About this Episode

Steve Phillips tests Windows 10 on his work PC and gives his initial impressions of the new operating system, comparing it to Windows 7 and 8. He discusses the new start menu design, Microsoft Edge browser, and overall ease of transition. The episode also covers summer geek culture news including Ghostbusters casting, Arrow and Flash updates, Batman v Superman details, Marvel Netflix series plans, and a look at Adam Sandler's fading relevance in Hollywood. Steve also previews changes coming to Altered Geek after episode 100.

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

to Altered Geek Unlimited. Excellent. Yes. And

welcome to Altered Geek Unlimited episode 99.

I'm your host Steve Megatron Phillips, and I

am again running solo this week. Yeah, big reason

for that is I just... I'm recording at work on

my break. So I don't have access to any of my

equipment. I can't use Skype. It's pretty much

a lonely world after all. So what has been new

over the last week? Well, there's been plenty

obviously there was all the stuff. I covered

in alter geek last week of course I Think one

of the biggest news things to kind of pop up

this week has been the fact that Windows 10 Arrived

for the public just a few days ago I Will say

this without a shadow of a doubt If you have

Windows 7 or 8, it's not going to be much different

other than you'll have a new start menu interface

which has like this little kind of a... it almost

has like an Xbox -ish vibe to the start menu

with a kind of a grid interface of like a Windows

phone for the start menu, if that makes any sense.

It's got, when you click the little start icon,

yeah sorry for getting right into the heavy here.

I just installed it on this PC here at work to

test it out before I massacre my machines at

home. I wanted to know if it was going to foobar

my machine or not, because at least here I can

fix it. And at home I didn't want to lose all

my stuff, whereas here it didn't really matter,

don't have much on it. I was going to, actually

last night I was going to download Windows 10

on my Windows 8 .1 machine but it was taking

too long so I cancelled it and I think it has

to do with the server load. I was gonna put it

on my Windows 7 machine but I wanted to wait.

But I installed it on my PC at work and all of

my little shortcuts, all of my icons, all of

my settings, everything imported over. Just the

operating system has been completely changed.

You know, of course they give it some new looks,

some new icons, some new features. They give

it a new look in the windows and the settings.

I think it's a lot easier to navigate than Windows

8. I had a hell of a time trying to figure that

out the first time I ever touched it and I still

have a hard time. And I'm in IT. So, Windows

10... And again, I'm not one of those kind of

like Microsoft fanboys. I just I don't like Apple

so to me. It's the lesser of two evils And I've

always had a Microsoft machine, so it's what

I know But anyways when you click on the start

button it loads up and has your name It shows

most used like it did before on the left And

then it's got like your personal folder, file

explorer, settings, power, and then all apps,

which is your all programs. And then it's got

new, which allows you to load something else.

And then on your right side, it's got two different

setups. I've customized mine already. I'm not

sure what it says at the top anymore or the other

one, but it's got two like little, basically

you can create category folders in this start

menu. that they're full blown. You can change

the sizes. You can right click on them to unpin

them from the start menu, resize them to be small,

medium, large, or wide. You can drag them all

around however you see fit. Like I have Cortana

on the top left. I have my Windows Live Mail.

I have the Weather app thing that's on there.

I have Internet Explorer, which... Still let

you use it in Windows 10, but it's obsolete technology.

So Microsoft Edge browser, I have to say, is

actually a welcome improvement. I like to think

of it as what IE should have done probably five

years ago, which is kind of adapt the Firefox

-ish and Chrome kind of aesthetics. It's got

a nice mixture of the two. Like I truly hate

Chrome's look and like design and setup and everything.

It confuses the hell out of me. To me it's a

lot, they've simplified Internet Explorer into

this Microsoft Edge so well that I actually would

probably use this more so. I still use Firefox,

but that's because I like it better. But the

Microsoft Edge allows you to use HTML5. So that

helps massively with the YouTube you don't even

need flash player So which in this day and age

you don't need flash, and there's too many vulnerabilities

and then I have my multimedia category below

that and I have like my Adobe products my Microsoft

office stuff my one drive my media player So

I mean it's it's all the stuff that I'd normally

get to pretty quickly Moving on to the other

part of the start menu The right -hand side with

like the little icons and the clock and the date

and the show desktop, that's all the same. The

only difference is like when you click on the

speaker instead of vertical, it's horizontal.

