Geekscape returns to Eternia for a brand new jam-packed episode! Amazon's big-budget adaptation of the popular 80s action figure and cartoon 'Masters of the Universe' is in theaters, and you KNOW we've got to discuss all things He-Man! Luckily, we've got a group of expert geeks from the film's target audience to talk things over with me: Christian Bladt from the Geekscape Network, He-Man animated and comics writer Tim Sheridan, Geek Professor (and actual Professor) Thomas Parham, and a superhero himself in Cooper Barnes! Beyond He-Man, we'll probably touch on things like Spider-Man Noir, and everything else happening in the Geekscape! Good Journey!

Musician Steve Coulter of the rock band Ridel High returns to Geekscape (maybe you know him as music writer S.W. Lauden)! If you're unfamiliar with Ridel High, they are one of the L.A. rock bands that landed a major label deal in the wake of Weezer's successful debut... and you may be unfamiliar with them because not all of those bands "made it". But I loved their one album in college and have had Steve on the show before to talk about that era in rock music. Now he returns with fellow bandmate Kevin Ridel to talk about their upcoming EP of unreleased Ridel High demos and B-Sides! It's a hilarious conversation that spans music industry ups and downs, video games, YouTube streaming, and so much more! And the always awesome Eric Ernst joins me as my music history literate cohost! Enjoy!

With little press and fanfare, Marvel's 'Wonder Man' landed on Disney+... resulting in almost unanimous praise from both fans and critics! Yahya Abdul-Mateen II stars as down-and-out actor Simon Williams, who develops a friendship with beleaguered actor Trevor Slattery, still struggling with a damaged career and reputation from playing the international terrorist 'The Mandarin'. Do both of their fortunes turn around when a new remake of the 70s superhero film 'Wonder Man' gets announced? And how do any of these events mirror the Wonder Man stories from the Marvel comics? Will the MCU Wonder Man ever join an Avengers team? Or develop a romance with Wanda Maximoff? Will we even see this Wonder Man again? We still have tons of questions! Join us as we work through them!

Alejandro Montoya Marin's 'The Unexpecteds' is the kind of fast, fun, and hilarious indie gem that I love to spotlight on Geekscape! I went to the Los Angeles premiere of the film, not knowing what to expect, and immediately fell in love with the high-energy underdog story about a team of scammed and down-and-out cast-offs putting together a heist to get their money back! Starring Matt Walsh and executive produced by Kevin Smith, the film is now available on digital and is going to be an indie cult favorite. Join Geekscape as I talk with 'The Unexpecteds' filmmaker Alejandro Montoya Marin about putting the film together, working with indie film legends like Robert Rodriguez and Kevin Smith, and his journey as a storyteller!

Actor, comedian, host, and political commentator John Fugelsang is on a victory tour for his brand new, New York Times Best Selling book 'Separation of Church and State'. A sharp and hilarious dissection of the current American political landscape (and its coopting of Christianity), John's latest release returns him to Geekscape. Not a bad follow-up to appearing on national favorites like The Daily Show! We discuss the parallels between fandom and faith, the dangers of imposing your favorite ones onto others, and how his book gives you tools to lower our national political temperature before everyone's cooked! We also talk about comics performing at the controversial Riyadh Comedy Festival, why you should stop buying Electronic Arts video games, and how James Gunn's 'Superman' got Christ's teachings right!

Fan favorite writer Timothy Zahn is a Star Wars legend! As the author of the original Thrawn trilogy in the early 90s (and numerous subsequent Star Wars novels), Zahn helped keep the Star Wars flame lit during the franchise's post-Return of the Jedi slumber. And at GalaxyCon San Jose, I had the honor of moderating the Spotlight on Timothy Zahn panel, where he shared stories about the creation of Grand Admiral Thrawn and other characters, how he first got the chance to write for Star Wars, what he thinks of his Extended Universe novels becoming Star Wars Legends, and much, much more! And now you get a chance to hear the conversation for yourself! Enjoy!
