GEEK THEORY PODCAST - A Cave Full of Bad Ham
This week finish talking about our favourite betrayals. David discusses
the best of bad/good acting that we enjoy. Gavin is the one to get all
political, which just makes Alex hungry. Alex talks about the importance
of diversity and teamwork within a Community, and also how a falling
out my have shafted an old man's redemption arc.
We also cover a whole heap of Netflix and Disney+ shows, Alex recommends some anime and manga, David give the Dragon Ball Super Broly film a two thumbs fresh review and MORE! Have a Merry Day and a Happy Day after that. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Lactose Intolerance was an Inside Job
We're back, baby! After weeks of scheduling conflicts and technicals difficulties, we've managed to find our way back into your earholes. So we will fill them with our best betrayal! Alex starts with dietary requirements our bodies for upon us. Dave insists he's not a moron and proves it with SCIENCE! Gavin asks would you kindly enjoy our first episode back after our short hiatus.
We also discover how far away space is, and we could probably walk there as a result. Dave and Alex talk about Evangelion again, while Gavin phases out for a bit. We also put as much faith that's humanly possible into the new Sonic movie trailer. (Gavin does, anyway. The sweet Summer-child that he is) Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Thunder Cuts 2: Revengenation
IT'S THUNDER CUTS 2! That's right, we hit a bit of a scheduling conflict but luckily Gavin saved enough nonsense to cobble together an entire episode!
Nonsense includes (but not limited to):
How well the mushroom poll is going, plus. what is a mushroom poll?
Gavin's Hair and how is it so damn glorious?
Whatever "Make it hot" means when ordering a sandwich
Can we get a sponsorship with Jammy Dodgers?
Gavin's mum hypothetically making fun of him on a bus for reading a book
Tango Ice Blasts and the fall of cinema.
Yes, that's right folks, all that and more in this weeks exciting episode of Geek Theory (Radio) Podcast! Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - A Toaster Throne of Lies
This week, we finish our conversation on our favourite toys. Gavin talks about his first forays into gaming (or rather, his mum's first forays into gaming). David brings up "role-play" toys. It's not what you (or Alex and Gavin) think. Mostly. Alex talks about his favourite action figures that came with their own "shogun armour".
Gavin's final pick this week is toast. You'll have to listen to believe it. We also explain how time travel in Japan can quickly get pretty boring, Alex and Dave do a news update while Gavin goes to the bathroom and most of the conversation was fuelled by 4% alcohol. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Just Another Wild Night in Scramble City
We're getting all nostalgic this week with our favourite toys. David starts off with his love for combining things to make bigger things, which quickly becomes talking about Saturday morning TV. Alex brings up dolls for boys and how challenging gender norms as a kid can make you a better person. Gavin talks about the greatest constructions ever conceived then tells a story that Alex promptly fills with damned lies! So just your standard story then.
We also manage to talk about puppets, map makers for babies and how if you rob the wrong bank then you'll have to fight the Queen (or a champion of her choosing). Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Primer for Big Ghostin'
This week, we finish our conversation on our favourite big bastards. Gavin complains that fighting games are too hard and would rather they played themselves. David believes that everyone can redeem themselves, even if they do push children from windows. Alex picks two completely separate people and we barely talk about either of them. Pretty standard, by this point.
We also can't keep track of all the Khans we know, whether they be a tiger or despotic overlord. We discuss who would play what in future Marvel roles and then by the end we completely lose the plot. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Dirty Boyo
This week, we're discussing our favourite Big Bastards. We're covering
everything from sheer size to just how low down and dirty these guys can
be. Or both.
David starts us off with a king who just wants to bang your wife, and could potentially steal her from another dimension to do it. Alex gets us talking about good parenting, mostly involving cliffs and how far you can punt your kid from them. Gavin talks about how just because you're no good at accounting, doesn't mean you can't lead a motley crew of pirates through space.
We also cover the secrets of waterfalls and why you should always try to walk through them and why it probably isn't a good idea to name your children after musical instruments. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - He's a Shrinker, Not a Dinker
This week, our worst weapons continue with David wanting just one of the 40 million other players, worldwide, to stay on the god damn point. He then questions if turning into a gun is really the best move a leader should take.
Alex complains that his crime sprees are being hindered by his lack of gadget synergy. He then comes out with the Klobb. Do you know what that is without looking it up? Of course you don't. Alex gets sent to the burn ward shortly after making this pick.
Gavin rages against the most mundane thwarter of evil there ever has been, and together we figure out Avada Kadavras most terrible secret.
Then Alex makes a blatant plot to kill David and Gavin, all under the guise of Hallowe'en fun. The fun just does not stop. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - The Soft Focus of Youth
This week, we make good on our promise of improved sound quality! Oh, we also celebrate our 50th topic by talking about our least favourite weaponry. (Our first episode and Battle Royale were both our favourite melee and projectile respectively)
Alex takes carpenters to task over their favourite tools and prefers to fill volume with bullet. Gavin seemingly takes a very high moral stance on superweapons only to reveal his supervillain nature. David takes the colloquial use of the word "weapon" (In Scotland, it can also mean a person of dangerous idiocy) and we discover that there are a bunch of Pokemon we could totally take in a fistfight.
