Green Lantern casting, hackable cars, and fall TV

Oh, yes. Hello. I'm Megatron, and you're listening

to Altered Geek Unlimited. Excellent. Yes. and

welcome to Altered Geek Unlimited, episode 98.

I'm your host, Steve Megatron Phillips, and nobody

is joining me this week. Why, you may ask? Well,

I have been a very busy bee this week. As I stated

in the last episode of the one before, I recorded

two episodes in one night so that I had something

for this week just in case. However, you are

going to get a bonus episode that's going to

come out the beginning of the week because Which

this will air on the Monday? because I wasn't

sure and I've been messing with I've been editing

the the film project that we have for school

I'm kind of breaking down and mixing audio and

video and finding bad scenes and everything else

So in between that I've been I've been doing

that Also have been busy with Life in general

I it took me a couple days to recoup from lack

of sleep And Well, I saw a bunch of stuff that

I really wanted to talk about and unfortunately

because of the timing of this and When everything

came out I just I didn't have time this week

to really record anything so Didn't want to have

it be too dated kind of like the SDCC stuff that

came out. So I decided to record More or less

on the fly. I'm here at work actually recording

and There's nobody here in my office right now.

So it's it's kind of convenient for me to do

this Normally I wouldn't do this So if the audio

is a little off and it doesn't sound as crystal

clear as it usually does This is probably why

so without further ado let's get into the news

okay first up just so everybody knows i'm gonna

be a little bit kind of all over the place with

some of the news it's not really gonna be organized

because i i'm kind of going off of some things

that i've saw pop up and that that are kind of

interesting and It's gonna be a random grab bag

this week That being said there still will be

some some conversation in my thoughts on everything

It's not gonna. Just be a hey read the news You

know I am NOT doing that I hate that so It looks

like This has been a rumor for a while, but anyway

since they've released information about Green

Lantern core movie It's saying that obviously

Tyrese Gibson's been having meetings with Warner

Brothers, a couple of them anyway. And there's

a possibility he may be Jon Stewart. It's not

really saying one way or the other, because obviously

it's a rumored fan casting. But he says he has

actually met with Warner Brothers, and he'll

see what happens. He believes there needs to

be more black superheroes out there I think it

would be best Green Lantern and based on the

fans and support that's been around six billion

in box office receipts I feel like there's a

fan base out there waiting to see me put on this

green suit and do my thing So I would love to

confirm something today, but I can't we'll be

keep following up Honestly, I don't have a problem

either way You would probably be alright. I mean

he's he's done a lot of those military type roles

and a lot of those kind of in the lead type stuff

like that. So I mean I can see Tyrese pulling

it off. I'm not really sure how I feel one way

or the other. Honestly I would rather see them

do a John Stewart Green Lantern than necessarily

a Hal Jordan. Hal Jordan is not really my favorite.

I mean there's so many different Green Lanterns

that could go any direction but I think they're

going to have the Green Lantern Corps, it would

be nice to not just single out one and you could

have kind of a grab bag of all of them, with

some getting more of the the limelight. I personally

like Jon Stewart the best and then followed by

maybe Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner and those kind

of guys, but it's also because I grew up with

Justice League Unlimited, so Jon Stewart is like

my go -to Green Lantern at this point. So yeah,

I mean that could be something fun. I hope that

that pans out for him and he gets something in

that that realm a Little bit of funny tech stuff,

which isn't really that funny. I just I kind

of find it interesting because How high tech

our vehicles have gotten over the last I don't

know 15 years I mean, that's really when they

got Very high -tech We have of course Fiat Chrysler

is kind of running into this dilemma. They've

had to recall 1 .4 million vehicles because of

remote hacking Yeah, who would have thought that

with all the Bluetooth and all the you know the

4g and with all the computer systems are putting

in to make them like a smartphone a smart device

And this comes from Engadget. They said, Fiat

will patch 1 .4 million U .S. vehicles following

the reveal of a hacking method by Wired, the

voluntary safety recall, which I understand is

voluntary, but it should be probably mandatory,

being that somebody can hack your car and kill

you. We'll get more on to that in a minute. But

it says, which seems will come in the form of

a USB dongle, applies to vehicles equipped with

8 -4... an 8 .4 -inch touchscreen in car entertainment

systems. It's basically the deluxe edition. Affected

cars include Jeep, Grand Cherokee, Cherokees,

SUVs, Dodge Ram pickups, and many others. If

you're concerned, see the full list. The hack

makes it possible to kill the engine, remotely

activate or disable the brakes, which, how that...

