cube.

Star Wars Geeking Out continues in this episode of Geek Out Loud. We take a look at moments that make the original trilogy great, your Star Wars memories, a little Expanded Universe and collecting talk, and we wrap it all up with a new segment that can be considered funny, inspirational, or downright offensive. (Depending on your mood.) So cuddle up with an Ewok, feel the Force, get that big walking carpet out of your way, and enjoy Geek Out Loud.
