TAG Network Summer Crossover 2013

Nerd Lunch Podcast

The next week will be a crazy one for the podcasts on the TAG Network. We are getting all mixed up.

For episode 95 of the Nerd Lunch Podcast, The Atomic Geeks; Digio, Christian and Downs, take over and are joined in the fourth chair by Ryan from the Perpetual Geek Machine podcast to do their version of Fan Fiction reviews.  Lots of awesome fan fic content including an Incredible Hulk/Knight Rider crossover, some Good Omens fan fic and another Police Academy sequel?  That’s also erotica?  I love you fanfiction.net.

Since the Geeks laid seige to the Nerd Lunch Podcast, CT, Jeeg and I took over the Atomic Geeks podcast for Episode 217.  While over there we bring back the long missing Geek News segment and then hold each other hostage for a round of Gunpoint Reviews.  Fun is had by all and I get to drop more than my share of profanities in my efforts to mimic Mr Mike Downs.

So download and listen to the latest episode of Nerd Lunch today featuring The Atomic Geeks from iTunes or listen to it on Feedburner.

Also, don’t forget to download episode 217 of The Atomic Geeks to hear the Nerd Lunch crew this week.  You can also get that episode on iTunes or directly on the Atomic Geeks website.

There is a lot more TAG Network Crossover craziness going on in the next few weeks.  My other podcast, Cult Film Club, will cross over with Classic Film Jerks in a two episode epic throwdown.  Expect to see those episodes tomorrow.  Also, the other podcasts; Geek Fallout, Bloke Show and Random Nerdness will switchup hosts to permanently confuse their listeners.  It should be a lot of fun.

Nerd Lunch Episode 93: Pop Culture Eraser 2

Nerd Lunch Podcast

This week JEEG IS BACK and we are joined again by Brian from Cool and Collected. This week we do a topic that I missed the first time out, The Pop Culture Eraser.

Pop Culture Eraser

We are each allowed to erase 1 person and 1 thing from existence. But we also have to envision how that would affect the pop culture landscape.  Jeeg was pretty bold with his choices but some of the things that get erased are the 60s Batman series, Jay Leno and Christopher Nolan.  The fun in this discussion is how this would affect pop culture in general after these things have been erased.

Nerd Lunch Episode 92: Reboot Challenge

Nerd Lunch Podcast

This week, Jeeg is out and we bring in Matt Ringler from Schlock Treatment podcast and Tim Lybarger from The Neighborhood Archive. This week we all talk about reboots and we are tasked with creating our own reboot of an existing property.

My choice for a modern reboot is Misfits of Science.  Matt talks about the TGIF lineup that contained shows like Mr Belvedere, Perfect Strangers and Full House.  Tim wants to reboot Gilligan’s Island and CT tries to tackle the impossible and reboots Back to the Future.  Prepare for some pretty good ideas that get thrown around.  Especially mine.  ALL of mine are GOLD.

Our long, slow crawl to episode 100 continues. While Jeeg is off searching for the third constituent element in his Weather Dominator this week, we are joined by our good friend Shawn Robare and first time guest Howie Decker of the Under Scoop Fire Blog and Podcast.  And in this very special episode, CT, the guests and I are discussing the GI Joe A Real American Hero toys.

We talk about the ones we had, we talk about the ones we wanted. We talk about some of our favorites and least favorites. We also talk about our current relationship with the property.  It’s a fun, nostalgia filled discussion, join us won’t you?