Your icons on your taskbar, they still show the

little previews when you hover over them. They

show you with a little underline of a different

color of what programs are running currently.

And they're all you know it's pinning basically

if you've used Windows 7 or 8 On the taskbar

and that kind of stuff. It's basically the same

thing and then they have like your search bar

Next to the start button in between that and

the icons so you can actually search the web

or windows from right there I have to say that

it's probably a Smart choice to actually switch

at this point Because really, there's not that

much different in this operating system that

wasn't there before, other than some aesthetic

changes. I mean, you still go to your properties.

Everything is still set up just like it would

have been before. So to me, it's almost a no

-brainer. Think everybody's still caught up and

worried about it because you hear all these tech

experts going well You should wait because they're

gonna have this patch or they're gonna wait because

they're gonna have this or or you don't know

how it's gonna work with this I've used all my

Adobe products already. I've used all my software.

I've tried a couple games It all works. Yeah,

I'm gonna install it on both my machines when

I get home and Nothing I didn't lose anything

and if you hate it it creates a Windows dot old

folder and you can actually go to your your control

panel and You can actually remove it. You can

uninstall Windows 10 and go back to your original

operating system I do know that there is a 30

-day window on that So if you don't like it,

you better hate it within the first 30 days or

else you're stuck with 10 Unless you have the

original disk or the recovery CD or whatever,

which I don't think they give anymore that being

said I have had one issue and I don't know if

it's isolated. I don't know if it's because I

Have like I have this huge huge library of fonts

I I collect them because I do so much graphic

design and so much stuff that I like to do that

it's I Just have a lot of them The only issue

I've had and I haven't rebooted since I booted

back into Windows 10 from 7 after it installed

And it may correct itself. I don't know I'll

post in the comments if it does It now allows

you to The problem I'm having is only with the

Microsoft Edge and the Internet Explorer browser

is certain web pages are showing up with a rant

like a font that Is in my font directory and

it's kind of hard to read But Firefox doesn't

have that issue. So I'm not quite sure what caused

that to happen or why it happened. But I'm optimistic

that I'll either A, figure it out or B, I'll

find something that knows. So yeah, that's that.

Kind of going on a little bit of other stuff.

What did you guys think about my episode last

week? I asked a lot of different questions. I

kind of brought up some topic ideas that we could

do Just kind of wondering on that because I think

it'd be fun to talk about some things other than

kind of geeky news or Stuff like that So yeah,

just let me know on that we'll be right back

after this break now Okay, we're back So, as

you guys know, I like YouTube videos. I have

a fun time watching them. I like kind of discovering

these funny ones that kind of pop up all over

the place. One I just discovered just a little

bit ago, and it was posted on the Huffington

Post. Somebody edited Chris Farley into the new

Mission Impossible trailer, replacing anything

with Tom Cruise with Farley. It's actually pretty

damn good. Taking a lot from like Tommy Boy and

Black Sheep and kind of mixing it together in

there. It fits really well actually. Any only

time will tell if they actually superimpose them

in something lighter. So, there was a... I kind

of was watching this anyway. There was... Stephen

ML was posting a lot of funny stuff the other

night because people were kind of going back

and forth about, you know, how Arrow is going

to change and, you know, the green arrow and

everything else and He People were like, oh you're

gonna hit when are you gonna get the goatee and

get the the the kind of Robin Hoodish hat and

He says it'll never happen You know the goatee

and everything else and This is if we're lucky

enough to go to six seasons, I'll show up the

first day looking like this guy. And then, of

course, you know, he's got the stupid crap with

Stardust, the guy from WWE, which I think is

ridiculous. I don't know why that's even a thing.

Not WWE, but the Stardust thing. I think it's

just stupid. Of course, we've also been getting

little splinters of Batman versus Superman images

kind of popping up all over the place lately.

