The boys get together over the holidays once again! Despite the talk of Mandalorian season one, it really was recorded this week! Also, they screw you at Columbia! Plus, a knock-down drag-out over Big K-mart! This episode of D4G was recorded live at Fox's Pizza Downtown on 12/29/2021
They're back for an all-new episode recorded this actual year! It's recorded at a really low bit-rate, and no one knows why, but there's still a ton of D4G goodness as they talk about Godzilla, King, Ultraman, Beastmaster, Uncle Roy, and --wait for it--Chris Elliot.
Hello? Is anyone there? We kinda have an announcement to make. Yes, it's true! This is not an old recording! This is not a dream! Not an imaginary tale! The band is back together! At least for one night! So join us as we talk Wacky Packages, Wonder Woman, Mandalorian, Fireworks, and more! Now in HARD-TO-HEAR-O-VISION! This episode of D4G was recorded 12/27/20 over dinner at Mellow Mushroom, St Simons, GA
Promises are important. When you make them, you have to keep them. And in this week's adventure, Magnus *FINALLY* pays off a promise he made to Scott Ryfun of D4G fame four years ago. Yes indeed, boys and girls, this is a coda to the 2015 megaseries entitled Women In Comics, wherein Magnus read a bunch of comics starring female characters. Memories are recounted, comparisons made and it would be safe to say that both Magnus and Scott Ryfun of D4G fame come away from this experience as better men. It's a safe guess anyway. I mean, honestly, who even knows with those two, amirite? So what more do you want? Start listening right now before Peter Parker tells you how disappointed he is in you.

The cliff hanger is resolved as we reveal who showed up at our dinner just as we were wrapping up. We talk podcast feuds, Bert and Ernie, Crayons, and I Can Read Books. Oh, we can't keep it a secret anymore. It's Steve Glosson! Glosson showed up at the table! This one is soooo much fun! This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 5/5/16
Okay, which guy was the Yeeeeeeess? Guy? Was it Mr. Whipple? Wasn't he also Lucy's boss on the New Lucy Show? We're so confused. This episode of D4G recorded live 3/24/16 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak.
Ryan nearly burns himself and his dad to death. We talk Hot Toys. More Deadpool conversation... This episode of D4G was recorde 2/25/16 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak.
Did you think we were gone for good? Well, we more or less are, but we've recently recovered some files that will enable us to continue telling the story of the demise of D4G. This is a fun dinner that pays tribute to fellow podcasters Professor Alan and Trentus Magnus. That and the minutia of pop culture are dissected as usual. This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood Restaurant on 1/23/16
Just two days after Jeff unveils his wedding plans there's another dinner. This time, Steve Glosson has made his way into Brunswick to record a Force Awakens commentary. They plan on it being the first one to hit the internet but they're beaten to the punch by Rebel Force Radio by a day. Ron and Jeff are unavailable, so Ryan, Steve, and Scott grab Thomas to join them at Barbara Jean's. Steve and Ryan have had a simmering feud boiling for a few weeks and once they come face to face...nothing. But it does result in some very good action figure talk. Now, let me warn you that Barbara Jean's is a great restaurant, but it's also a tad noisy, so some sections of this podcast are more difficult to hear than usual (and that's saying something!). This Episode of D4G was recorded 1/16/16 at Barbara Jean's Restaurant on St. Simons Island.
Here it is! It's been talked about for over a year, and now you can experience it firsthand. The event that nearly tore D4G apart. The event that left repercussions on the D4Gverse that continue to this day! This is the first step on the road to D4G-Civil War! This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 1/14/16.
Of all the tasteless episodes of D4G, this may be the tastelessest. The gang reconvenes after taking a break over the holidays. The previous recording session had been on the evening of the Force Awakens's premiere. A variety of topics are covered herein, but it all keeps coming back to the tastelessness. This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 01/07/16.
We have finally broken into the ranks of those rich podcasters and gotten a sponsor! No, not really. We would love to have you on as a sponsor if you would like, but we doubt McDonald's will be that sponsor. Especially after they hear the stories in this episode. Plus! Permanent Guest Geek Matt, Ron, Ryan, and Scott go over their Core 4 quotable movies. Plus, the sad, sad story of Caddyshack II... This episode of D4G was recorded 11/20/14 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak in Brunswick, GA.
It's a guest geek gala galore as Jeff brings not one but two guest geeks to the table! His wife Susan and her cousin Robbie sit and have a geeky dinner with Jeff, Scott and Ron and have a robust discussion about the meaning of "The Last Jedi." Film tourism also plays a role in the discussion. It's all fun and totally geeky! This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 2/2/17.
