The final Geekin Out. Maybe.

Well, toss my clock and watch that time fly, it's a new GEEKIN OUT! Yup, the dumpster fire that was 2023 is out, and as we light up 2024, Chris n Spike take a look back at the best and worst movies of the year. Well, Chris does, but Spike brain farts on his number one pick for about 40 solid minutes, so, ya know, business as usual... So, visit a deli so you can watch those matzo balls drop, as we all keep GEEKIN OUT!

Disney may have given us a bunch of turkeys for Thanksgiving, but we've got something much better on our plates! Three of them, in fact! Well, two, anyway. Chris reviews NAPOLEON, Spike handles THE SHIFT, and then the boys tag team GODZILLA MINUS ONE! So, trip over the tryptophan on your way to Tokyo, and we'll all be GEEKIN OUT!

Well, freshen my daisy and call me Summers, Eve! It's a gynocentric GEEKIN OUT! Okay, we admit it. The boys pussed out this week. Turns out NEITHER of them hates himself enough to actually sit thru the gynoriffic grift of THE MARVELS, but judging from their weekend box office, neither did you. So, let's just agree to back away slowly... *THE ROCK's presidential candidacy sank like... eh, you know *CAPTAIN AMERICA 4 is getting shot. Again. *KEVIN FEIGE says no to ROBERT DOWNEY JR playing IRON MAN. Again. *COYOTE VS ACME blows up in WARNER's face *C3PO is pimping his parts *VHS is back! Hail to the King, baby! And sundry assorted sundries like them that there... So, get them pansies to massin, Gil, and we'll keep on GEEKIN OUT!

Well, hang the animatronics, that pizza will kill ya! Even if you're GEEKIN OUT! The rants are running wild this week on an XL episode of GeO: *Chris reviews FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDYS *Spike has the latest on the SAG/AFTRA STRIKE *Chris goes over trailers for new trailers of KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES, ECHO, MONARCH, GODZILLA MINUS ONE and THE FALL GUY *Spike explains the great unspoken truth about DEI's underpinning assumptions *Spike compares modern movies to fake meats *Then, Spike gets REALLY weird. Oh, and something about the CREATURE COMMANDOS. So, dye them roots blood red all you want; the rest of us will be waaay over here, GEEKIN OUT!

Just in time for Halloween (2024), the boys review some horror gems from the past century of cinema and television. From THE MAN WHO LAUGHS to LET ME IN, and everything in between, you're in for some (belated) treats with your tricks in your friendly neighborhood BRV!

Well, Brad my Bird and watch him Skydance! It's yet another GEEKIN OUT! This time 'round, the boys discuss PETE DOCTER's retrenching at PIXAR, DISNEY Animation's talent grab, and why the biggest winners in all this are JOHN LASSITER, BRAD BIRD and SKYDANCE ENTERTAINMENT. Also: *Refurbing a historic cinema *AQUAMAN 2 swims further out the schedule *QUEEN ELIZABETH loved that damn fine coffee *Three more stars lost to the heavens and so much more! So, say that cat Shaft is a bad mother, and that ain't no Bull, especially when we're all GEEKIN OUT!

Well, drop trou in my garden and moon my flower! It's (finally!) GEEKIN OUT! This week, the boys are killin' it all over pop culture: *ESPN dropping fast *For some reason, TONY HILLERMAN?! *Striking out Plus updates on PLUTO TV, ROKU TV, FRNDLY TV And no SNOW! So, be nice to that giraffe or no TOYS R US for you! You'll just be stuck GEEKIN OUT!

Well, pass the bowls around cuz here comes the pea soup! We're GEEKIN OUT! In this untimely episode, the boys tackle: *Dead celebrities *Directors ruining things *Strikers ruining things *AI ruining things *And did we mention Chris reviews EXORCIST:BELIEVER So, bring some bruins to your ruins as you keep GEEKIN OUT!

Halloween is almost upon us! That means ghosts and ghouls and vampires too! Here at BRV, it means something else. We've compiled a list of 18 of the best movies and TV shows for (mostly) all ages that'll put shivers in the kids' livers! From SLEEPY HOLLOW to GRAVITY FALLS, we've got just what the fam needs for a creepy night in... any time of year!

Well, call ESPN and settle my strikes! It's a new GEEKIN OUT! This week, Spike does the heavy lifting, and when he brings it heavy, he brings it haaard. To wit: *How to screw DC Comics *Strike out *Disney and Spectrum make up *Star Wars: not-for-profit *20 bucks? a MONTH?! *The FAST and the Curious and more, more, more! So, if you're gonna divert your streams Universally, do it FAST, cuz we're all GEEKIN OUT!

Back in the day... There have been some great movies, and many more good movies, and a LOT of bad movies, and even some utter stinkers. Then there are movies so devoid of substance, talent, coherence, talent, and did we mention TALENT, that you just want to stand up and shout to the movie heavens: "I WANT MY MONEY BACK!" In this episode, Spike & Chris take a break from providing a peek back at some of the best stuff ever to each provide their list of five(-ish) of the very worst movies of all time: the REFUND MOVIES!

Well, enter the Funhouse and spay or neuter the Beast! We're GEEKIN OUT! This time, the boys are tackling pop culture from all four corners, including, but not necessarily limited to: * Chris reviews EQUALIZER 3 * Chris also reviews ONE PIECE * DISNEY & SPECTRUM have a spat * AEW did something very very stupid * JAMES GUNN likes older SUPERMAN * Too bad HENRY CAVILL is now a HIGHLANDER Plus, old games get movies and we don't know why, finger guns, everybody dies, and more, more, MORE! So, have Harley get da goils togedder for a junket to Margaritaville where everyone is GEEKIN OUT!