is even allowed with the braking system. I can

see, yeah, okay, you can kill the engine, but

how are you allowed to cut the brakes while it's

on, like, running? And it keeps tabs on the vehicle's

location. So, full steering control is currently

being worked on. The party responsible for the

hack revealed it would publish a portion of their

exploit openly on the web to coincide with the

Black Hat Security Conference. Why that's allowed

to be even exploited and posted online for somebody

else to kind of reverse engineer, despite the

fact that there's a patch for it? is beyond me,

why they're allowing that. There's so much gray

area on these new smart cars that I'm just not

really sure why they're so gung -ho on it. The

more electronics they add to these vehicles,

don't get me wrong, I enjoy having a USB port,

I enjoy being able to control my flash drive

with all my MP3s on it from the entertainment

center. But I don't think you need to have the

extent that they have in these vehicles. There's

just too much electronics and too much exploits.

I don't know. Maybe I'm old fashioned. Maybe

I'm an old fart. I mean, I don't really know.

To me, all I want my vehicle to have anymore

is I'd be happy with the USB because then I can

charge my phone or I can have my MP3s playing.

But I love remote start. I love the... Power

window, power locks, you know, the power window,

the mirrors, you know, remote start and everything.

I mean, that to me is what matters. I really

don't care about heated seats. I don't care about

an entertainment package or, you know, the GPS,

because my phone can do that. So, I mean, there's

so much that is unneeded in vehicles today that

I just find it kind of annoying, you could say.

Anyways, back to that. Anyway, it says the company

clearly accepts that the issues are serious and

to the software exploit, nor is it aware of any

related complaints, warranty complaints, or accidents.

Again, I just don't understand how you can get

away with it cutting the brakes. I just... Like

I said, that's just beyond me. I I personally

I do not trust vehicles enough to let them drive

for me or to Make any of those kind of decisions.

So if my vehicle had all of that in it, I don't

think I'd want the vehicle I'll just get a lower

-end one But I also drive at 2005 so I don't

have anything that's special besides power lock

power window and power mirror, you know and remotes

unlock so Moving on from my soapbox there Hasbro

Is confirming a mask merchandise, which obviously

we knew they owned it and they own Just about

everything from our childhood at this point And

it only makes sense they have it because it's

basically like GI Joe and Transformers combined

in a sense, you know I Think it'd be interesting

if they revived it as a TV show But it also says

that they're going to resurrect it, you know,

the toys for some extent. It says Toyark posted

something about it that Hasbro officially revealed

it. I think it'd be kind of cool though if they

brought Mask back as a show. What do you guys

think? I mean, how much did you like Mask or

do you think it matters? Wasn't a huge fan of

it. I've seen minimal amount of it I think it

could be cool being that we can't seem to keep

a GI Joe show on TV And this is kind of in that

realm Not saying it's the same thing because

I know it's not But yeah Hasbro posted their

their brand architecture and franchise and partner

brands it has like transformers nerf my little

pony Disney stuff of varying degrees Marvel Star

Wars Jurassic Park And then it says, you know,

Challenger brands and it's got, you know, like

PlaySchool and Creo and stuff like that. And

then there are new brands that has Micronauts,

which I believe that was an 80s thing too. I

can't exactly remember. I'm pretty damn sure

I'm right though. And then Mask, it has the same

logo, so it's not looking any different. And

then they've got Action Man, which I think was

another... You know, 80s, 90s thing. But yeah,

that's kind of cool that they're bringing stuff

back. It's like that old thing that they say,

you know, everything is old is new again. Speaking

of that, Age of Ultron Blu -ray trailer is released.

Teases deleted scenes, gag reel, and Infinity

War with 45 minutes of exclusive content. Among

other things on the blu -ray DVD release which

is coming October 2nd I Cannot wait for this

come to the blu -ray because I really want to

watch it again I'm not saying it's the best Marvel

film I've seen because it's not I just saw Ant

-Man It was actually pretty damn good I know

some people are kind of love or hate with it.

