After that, Ukraine opening up holiday tours in Chernobyl, a Spanish Fashion brand have designed the Smart Shirt 3.0, Ecuador ups the stakes in the Weird Ice-cream stakes and Andy Serkis has his most challenging role ever On that last one, watch the advert in all its squinty glory here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcaAeDrOwI8  If you like the podcast, send us some support by throwing us a few pounds a month on PATREON.

We mention on this week's show that the Axolotl is the cutest creature on the planet, controversial we know, but with the episode post we present all our key evidence. This week on the Geek Show we have Pure Nintendo Filth that gives us our first bit of essential 'bleep' of our 300+ episode run. Also on the show we talk about Game of Thrones Cash-ins Plans; Amazon's launches Alexa Answers to crowdsource answers that Alexa doesn't already have; Chinese AI powered face swap APP being too powerful. MIT have created a colour changing ink; German city wants proof that don't exists; and lastly, Doom Meat Vodka. That last one has gave us our favourite game ever, tune in to find out what it is.

The Geek Show returns once again to dip its toes in pop culture, science and technology news, and as usual things take a turn for the weird. The big story this week is the Sony-Marvel divorce - which basically means no more Spider-Man in the MCU after the current plans are finished. After that we discover a potential fourth Matrix movie, using goats to prevent forest fires, fossils of comically large birds in New Zealand, Youtube actually admitting to a mistake, robotic exo-shorts, autonomous self-riding bicycles, possibly radioactive vodka, and a story that proves that while the British are just as weird as the rest of the world.

After a short break between episodes (on account of one of the hosts moving house), The Geek Show returns for our regular, bi-monthly look at the weird and crusty outer layer of science and technology news with a podcasting taste that really shouldn't be licked. Like that trailer for Cats. Yikes .... Anyway, anthropomorphism seems to be the order of the day as a collaboration of international scientists in China claim to have created hybridised monkey-human embryos, while the Japanese Science Ministry is all for the creation of "humanimals" ... we won't get into that particular discussion though. In other news, McDonald's new environmentally-friendly paper straws are apparently not recyclable at the moment, Ebay have filed a lawsuit against Amazon for trying to steal sellers, mobile phone company Vivo is touting an all-screen smartphone, a UK data science company has developed a new AI program for bars and pubs, a woman was arrested for making counterfeit money on an inkjet printer, a man in Siberia is suing a psychic firm for failing to bring back his estranged wife, researchers in Japan have created a wearable quasi-prehensile tail for humans, and a Malaysian goat has become gone viral because it looks like a K-Pop star. There's lots of fun for all the family on this episode of The Geek Show.

Everyone's favourite magnificently moustachioed news podcast returns with more strange tales from the realms of science, technology and entertainment, and this episode we're starting with Huawei's claims about their new operating system.   In other news, we get our first look at the live-action version of Disney's Mulan, legendary anime movie Akira gets a TV-based follow-up series, Netflix decide to adapt the video game Cuphead, Mozilla are releasing a premium version of Firefox and also get nominated as internet villains, an Indonesian man names his son Google, and we do our own version of “When Birds Attack”.

We've been away for a little while because of E3 (check out our coverage on our YouTube channel, and don't forget to subscribe while you are there), but we won't dwell on that because things other than video games have been happening in the world. So, kicking things off this week is the reaction of Marvel fans to the company's mysterious Twitter countdown and subsequent reveal, before we move on to a gang used the identity of a French minister to steal $90 million in a Mission Impossible-style scam. In other news, Facebook are launching a digital currency, Huawei apparently have their own operating system already in development, a Japanese technology company have created a virtual male "influencer", a Norwegian city wants to do away with time, a new start-up wants pogo sticks to be the new mode of transport, a Brazilian pet shop chain has created facial recognition for dogs, Dutch police have are offering samples of a special perfume to the public in an effort to fight crime, and a Japanese clothing company has developed a t-shirt with inflatable muscles to be worn under other clothes.

After establishing our status as award-winning swimmers (25 metres), The Geek Show returns for another dip in the shallower end of science and technology news, and kicking things off this week is the backlash against the poorly-written final season of Game of Thrones, which has culminated in a petition for the entirety of the 8th season to be rewritten (so that spoiler insurance policy is probably null and void). In other news, the horror movie franchise SAW is getting a reboot, Google join the U.S. assault on Huawei, Amazon want to turn warehouse work into a game, a scientist is calling for a re-branding of wasps, a certain time-travelling movie has been re-imagined as a stage musical, researchers want to find out why coffee makes you poo, Tamagotchi has evolved, professional quarrellers for hire, and the auction of a bizarre art project.