From Empire magazine they got One cover with

Batman and Superman on it. They got another cover

with Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent The the Batman

one Bruce Wayne is Gotham's protector or crazy

vigilante and then Clark Kent it says world savior

or alien tyrant I Don't know. It's it's kind

of neat seeing the stuff kind of pop up We've

only waited you know a couple years for this

stuff, so it's kind of nice seeing that You know

you go that direction So they are making an All

-male Ghostbusters movie Again Not with the original

cast which I'm fine with Truthfully, I think

it'd be cool if they had these two parallel Ghostbusters

films you know the all -male one and all -female

one and then they join forces and then you just

have a whole you know you have you have the like

basically a uh i think it would be cool to have

that and have the original ghostbusters that

are still among us and kind of mix them together

as like a um expendables type movie with ghostbusters

just because it would be purely absurd Because

let's put it this way these movies they don't

They're remaking them all. I mean, so it they

don't hold the same Gravitas that they used to

granted. I think that this the female one's going

to be pretty good Just because of who they got

in it and who's directing it So in that guy knows

how to do a lot of stuff with those people. So

it's It should be good anyway, but the all -male

one is kind of funny that now it's going to be

in the same universe I'm not sure how this is

going to turn out, but the screenwriter and the

director of Ghostbusters, the female one, said

that they want to do a movie of it, but they

can't tell really a lot about it. I think it

would be neat if they had all of that kind of

come out to play. I'm not really sure who's going

to be in it. Some people are screaming for like

Chris Pratt and Channing Tatum, which I don't

really want to see either one of them in one

of those I'd rather just see them get kind of

more unknowns or more like some of the male players

from Saturday Night Live Because to me I think

that having more the Saturday Night Live actor

vibe to it like All of them, but Melissa McCarthy

were on Saturday Night Live either currently

or were on it For the female one and the original

Ghostbusters. They were all on Saturday Night

Live so If you kind of go with that route They've

got enough for the male players that they could

do that again And then if they connected the

original guys to it you could actually have a

pretty cool Throw together kind of callback movie

or cameos of the original guys with them all

in the same universe You know just having them

retired Don't know I think it'd be kind of cool

never know it's The time will tell it's it I

would be happy if they did that though So Fuller

House Not that many people care about this show.

I've seen a lot of comments going either way

and saying that uh They don't really care I I

think it would be neat to see... Well, obviously

they're gonna have all the original cast back,

other than the Olsen twins. It would be funny

if they just cast Elizabeth Olsen from Age of

Ultron and just had her replace Michelle Tanner.