I I'm not a fan of a lot of these tertiary characters

or secondary characters, even if they're primary

at one point, because I don't know anything about

them, but I still give them a shot and kind of

watch them and see what's going to go down. But

I think they did a good job with Ant -Man, kind

of segueing a little bit. I like the the 1989

kind of drop where they go a little bit into

while Hank Pym still is Ant -Man and then kind

of his retirement age and his dealings with S

.H .I .E .L .D. and you get this little nice

nod of Agent Carter being there which I was kind

of confused and then I was like oh yeah that

is her. because they aged her and they digitally

altered Michael Douglas to make him look younger.

I think the movie was really good. I wouldn't

mind seeing more of his character, and both of

them, in some capacity in the future. I enjoyed

them more than I enjoy Thor, so that says a lot.

And I actually prefer him over Hawkeye, even,

or The Hulk. Coming from a guy that's a DC fan

hardcore. I really enjoyed that film But jumping

back into Age of Ultron I'm looking forward to

that film just because I want to see the gag

reel and the deleted scenes in the Infinity War

stuff So I don't watch commentaries. I dislike

commentaries. I don't even like recording them.

I Enjoy watching when I'm I'm watching and talking

about it. Don't get me wrong. I just I don't

care for commentary tracks But everything else,

like I love special features, I love gag reels,

I love deleted scenes, I love teasers, I love

stuff like that on the discs. So, speaking of

which, I should be getting, this is kind of a

throw out there, in mid -August, or late August,

I should be getting copies of Arrow Season 3,

Flash Season 1, Gotham Season 1. and Batman Animal

Instincts which I will have written reviews for

on the website which all of them have special

features which is one thing I gotta give WB Entertainment

that they haven't been doing over the past few

years with a lot of their stuff is putting a

lot of special features, deleted scenes or any

of that kind of stuff on the discs and these

seem to have it and I can't wait to get my hands

on them to To review I just think that that would

I'll talk about it too on the show once I get

them and once I'm able to talk about them And

I'll also have the I'll have the written reviews

as well, which I'll link when it comes to that

time But anyways back to age of Ultron they they

they tease with behind -the -scenes footage of

like vision. They've got unlocked the infinity

six And then they show the mind stone they show

the space stone the reality stone the power stone

And then they show a bunch of goofy clips stuff

of characters anyway, so Yep, that's coming Moving

on to the next kind of subject there we have

DC's legends of tomorrow will be an anthology

series with standalone seasons I'm kind of wondering

if we're gonna have like a kind of like the how

the Suicide Squad or how you know Justice League

how they kind of rotate cast members every season

so it kind of gets us a chance to learn new characters

but also to kind of rotate them in and out and

then kind of test the waters I'm wondering if

that's how they're gonna go like kind of the

the almost true detective Aspect of it or if

they're gonna go Like an actual Continuation

that kind of make them like a movies like a miniseries

like and then they span time I'm not really sure

but they said this season this first one that

is Is basically like to the oceans 11 aspect

They compared it to that. They said that this

is not designed to go on forever. This season

is meant to be standalone Not like True Detective

But everybody will be continuing on this journey

the sort of central premise of time travel and

Vandal Savage is totally up for grabs It's meant

to be a season that is tightly serialized that

when it's over you can't go home again It's not

going to begin season two with us all hopping

back on the same ship and with like Let's get

Vandal! Let's get him for real this time! This

is not a traditional episodic television. Each

season is its own separate movie, which that's

what I was kind of hoping for. And it says what

we want to do is have each separate movie have

its own identity, so almost to the point where

each season was telling one big story that you

could sort of subtitle like the way you would

subtitle American Horror Story if that makes

sense. I could get behind that! Obviously that's

a different route and something original and

something that people seem to like. I'm not a

big American Horror Story fan, I know a lot of

people are, I believe Mike is too. Who's ninja

not? It's the FG -1. But it says not all of the

characters will return for the show's second

season, which again is kind of like the grab

bag they're going to kind of swap people out.