After a slightly extended break the weirdly funny stain on the wallpaper of technology and science news podcasts returns to deface your walls.  This week the Robs kick things off with a look at the rather disturbing trailer for the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie. In other news, Facebook finally invite journalists into their European "War Room", Microsoft revives the paper clip in a new form with Ideas, a virtual presence device for police traffic stops in the U.S., six packs with abdominal etching, protests by proxy, the Indian army's Yeti stories, the noodle-ish rewards of studying, and the world's first heavy metal knitting championship.  If you like the podcast, send us some support by throwing us a few pounds a month on PATREON.

The Internet's goofiest science and technology podcast returns with the two Robs (or is it Rob and Bruce P. Gigabyte?), taking another little stroll on the wilder and sometimes wackier side of the news. This week we're kicking things off with the big astronomy news, which is the first real "photograph" of an actual black hole! After that things get a bit more technical with plans for an independent internet watchdog, YouTube jumping on the "chose your own adventure" bandwagon, China declaring "war" on the mining of crypto-currencies for environmental reasons, the discovery of a new dinosaur, Russian Game of Thrones experiments, a rather wonderful report from the Russian Ministry of Defence, Elon Musk's rap song and and more ...

The mold that just won't shift of science and technology podcasts returns for another episode, so welcome to the latest edition of The Geek Show! Kicking things off this week is Google's announcement of their new video games streaming platform called Stadia - which may or may not be a game-changer (pardon the pun). In other news, a Spanish poll suggests that people would rather vote for an artificial intelligence rather than a human politician, a Japanese tech start-up claims they've created a "Minority Report"-style A.I. (for real), it's apparently very easy to fool artificial intelligence, new research suggests that the human brain is able to respond to the earth's magnetic field, Netflix plan more chose your own adventure content, a university professor in China gave his students a controversial social media test, a religion founded by a taxi driver in the 1950s claims to have prevented several global calamities, and finally, a Japanese company created a device to ... well ... just listen and you'll find out.   So until next time ... the truth is out there (but you'll probably be shocked and appalled when you find out what it is). **If you like the podcast, send us some support by throwing us a few pounds a month on [PATREON](http://www.patreon.com/thegeekshow).

We're back for another edition of the scratch and sniff podcast of science and technology news that is The Geek Show! Kicking things off this week, we have an update on the seemingly ongoing saga about Britain's National Health Service and fax machines. After that we bid a fond farewell to NASA's Opportunity Rover - which has finally deactivated and thus ended its mission on Mars after 14 years - before we take a look at the continued attempts to clean up the junk in the Earth's orbit. In other news, OpenAI reveal a text generator that they deem "too dangerous" for release, YouTube is being blamed for the rise in the number of people who believe the world is flat, Project Deep Squeak could give us some insight into the thoughts of rodents, there's an app for dating among cows and bulls, and yet another Japanese company has embarked on some weird escapades.  It's a strange world. **If you like the podcast, send us some support by visiting [The Geek Show](http://thegeekshow.co.uk) and clicking on [The Geek Shop](http://thegeekshow.co.uk/thegeekshop) tab.

Max and The Geek Show are friends! The Robs return dip their toes into the paddling pool of science, technology and geek news to bring you the tastiest nougat (because juiciest nuggets just sounds wrong), and first up this week is the new trailer for TV series spinoff of Taika Waititi's vampire mockumentary What We Do In The Shadows. There's also big things happening in science as a team of researchers has found a way to vocalise brainwaves - a breakthrough that could give immense hope to people who are unable to talk. In other news, it's possible to send secret audio messages with lasers, Facebook are rolling out the ability to "unsend" messages, a spiky new dinosaur has been discovered, a battery manufacturer is about to release some phones, a new dating app promises perfect partners through DNA matches, a treadmill for cats (you read that right), and the Thought Box. That last one proves it's definitely a weird world out there!  **If you like the podcast, send us some support by visiting [The Geek Show](http://thegeekshow.co.uk) and clicking on [The Geek Shop](http://thegeekshow.co.uk/thegeekshop/) tab.