Just be funny that way. And they did cast a wife

for Danny Tanner on there, so that's kind of

neat. Bear with me as I jump topics again. There's

quite a diff... differing jump around in this

episode, unfortunately for you. So with the Suicide

Squad, they're trying to say that now Batman

is the one that locked them all up. No surprise

there, but they're saying that being that we're

seeing Batman being basically 45, 46. He's been

Batman for 20 years, all the history there. You

know, the fact that there's Robin there. And

then, so yeah, they're just saying more or less

that he, they're just trying to click bait you

into it. So that's basically what it is. He's

locked up all of Task Force X. So yeah, that's

that's why that's whole big deal. Chris Pine

is Steve Trevor in Wonder Woman. He signed on

to play that Basically like the original rumor

portrayed it Again, I don't know much about the

character so it doesn't faze me one iota. I don't

care either way But I look I mean I look I look

forward to seeing how all of this turns out in

the DC universe Netflix is apparently going to

get more Marvel series Punisher could also be

one of the spin -offs of Daredevil Which would

probably be smart on their point because I don't

think the films went over all that well I mean

I could be wrong I know people like the films

don't be wrong, but I don't think they went over

all that well, you know kind of in the same vein

of Ghost Rider and stuff like that, which I wouldn't

be surprised if that made a jump in here somewhere

in the future. Jumping over to the DC realm again,

we have Hawkman coming to Flash and Arrow. It

says before he appears in the spinoff, DC's Legends

of Tomorrow, which I don't think I remember seeing

that Hawkman was going to be a part of it, but

I could be wrong. It's been a little bit, so

maybe that's true. It says he's going to be charismatic

and wise beyond his years, natural -born leader

with an abundance of charm and confidence because

he's 5 ,000 years old. It says he'll retain memories

from his many resurrections on like Hawt and

Roe who will have no memory of her past lives

or even Hawkman when the pair first meet. It

says that he's going to show up Really quick

into the the beginning of the season Just not

saying where I Have no problem with it It's kind

of funny though. They're bringing this wasn't

this character in smallville to just like arrow

and so on so I Would rather see it a green arrow

or not green arrow green lantern jump on here

and in night wing rather than see Like Hawkman

hot girl kind of stuff, but that's just me personally

And then of course there's I'm Game Informer

they have the readers have spoken and selected

the best version of Batman as if there was any

doubt in my mind who was going to win this we

have Let me go over the list of Batman you have

the animated series Batman Dark Knight returns

Christian Bale You have the Arkham Asylum games

you have Lego Batman you have Adam West Batman

you have Tim or Michael Keaton Batman you have

Tim sales Batman and you have Gotham by Gaslight's

Batman Let's take a gander at who won and it's

not even like a close contest here It's pretty

fair that Kevin Conray's Batman won For the animated

series like specifically he has like 50 % of

the votes like just smack down the middle Which

I didn't even see it as a contest The funny thing

is, is the Arkham Asylum series is the next smaller

piece of the pie. And it's like, I would say

probably, probably about a quarter of what's

left of the other side is that. So that means

that Kevin Conroy has about two thirds of the

pie for being Batman and being the number one

Batman at that. Followed closely behind We have

the Christian Bale Batman and then they go to

Lego Batman or no, I'm sorry Michael Keaton Batman

and then Lego Batman which is also tied with

the 60s Batman. It's it's actually kind of funny

though If they don't get him for the killing

joke, there's just a travesty I hope that they

get that done soon. I know that's coming out

next year, but I hope that they reveal it since

Mark Hamill is the joker in it, as if there was

any doubt in my mind what was going on there.

AT &T is just getting the okay to buy up DirecTV.

The FCC approved AT &T's $48 .5 billion purchase

of DirecTV, making them the second biggest cell

carrier and officially merging with the biggest

satellite TV provider. Which, they've been selling

this stuff for years anyway. It was kind of like

the logical point. I mean, they've been kind

of outsourcing that for years. So, to have them

do this, it only made sense. So as a part of

the the merger and the net neutrality and all

that kind of stuff They must expand their fiber

optic broadband service to an additional 12 .5

million customers Since merging eases the incentive

to expand its aggressively It's also Says that

The conditions too is that the hybrid won't be

able to throttle things like Netflix or play

sketchy data caps on people who love to stream.

