    Stay Cool, Geek 185: SHAZAM! And other DC heroes...

    Dave Jahblahblahblah joins Kurt to go over a slew of news tidbits that have far reaching implications to a whole host of our favorite properties.
    STAR WARS! A new, original trilogy is being helmed by Rian Johnson, along with a live-action TV show.
    MARVEL EXPANDING! Could Marvel finally be getting the rights to the X-Men and the Fantastic Four? And not only that, but also the rights to the original uncut Star Wars films.
    DC TROTS OUT JUSTICE LEAGUE! Justice League is upon us, and what do these two ever-loving DC superfans expect? Also, Shazam is case, and Black Adam's first appearance is potentially revealed. Oh yeah, and Marvel heavyweight Brian Michael Bendis has joined DC... what does this mean?

    The Last Jedi has finally released a true trailer, and Jahblahblahblah is here to help Kurt break it down.
    Is Kylo turning good? Is Rey going bad? What is Luke's hair doing? Are the Porgs ruining it? Does Snoke look cool? Plus, the music, the shots, the anticipation!
    The guys also chat about the firing of Collin Trevorrow, the hiring of JJ Abrams, and who it could have been taking over the director's chair. 
    Justice League is upon us... but are these DC super-fans happy? From wise-cracking Flash to Metallica-loving Aquaman, what's good and what's bad about the new trailer.
    Finally, Hollywood has been rocked by the Harvey Weinstein revelations, and Dave wants to know how Kurt feels about the situation.

    Stay Cool, Geek 183: Clowns Run Amok in The Mummy

    October is here! And that means a visit from our favorite Horror Host Hall of Famer, Dr. Gangrene!
    Thankfully, the guys have a slew of interesting horror topics to break down: Jamie Lee Curtis is returning to Halloween, The Walking Dead is upon us, IT is racking up dollars at the box office, and... well, The Mummy is out for rental.
    These two classic universal monster horror movie buffs try to dissect what went wrong with The Mummy, if they can fix it, and how they'd approach making these movies if they were given the keys to the kingdom.

    Stay Cool, Geek 182: Game of Thrones Featuring Porgs

    Stay Cool, Geek 182: Game of Thrones Featuring Porgs

    Kurt is back, and he brings with him a whole slew of topics to ponder with regular contributor Dave Jahblahblahblah...
    Star Wars, The Last Jedi, and whether or not the evil BB8 droid is leading Kurt to the dark side of anxiety regarding the new film. Are the Porgs a sign that The Last Jedi is truly becoming "Disneyfied"? Is this simply an Empire Strikes Back retread? And will Luke wield a lightsaber? BLUE OR GREEN NO LESS?
    The DC Elseworlds Joker standalone movie might be happening, though the guys wonder why. Despite this, Dave nails the future Joker casting on the fly... be scared, be very scared.
    Are you PRO or CON Alien: Convenant? 
    Finally, Dave and Kurt practically burst at the seams waiting to talk about all things Game of Thrones... so much so they can barely contain their excitement and theories...
    Oh, Dave also discusses his Force Friday experience and casts the Stay Cool, Geek audience in Game of Thrones Roles.

I actually had the pleasure of meeting Kurt during the hunt for the new The Force Awakening toys. It was on Force Friday and he actually talked about our epic failed night of hunting on one of his episodes:). He told me he had a pod cast and after I heard the first episode I was hooked!!! I have listened to all 100 plus episodes and they have a been excellent. It is great to know that there are many misunderstood geeks like us out there!! Keep up the good work Kurt👍 and "see you down the road".