If you thought Furbies were creepy, then wait till you meet the Ulo Owls as we kick off a new year, a new series of The Geek Show, and at some point during 2019 our 9th birthday (crazy isn't it?), with a look at some of the stranger devices being showcased at this year's Consumer Electronics Show.  In other news there's a company that will examine dog poop in order to find the culprit of random befoulments, why you should eat clay, a Russian company that wants to advertise in low earth orbit, a Russian robot that isn't what it seems, and how to carry your best mate in your bag. **If you like the podcast, send us some support by visiting [The Geek Show](http://thegeekshow.co.uk) and clicking on [The Geek Show](http://thegeekshow.co.uk/thegeekshop/) tab.

It's the final episode of 2018 and The Geek Show is going for a well-deserved break from all of the weird science, technology and "other" news that we've found this year. Before we head off though, Rob and Producer Rob have the small matter of one last show … This time we're kicking off with some big trailer news as the first teaser for Avengers: Endgame finally appeared - and immediately spawned numerous semi-comical tweets and messages to NASA begging them to somehow save Tony Stark. We also discuss the trailer for the James Gunn-produced superhero horror movie Brightburn before moving on to the surprising results of the most-tweeted BBC shows of the year. In other news, the NHS will finally stop using fax machines, a florida-based company believes it can solve problem children, a U.S. border patrol agent goofed explosively, Taipei police goofed with money, an animal psychic (with a rather stunning punchline), Catholic curfews in Colombia, and a rather unconventional vending machine. So it's business as usual here on The Geek Show. And with that we're officially on a break so we'll see you all in January of 2019. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone!

The Geek Show rolls back into town for another turn on the "Suck It And See" roller-coaster of science and technology news, and this week it's Rob who joins Producer Rob for afternoon tea and ridiculousness. So what's in store this week? Well, Elon Musk wants Mexico to let him sell Teslaquila, raccoons got drunk on apple, Facebook want local people for local news, Instagram wants to help with your holiday, new research about allergies (involving pacifiers), the Pinnochio effect in reverse, artificially intelligent news anchors, Japanese politicams, designer sports trainers, the most stupid app in existence, Dutch motivational gurus, Malta's arrival in the Temple of Odd, and possibly the best bouncy castles ... in the world. It's all just another day at the office here at The Geek Show. If you've enjoyed this podcast then please share us with your friends or leave us a rating on your podcast app of choice.

How's that for a title? It's time for another peep through the keyhole of science and technology news with The Geek Show, and this week Graham joins Producer Rob for some tasty morsels of the weird and strange. Kicking things off is the rather serious news that humans are already eating microplastics - but the method of discovery is somewhat … gross. After that we discover that Elon Musk plans to make his own suburban "batcave", the meaning of #protestNIPS, a Japanese company that rewards its employees for getting a good night's sleep, the removal of Apu from The Simpsons, the link between dirty socks and malaria, some bizarre Star Wars merchandise, lighting plants in Chengdu, the Catholic alternative to Pokémon GO and more. We end the show with a look at some of the nominations and winners of the Ig Nobel Awards for 2018 (and before you ask, no - we didn't make any of them up). The Geek Show is a a mad, mad, mad, mad podcast, and if you like what you've just listened to then please share us with your friends or give us a review on iTunes.

The strange alleys and weird streets of science and technology news need strong men to patrol them, but since they all have the day off it's time for Andrew and Producer Rob to surreptitiously skulk around. Skulk is such a good word, isn't it? Anyway, this week's discoveries include a new internet by Sir Tim Berners-Lee, easyJet versus Netflix, a newly discovered dinosaur with an amazing name, lessons in food presentation for Instagram, super and psychic powers, the Japanese Ro-Bob the Builder (it has a screwdriver hand!), paying other people to quit your job for you, the rise in scary South Korean “uncles” for hire, very heavy trainers (sneakers for our American friends), and a sequence of bizarre events in Ipswich (and not the usual strangeness either).

We apologise for the lateness of this episode - EGX happened so please look forward to our coverage of the event. Anyway, Rob joins Producer Rob for another jaunt through the strange hinterlands of science, technology, culture and society where oddities tower like … well … very odd things really … Kicking things off this week, we find out the unfortunate name of a growing trend that involves watching people studying on a livestream - a story that we discovered back in S15E23. In the main news we discover that Jordan Peele may direct a remake of Candyman, research proves that jet hand dryers are basically air cannons for germs and bacteria, climate scientists join Fortnite to teach people an important lesson, Doctor Who gets a Little Miss book, laser guns are being used as scarecrows, lawsuits about cryogenically frozen heads, UFO landing pads and people thinking that they're elves from Lord of the Rings.

