    Game On!

    In a bit of a twist of fate, Zohner is out for this episode. Something about being trampled to death by a marching band... But never fear because Collin and Tracy pick up the slack as they chat with Cori Hoekstra, proprietor of Watchtower Cafe in Salt Lake City, and Dale Gifford from SaltCON, the largest annual board game convention in Utah. Listen as the inmates run the asylum and talk about board games, both new and old, and how you can get a FREE board game for yourself. If you're in the area, swing by the Davis Conference Center in Layton, UT this weekend and check out SaltCON for yourself. Then head south and get a cup of your favorite beverage and some food at Watchtower Cafe. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Return Of Arlen Schumer

    Our good friend, and noted comic book historian, author, and lecturer, Arlen Schumer joined us to talk about how Stan Lee committed the greatest art crime of the 20th century, why The Twilight Zone has stood the test of time, the racist origins of Marvel's Black Panther's costume, Batman: The Animated Series, and a lot more. Arlen has taken it upon himself to teach others about just how influential and important the Silver Age actually was to comic book storytelling, and to art in general. He is the author of the award-winning book, The Silver Age of Comic Book Art, and has given numerous lectures all across the country on the subject of comic book art and history, Batman: The Animated Series, Jack Kirby, The Twilight Zone, and more. He also has lectures planned on Black Panther, 1968, and Bruce Springsteen coming later this year. You can follow Arlen on his website, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, and YouTube. And while you’re at it, go buy his book. You’ll be glad you did! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Looking for Love in Alderaan Places

    On a very special episode, Zohner, Collin, and Tracy are on location at Quirky Engine Family Game Store in Kaysville, UT. And to make things even better, they are joined by three awesome ladies to discuss dating in the geek community. Listen to Whitney, Sara Jane, and Christie share their thoughts with our panel of geeks. Come learn about dating do's and dont's, hover hands, what types of guys are more respectful to cosplayers, and which one of our guests gets lots of marriage proposals and which one gets sent unsolicited nudes. Beware, given the subject of the episode, it may be considered by some to be mildly NSFW in parts. Thanks to Whitney, Sara Jane, Christie, and Quirky Engine Family Game Store for helping make this show so fun. And be sure to check out Super Sonic Speed Dating and Ultimate Fandom Online to show our guests some love. We also want to thank the guys over at IdiotBox for providing us with the music at the end of the show. Be sure to check out and subscribe to their YouTube channel. Hosted on Acast.

    Generic Geek Podcast welcomes a new geek to the crew as we discuss the happenings at Disney theme parks specifically Avatar - World of Pandora (found at Animal Kingdom) and Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire (the new, groundbreaking hyper-reality experience located in Downtown Disney from The VOID). We also stumble into some thoughts on the DCEU and why angry Aquaman is the best Aquaman. And then there's the news and rumors circulating around the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story. (Seriously, how do we not have a trailer for this yet?) Hosted on Acast.

    GGP #26 - The Last Jedi Reviewed

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi hit theaters, and being the huge Star Wars geeks that we are, you know we couldn't pass on the opportunity to give you a detailed breakdown of the movie and share our thoughts. So... here it is. Um... Yeah... Anyway, this week, Collin and Zohner are joined by Tracy "Scoops" Mangum, and there is a lot of Star Wars talk. Beware though as spoilers are abundant! If you haven't seen The Last Jedi yet, first, why not, and second, you may want to wait to listen to this episode until you rectify that. And if you're interested in watching the video of this episode, it will be available to our Patreon supporters. Head on over and check it out.

    GGP #25 - Scott Niswander Interview

    I'm a huge fan of the YouTube channel, NerdSync Productions. For years, Scott Niswander has put out quality videos exploring fascinating topics ranging from history, science, philosophy, culture, and art. The best part though is that he makes some of these complex ideas a little more accessible and easy to understand by using heroes and villains from the world of comic books. And I love me some comic books... If you're not familiar with NerdSync, check out the video above (hidden behind the featured image) for a behind the scenes look at the NerdSync studio. You can also check out their most popular videos here. Anyway, Scott was kind enough to take some time out of his busy production schedule to sit down with us and discuss his channel, his favorite heroes, and how he uses comic books to teach others about the world in which we live. If you're interested in anything geeky, then this is a conversation that you definitely want to hear. And once you're done listening, go show NerdSync some love over on their Patreon page. And while we're talking about Patreon, we'll be posting video of this conversation exclusively for our supporters. It's not too late to get in on that action! Special thanks to Scott for joining us. We also want to thank our own Patreon supporters, Ruff and Zane. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    GGP #24 - Chris Provost Interview

    With Salt Lake Comic Con coming up September 21-23, we thought it would be fun to mix things up a bit and sit down with someone that isn't Dan Farr to talk about the event and what takes place behind the scenes. (Not that we don't like to talk with Dan, because we do, but we thought that a change would be good.) So instead of Dan, we were joined by Salt Lake Comic Con emcee, and awesome joke teller, Chris Provost. Come listen as Chris tells us some of his favorite experiences from previous conventions, including how Walter Koenig from Star Trek played an epic prank on him backstage. He also manages to share a few awesome jokes, and of course we talk about his amazing wife, Amanda and her love for Darth Vader. It's a fun conversation that not only gives you insight into what takes place literally behind the scenes at Salt Lake Comic Con, it also sheds light on the man, the myth, the legend that is Chris Provost. For more of Chris, be sure to subscribe to his YouTube channel where you can find awesome nuggets like the video below. You can also follow his adventures on Instagram and Facebook. Thanks to Chris for taking time out of his busy schedule to chat with us. And thanks to our Patreon supporters, Bruce, Ruff, and Zane! If you enjoyed this episode and would like to say thanks, visit our Patreon page to find out how. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
