    Happy New Year everyone and welcome back to the Of Geeks and Goddesses podcast! We start our episode off by mentioning our brand new mic that we got for the holidays, courtesy of Michael, and as well as shouting out Michelle for donating to the podcast! We kicked off our new year by watching the Harry Potter 20th Anniversary Return to Hogwarts special on HBO Max! It was so nice to see so many familiar faces back on the screen, talking about their experience with the Wizarding world! We jump right into a nostalgia trip and talk about how much of an HP fan we were back in the day! From the books, movies, video games, shirts, magazines, AND theme parks, Harry Potter was everything! After that we talk about it's impact online and how Tumblr served as a huge foundation to connect to wizards and witches all around the world and hyping each other up for the end of Harry Potter with Deathly Hallows Part 2! We then talk theme parks with the additions to the Wizarding World in Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida, and how throughout the years it keeps expanding! We also briefly talk about our personal thoughts of what J.K Rowling (creator of HP) has recently said about Trans people on her Twitter page over the past year. After that we also chat about Pottermore, our experience with the website, how we got early access and the journey getting there! Hang on tight for a nostalgia trip back to when Harry Potter reigned supreme and ask ourselves "Where is Harry Potter now?" Thank you again to Michelle for donating to the podcast funds!

    Ep 5: Otaku Rants - Old School vs New School

    Welcome back to the Of Geeks and Goddesses podcast! So happy to finally be back with a brand new episode for you guys and it's about all things anime!

Going from celebrations, we talk about the Demon Slayer: Mugen Train movie and Demon Slayer's impact in modern pop culture and how far have anime movies have come. Next, we go on a nostalgia trip and talk about how hard it was to watch anime's back in the day with "illegal websites" and 4 part Youtube videos, as well as talking about anime merch and how easy it is to find cool streetwear that's anime themed. We'll be talking about how the "old school" reacts to the "new school" and how watching anime is so much easier and accessible in the modern era!

    Ep 4: Viva la Daft Punk, Viva la Musique

    On a very special episode of the Of Geeks and Goddesses podcast, we take a trip down memory lane and talk about the life and legacy of Daft Punk. The duo have been around for almost 30 years and have changed the way we listen to EDM and music in general. They've released 4 studio albums, 2 live albums, remix albums, 3 feature films, made the soundtrack for "Tron: Legacy" and collaborated with so many artists throughout their career. Throughout this episode, we'll be talking about how they started, their career through the years as well as looking into how their albums have changed not only sound but production and how they chose to promote it. We'll also be talking about the iconic robot heads we know today, their origins and how in every new era the duo enters, it changes in not only style but in the technological aspect as well. On our instagram page @ofgeeksandgoddesses, we asked our followers what do daft punk mean to them and how have the duo affected their lives! Throughout the episode, you'll be hearing responses that were sent to us as well as a closing statement from our friend and last guest, Ari!