The Geek Show returns for its fortnightly turn on the see-saw of science and technology news, so join Graham and Producer Rob as try to take over the playground. So what's in store for everyone this week? Well, apparently Wordpress have decided to kick Alex Jones' Infowars when its down, the oceans are suffering from noise pollution and need "sensitive" hammers (you read that right), blind-date vending machines (again, not a joke), an Amish version of Uber, print your own Tyrion Lannister, horror movie screenings in an active (and very religious), cathedral, the get-rich-quick schemes of small Turkish football clubs, and luxury diapers for pet chickens.

Your friendly neighbourhood Geek Show returns with the two Robs to take you on another wild ride through the weird borders of the science, technology and culture.  The big news this week is involves right-wing commentator and activist Alex Jones and his Infowars "media empire", and after that we find out how Facebook and Instagram plan to have people spend less time on their services - which seems quite laudable until you find out what our next item of news is ...  Naughty Facebook.  It's then time for the train to weirdsville where we discuss Minecraft, Christopher Robin movies, the evolution of Amazon's Alexa, "advanced" head wear from Malaysia, sharks in San Antonio and the science of urinating dogs. That last one is not a typo. It really is a weird, weird world out there.

The Geek Show returns for another go on the science and technology silly-go-round, and this time Producer Rob has been joined by the prodigal Andy.  So what's on the cards this week?

The Geek Show returns for another irreverent jaunt through the world, and this time Andy and Producer Rob are at the helm - which basically means there's nobody steering! After handing the navigation over to their "mature gentleman" alter-egos, we kick things off with some details about the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie, followed by data protection versus religion, high-tech lasers, police slingshots, body odour detectors, mobile phone charges for migrating birds, cloud theft, butchers versus vegans, unconventional massages, and how to advertise the World Cup. Week-by-Week The Geek Show lifts the veil on just how odd this world we live in really is.

That title should go without saying, but according to certain reports it seems like some people aren't so sure … Welcome to another episode of The Geek Show - the water-logged paddling pool of science and technology news, plus a few bits that we found amusing or interesting. On this episode Rob and Producer Rob brave the heat to discuss Facebook's latest dalliance with AI, Donald Trump's Cinematic Universe, crime prevention gardening, the study habits of a Korean Youtuber, tasty(?) golden wings, bad artistic statements and the most money-hungry member of the animal kingdom you ever did see. Join us for all of that and much, much more.

It's time for another episode of the podcast that, episode by episode, shines a light on just how odd the world and its people (and animals), really are. This week Graham joins Producer Rob to investigate the Department of Transport's "brilliant" idea to tackle overcrowding on trains, Ask.fm's tragic and somewhat ludicrous crypto-currency challenge, Facebook's news credibility jobs, student pranks, MIT's highly disturbing A.I. experiment, Australian psychics, sewage beer, Ed Sheeran's versus the Great Crested Newts, and the strange case of Argentinian Labrador in a bus shelter.

It's time for another jaunt into the weird world of science, technology and beyond, so join Rob and Producer Rob as they delve into the cosmos and head to Pluto to find out what it's made of (just to be clear, we're not picking a fight). After that it's back to Planet Earth to milk some cockroaches before we check out Holland's vegan steaks, Japan's intergalactic telepathy, Australia's never-ending mission to defend indigenous wildlife, and much, much more. The important stop is India, but we don't want to spoil that as it's far too spectacular. So … how do you milk a cockroach again?

The Geek Show returns for another foray into the weird happenings of science, technology and the world at large, which this time around include the latest antics from entrepreneur and closet Bond villain Elon Musk, getting porn from newsagents again (ah, technology!), interactive films, robot dogs versus door handles, special emotional helmets, dinner party blood tests (it's a definite conversation starter … maybe?), dealing with debtors - Russian style, court cases in Oregon, and a dog that can pay for stuff and is the single most adorable dog who ever did exist and deserves all the biscuits for being such a smart and good boy. _BREATHE_ Sorry.

The Geek Show rolls into town once again on its never-ending quest to prove that sometimes the world is just a really weird place ... This week Rob from Cinema Eclectica joins Producer (and man who ate soup while reading the news), Rob for another excursion into the weird mists of science and technology, and kicking things off is the shocking revelation that students in the UK can't read analogue clocks!  After that it's a cavalcade of oddities from the religious (statues of Jesus and mobile phone exorcisms), and the technological (forearm-based “touchscreens” and giant robots), to the scientific (keeping pig brains alive), and the downright strange (you'll know them when you hear them).

