GEEK THEORY PODCAST - It's Got That Rude D in the Middle

We're feeling creative again this week which means it's time for another pipedreams episode! As it was recorded on what is now dubbed "Sonic Day" (though only by us, it seems) we each have a Sonic game to pitch. (Just Gavin's pitch this week)

Gavin starts it off with a 3D Sonic game but good, but also Zelda? Alex comes in hot with a GTA-style game set in beautiful Glasgow, complete with high-sci-fantasy nonsense and David follows up with a pitch for a GTA series, featuring different casts and directors.

There's a bit of Thrones chat at the start, but it's way back at the Battle of Winterfell so hopefully, you'll not be spoiled. Plus, is Cherry Limeade even a thing? Don't forget it is (was) Sonic Day! Enjoy! ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Calm Down, Dumbledon't (And Where to Find Him)

This week we finish our topic of best "part 3s". Alex doesn't pick the best song in the world, no, he picks a Tribute. Gavin takes a lads holiday in JK Rowling's Wizarding World and David talks about how you just can't get good radio in videogames anymore.

We also discuss more TV,  may or may not mention a Hitler body-double and pretty much ruin Harry Potter for everyone. It's worth it, but you have been warned. Enjoy. ;)

(Spoilers for the second Fantastic Beasts film, but Gavin hasn't seen it either and frankly it doesn't sound great, let alone Fantastic)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Tall Glass of Baise, Josh Boyfriend

Welcome back! This week, we're talking about our top part 3s. David makes a controversial choice to open the episode with, Alex completely ignores the topic of the episode to talk about a game he likes and Gavin likes Zelda. If nothing else is gleaned from his pick this week, that's the message he want to get across to you. 
We also start the episode by smashing Alex's expectations of the the next Spider-Man film, and he also gives us an update on how much he's enjoying Grimm. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Thundercuts!

Welcome to the cutting room floor, ladies and gentlemen. Gavin was at a (excellent) stag this weekend so scheduling was a little tight. Here, we've gathered some snippets of conversation from over the last year that didn't fit into the episode, tangents that became their own topic or jokes that Gavin found funny enough to subject you to again.

We start by complaining about the hot weather, then proceed to Scottish up Metal Gear. We dissect the anatomy of a "good" pint of Tennents and wonder how exactly the Umbrella Corporation actually makes any money. We also try writing our own Dragon Ball plots and recast the show with Overwatch characters.

We hope you enjoy this mixed bag of random we've managed to gather over the last 16 months and regular programming shall resume shortly. :)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - Deatheater Info Wars

This week we continue our discussion on worst adaptations. Gavin calmly explains how and when a dragon should die, David points out that watching Batman watching YouTube isn't as fun as it sounds and Alex gives explicit detail on how to NOT remake a 10/10 movie. (Apparently just making each scene three times longer doesn't equal success)

 We also take a wee break in amongst the rage and bile to talk about some stuff we actually enjoy, like Grimm. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - So, Yeah... Zelda...

This week, it's our worst adaptations! David urges those dreaming of being "the very best" to dream smaller, Alex insists that you can't just kill wizards with big beams and Gavin starts talking about Zelda and gets shafted repeatedly. Just telling it like it is.

We also discuss Gavin's hoarding of precious collectables, both virtual and real. The Mario movie gets talked about without it being anyone's pick, it just kind of ends up being there. Funny that. Enjoy. ;)

GEEK THEORY PODCAST - BFFs (Bad Friends Forever)

More robots this week! Alex takes us on a mysterious journey of the soul, David prowls about the topic of robot racism and Gavin likes the strong, silent type that gets the job done.

We also develop our robo-drama, give characters depth, have a mid-season cook-off, come up with a title. Final drafts of the scripts are being processed as we speak. Enjoy. ;)
