Geek To Geek Podcast

Nintendo 3DS Console Lookback In this episode: This week we look back at the Nintendo 3DS console and why we love it. It's odd doing a retrospective on a game that is still technically being developed for, but it is at the end of its life cycle. That doesn't mean it's dead by any means. In fact, the Nintendo 3DS is one of the best systems we have ever owned. The games are phenomenal, and the range of titles is honestly better than any other console. We talk about the remasters and console ports. We discuss original titles and how m any of them were precursors to console titles that became some Best-in-Series (Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land). Weekly Geekery BJ checked out the Power Rangers movie, is rewatching the Good Place, playing World of Warcraft, and relaunching his Geek Fitness podcast! Void is working too much but still managed to wrap up playing Elder Scrolls Online, try out some shows and movies, find a new podcast about Business Wars, listen to a lot of Fall Out Boy, and has been playing Id

We talk about the recent Harry Potter's Birthday Party that Jennifer threw at the library, and how it's not as out of reach as you think to host a fan event that can draw hundreds of people. We know that a lot of you may have aspirations of hosting a con of some sort, of even just a fan event where you can get together with like-minded folks and geek out about what you love. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/geektogeekcast/support

Summer is awesome, but at the same time, there's a slump in a lot of the things we love. After the initial burst of movies...we are left with a drought. Video games don't get released because they're waiting for that holiday smash success. And books...well, we don't even know when books release, remember? But we talk about it all anyway and how we handle the drought. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/geektogeekcast/support

We check in on online communities in 2018 from how we’re feeling about them to how we interact with them day to day. We started blogging and this podcast for the community. To make friends. To bring people together over things we love. And while the communities and their platforms may have changed, we may be getting back to a more personal era of online talk. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/geektogeekcast/support

Best of the First Half of 2018 In this episode: We talk about our favorite things from the first half of the year! Generally, we break this up into different sections: Books, Video, and Games. We think this is one of the best ways to introduce new listeners to the podcast or to catch up if you haven't been able to listen to the whole season. It's also a great way to spend a lot of money on things you've probably forgotten about by now We have a new Discord server: discord.geektogeekcast.com There were quite a few things we had wanted to gush about all over again, (The Collapsing Empire by Scalzi and Frostpunk on PC). We discuss the social importance of Black Panther and Altered Carbon, and why Avengers: Infinity War really is half a movie. AND SO MUCH MORE We also discuss Blaugust and want to encourage you to join in. What's that? A month long introduction to blogging with mentorship and fun and friends! We love online communities, and if you're interested, you can join their Discord and sign up here: https:

We discuss the toys and new merchandise that’s out now in prep for Incredibles II, the state of the franchise’s video games and whether or not the “movie games” are any good, and what in the world is wrong with Disney World for having next to no Incredibles swag to buy when we were there a few weeks ago.

And somehow, we forgot to mention that Jennifer got a selfie with Mr. Incredible when she was told not to, got caught up in a dance party, and ended up in a conga line with Frozone. And now you know.

Reading State of Mind In this episode: We update each other on reading, audio books, when and how we’re reading, and basically everything that goes with it. While both of us are heavy readers, our patterns and habits work out really different. For instance, Void loves audiobooks and ebooks to sync so he can suit his situation, and Beej keeps his audio and written text separate.  The idea of branching out of our comfort zones comes up, with us both being engrossed in sci-fi and fantasy, but feeling the need to branch out because much of the fiction we read feels very "samey."  Non-fiction is drawing our attention, but for different reasons and with different media. We discuss tools to get through both podcasts and audiobooks faster, and what the most comforting parts of being a reader are to us. In general, we just discuss our love of books and reading and why we are where we are. We think you guys will be able to join in on this, too, because that's a big part of our community. Weekly Geekery Beej is still

Ready Player One In this episode: We talk about Ready Player One! We’ve both read the book but Beej saw the movie and has thoughts!

Void almost got a pacifist win in Fortnite, finished Altered Carbon, rewatched The Last Jedi while reading the novelization, started Persona 3 the animation, and is completely hooked on reading The Big Picture: The Fight for the Future of Movies.  Oh, also, Stardew Valley is back in the mix somehow?

We talk about movies that are dumb but kind of glorious because of it.  You know, movies where you can shut off your brain, but still enjoy them! We talk about some of our favorites including The Fifth Element, The Fast and the Furious, and the even sillier stuff like 21 Jump Street and the new Jumanji. We've talked before about movies being successful despite not being great cinema, and that's what these are. Meant to be silly, and we love that about them. That's why we watch them dozens of times. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/geektogeekcast/support
