    205: Thunderbolts, Haunted Reads & Metallica (But Not Really)

    This week, we’re serving up superheroes, spine-tingling horror, and concert surprises you won’t see coming. 🎥📚🤘😂 🔥 What’s Hot – We saw Marvel’s Thunderbolts* and honestly? It’s the jolt of energy the MCU desperately needed. We break down what makes this anti-hero team-up stand out and why it might be one of the studio’s boldest moves yet. 📖 What Are You Reading? – David dives into Where He Can’t Find You by Darcy Coates, a horror novel that blends supernatural dread with real-world terror. Spoiler alert: it’s creepy as hell and totally worth the read. 🎤 The Mosh Pit – Frack finally got to check seeing Metallica live off her bucket list—twice. But here’s the twist: the band wasn’t even the best part of the shows. We talk openers, atmosphere, and why live music still hits different. 🍿 Shit That Doesn’t Suck – David gets hooked on a new Apple TV+ comedy, while Frack takes it back with a classic HBO series that still holds up and still brings the laughs. Superpowers, scares, shredding, and sitcoms—it’s another classic Geek Garage combo. #TheGeekGarage #Thunderbolts #DarcyCoates #Metallica #AppleTVPlus #HBOComedy #SceneKidsForever #NerdsWhoMosh If you enjoy our show, please leave us a rating & review on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!