Going through the files, I found THIS! It's a show that's a little over two years old. Recored during Jeff's hiatus, this episode features, Ryan, Ron, Scott, and Matt Colvin! It was recorded the day in November of 2014 that the title, The Force Awakens was released. You'll hear our first reactions upon hearing the title! Can't wait for the movie to come out! This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steaks in brunswick, GA on 11/06/14. geeks@dinner4geeks.com ronsbeard@dinner4geeks.com
Ryan isn't well, because he's set to have a root canal the next day. What can the guy do to cheer him up? Not much, to be honest. But that doesn't stop them from having another robust geek talk that begins with the new Savannah semi-pro baseball team and ends with The Space Giants. The mid section? A recap of the experiences of Brusnwick, GA during the making fo the Ben Affleck flop Live By Night. This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 11/5/15
Dinner 4 Geeks Episode 125: Monkeying Around It’s just two geeks this week, as Scott and Ron sit down to a dinner and let their minds wander in a stunning display of cogent stream of consciousness. However, it always winds up circling around to monkeys. Or Hitler, but I think that was a given. Plus we talk about: Absorbine, Jr. Greg Brady’s move to the attic Dan Curtis’s Ouvre George Romero’s Mar’in We try to sort out the difference between Timothy and Joseph Bottoms Ronald’s eBay find of a Planet of the Apes short story collection The Hitler Rap This edition of D4G was actually recorded this year! 1/12/17 at Zachry’s Seafood and Steak. geeks@dinner4geeks.com
The Geeks are joined by Uncle Daddy as they discus the 2015 San Diego Comic Con 9yes, it's an older dinner). And they wait, while Jeff takes care of business so Scott can give him his birthday gift. It's worth the price of admission. This episode of D4G was recorded live at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 7/09/15. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
It's a Christmas Miracle! Not an imaginary story! Not a hoax! The Geeks are back and they're talking about Rogue One! They're also exchanging Christmas gifts. Wait till you hear it!

Enjoy the holidays with this new take on a Christmas classic! D4G's own Scott Ryfun plays George Bailey, Doug and PB&J Otter creator Jim Jinkins plays Clarence the Angel, and Deal or No Deal winner and former Brunswick, GA Mayor Bryan Thompson plays Joseph and Mr. Potter. A very talented local Brunswick, GA cast helps bring this tale to life!
This episode has been sitting completed for a few months, but I was waiting until we got a few more finished to put it out. HOWEVER, our beloved Mark Kalmbach proclaimed us "late" and I don't think he meant we were behind schedule. I think he thought we were dead. Well, we may be dying, but we're not dead yet. This episode of D4G was recorded live 6/25/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak.
A Week of Geeks concludes, but we'll be back soon! Harry Shearer is leaving the Simpsons?!? Say it ain't so! And is there REALLY more than one way to pronounce Cap'n Crunch?! This episode of D4G was recorded 5/14/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Yes, ANOTHER D4G, as a Week of Geeks continues! In this episode, Scott tells a tale of a Free Comic Book Day tragedy and why he didn't make it this year. Ron, on the other hand, DID make it and shares the results of his haul. Ryan, who keeps swearing off Star Wars collecting allllllllmost bought an ANOVO Stormtrooper costume. This episode of D4G was recorded 5/07/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com geeks@dinner4geeks.com Don't forget to rate us on iTunes!
A Week of Geeks continues with ANOTHER original episode! The Geeks get into a discussion of warehouse finds of old Star Wars toys and their White Whales of collecting. Which of course segues into bucket list concerts the Geeks still want to see. Which somehow leads to white guys you get confused with each other?!? This episode D4G was recorded 4/9/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
A Week of Geeks Continues! Scott talks about the brand new GTX theater that opened that morning in Brunswick. This leads to a discussion of John Hughes films. And Jeff's obsession with covers of songs by artists he hates. This episode of D4G was recorded 4/2/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak http://zachrys-restaurant.com
A Week of Geeks Continues! Ron has finally watched The Returned and he and Scott have to compare notes. The gang then launches into a discussion of little-known spinoffs of television shows. We continue to fight over the pronunciation of the word "GIF." AND we FINALLY answer an email question from a listener: What if Star Wars: A New Hope had flopped? The question came to us from the podcast Almost Educational. The topic is discussed in episode 27 https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/almost-educational/id898635818?mt=2 This episode of D4G was recorded live on 03/19/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steaks http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Here it is! For those of you who have been patient with us as we allowed real life to interfere with our release schedule, we're rewarding (punishing?) you with A Week of Geeks! Each day for the next week, you'll hear a brand new episode of Dinner 4 Geeks. That means you'll get seven episodes in a row, more than we released in the second half of last year! And these episodes go wayyyyy back. See, it's not that we haven't been having dinner. We just haven't had the time to edit the dinners into a somewhat listenable podcast. We're not promising the release schedule will be roses from here out, but we CAN say that we have over 30 dinners we haven't released and we're still recording nearly every single week, so we still have a lot to say! A lot of it is redundant and inane, but we use a lot of words when we do it. In this episode, Scott thinks it'll be a neat idea to give his fellow geeks some prizes if they can answer Star Wars trivia questions. However, he buys a cheap ebook to get the questions from and the book proves near-incomprehensible! Stubborn to the end, Scott refuses to drop and the Geeks embark upon a maddening, frustrating Star Wars trivia quiz. This Episode of D4G was recorded on 10/15/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com.