Then there's the usual nonsense, in-jokes and self-made memes that you've come to expect from us. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Sassy Lesbian Bond
We are back to finish our top assassin chat. David reveals Disneys hold
over his destiny, mostly through monthly fees and merchandising. Alex
has to slowly explain the synopsis of Crank to a man who basically
hasn't seen more than two new films a year, ever. Gavin gets Crank
explained to him slowly, then misinterprets what good bone magic is.
We also get into Dungeons and Dragons (for Gavin is a dummy) and there's a distinct cry for a new Bond. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - From the Studio that Didn't Even Bring You New Mutants
This week, we're discussing our favourite assassins. Gavin starts things off by expressing his deep-seated suspicion of every bald person he sees. David wonders what it would be like if whales got more involved with the general narrative while blinking an obscene amount. Alex decides it would be best to put all his mistakes in the past, then going back to the past to kill those mistakes. To each their own.
We also catch up on the topic of bees, Speed, Keanu Reeves' secret movie list of the past 5 years and SO MUCH MORE! Believe it! Enjoy! ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Battle Royale 4: Multiversal Master Chef of Madness
This is it folks, the topic we've inevitably been building to for the last two years; our top food.
This week, Alex, David and Gavin discuss their favourite starters, mains and deserts while under the close scrutiny of a God-like Greg Wallace. Welcome to the Battle Royale... with cheese. Enjoy. ;)
(Disclaimer: We talk about a LOT of meat, so be warned. Also, don't listen to this on an empty stomach. We will not be legally held responsible for any resulting hangry riots)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Dirty Doers Get Done Dirty
This week, we finish our conversation on our worst omniships. Alex
starts us off by taking a cattle prod to rile up the Internet.
Then we get into an argument.
Then David tries to rend all friendships asunder with blasphemous pizza toppings.
Then we argue.
Gavin tries to calm things down with the progenitor of all bad TV relationships.
Then we argue some more.
The major theme of this week is "conflict brings us closer together". Or that's what Gavin tells himself while he's editing through streams of tears. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - She's an Almond Voltron
This week, we're discussing our worst omniships. Everything from couples
to cruisers and everything in between. (Everything, in this case, being
religion, politics and money) Gavin starts off by complaining about how
about death cults in space can really hold us back as a species. Alex
unveils a long history of racism and betrayal in a world where mushrooms
are both friend and food. David sticks one to Big Microtransactions as
he names and shames the bigger offenders.
My gosh, that sounds like heavy stuff. Rest assured, it's handled with the usual amount of deft and grace* you've come to associate with the show. (Edit: *daft and disgrace) Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - The Bastard Brain is Connected to the Narc Bone
This week, we finish our conversation on our favourite rivalries. Gavin
talks about enemies having similar goals, while Alex interjects with a
drunken character. Alex then goes on to gives us a blow-by-blow account
of a Nicolas Cage film, that was so good Gavin ended up watching the
film again. David gives us a vast selection of scenarios and lets us
decide what drink would be best for it.
We also talk about science (like actual geeks), machines that totally don't exist and the various times we've fallen over because we're adults and we can drink as much as we want! Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Phoeno Noire
This week, we're discussing our favourite rivalries. Alex starts us off by sticking a penny in the door and infuriating an omniscient custodian. Dave dishes out various scenarios to determine the best burger and Gavin attempts to toss a dwarf, only to later find out that nobody does that.
Then there's the usual Dragon Ball, Harry Potter and Batman that we've all come to expect. And we once again try and get sponsored by local food establishments. (finger crossed) Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - He's a Sneaking Genius, He's a Smoking Genius, He's a Fighting Genius
This week, we finish our conversation on our favourite geniuses. Obviously, being geniuses of staying on topic, we start the show with a bunch of seemingly random TV recommendations, so there's that.
Gavin starts by talking about the benefits of legalising crime in your city to keep it in line. If you can tax it, you can control it. Alex shows he's a genius of picking a final pick by picking all of them. David spins a tale, any size, and hates it when people go organic.
We've also got Transformers and Digimon in there, and they aren't even Honourable mentions. They somehow just get shoehorned in. There's a full-blown discussion about the upcoming Final Fantasy VII Remake as well. Then the usual shenanigans. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Chekhov's Pazuzu
This week, we drink and talk about our favourite geniuses. Gavin avoids
the obvious pick then learns about The Sinister Boob. Alex adds a new
Bad Friend to the posse of evil robots and David steals 40 cakes. That's
as many as four tens. And that's terrible.
There's also the usual nonsense, tangents, heatstroke, visual jokes. Proving we are indeed not geniuses of podcasting. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - My Jungle Love (Oheeoheeoh)
This week, we crawl over the finish line on our conversation about our favourite idiots. We fight valiantly but the heat gets the better of us. Alex tries to get us involved in a pyramid scheme, uttering the words "Man in the Coil", the bait and switches. David just wants protagonists to keep their personal belongings on them at all times. Gavin gets really excited to talk about a book. (He's just proud he can read)
But wait! There's more. The heat has us tangent wildly, like being off-topic was somehow keeping us cool. Alex and Dave get into how highschool Music made them better liers and Gavin disappoints Alex with his complete lack of discipline. All in all, we made it to the other side completely different people. Enjoy. ;)
