Geek History Lesson

This year I finally figured out how to write a review in the actual app. You guys are hysterical. The text men episodes make me laugh so hard. You should bring text men on more often than once a year. Besides text man, I absolutely love your show. Keep doing what you do. Frank Leone

Hi Prof. Ashley & Prof. Jason! Just wanted to write a review as I initially stumbled across GHL via YouTube but decided to migrate over to Apple Podcast to get the full experience. I have loved being able to listen to the GHL episodes on a variety of comic characters to better understand some of their origins and history and to brush up on ones that I am familiar with. These episodes have made the more boring parts of my days go by a lot faster and I love both of your guys’ dynamic while you dive-into the crazy and interesting world of these stories and characters. I was shocked to not find episodes on characters like: Mystique, Rogue, Gambit, Squirrel Girl and Cloak & Dagger but would love to hear them in the future (hopefully). I also would love more episodes on obscure characters that I don’t know much about but have seen pop-up in media like Ambush Bug from DC Comics. Love the episodes that center around certain comic storylines as well. I am excited to get around to reading all of 52 because of listening to Jason gush about it from various episodes and because my first action figure I ever bought from my local comic shop was the 52 series Batwoman (I still have her)! Is there a GHL episode you guys have been excited to make that is overdue or a character you love that hasn’t gotten an episode yet? Anyways, thanks for the great podcast and can’t wait to listen to more! <3

I spent so much time searching for a good podcast that would dive into comic book history, and this one is just perfect. I listened to about 5 different podcasts before I found this one, and none of them were even a fraction as helpful or interesting. (word to the wise: rob liefeld has a podcast called robservations. it's not worth it.) They dive into the meanings behind the character, the origins, the artists & writers, the dates and the issues, and the hosts are just genuinely fun people to listen to. :) I've added many a comics run to my comic bucket list through this podcast. I love Geek History Lesson! (PS: begging for an episode about the role of women in comics, both as characters, (ex: the "fridging" phenomenon discussed on the Kyle Rayner episode) and as artists or writers! I know Ashley has things to say and I am DYING to hear them)

I love this podcast. As a broke high schooler, I don’t have the money to buy my own comics and learn about these myself, I love this podcast and can’t wait for more! (Still waiting for a Wiccan episode)
