Customer Reviews
This is an awsome podcast
I really enjoy this podcast and after I found it a year ago Iv downloaded every episode since. Thanx for the tips against zombies, aliens, etc. Remember to keep your head down and your dice handy.
Geek survival guide is awesome
this is one of my favorite podcasts which i subscribe to. i hope to write in about survival techniques involving killbots, super-villians, and many more things. excellent background music and voice, very well put together.
GSG is hilarious!
In one episode ("Homicidal Maniacs"), I was hooked and since have downloaded all nine. If you are a geek or basically anyone else, this is the podcast for you. I repeat, this is the podcast for you! Zach Ricks has this extremely calm way of telling you how to survive giant rubbery sea monsters and how NOT to become "Victim Number Four". So subscribe to GSG, and keep your head down and your dice handy.