One thing I'll say about this episode, it is probably the most immediate of the 78 bazillion Force Awakens recaps out there. The Geeks (minus Ron; long story) travel a couple of hours to St. Augustine to catch the first show on The Force Awakens in IMAX 3D, and then immediately hit a restaurant to do what they do best--er, well--er, often, and that's voice boisterous opinions over meals. NOTE: The background music is a bit louder than usual, as we were seated at a much larger table than usual (we all brought our families) and we were placed directly under a LOUD speaker. This episode of D4G was recorded 12/17/15 at Cheesecake Factory, St. John's Towne Center, Jacksonville, FL.
Going through some older files the other day, I came across this episode that was never cleaned up and released. I finally figured out why: it conflicted with our one and only attempt at a Final 4 Geeks contest. However, once I opened it and began to work on it, I found it to be the dirtiest, filthiest, nastiest episode we've ever recorded. We ate while we recorded it. You might not want to while you listen! This episode of D4G was recorded 03/13/14 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com .
You know how somehtings just have a way of taking D4G totally off the rails? Which is why you love us right? Well, they guys try to talk about the D23 announcement of a Star Wars Land at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. But that only leads Scott to childhood memory of a Scooby Doo episode wherein they visit a Westworld-type amusement park. Ron thinks he's full of baloney, but is he...? This episode of D4G was recorded 8/20/2015 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak in Brunswick, GA http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Ryan is featured in the latest Target Share the Force ad! No, we're not kidding! Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOv3Qi7Vr5g He's the kid holding the Greedo! The Geeks also get into a conversation about Jeff's preparations to pop the question and about his ring. This episode of D4G was recorded live 08/27/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Believe it or not , the Geeks have been having their regular dinners and recording them. They just haven't been putting them out lately. This one being on the eve of Force Friday, we decided to put it out there. It also addresses the story of Disney's deeming Age of Ultron a "failure." PLus we talk about the passing of Wes Craven, and there's a HECK of a lot more. Just listen up. It's a heck of a lot of fun! THis episode of D4G was recorded live 9/3/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
This episode of D4G finds us having a leisurely dinner at the end of a long week. Jeff is out, as he has found himself often this summer, but the three of us have a pleasant discussion about older comics. Then! AS we're about to wrap up, Ron drops a bombshell on us! This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak in Brunswick, GA on 6/11/15. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Scott Gardner makes his long-awaited debut on D4G...but where are the LIT? We actually DID invite them to this dinner, but they all declined, so the foursome is Scott, Scott, J'Deane and Garrison. This episode was actually recorded 7/11/14 at the Captain's Grille at the Yacht Club at Walt Disney World Resort. However, when Scott Ryfun's phone was destroyed in a storm a few days later, he thought it was lost forever. However, he recently found the recording as part of an automated backup! Now, it's yours...
As we try to atone for Episode 100, the geeks find that something is a bit...odd about Ron's shirt. Scott decides to randomly live score the episode, much to Ryan's chagrin. Jeff bemoans the loss of the Savannah sand Gnats. Ryan shows off his new Japanese imported snap together models of R2-D2 and R5-D4. Ryan opens Mark Kalmbach's amazing gift. Ron wonders why they only remake good movies, instead of the bad ones. IN other words, why do they remake the ones they got right instead of trying to correct the mistakes of the ones they got wrong. The Geeks don't say goodbye to David Letterman, becasue they said goodbye to him 15 years ago. This Episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steaks on 5/21/14. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
The Geeks sit in vain wiating for Jeff to return from choir practice. IN the meantime, they talk about some of their favorite topics: Tim Elliot, Ron's review of Chappie, Star Wars, the love or lack thereof of Oliver Stone, Short Circuit, THE trip to Indiana, the future of Disney's Hollywood Studios, and the Adventures of Dr. Wang! THis episode of D4G was recorded 03/26/15 at Zachry's SEafood and Stewak in Brunswick, GA. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
OKay, so we hit a few bumps on the way to episode 100. We'll explain some of them in the episode. We'll also talk about Marvel's Star Wars comics, the latest Star Wars news, we pay tribute to the late Leonard Nimoy, and we discuss an article that mentions that there are certain intense fandoms that dilike most of the material out there. Ron makes a discovery about Night Court's Ellen Foley, which leads to...Markie Post...mmm, Markie Post...oh, excuse me. Anyway, we also get into Ron's revelation. There's something he did the other day that he hasn't done in twenty years. Find out what it is in D4G number 97!
