It's the most wonderful time of the year for nerds — San Diego Comic-Con, aka “Fandom Christmas”! In this episode, we break down the highlights from this year's event. While many of our usual fandoms were noticeably absent, there were still some exciting announcements and moments worth geeking out over. And yes, we know this episode is fashionably late — life really got in the way this time! But better late than never when it comes to celebrating SDCC.

We start off our "Oops! All TV" episodes with a look at that time George Lucas made a prequel to one of his beloved franchises with a child actor yelling things like "yippee" and a lot of really racist stereotypes that were bad even in the 90s. No, not Phantom Menace, we already did that one! This is Young Indiana Jones.The subject of this episode contains depictions of racist caricatures of Middle Eastern and African people, child abduction and enslavement, the use of brown face, and general islamaphobia, orientalism, and british imperialism, and our discussion of the subject will touch on these themes.

Are we the bad guys, Slackers?On this week's episode, I dive into the phenomenon of toxic fandom, exploring how Generation X shaped the passionate, sometimes divisive, fan cultures around Star Wars, wrestling, music, and even the DC vs. Marvel rivalry.From gatekeeping in 1980s punk scenes to online harassment in modern fandoms, we examine Gen X's role in setting early fan standards that can exclude newcomers. Anyone remember Usenet groups? Ever call someone a poser?There is a direct correlation between how our own sense of nostalgia and the early internet amplified tribalism. I mean, how many Gen Xers claimed George Lucas "ruined" Star Wars?Did Gen X spark toxic fandom, or is it a broader cultural issue? Can fandoms (and society) somehow become less toxic, or has that ship already sailed?Let me know!

A nerd, a jock, a princess, a werewolf, and a gender-swapping journalist walk into 1985… This week, Jovial Jay and Shua take a nostalgic trip back to high school to celebrate the teen comedies that defined a generation on Enjoy Stuff Whether you were eating lunch in the library, building your dream girl, or skiing the K12, teen comedies in 1985 tapped into real adolescent emotions with totally tubular exaggeration. It's been 40 years since these iconic films hit theaters—so grab your Walkman, fluff your bangs, and join us as we Enjoy Teen Movies! News A coffee table made out of VHS tapes goes viral, mixing nostalgia and furniture George Lucas highlight narrative art at SDCC Starfleet Academy teaser drops, setting up a return to Star Trek's future Strange New Worlds renewed for 5th and final season H.E.R.B.I.E. and the Fantastic Four join the Avengers Campus lineup Spinal Tap II drops a trailer—get ready to crank it to 11 again this September RIP Tom Lehrer—brilliant satirist and mathematician Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Shua is fascinated by Huge* (*if true), a smart and engaging YouTube show hosted by Cleo Abram that tackles big ideas with clarity and positivity. Jay fell down a retro rabbit hole with Wild Rides (1982), a Nickelodeon doc/music special hosted by a young Matt Dillon and set to rollercoaster footage with music from The Who, Steely Dan, Hendrix, and more. Sci-Fi Saturdays - This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay analyzes the rebooted Robocop (2014). It has a slicker suit, sharper tech, and a whole lot more Michael Keaton, but does it hold up to the original? Read Jay's full breakdown on RetroZap.com.

Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Teen Movies! 1985 was a banner year for teen comedies, giving us characters we loved, related to, and sometimes cringed at. These movies didn't just entertain, they helped define Generation X adolescence. Why did these films resonate so much? Because the '80s were overflowing with disposable teen cash, hungry studios, and an army of rising stars like Michael J. Fox, Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, John Cusack, and more. They gave us escapism, identity, and some truly quotable lines. Did one of these movies speak to you? Did you own the soundtrack? First person that emails me with the subject line, “Two Dollars!” will get a special mention on the show. Let us know.

It's the epic conclusion to our trilogy of George Lucas Rolling Stone interview episodes and this week it's The Revenge of the Lucas (or is it the Return?). Either way, this Lucas is in the world between worlds, ending his saga and feeling pretty good again. Along the way he's getting deep on creating life and wondering if he's ever known anyone in an iron lung. Which all makes total sense. So have a Diet Coke, celebrate the love and listen today!

Tim opens the final hour with plans to possibly stake out Encino for some on-the-ground coverage—after all, as a former limo driver, he knows the streets better than most. Then it's pizza talk and SoCal favorites before shifting to pop culture news: George Lucas made a surprise appearance at Comic-Con to announce the long-awaited opening of the LA Lucas Museum. Tim dives into the current value of the Star Wars franchise and gives a shoutout to comedian Heather Brooker, performing live at The Ice House this Friday. The hour turns somber with updates on tragic shootings in Reno, NYC, and Miami, before wrapping up with a look at the MLB's 2025 Hall of Fame inductees—how many do you recognize?

Finally, Frank interviews Cindy Mich, a veteran journalist, filmmaker, and founder of the Art is Alive Film Festival. Cindy opens up about her career, the importance of independent media, the legacy of her late partner, and her current work telling the story of Holocaust survivor Ben Lesser.

Vanessa Kirby shines as Invisible Woman, and Pedro Pascal brings a unique (if divisive) take on Reed Richards. Thomas shares exclusive San Diego Comic-Con highlights including immersive brand experiences and deep, impactful panels. Cindy Mich shares insights into building trust as a journalist, embracing multiple mediums, and running a purpose-driven film festival. The Art is Alive Film Festival doesn't just screen films — it educates and supports indie filmmakers with real tools and exposure. Cindy is working on a film about Holocaust survivor Ben Lesser and another film honoring her late partner, blending healing and legacy. Quotes: “I won't give up my kid for the world, but I won't give up the world for my kid either.” — Thomas, quoting Fantastic Four “If there's somebody you admire at a con, go talk to them. They're there for you.” — Thomas “You can do anything as long as you're persistent and patient.” — Cindy Mich “My goal is to help artists be seen — not just screened.” — Cindy Mich Call to Action: If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to Geek Freaks on your favorite podcast app, leave us a review, and share the show with your fellow geeks!

It's A STORM OF SPOILERS: A STAR WARS SPECIAL! This week, Dave and Neil take a moment to think about how George Lucas' Star Wars trilogies and the content produced by Disney after its acquisition are in discussion with the American political climate of the 1970s, 80s, 2000s, and mid-2010s. They end by speculating on what Star Wars character aligns with their political journeys and wondering if Grogu has any politics.
