S15 Ep28: S15E28 - MC BoJo's Christmas Rap The Geek Show

    • Technology

We apologise for the lateness of this episode - EGX happened so please look forward to our coverage of the event.



Anyway, Rob joins Producer Rob for another jaunt through the strange hinterlands of science, technology, culture and society where oddities tower like … well … very odd things really …



Kicking things off this week, we find out the unfortunate name of a growing trend that involves watching people studying on a livestream - a story that we discovered back in S15E23.



In the main news we discover that Jordan Peele may direct a remake of Candyman, research proves that jet hand dryers are basically air cannons for germs and bacteria, climate scientists join Fortnite to teach people an important lesson, Doctor Who gets a Little Miss book, laser guns are being used as scarecrows, lawsuits about cryogenically frozen heads, UFO landing pads and people thinking that they’re elves from Lord of the Rings.