Join us for another ride on our strange rodeo of oddities from science and technology news around the world. This time Andrew joins Producer (and kind-of-newsreader), Rob to discuss Stan Lee's DNA signatures, "seeing" magnetic fields (but only if you're a bird), toddlers with better smartphones than you, the Pokemon Go incentive, a "getting-there" mech-frame (pilot not included), real Home Alone, literally moving house, stoned Argentinian rats (according to police), headless chickens and zombie raccoons.  This veritable bevy of oddness can only mean that it's time for another episode of the Geek Show.

Technically we're a news podcast, although it should be pointed out that "technically" is a powerful word. Join Graham and Rob for another journey through the sometimes strange worlds of science and technology news as they discover oddities like Elon Musk's latest "Boring" endeavour, getting power from screams (allegedly), spontaneous dinosaur combustion, slices of ketchup, armoured jackets for dogs, death-themed cafes, a rather strange company that wants to kill you in time for the Singularity, and much, much more. It's all deeply weird and terribly strange - which is basically the watchword of The Geek Show these days.

We're back for arduous journey into the hinterlands of science and technology news to bring more strange tales and weird happenings. This time it's Rob and Producer Rob captaining The Geek Show's flagship as it navigates through the cackling of Amazon's Alexa, fanatical Malaysian Apple fans (the technology company, not the fruit), modern "medicinal" leeches, record-breaking fidget spinners; record-breaking hula-hoop performers, political hair styles in Russia, realistic costume animal heads, Pizza Hut trainers, Jeff Goldblum and much, much more on top of that, so tune in.

The erstwhile Brundlefly of British podcasting - also known as The Geek Show - returns for another tongue-in-cheek romp through the hallowed halls of science and technology news, and this time Rob and Graham - who can more often be found together on that notorious hotbed of cultural anarchy called Literary Loitering - are running the show. You have been warned … So after some belated platitudes about Pokemon Day we burrow deep into the molehill of weirdness where we discover Thorpe Park's new roller-coaster, a teaser for HBO's adaptation of Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, pencil-holding problems, crisp flavours and teeth, brand awareness in primates, the trolling of scientific journals by science fiction and so much more.

The Geek Show returns once again with more irreverent news from the strange realms of science, technology and other places in between, and this week Rob is joined by yet another Andrew (where are they all coming from?). This week's discoveries include Facebook's status as the social media for codgers, a sequel to the infamous Kung Fury, a strange Japanese virtual presence device, noise suppression for toilets, iced tea, expensive school uniforms, footwear for footwear, visual "noise" cancellation, pepper spray-flavoured beer, avant-garde crossovers and much, much, more.

It's time to join Rob and Andy for more news-based shenanigans from the realms of science and technology, and we're kicking things of this week with some recycling ... ... on the Moon After that it's all systems go with potential holodeck technology, stupidity causing smartphone batteries to explode, Germany's unconventional method to "control" children with ADHD, a TV comedy about metal detecting powering past the fourth wall, a Russian home-made "Iron Man", Nissan teaming up traditional Japanese inn to produce something decidedly odd, and much, much more.  Want a little more from The Geek Show?

News has such a loose meaning these days, and it's our job to make sure that - at least for the science and technology parts - that status remains as silly as possible. Down with fake news! So what's been happening this week? Well, one of the singers from '90s all-girl group All Saints has decided to do social media, B & M are offering a unique employment opportunity (Is it a dream job? One of us thinks so), babies kick up a lot of dirt according to clever science people, there's a crowd-funding project for something called CarWink (usefulness is relative), and the first film screened in a cinema in Saudi Arabia for 35 years is ... terrible.   After all that we take a look at some of the stranger pieces of technology (a couple of which might be very useful), that have debuted at the Consumer Electronics Show. Until next time, be careful what you do with Speedos.

Producer Rob and Mark are back with the last episode of The Geek Show for 2017! In the news this week, YouTube attempts to do a music subscription service (again), a Star Wars character popularity poll produces some disturbing Jar Jar-related results, San Francisco think that robots will conquer our pavements and walkways (possibly as a prelude to their uprising), cosplaying as Batman is the answer to all our productivity issues (according to 4 to 6 year-old children), and the Dutch police eagles versus drones reaches its inevitable conclusion.   After that we close out both the show and 2017 with odd ideas for gifts during the festive season. And from all of us at The Geek Show, have a very merry Christmas, a happy New Year, and be excellent to each other.