The first season is more like a caper because

it's sort of Ocean's Eleven where you have a

team of misfits, a dirty dozen that have been

sent on essentially a suicide mission. It's almost

like a family dynamic between people who can't

get along but are forced to get along because

they're stuck in this stupid time travel spaceship

and having to save the world. But if it weren't

for that they would absolutely kill each other.

Makes perfect sense. Obviously it's gonna have

White Canary, Adam... Captain Cold, Heatwave,

Professor Martin Stein, Hot Girl, and Rip Hunter

with kind of guest appearances by Flash and Green

Arrow. So I'm pumped for that show. That's something

different. I'm really looking forward to it.

Heroes Reborn digital prequel is now available.

as of today, which is Friday the 24th. It says

it's available on the new Heroes Reborn app.

I'm gonna have to download that and watch that,

so I'm prepared for next week with it. It's titled

Heroes Reborn Dark Matters. The six -episode

series is set five years after the finale of

Heroes, when the public became aware of the existence

as evolved humans, also known as EVOs. That's

so funny. In that time, evils have grown both

feared and revered, with an online community

forming around the rallying cry of this anonymous

hero, Truether, anonymous hero underscore Truether,

who seeks to counter all the lies and fear -mongering

and humanize those with extraordinary abilities.

Among those posting their personal stories is

Phoebe Frady, who's encouraged by her brother

Quinton to document her origin story, but as

Phoebe struggles to control her powers, she attracts

unwanted attention from a mysterious new company.

I'm wondering what's going to come into play

with this. And how many of the old cast are going

to show back up. I know they've already got the

Haitian, they've got the Hornrim glasses, they've

got Mohinder, they've got Parkman, they've got

Hiro, and they've got Angela Petrelli. So I'm

wondering who all is going to actually end up

coming back at some point. I would love for some

of the other ones to make cameos, but we could

probably assume that they're going to leave that

door open in case they want to come back, or

in case they can write them back in. There were

so many that were left by the end of the series

of heroes that they could be in hiding, or they

could be dead, or they could be captured. I'm

really pumped for this because my wife and I

are actually watching heroes again. We watched

it the first time. We're almost through the whole

first season, getting closer to the second. Some

of the stuff's coming back to me as I watch it.

Some of it, she doesn't remember any of it, which

is probably good. We know that fourth season

was terrible. Third season was getting there,

but it was still okay. Second season was all

over the place. But I'm looking forward to the

revival of the show. As I've stated in past weeks,

I think that this could be a really fun concept.

I just hope that it plays out well for them this

time. But I think that the because of how superhero

II TV's got now I think that it when it arrived

it was way too early And I think now is actually

the perfect time for it to be capitalizing on

this whole superhero everything so Moving on

So with the moving on, apparently, just in passing,

it looks like Hulk Hogan has been removed from

the WWE because he dropped a couple of one -liners

that are kind of something you can't really say.

He's had a rough last few years. But yeah, it

looks like he's terminated and no longer has

ties with WWE. And yeah, that's kind of crazy

because he's kind of the main face of a lot of

wrestling to a lot of generations. So I'm sure

Mike and Mike, the dueling Mikes will have something

on GeekCastRadio's... mayhem mics in the future

because I have a feeling that they're gonna they're

gonna end up talking about this once they catch

wind of it. So Brian Singer confirms there are

plans to bring the X -Men and the Fantastic Four

films universes together. Which Why they didn't

do this sooner because it probably could have

helped reinvigorate the x -men franchise years

ago and Also give the fantastic for a new film

without having to recreate an origin story or

I don't know I mean I get why they've recreated

them now because they you know everybody else

that was involved years ago don't really care

to come back and They weren't that great to begin

with But I It says that Simon Kenberg thinks

that joining the two is ill -advised since the

Fantastic Four superpowers would render less

important in a world where superpowers occur

naturally in the human population, but that doesn't

register with the executives of 20th Century

Fox, so it's up to a brain trust to bring together

the new Fantastic Four reboot and the X -Men.

But yeah, I can get behind that. Not like they

had a crossover before, I mean... It would be

nice to see all of the Marvel universe kind of

play well with each other because I think that

you can have a lot of fun with it Having a grab

bag you wouldn't necessarily have to feature

the same characters over and over and over and

over and over and over So yeah This is one that's

really close to me and my opinionated self Swat

cats revolution by tremble a brother studios

Kickstarter. I Don't normally get behind kickstarters.