It says recognizing that AT &T is the only major

ISP that applies data caps across the board to

all of its fixed broadband customers and this

merger increases the incentives of AT &T Direct

TV. to use strategies that limit consumers access

to online video distribution services in order

to favor its own video services. The commission

requires AT &T Direct TV as a condition of this

merger to refrain from imposing discriminatory

usage -based allowances or other discriminatory

retail terms in con. So it also has to offer

in their broadband to low -income consumers at

discounted rates and service Certain schools

and libraries a concession AT &T offered to help

sweeten the merger with regulators Obviously

it worked so Well looks like you're gonna get

the option for satellite TV AT &T and customers

so way to go I have them for their cell phone

service, and I have no intention of going to

their internet because Comcast is faster even

though they are the bastards from hell This is

something that I like to speak about only because

There's such a freaking hatred for it Adam Sandler

movies Obviously, he's just come out with a new

one in pixels which I Haven't seen it yet. I

don't know. I mean, obviously it's gonna be the

same kind of you know Grab bag that he's been

doing for the last 10 years Honestly, I don't

think he's had a really good movie since click

Another reason that I thought about doing this

was because I watched the movie fights on screen

junkies and I love that channel, but So I'm listening

to their fight of Adam Sandler and I'm sitting

there and John Bailey I think picked Anyways,

one of them picked Jack and Jill. Oh, he picked

little Nicky. The other guy picked, Hal Rodnick

picked Jack and Jill. And Allison Hyslip picked

Click. But she based it off the trailer, so she's

never actually seen it. Click was one of the

few that actually kind of evolved Adam Sandler

in a sense. Like it gave him some of that you

know, classic Sandler moments with the old Doyles

and stuff like that, but it kind of gave him

some of his slapstick, but it also kind of made

him evolve a little bit in the story, kind of

showing that family is kind of number one. And

when I saw that whole conversation, just because

I think that part of it should have been disqualified

just because she hadn't seen the damn movie,

and I'm like... Adam Sandler fan. Wouldn't say

I'm a fanatic or anything. I just, I really enjoy

his movies. But I don't expect much. It's the

same reason I go into Jim Carrey movies. I don't

expect much. But Jim Carrey was relevant in the

90s. Other than his serious stuff he's done in

the 2000s. Anything he's done comedic in the

2000s has been crap. Adam Sandler has had a couple

of bad ones here or there. I... And I have to

agree with this article, it's on variety. It

says that he did the cobbler, which wasn't very

good, but it wasn't bad either. Blended, which

had Drew Barrymore in there with him, I thought

was terrible. And That's My Boy, I thought was

just as terrible. Jack and Jill, I thought was

terrible. Grown Ups and Grown Ups 2, I was fine

with those. I understood that they weren't really

grown up, but it was him basically... It's like

them getting it to be together as grown -ups

like as if they were from you know still in Saturday

Night Live And they've all grown apart, and then

they're all coming back together You know that's

kind of what I saw it as so it kind of made sense

to me So I didn't really I didn't mind either

one of those even though the second one wasn't

needed Hotel Transylvania obviously that's a

good film. That's you know more kid -friendly

and everything so that I don't have a problem

with But it says that his you know Career went

from like four billion in ticket sales total

to nothing which is pretty true because pixels

I don't think is doing all that hot and It's

the same kind of grab bag kind of stuff. I don't

necessarily think that they should have had control

over it. I Like the concept. I'm just not sure

that they had the right cast but yet again I

haven't seen it so I can't really judge it and

I'm not going to judge it because it's not it's

not fair to the movie I'd be curious to hear

what you guys have to say about Pixels if you've

already seen it. I've seen the short film that's

based off of, loosely based off of, but I don't

know much more than that and what's in the Adam

Sandler trailers. But some of the key top five

reasons they bring up that he's no longer relevant

or more so not a movie star is he aged out of

his material. being that he was 48 and he's still

trying to play like 90s comedy. Um, which until

I read this article, it used to piss me off that

people would sit there and nitpick Adam Sandler,

uh, because I enjoyed his stuff. But then like

over the last, I don't know, five years, it could

be because I'm a parent now and I, I don't know,

I'm getting older. So a lot of stuff's just not

hitting the same nerve it used to. Like I like

my 90s comedies. I like my 80s stuff. i like

those films for what they were but when they

try and revisit or try and use the same formula

now i just kind of pan it so i guess it's kind

of both on my aging and uh growing up and the

fact that they aren't which is odd to me um but

it never really put it in perspective to me until

i read this article because um you know his his

hits were like billy madison waterboy big daddy

deeds uh click um grown -ups you know so Those

were all like pretty much is like good movies

like I know some people like funny people I just

I didn't like it, but I don't like half a towel

So it doesn't it doesn't jive with me all that

well, and then he did like the indie film men

willman and children I didn't see it because

I just I didn't It didn't strike me as something.