The Geeks have a brief discussion about the new Marvel Star Wars #1 before they nsegue into the meat of the discussion, their HBO Mixtapes!This Episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 1/22/15. http:zachrys-restaurant.com
The guys were reviewed by website Roqoo Depot! It was a very...not spectaular review. The Geeks review their review and then move on to a rousing discussion of the board games of their past. This episode of D4G was recorded 1/15/15 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak in Brunswick, GA http://zachrys-resaturant.com
I have no idea why, but variations on this phrase keep coming up throughout the show. This week, the geeks talk life, relationships, and old video games. Scott then begins to unspool a semi-encyclopedic knowledge of Cinemax movies, much to the other guys' horror.This episode of D4G was recorded at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on 1/8/15. http://zachrys-restaurant.comDon't forget to join us for our live tweet during our viewing of Star Wars on Blu Ray. To watch with us, start the Blu Ray at 8pm EST sharp, and remember to use the hashtag #D4GSW
With Special Guest Appearance by Jeff! Eventually! The Geeks got together to record on the same day Entertainment Weekly and Lucasfilm revealed the character names from the FOrce Awakens teaser. Commentary and randomness ensues... This episode of D4G was recorded 12/11/14 at Zahcry's Seafood and Steak in Brunswick, GA. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
THat's right! We have determined that as of this episode, we have already said everything about Halloween that we possibly can, so this is it. Enjoy it while you can. There'll be no more Halloween on this program. Ever. Or not. We also get into a discussion of My Star Wars Story (mystarwarsstory.com), leaked Star Wars concept art, the SNL Marvel Studios parody, and Matt opens his bag of randomly-packed comics he bought on the way over. THis episode of D4G was recorded at Zachrys Seafood and Steak on 10/16/14. http://zachrys-restaurant.com .
Ryan pulls a no-show and in the meantime, Ron, Matt and Scott talk about the death ofSaturday morning cartoons and give their remembrances and recollections. Ron makes inappropriate Stephen COllins jokes, but we really think it's because he's hurt that one of his favorite actors has been revealed as a scumbag. Then, there's the strange case of Conrad Bain and his twin brother Bonar. No, really. This episode of D4G was recorded 10/9/14 at Zachry's Seafood and Steak in Brunswick, GA. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Ron talks about his daughter's big show biz break. What is it? Listen to find out. Tim Elliot asks Ron's Beard for career advice. Ryan picks up a cheap Stormtrooper figure from Wal Mart. The Geeks give an update on Jekyll Comic Con coming up December 13th. http://jekyllcomiccon.com . Ron has finally seen Guardians of the Galaxy but he had to sit through the new TMNT movie to get to it. With Star Wars: A New Dawn freshly out, the guys get into a discussion of Star Wars canon. You'll never guess who they suggest be added to a new film to make him canon. Ryan talks about his eerie evening playing Intellivision for the first time. Which gets weird. Then the Geeks cover some of the concept images leaked from the Episode VII crew. This Episode of D4G was recorded 9/4/14 at Zachry's Seaood and Steak. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
The four geeks are back together after a brief layoff, and there's a lot of catching up to do! Scott gives the geeks the gifts he got them on his Walt Disney World trip. Then he harangues them for the show without him. Ryan puts forth his idea for a Star Wars museum on Disney property. Which leads to a discussion about what Disney should be doing with its Star Wars presence in its theme parks. OH, and there's some Alderaan thrutherism thrown in for good measure THis episode of D4G was recorded live at Zachry's Seafood and Steak on July 24, 2014. http://zachrys-restaurant.com
Okay, Apes months was last month, but we were having trouble getting together during June, so we had to do it near the end of June. And then, Scott had to travel seven hours to Pensacola when he would have rather been subjecting himself to the torture of editing this show. So, at long last, it's here. And if you think we stick to Apes for the entire show, then you haven't listened to D4G before. Welcome aboard. It's a fun ride!
In this latest ball-choking episode, Magnus runs out of ideas and so joins forces with Scott Ryfun from D4G (where pretentious goes for dinner) to talk mostly about music.

Oh yeah, and the Secret Origins of D4G and Trentus Magnus Punches Reality are revealed for the very first time (at least on Trentus Magnus Punches Reality). So start listening! Otherwise His Excellency might go into a kung-fu stance on you! No feedback this week! Do you have a suggestion for a topic?
