GSG26 - Big Brother

Remember what I was saying in the promo notes about being a paranoiac? I WASN'T KIDDING.

Tonight's episode references...

The Incredible Hulk.

The Dark Knight.

RFID tags.

Cell Phone tower triangulation

And using IR LEDs to defeat CCTV emplacements.

Now, get ready to enjoy. Paranoid delusions? You're SOAKING IN IT!

Apologetic Promos

Okay, the truth is, I didn't feel comfortable recording on Easter, and the episode I was writing tonight made me sound like a total paranoid schizophrenic. Which might explain some things. Also, it's after midnight, and I've Got Work In The Morning.

ANYWAY...

I need 24 hours to work up an episode. In the meantime, I haven't done one of these since October '06, if I remember correctly, but Slice of Sci Fi and other wonderful podcasts keep using the old ones.

Here's a little fresh promo love. And tomorrow, maybe I'll actually make the case that I am a paranoid schizophrenic.

This promo references... well... see how many you can name.

GSG25 - Keeping the Geeky Flame Alive

All geeks have been told at one time or another to "grow up" and leave their geeky pursuits behind. To those, hopefully we say "POPPYCOCK!" or something else that brings the right message and doesn't get us beat up. This episode we discuss...

Everyone's geeky about something, be it Imperial Star Destoyers, the 1956 Brooklyn Dodgers, the difference between the Nebula and Galaxy class Federation cruisers, and Mary I.

We get a kind word from Doug at GeekAcres.

We discuss places to go for anti-bullying help.

Also, we discuss learning restraint when evangelizing your flavor of geek, as well as the appropriate place for persistance. And Gundam Wing. And AI Lego Tanks.

Check your local hobby shops for cases and storage solutions for geeky things that may be running into all available space. And that's it.

Enjoy!

GSG23 - Real World Survival

Not as much comedy this week, as we're talking about real world survival. With the US economy going through some tough times, it's all right to take one episode to talk about some real-world survival tips. Here they are.

#1 - Some extra food is a good idea.
#2 - Save some water. Here's the FEMA site on that.
#3 - Fuel. Propane, charcoal, or the Sun. Here's a link to plans for building your own solar cooker.
#4 - Some emergency cash. Here's three books.
Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey
The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke by Suze Orman
and The Five Lessons a Millionaire Taught Me by Richard Paul Evans.
#5 - Get to know your neighbors. Elven Wizards in Proudmoore are found in World of Warcraft.
#6 - Have something non-electronic to do. Books are good. Boardgames are good. RPGs are good, and in particular, we at GSG advocate GURPS.

And that's it. Back to regular comedy podcasting next time.
Enjoy!