Like I mean, I I know we talked about the the

one for super troopers to Which more than got

its goal? The amount of Let's just put it this

way. It's got a 30 -day goal of getting to $50

,000. What this gets you is a TV series Bible,

three scripts, character design, and concept

art. They go all the way up to, and what they're

hopeful is 1 .5 million, which is production

of a direct -to -streaming movie, 70 minutes.

They get the million, they get a production of

a five -part miniseries, episodes, 22 minutes

each. You get 200 ,000 they get a product one

new episode So each step of the way they get

something for their benchmarks It's the creators

of it that are trying to bring everything back

Which I think is awesome. I think swat cats was

such an underrated show and unfortunately didn't

I Loved it. I'd love to see it come back. That's

one of my favorite Animated series from the 90s

that I used to watch But anyways they have so

far out of their pledged 50 ,000 goal like at

least for the initial they have 37 ,000 they

get 28 days to go I'd say that they have a pretty

good chance of hitting their $50 ,000 goal or

more I would love to see this come back as a

series so if you want to find This Kickstarter

I'll have the You can go to Tremblaybrothersstudios...

brosestudios .com for information on them, but

I'll have the information in the episode post

of how to... how to donate for this anyway. I

think this is an awesome, awesome endeavor. I'd

love to see the show come back. I know it's a

lot of awesome, but not a lot of explanation

there, but it's... I enjoyed the music, I enjoyed

the casting, I enjoyed the concepts, and I loved

the art. So it's one of those things I can't

say enough how much I enjoyed it. So, jumping

into some more news we have. This was posted

on Polygon. This is kind of a toy rush here.

Hot Toys showed off its 1 -6 scale Millennium

Falcon cockpit. Toys makers bringing the entire

model of the famous Corellian Cruiser to Anacom

in Games Hong Kong 2015 this week. I think it's

awesome. It's so big that it requires multiple

people to set it up. Assembling an 18 foot by

12 foot model of the Millennium Falcon ain't

like dust and crops is what they're saying. And

then they have... The 1 -6 scale stormtroopers

and Darth Vader standing beneath it. And then

they've got some TIE fighters behind it. That

mother is huge. That is insane. And the level

of detail on this thing is just spectacular.

Blanchard and I were talking about it yesterday

because I saw it and he's like... Where would

you even put that I'm like, I don't know I'm

like I would love to I would love to get something

like that But there's no way I could get that

in my house. I don't have a room big enough to

put that Unless it's like my living room in the

basement and then we couldn't sit anywhere So

I wouldn't get one, but I think that the level

of detail in this monster is just spectacular

The funniest part about it is the article title

and it says It says the Millennium Falcon toy

is so big you might have to get out and push.

So there's that. Jumping over to Agents of S

.H .I .E .L .D. for its third season, Chloe Bennett's

Sky Daisy will be sporting a dramatic new hairstyle

because they're chopping off her locks for season

three so she can be like her comic book counterpart

Daisy Johnson aka Quake. I'm not familiar with

the character, but I don't see an issue with

it. I guess some people are having an outrage

over some of it. I don't know, but I look forward

to seeing how this plays out. Season two was

off and on again, good and not good. I'm looking

forward to seeing what they do with Colson's

hand to with the robo hand or Seeing if he has

like a transforming hand or a stark hand or something.

I don't know I think it would be cool to have

a cameo by Tony Stark giving him a new hand In

the show, but I don't see that happening Then

of course they have arrow season four Has a Kind

of unnerving amount of new cast members joining

the show obviously they're gonna have They're

gonna have white canary return to the show at

least initially To kind of Revive her for legends

of tomorrow, so should probably keep making cameos

in the show But they've got Damien dark Cast

they've got anarchy cast they got mr. Terrific

cast They're gonna have new rogues on both arrow

and flash Arrows gonna have Baron blitzkrieg

I'm not gonna go into detail on any of them because

I have no idea who most of these people are I

know who anarchy is because of the Arkham games

and the Beware the Batman animated series, but

I don't know much more than that. So yeah, there's

that. They've had, of course, for season four,

Diggle's going to get a costume. I don't understand

the significance of this, but Michael Chickless

joins Gotham in season two as the new police

chief, who's going to be at odds with Commissioner

Gordon or not Commissioner Captain Gordon or

Detective Gordon On and off, but he's gonna also

be out there kind of trying to clean up things.

