Gobbledygeek 115, "Actual Size"

Are you ready for Gobbledyween 2012?! Well, even if you're not, it's here now, so. This year, we're looking at a different Halloween-themed TV episode each week in October. First up is "Fear, Itself,…

Gobbledygeek 114, "Do You Know The Muppet Man?"

Is it just us, or are the works of Jim Henson kind of making a comeback?

Then again, they never really went away. Paul and AJ discuss Henson's life

and career, including such legendary projects as Th…

Gobbledygeek 113, "Star-Cross'd Lovers and Space Cowboys"

We're taking a trip to outer space this week as we look at Brian K. Vaughan's latest comic book series, Saga, which just wrapped its first arc last month; and Joss Whedon's Firefly, which just celebr…

Gobbledygeek 112,

Gobbledygeek 112, "The Inevitable Afterbirth"

It's been a recurring theme throughout the show, so it's inevitable that it was going to come to the forefront at some point: Paul and AJ have different attitudes about the art (or lack thereof) of f…

Gobbledygeek 111,

Gobbledygeek 111, "Eleventy-One"

Bust out your robes and light your pipes; the boys take a look at Rankin/Bass' 1977 animated adaptation of The Hobbit. Which also happens to be trippy as balls. They delight in the film's weird charm…

Gobbledygeek 110, "#12"

It's been one year--and exactly half the show ago--since DC rebooted their

entire line, dubbing this bold creative decision/shameless marketing ploy

the "New 52." Paul and AJ check back in on the New…

Gobbledygeek 109, "How to Survive Killing Seven Unchained Masters"

The leaves will soon start falling from the trees and awards bait will soon start arriving in theaters. That's right, it's almost time for the fall/winter movie season, so Paul and AJ give you a litt…

Gobbledygeek 108,

Gobbledygeek 108, "Grave of the Rabbits"

We know that every episode of Gobbledygeek makes you cry, but this one might especially depress you. It's Geek Challenge time once more, so Paul has tasked AJ with watching the 1978 animated adaptati…

Gobbledygeek 107,

Gobbledygeek 107, "@#$% You, Science!"

Paul and AJ had an idea for what they wanted this show to be about: science! Unfortunately, it didn't really work out. Fortunately--we think--they managed to come up with a bunch of other things to t…

Gobbledygeek 106,

Gobbledygeek 106, "The Olympics of Gay Chicken, Superheroes, and Furbys"

The dog days of summer have arrived, and with them even less of a sense of purpose and direction than our hosts usually display. So they babble on about a variety of topics: Chick-fil-A's rampant hom…

Gobbledygeek 105,

Gobbledygeek 105, "Take a Look, It's in a Book"

Do you remember what reading was like when you were a kid? That magical, transportive experience that took you to faraway lands and different time periods? Proving that, yes, they were once literate,…

Gobbledygeek 104,

Gobbledygeek 104, "The Long Dark Knight of the Soul"

The third (last?) major superhero movie of the year has arrived in the form of The Dark Knight Rises. Going into it, AJ was pumped and Paul was basically dreading it; amazingly, the two have united a…

Gobbledygeek, "Aurora"

In the aftermath of the shooting in Aurora, Colorado, which occurred at a midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises, we have decided to do a separate episode on the shooting so as not to trivialize…

Gobbledygeek 103,

Gobbledygeek 103, "Does Whatever a Reboot Can"

The year's second big superhero movie, following The Avengers--which you

may remember we discussed and AJ even wrote a review of--is The Amazing

Spider-Man, rebooting the franchise that sputtered to …

Gobbledygeek 102,

Gobbledygeek 102, "Insolent Musical Peasants"

The boys would like to sing a little song for you. Actually, no they wouldn't, because that would be awful for your ears, but they would like to tell you about songs they've enjoyed so far this year.…

01:42:55  |   Sat 07 Jul 2012
Gobbledygeek 101,

Gobbledygeek 101, "What Does God Need With a Starship?"

Ridley Scott's Prometheus opened earlier this month and has generated some nerd controversy with its Alien overtones, questionable character motivations, and general ambiguity. Paul and AJ discuss ev…

Gobbledygeek 100,

Gobbledygeek 100, "The Best (and Worst) of Bat-Turkey"

That's right, gobblers. 100 episodes. Who'da thunk it? Not us, that's for sure. If you're a long-time fan of the show, we've got a nice trip down memory lane for you, and if you're new to our ridicul…

Gobbledygeek 99,

Gobbledygeek 99, "Mars, the Bringer of War"

It had to happen sooner or later: the boys discuss John Carter. Do you, like Paul, feel that the film has been unfairly derided and that the media has latched onto its financial failure with too much…

Gobbledygeek 98,

Gobbledygeek 98, "What's Eating Royal Tenenbaum"

Hoo boy. Memorial Day musta done something to the boys; they barely remember how to run the show (if they ever knew). But they've lazed and stumbled through another episode, all for your listening pl…

Gobbledygeek 97,

Gobbledygeek 97, "War! Huh! Good God, Y'all!"

Memorial Day is next weekend, so to get in the spirit, the boys have come up with a list of the Official Gobbledygeek Top 5 War Movies. Without giving too much away, we'll say there are a couple Spie…