I'd really care about punk drunk love never seen

it. Don't really care to see it Again like I

don't really look for Samler for like his like

serious like dark or deep serious stuff Don't

mind if it's like somewhat serious, but I don't

really want him to be All in but I don't want

her to be a complete tool either and everything

is in so again whatever They say that he's not

edgy which obviously he was and that's my boy

and funny people But they didn't really you know

again people are not going with that whole vibe

They're knocking him also because he needs new

friends they put because he always has the same

people You know basically Steve Buscemi Rob Schneider

David Spade nor McDonald Kevin James etc in all

of his films pretty much all of them And then

they also say that one of his underrated go just

go with it Which I forgot about until it mentioned

it that was pretty good. That was pretty good

And then the fact that he doesn't really talk

to the press it says he hates the press and He's

not as media -friendly and says that he's not

even trying for the other one, you know, because

he did Spanglish and stuff like that, which I

saw Spanglish and I saw the other one Rain Over

Me, which was good, too, and I liked those, but

they're not something I watch all the time. And

then I've heard, of course, all the bad publicity

with Ridiculous 6, which... It's probably gonna

be another one of his stupid ass comedies not

gonna lie, but it's probably not gonna be any

dumber than the you know Thousand ways to die

in the West or whatever that Seth MacFarlane

did I don't see it being much different so If

people like that, I'm sure they'll like ridiculous

six gonna be the same stupid ass concept so Sorry,

but so I mean it's it's not It's not entirely

bad. I like Sandler, but I do agree. He needs

to kind of move on to different things, and Lord

knows that he's not trying anymore. He's basically

already admitted that he goes and shoots movies

in locations that he wants to go on vacation

with his family, and so that's what he does.

Example, Hawaii, Africa. Yeah, just stuff like

that. Stuff that he can get the studio to pay

for because he's shooting a movie. Off that soapbox.

That's been a fun word over the last few days.

So apparently, I don't know if this is legit

or not, it's on Extreme Tech. They say that scientists

discover a genetic pathway responsible for aging.

Which means we could probably live into the hundreds.

It's owned by Zip Davis, so I'll give it credit

But it says that You know obviously they're trying

to fight death and it says Google and synthetic

genomics have waded into the life extension business

Bringing their millions of dollars in funding

They've made numerous discoveries They're trying

to find an actual cure to aging but... we would

die of starvation if we didn't die off eventually.

I mean, there's only so much you can do in your

lifetime where it's just... you're done. I wouldn't

mind living to be 150. I wouldn't say that I

wouldn't, because that would be cool. Getting

to see a whole new generation of things that

didn't exist, you know. All those young whippersnappers

have this and I didn't when I was a boy. We had

Nintendo League get to go into the holodeck.

So, yeah, I would love to see that, but let's

face it, I'm probably not gonna live that long

and drink too much Coke. Eats away at my innards

and my teeth. Which my wife also pointed out

in an article to me about that today, that it

destroys you from the inside. I believe it. But

anyways, they used a worm of some kind to kind

of... Find this magical switch and it's a single

genetic pathway that controls the aging process

And then they discovered that humans have the

same switch so they believe that with the research

in that they can apply it to humankind and animals

and Basically bring the switch off. They say

basically when you hit puberty your body starts

to die Or you hit to your full adult life, you

know, look at like 20 and then you just go downhill

from there. So that's all they're saying with

that. I think it'd be cool if they could figure

it out. I'm sure that there'll be so many innovations

over the next 20 years on that that it'll be

just different in general. So I wanted to talk

a couple things about the website. And when I

mention that, I mean, I've changed the comment

section at a request of some people, and I think

that this will be more beneficial to people in

general. You can now post your, basically like

when you're on social media, Tumblr, Twitter,

whatever, you can express yourself with not only

text, You now have the ability to post like YouTube

videos to kind of reference something. You can

use a meme, you can post an image. It will all

now show up in the comment section. There is

no special thing that you have to do. It's all

in there. The ability is there. I did it on last

week's episode, or I should say Monday's episode,

where I talked about the SWAT cats and then I

posted the intro to the show. In there. I've

always had the capability, but I unlocked it

so that others could do it too because I have

a pretty good spam filter in there I shouldn't

have to worry about it And it would be fun for

everybody else to do so So yeah, you guys go

ahead and have fun in there try it out see what

you like what you don't like We're currently

working on some stuff behind the scenes to hopefully

better the content of the website of our publications

of everything in general I am still in the process

of editing my school project For for the short

film that we're shooting or done shooting actually

we just finished that this week So now I get

to synchronize all the audio the video it's very

tedious, but once we get into Once we get into

the the the editing stage of it the beginning

of the week it should be a lot more fun Because

we'll get to actually see this thing to put together

I will say already have like a minute and a half

of bloopers Which I'll probably put out after

the fact Because they're out of context you don't

know what's going on You don't know what place

they are where they take place in the movie.