Producer Rob is joined by a rather ill Graham for another turn on our chatter-go-round. We kick things off this week with a look at Facebook's terrible security strategies before moving on to Google, who are offering people the most frightening and soul-destroying job that anyone could have on the internet. After that we find an possible and unexpected move in the career of Quentin Tarantino, the apocalypse bunker that couldn't, and one of the worst uses of a statue of Jesus since … well, it's just that bad. Also, since Literary Loitering is technically in the house this week (all we need is an Andrew), we also discuss the rise of web novels from their beginnings as fan fiction to the wonderful things people are doing with the medium over in the East.

The two Robs return for a new episode, and they're greeted with nuclear lightning, the worst blow science could ever deliver to the London tourism board, an 'intriguing' use of 3D printing technology and a film to end all films. What else can we say? It is that significant. After that we head out into the great beyond to discuss wars and treks among the stars, how they've managed to stay relevant in the 21st century and what their future holds. Like the Show?

It's the turn of Andy and Rob to take the helm of our flagship podcast and trawl the waters of science, technology and general geekery to find some interesting (if a little "fishy"), pieces of news. This week our two erstwhile "captains" discover a disturbing Chinese bootleg poster for the new DCEU film Justice League - which also features some Marvel heroes, the prominence of dowsing in 21st Century Britain. DARPA's plans for plants and Boston Dynamics' latest impressive-yet-terrifying addition to The Robot Revolution. It's a series of seemingly tall tales that segue's nicely into this week's discussion about the future of robot-kind (which also follows-on quite nicely from last week's chat about artificial intelligence).

This week Graham and Rob get scientific with this year's Ig Nobel Prize and follow-on from last week with more details about The Lord of the Rings' leap to the small screen. They also discuss some rather odd news for all you burger and pizza fans out there and the latest evolution of robot dog. After that it's time to get technical with some artificial intelligence. How much did pop culture get right, and why do we always resort to sexing our robots? These are the questions that need asking.

Rob and Andrew take some time out from their other shows for another blast from patriarch of our podcast family - The Geek Show. Aside from the news that Warner Bros. and Amazon may collaborate on a TV project that nobody is ready for (or may even want for that matter), Universal announce that their multi-monster "Dark Universe" may return to the drawing board, and the UK Government's HS2 railway project will interfere with a planned development that makes us pine for Bear Grylls: Trainfighter. Oh, and Japan. It's time we sat down and have a serious talk. After all of that, the guys take inspiration from the very recent Bonfire Night (where the UK celebrates someone attempting to blow up Parliament?), and discuss other historical events that would make good TV shows - which makes us realise that we're programming gods! Now where did we put On The Box ...

Halloween is in the air, but instead spooky ghosts we find a veritable rainbow of apocalypses. Apocalypses as far as the eye can see, from zombie to biblical - you name it we rush on past it like a speeding bullet (but we forgot about aliens because our neighbours in the universe never stop by to say hello). We also have our usual selection of news including cheque clearing finally joining the 21st century, Sooty weighing in on the north-south divide, translation software getting people in trouble with the law and Reuters News Agency buying the last thing you'd ever expect them too.

Hoist the sails for another quick trip around the marina with our flagship podcast (See? We can do boat puns). This week Graham and Andrew anchor down for Spiders in Surrey, UK droners, Snapchat hot-dogs and a rather tragic fail for a YouTube wannabe trying to prank way above his station. There's also a discussion on the future of Marvel's post-Thanos Cinematic Universe, along with seamless plugs for our extended podcast family. Yes, you read that right. Seamless.

The grand-pappy of The Geek Show Podcast Network returns for another blast of news and geeky conversation. This week we take a look at the title for the new Han Solo film, A member of Blink 182's quest for space aliens, police hover-bikes, and a brand new Stranger Things game. After that, Andy and Rob talk about the future of Virtual Reality - which obviously means a lot of talk about Red Dwarf and Holodecks. You'd think we were obsessed or something ...

It's time for another edition of the reliable flagship! This week we're discussing the official death of the Windows phone, the promotion of Facebook's new Spaces application, the safety of self-driving cars and more. We also take a look at what's been happening on the network over the past week before we round things off with sci-fi franchises that we would love to see remade, rebooted or just continued - with obvious stopovers at Star Wars, Star Trek, The X-Files and the current technofantasy flavour of the month - Blade Runner 2049.
