This week we go free-form for a discussion about smartphones. Beginning with the origins of the species, find out what we use our smartphones for as we discover how powerful they’ve become. We also surmise about the future of smartphones and the role that mobile gaming has to play in […]
The Geek Show
S14E16 – Sadako Vs. RoboPriest
We have adorable robots and nonsense aplenty this week, so join us as we parade our way through the stranger side of science and technology news (while also discovering why PepĂ© Le Pew is the worst). With Samsung’s security, pacemaker hacking, teaching AIs in Paris, North Korean technology announcements, Toyota […]
S14E15 – Battle Royale or Go Home
It’s that time of the month again so get ready for another round of Defend your Choice. This time the theme is fictional sports and games that we wish existed in reality (i.e. really real instead of the fake real that is real-world quidditch). This week we were broadcasting from […]
S14E14 – Iggle Piggle’s Army of War Drones
Another week, another odd episode title that defies all sense of reason or logic. It’s a theme that’s continued throughout the show as we discuss electoral Snapchat, pirates, London trains, prison drones, KitKat’s, xenomorphs, Russia (twice), and social realism for clowns. It’s a mad, mad, mad world and we just […]
S14E13 – The Secret History of Gunge
Underground, overground, rambling free. The ramblers of The Geek Show, common are we. This week the gang have a long and meandering chat about … stuff. From gunge and celebrity albums to terrible comic book villains and Steven Seagal – with lots of other stuff in between. Yeah, we don’t […]
S14E12 – The Shortness of Short Shorts

S14E11 – Calvin & Hobbes Save Japan
We take a break from the weird world of science and technology news for a good old bout of Defend Your Choice. This time the two Rob’s and Andrew hit the comics and manga to find superheroes that they’d love to see on the big screen. Some of the choices […]
S14E10 – Super Fun Colonel Sanders Ultimate Maximum Fight Hour
This week’s episode may just have the most outtakes in podcast history – and all of the were necessary. Elsewhere within the hallowed halls of The Geek Show we find space travel, virtual reality weddings, the Japanese exploits of Colonel Sanders, internet research techniques and true immortality – which leads […]
S14E09 – Worm on Worm Violence
There are an awful lot of see-saw’s this week as we start with a serious discussion (no, really), which gets derailed by a toaster. Things continue from there in a similar fashion with paperclips, robots, torrenting, and the latest exploits from PETA. That’s just how we roll … Tune in […]
S14E08 – Macho, Macho Smithers
We took a week off to move house and get the furniture just the way we like it! Now that everything’s nice and cosy we head straight back to the weirder ends of science and technology news spectrum, and along the way we discover sixth senses, deep sea romances, the […]