It's it's kind of fun So yeah, that's That's

what I've been working on I'm also Like I said,

I'm trying to work on some some side podcast

projects video podcast projects I'm kind of trying

out I'm trying to plan it out before I do them

because I'd like to I'd like to have guests on

the show. I'd like to have More interactions.

I'd like to be able to pull in like phone calls.

I'd like I'd like it to be a lot more interactive

than it currently is because honestly I think

it would be great to have one of you guys on

the show to bounce stuff off of sometimes and

you know you bring your own topic and we could

even do you know even if it's a limited time

do like 20 minutes or something it could still

be something different because we could get a

little panel you know and try and set up some

hosts that will go with us and kind of go on

this journey to discuss geekdom. Or something

that matters to you. I mean I I would find that

interesting because Don't get me wrong like all

of the hosts I've recorded with are awesome in

every way But I pretty much know the responses

that I'm gonna get And I'm not sure if you know

that either But like I I'm not knocking anybody

at all because I love recording with everybody

and they're all going to be back on the show

eventually in different capacities even if I

kind of split things up a little bit. And this

is the last episode before we hit the Epic 100.

So please get in your comments, your questions.

I want it to be basically a giant Q &A. Ask anything.

Bring up whatever you want, whatever you feel

like. Tell what you've liked about the show,

what you haven't liked about the show. Everything

is an open board for episode 100. I'm not going

to talk about any of the geek pop culture, news,

nothing. It's going to be just kind of a giant

grab bag. I'm going to go back to some old episodes,

look through the comments. I'm going to do a

little bit of research on them so I know what

I'm preparing for. So if you have anything, post

it in this episode under the comments section

on GeekCastRadio .com and let me know. And if

you don't want to post it there, you can always

contact me on Twitter at scp21 or at altergeek

and I will respond on either one. This is the

first show that I've done almost every episode

and actually hit 100. Like Geekcast Radio hasn't

hit 100, The Beast Unleashed didn't hit 100.

All Things Transformers would have hit 100 if

I didn't reboot it. It would have been well over

100 when I had version 2 .0 end, but I rebooted

it for some strange reason. I think it was to

give it a fresh start. But when I reboot this

show, yes I am rebooting the show, I'm going

to give it a facelift. Basically like the Windows

7 to Windows 10. The core will be there, but

it's going to have a new style, a new look. I

think that over the last year, some of it I've

actually prepared for, and some of it I haven't.

And it depends on the week. You'll most likely

know. I've been pretty prepared the last few

weeks. I'm going to have segments. It's going

to go back to a little bit more of the beginning

of the show, how it was in the original days.

I'm going to do less. Less is more, kind of converse

on it. I'm open to suggestions of little segments,

but I do have some in mind that I think would

be kind of cool to throw in there. But I do plan

on collaborating with other podcasters and having

them on the show, so look forward to that as

well. I've got a couple little pocket segments

that I could do as other shows, but they'll fit

better all in this one hour episode of the show

from now on. So with that, I really don't have

anything else to bring up without rambling on

forever. I know that, and I just got my superhero

certificate, which is great. I know I mentioned

it before, but I'm pumped. It's it's really cool.

I like the art that gets along with it. I'll

when I do a YouTube video Shortly, I will have

that displayed in there as well It's been really

cool I'm gonna do it again shortly to and in

August I'm also going to have as I mentioned

before I'm going to have Some review products

coming to me short in the next couple weeks so

that'll be really cool and I'll talk about that

on the show and I'll have them in the reviews

and be sure to check all that out and So again

check the website leave me comments leave leave

anything you want to you want to tell me about

the show or You know how certain things we may

have talked about may have revived some some

of your inner geekdom So until next time get

altered get geeky with the Alternate Geeks. See

you next time.