I Like Michael Chiklis, so I think I think he's

fine I saw him in no ordinary family and I know

that Mike knows him from the shield but I'm kind

of I'm looking forward to seeing him him kind

of join forces over there. I think Gotham season

2 I think should Now that they've established

everything, I think they should be having the

ground running now, kind of like Arrow Season

2 did. I hope that they don't try and focus too

much on the Joker and everything else. But I

know that they're already starting the transformation

of Nigma and Bruce and all these other characters.

Should be interesting. I'm very enthusiastic

for the new seasons of the comic book shows coming

this fall. Between Gotham, Arrow, Flash, Legends

of Tomorrow, Supergirl, Heroes, all of those

I'm just extremely, extremely excited for. A

little bit of other news. They've got the female

Ghostbusters names revealed. It means nothing

to me. I could care less what they're named.

I'm just gonna look forward to seeing the movie.

I love seeing all these little... little articles

pop up of stuff and they're like oh we have one

piece of info here you go um i just that's why

i'm just kind of rambling off what the information

is rather than digging into it because rather

than waste time on trying to explain what i think

about some of those i have no opinion i'm just

trying to state the obvious um kind of going

in into something that's not even news or whatever

related uh I have gotten my superhero or I should

say my smithsonian x edx um dot org uh pop x

1 .1 the rise of superheroes and their impact

on pop culture uh certificate I am now certified

Superheroes and their impact on pop culture So

yes, you can say I know what the hell I'm talking

about now It's not that hard to get the certification

as long as you do the work I'm actually taking

the class again in August Because I really like

the class I hope that there's something new But

Again, if there's not, I'm not going to pay for

this round unless there's something I notice

different in the first two weeks, which they

give you that long to decide. So, I mean, if

there's something that looks different, I mean,

other than the fact that the original digital

artwork that they're giving out is a little bit...

It's going to be different each term that they

do this. I'm hoping the information's a little

bit updated or added to or they had some alternate

challenges, because obviously I was a part of

the initial debut class of this. I'm hoping that

the second edition has some of the kinks worked

out, but I would definitely recommend that to

anybody that's a huge into superheroes or into

pop culture and kind of wanted to know the history

and It also gives you the chance to kind of collaborate

with other people or create your own superheroes

and mythos. I've got an entire, basically, Justice

League and Legion of Doom, you could say. Not

in those exact naming strategies or terms, but

I've got enough people to fill the roles that

I've created because I only submitted two, but

I made like eight of each. So, there's that.

