The Geekscape 'Peacemaker' Season 1 Special! James Gunn's 'Peacemaker' starring John Cena just wrapped it's first season on HBO Max! So now it's time to sort through the bodies! Lucky enough for us, Ian Kerner is part of the team so we'll be delving through his DC comic book knowledge to talk about what we thought of the 8 part series! How did characters like Peacemaker, Judo Master and Vigilante compare to their comic book counterparts? What about the new characters to the team? Does this series fit in with the larger DCEU? What could we expect from Season 2? And which characters from Gunn's 'The Suicide Squad' team do we think will be the lead in their own planned series?

It's time for a rock and roll education episode of Geekscape! Jamie Woolford and Rory Allen Phillips of The Stereo join me this week to talk about their upcoming album 'Thirteen'! The duo released their debut album 'Three Hundred' way back in the summer of 1999 on Fueled By Ramen (and also played my WXPN Philadelphia radio show so this will be another reunion of sorts)! Since then, artists like Jack Antonoff (Bleachers, Fun.), Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy), and Chris Carrabba (Dashboard Confessional) have cited the band as influences. So why haven't you ever heard of them? Well, Geekscape's here to help put an end to that as we talk about the band's on and off again history, their upcoming album and podcast and a lot more! You're not going to want to miss this one! Visit The Stereo online and get a copy of 'Thirteen'! Subscribe to Geekscape on Apple Podcasts! Follow Jonathan on Twitter and Instagram!

Luckily, Ian Kerner and I are here to dig through the remains of 'The Book of Boba Fett' Season One like a Jawa picking through Bantha poodoo! What parts worked? What parts didn't? What new characters were introduced that were awesome? And did they stay awesome throughout the 7 episodes? More importantly, what do these episodes mean for the larger Star Wars universe? When will we see The Mandalorian and Grogu next? What about Black Krrsantan or the Hutt twins? Is the book closed on Boba Fett and Fennec Shand?

Last year's Gamestop stock market phenomenon really surprised a lot of people. Within a few days, the stock that most people thought was completely dead skyrocketed to new heights and sent shockwaves through Wall Street. But how did it happen? Who were the players? And what were its repercussions? That is all explored in the new documentary 'Gamestop: Rise of the Players' and the film's director Jonah Tulis is on Geekscape this week to talk about the film, racing to put it together, the stock phenomenon and a lot more! AND the film was produced by Console Wars writer and Geekscape friend Blake Harris so you know it'll be an interesting conversation! Subscribe to Geekscape on Apple Podcasts!

It's a comic book heavy conversation on a brand new Geekscape when Jason Inman arrives on the show to talk about his second issue of Super Best Friend! Together we introduce Katie to the masterpiece that is Art Spiegelman's 'Maus' and double down on Nazis being terrible people! We also try to explain Marvel's 'The Sentry' and how he is not exactly Superman which leads us down quite the rabbit hole! For sure we cover all the bases on Jason's Kickstarter for Super Best Friend issue 2 and make fun of NFTs and Matt Kelly's thin defense for making us all go to Spaghetti Factory during Comic Con! And we can't end Geekscape this week without talking about that Mando-centric episode of 'The Book of Boba Fett' and how it really would be awesome if Tatooine finally blew up and they told some stories somewhere else!

Vin Diesel said it best: it's all about family! And we've got an awesome, growing family right here at Geekscape! In fact, it's growing so quickly that maybe you haven't gotten a chance to meet everyone yet! Well, Katie and I are going to try and fix some of that this week as we introduce you to Donald and Leigh from Geekscape's 'Saturday Morning Showdown' podcast! That's right. We have a show all about classic Saturday morning cartoons and we're going to be talking a bit about nostalgia, what shows defined our childhoods and maybe what shows are best left forgotten! Along the way, Leigh discusses her hunt for Happy Meal Toys, Katie learns to educate, entertain and inspire and I talk some crazy B.S. about turning my face into a pizza. Some how I rave about 'Station 11', Katie loves Denzel in 'The Tragedy of Macbeth' and I enjoy Paul Thomas Anderson's 'Licorice Pizza'! It's a heck of a lot of fun! And Katie is not an opossum!

Many of you are familiar with Werner Herzog's acclaimed documentary 'Grizzly Man', which tells the story of the late Timothy Treadwell. Treadwell was a bear enthusiast, environmentalist and documentary filmmaker who lost his life while living among and documenting coastal brown bears. But what happened to the film that Treadwell was making? That footage is now being released as 'Diary of The Grizzly Man', a three-hour mini-series produced by my Geekscape guests Erik Nelson and Jewel Palovak, the producers of Werner Herzog’s acclaimed documentary. This new three-hour mini-series comes out on January 11th and is crafted from Treadwell’s 13 years of material. It takes us deep inside the unfolding dramas and life and death struggles of the Alaskan animals he devoted his life to protecting and understanding. We also eulogize the late greats Sidney Poitier, Bob Saget and Peter Bogdanovich. Subscribe to Geekscape on Apple Podcasts! Follow Jonathan on Twitter and Instagram!
