    Episode 20 - Zach To The Future

    This week, we’re taking a trip 30 years ahead to find out what we’d rush to see first. We also pick our favourite long-running TV gags, dream up the ultimate simulator game, rank our all-time favourite YouTube creators, and somehow end up building a 4-4-2 football team using Marvel characters. It’s a strange mix of future-gazing, nostalgia and superhero tactics… exactly as intended.

    Episode 18 - The Sword In The Gelatinous Cube

    This week, Zach and JK tackle some truly important questions. If Disney came calling, which character would each of them be trusted to bring to life? With Wolverine finally on the horizon, they discuss the villains they’re desperate to throw down with and the heroes they’d love to team up alongside. Elsewhere, they take a trip through Pokémon history to pick their favourite card sets, reflect on the advice they wish they could give their younger selves, and debate whether that knowledge would have changed the path they took. To round things off, they attempt the impossible: deciding which movie sequel didn’t just live up to the original, but completely surpassed it.

    Episode 17 - You Got A Friend In Me

    This week on Being A Geek For Dummies, Zach and JK pull up a chair and dive into friendship, fandom, and a few surprisingly difficult questions. From the gaming features that have quietly reshaped the way we play, to deciding who truly holds the universe together as the MCU’s anchor being, no stone is left unturned. The pair also head to Andy’s toy box to rank their favourite Toy Story characters beyond the usual Woody and Buzz picks, before turning the spotlight on each other. What makes Zach unmistakably Zach? What trait defines JK? And if either of them were dropped into an RPG, what stat would instantly stand out on their character sheet? A mix of geek culture, nostalgia, and friendly roasting awaits in Episode 17: You’ve Got A Friend In Me.

    Episode 16 - Our Super Sweet Sixteenth Episode

    This week on Being A Geek For Dummies, the conversation jumps from dream MCU additions to the games that deserve a proper remaster. Zach & JK debate which forgotten classics should return and how modern gaming has changed the way players discover secrets. There’s also a trip into a world where every person has an animal companion, plus a discussion on which movies and TV shows deserve the Lego game treatment, complete with ideas for gameplay mechanics inspired by the best TT Games titles.

    Episode 15 - Test Your Might

    Episode 15 steps into the arena as Zach and JK tackle the ultimate Mortal Kombat question: what would their signature fatality be? Along the way, they unpack game mechanics they refuse to touch, debate whether New Game+ actually adds replay value, celebrate their favourite media spoofs, and pitch custom-made games designed specifically for each other. Expect questionable ideas, strong opinions, and a few cursed concepts that probably should’ve stayed in development hell.

    Episode 14 - It’s Time To Play The Music

    Episode 14 of Being A Geek For Dummies sees Zach Ligmus and JK Roberts dive into the franchises they’ve somehow dodged for years, build the ultimate sidekick draft from film and gaming, and rank their essential Xbox 360 classics. There’s also a trip through the Upside Down with the one song that could pull them back from Vecna, before wrapping things up with a wildly specific dream Muppets casting session — complete with one very unlucky human surrounded by felt and nonsense.