I'm hoping one day I can actually write like

a like a series Bible type thing and have the

characters have the names have their their origins

have the storyline have how they work you know

what what happens and I'm hoping to actually

draft something like that so that maybe I can

write a story on it and it depend on you know

what people thought too but I really like the

the universe I created it's Don't really know

of anything that it really fits into compared

to anything that I've seen I Always have these

weird far -fetched Stretched into you know doing

time travel and stuff, but mine makes more sense

than the whole Terminator thing So there's not

that confusing crap Yeah, I mean I kind of I'll

explain more about it when I get more of it figured

out but If you were gonna create your own universe

and characters like what kind of thing would

you guys do? I mean I I like doing the I would

at least start out in the future and have a time

travel thing where they end up in the past kind

of almost booster gold ish and Then the only

thing is is my character gets trapped in the

past so he kind of has to deal with He saved

the future by altering an event and rewriting

history, but in the process chasing a villain

they both end up in the past and they're both

stuck there so they have to work with modern

-day heroes and villains with also throwing in

some of their advanced tech so it's gonna it's

gonna kind of throw off the entire timeline so

I'm kind of looking forward to more playing in

that universe Just kind of interested in seeing

what other people would do if they they had that

chance or if they decided to take this class

And I'll let you guys know if I find any other

superhero ones That's kind of In this realm you

can say For not necessarily from EDX or Smithsonian,

but that are That are articulate this, and it's

kind of difficult. Brains, I'm thinking at the

same time. Other online college courses, because

I know Coursera has some. I know there's a couple

other ones that I've kind of looked up, and I'm

going to kind of toy with. There's EDX, there's

Coursera, there's UDEMY .com. Coursera and EDX

are dot orgs But they all have something in the

kind of pop culture or superhero or or something

in that realm So it's it's very interesting to

me I think in the coming weeks Yeah, I'm switching

gears again. I I'm gonna talk and I kind of want

to ask these as questions, too I Because I've

had Not quite like mental breakdowns, but in

the last like couple weeks, which is kind of

why like shows have been sporadic or I've been

very spastic in some of my thought process I'm

better now, but I have you guys been affected

by before like geeky kind of like Like mental

health issues, but not like severe like and how

did you guys kind of overcome it like I? Ended

up telling my wife because I was so depressed

and kind of just out of it that I had to tell

somebody Which I probably wouldn't have but I

was in that that moment of just I just don't

care about anything that I texted her and she

kind of got me through it, but And I find that

that helps I If I would have got home that day

that I had those issues. I probably wouldn't

have said a word and I probably would have just

been an ass So I'm probably gonna talk about

that kind of in the future at one point I don't

know when it'll be kind of a short conversation

because I don't want to dwell on on it too long,

but it is an important issue and then I have

another one that I kind of want to talk about

too is like a custom Avengers or Weird geeky

dreams or influence weird dreams influenced by

geeky things like for instance. I had one a couple

weeks ago that involved the world of Doom, which

I have that one about once a year. It's strange,

but I continue it every time I dream it. It keeps

growing. It's like a never -ending death. And

then there's... I've had Beast Wars in my geeky

dreams before. I've had Agent Coulson in the

Agents of S .H .I .E .L .D. somehow. Don't ask

me how. I don't remember now, but I should have

wrote it down. It's... But, you know, have any

of those things kind of come into play with you

guys? I... I do have a list of things that I

think next week I'm going to have more of a discussion

base because I don't really want to do, unless

there's something huge in the geeky news world.

I know that we're fresh off SDCC for the last

two weeks and there's just been stuff left and

right. I'm assuming Deadpool will be out shortly,

like officially, so Mike and I can talk about

that too. Yeah, I mean if there's anything you

guys want to bring up and have us talk about

I'd love the conversation and also if you guys

can tell me what's your favorite moments of the

show or or Basically we could have have a calling

Q &A type thing for Altered geek episode 100.

We're two episodes away That's a huge milestone.

I don't even think all things transformers hit

that but We'll find out. Yeah, I know. It's a

little long -winded this week. It's not quite

as long as last week's. I think I did pretty

well this week. It's not often I have a lot that

I really want to talk about. I do have quite

a few topics, but they're always just jumbled

around in my brain. So if there's anything that

I've mentioned that you guys would like more

explanation or like to talk more about just go

ahead and post in the comments on the website

Geekcastradio .com. Like I said, this is also

posted on alteredgeek .com. It's pretty much

verbatim of what's going to be on Geekcast Radio.

So if you just want to go there, that's fine.

But that is the alternate place that you can

look for it. It's also going to be posted on

we've been partnered with blogtalkradio .com

for several weeks. It's actually been since the

beginning of June. in maybe mid -May, I don't

know, beginning of June. But anyways, they currently

host all of our files. Yes, there is an ad, but

it's there for helping us and helping them. It's

a lot easier on us, let's put it that way, for

space issues. They've just been really gracious

with their hosting of it. That being said, that's

also another place you can listen to it. You

can listen to the show on iTunes. You can listen

to the show on Stitcher Smart Radio. Pretty much

anywhere that you've listened to it before, you

can listen to it. I will have some Altered Geek

video show revival very, very soon. I've got

some stuff I'm working on. Like some top fives

and some other stuff that I can do visually so

Look for that. I'll have that coming shortly.

I should have it about an episode or two and

throughout August and I plan to do some DVD Blu

-ray reviews on there as well as doing my typical

written so look for that and until next time

I've been Steve Megatron Phillips. You can get

a hold of me on Twitter at CP21. You can get

a hold of the show at Altered Geek. And until

next time, get altered, get geeky with the Altered

Geeks.
