The Geologic Podcast is a weekly podcast consisting of personal stories, comedy sketches, news commentary, music and movie reviews, science advocacy, original songs, and interviews. Its host and producer is musician, composer, drummer, comedian, storyteller, TEDx speaker, event emcee, and vigilant defender of the Theory of Gravity— George Hrab. The content often draws from Geo’s musical career; the music industry in general; his adventures as a semi-almost-famous critical thinker; his fascination with language, culture, and science; and ranges in tone from incredibly serious to unbearably silly.
The show’s name is a portmanteau of “George” and “Logic,” and—quite confusingly—the show contains no geology content whatsoever. Recurring characters on the show (all portrayed by Hrab) include Dr. Damian Handzy, Mortimer, Minoishe Interroberg, Rupert McClanahan and many others. The podcast content varies from week to week, but often features several of a number of recurring segments including Interesting Fauna, Ask George, Geo’s Mom Reads Jay-Z Lyrics, The History Chunk, Horror-Scopes, and The Weekly Standard. George looks at his show as a type of “brain sorbet” for those who may need the occasional respite from the “coarses” of life.
The podcast started in February 2007, and George has rarely missed posting one episode per week ever since. Just ask his therapist.

Customer Reviews
Fun and entertaining show
George does a great weekly podcast. Always a fun and entertaining listen and I look forward to every new episode.
Very Enjoyable
George is an excellent creator. Very enjoyable topics every week. Fun and relaxing podcast.
Vibraphone
If you are looking for Skeptical Podcasts, you basically find one of two types. There's the ones that address the science, usually by scientists, and there's ones that examine the human angle, through comedy, art, outreach, Q&A etc. The Geologic Podcast is definately in the second camp, but George manages to keep all of those tools to hand as he explores the human side of our search for rational enlightenment and a better, secular world.
And he's really funny.
I can't really hit him up enough in this review, so download an episode & check it out. If you want to hear a talented musician and all-round funny guy examine the world we live in and the weird stuff that we do - with the odd (lengthy) musical digression - then you'll probably be like me and end up downloading the whole back catalogue. And maybe buying a few of his cd's.
