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
George is delightful
Music, humor and skeptic. My favorite qualities in a person.
Episode 850: a TERRIBLE into to this podcast
I heard of this podcast for the first time this week. It sounded like something I might be interested in. I gave it a listen. The episode that came up was #850. That began with a full 30 minutes of commercial for the podcast and George’s other projects. It was very self-congratulatory and contained nothing of value for the listener. I give up. You need to give listeners some reason to listen to your podcast in the first 30 seconds — never mind the first 30 minutes. Maybe that stuff was interesting to faithful fans, but certainly not to me. Waste of time.
Can’t keep up between

All the podcasts my little people listen to