Well, grab the bug spray, we got a BEETLE problem on GEEKIN OUT! This week, the boys have a slew of reviews: * BLUE BEETLE * THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER and * MEG 2: THE TRENCH Hint: One of them does not end well, and the other two don't rhyme with wheedle. Along the way, they talk about NERF slaughter, weak STREAMING, and the new SNOW WHITE's disturbing belief system! So, bring some garlic bread cause the other passengers are kinda batty! We're all GEEKIN OUT!

Well, ghost me on Snapchat and blow me organ! It's GEEKIN OUT! This time, the boys review DISNEY'S HAUNTED MANSION (again?!) and TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: MUTANT MAYHEM! But wait, there's more: *Strike updates *RIP Pee-Wee *Mo' No White *Batman:TAS:TCB *The Smartest Guy in YOUR room And more oozers for your losers! So, call the waiter, cuz there's a rat hair in your turtle soup! We're all GEEKIN OUT!

"Words mean things." A simple phrase that belies the wisdom it represents. In our season 6 premiere, Spike sits down with Chris to look at how words and phrases can change meaning over time. Some change through common agreement, but many politically charged terms are deliberately done by the media's masters... The Chore of Duty is half political podcast, and half history lesson. As Twain said, "History doesn't always repeat, but it usually rhymes."

Back in the day, when every neighborhood had a video store, in the back of that store were the videos that stood the test of time. These are the BACK RACK VIDEOS! In an age where "the science" is argued and debated, we're looking back at the best SCIENCE SHOWS in TV history! We start with MR. WIZARD, work our way thru PBS shows like NOVA and 3-2-1 CONTACT, and move on to BEAKMAN'S WORLD and BILL NYE before we look at the best modern science shows, like... MR BEAST?! Yup, it's a looong strange trip, but we've got our remote ready to rewind in this episode of BRV!

Well, double my displeasure with double the gum (in my perfectly coiffed hair)! It's time for GEEKIN OUT! This time, it's a review two-fer as Chris takes on OPPENHEIMER (spoiler: loved it) and BARBIE (spoiler: didn't). In fact, his hate for BARBIE actually force choked our camera! We lost ten minutes of footage where Chris gave it 2.5 out of 5 (that's Netflix fodder), and a lot of Spike explaining his suspicion that Babs' filmmakers may actually be playing the satire card. Could it be? Think it over as homework, as Spike will touch back on it in episode 221! So, think pink before you blow up, and keep on GEEKIN OUT!

Well, set Tom Cruise on my shoulders and call me a booster seat! We're all GEEKIN OUT! This time, you get not one but TWO takes on MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - DEAD RECKONING PART ONE. But, wait! There's more! The DISNEY Dorks! JIM CAVIEZEL talking RON PERELMAN striking What is Hollywood's problem? This time? More ALITA Pre-WONKA SUPERMAN: LEGACY And a sneaky peek at what's to come from... US! So, grab some Selsun Blue and wash that white right out of your script while we're all GEEKIN OUT!

Well, bait my cheese and call me Jerry! It's another awesome new GEEKIN OUT! This time, the boys explore just how many ways a global entertainment conglomerate can implode, as well as: *Deadpool 3 *Beetlejuice 2 *Ghostbusters 4 *Sarah Connor on H&I *Godzilla on Pluto TV *Psycho in UHD and more poor decision making than a White House staffer! So, just walk away and give 'em your back, Lot. We're all GEEKIN OUT!

Even alone, when it comes to reviews, we never stop GEEKIN OUT! In this edition of GeO AFTERMATH, Spike takes on SOUND OF FREEDOM: the new movie starring JIM CAVIEZEL that exposes the world of child sex trafficking through the true story of Tim Ballard, a DHS agent who goes after a pedophile, and quickly finds himself in a much wider and dirtier world. Spike is already on the record about the global issues of slavery in general, and sex slavery in particular, but when kids are thrown into that particular evil... Hear the review, or don't, but definitely SEE THIS FILM!

I'm not surprised. It had to happen. It took five LONG years, but it finally happened. We have just unleashed our first ever GIANT ROBOT SPIDER AWARD to a movie. You can guess which one. Find out how one movie can fail so completely, the audience demands refunds. Here. Now. We suffered. Your turn.

Well, show me repeats and show me repeats! It's a new episode of GEEKIN OUT! There's budget cuts a-comin' at WARNER-DISCOVERY and TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES fans like STEVEN SPIELBERG just... can't... TAKE IT! But, Spike's got an idea of what might ACKSHUALLY be happening over there, and hope does spring eternal. Kinda like our episode timeline! *FLASH fallout *SOUND OF FREEDOM for your 4th of July! *KENTUCKY THEATRE's SUMMER CLASSICS are underway *Duh duh DISNEY *KEVIN SMITH on no BATMAN BEYOND *MICKEY MOUSE skirts the law *ROMERO's new dish washer *Underrated mystery movies And a buncha udda stuff like dat dere! Oh, and did we mention we just began our SIXTH SEASON of GEEKIN OUT? What would we like? Well, cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts, so good you could go nuts, and we want it... on GEEKIN OUT!

Well, blister my boots and give me a hotfoot! It's a new episode of GEEKIN OUT! The boys review THE FLASH (it ain't THAT bad. Ain't that GOOD either), before wandering off in various directions, including why JAWS is better in a theater, and what JAMES GUNN can do to get DC STUDIO back on track (it don't involve more superheroes, BTW)... So, toss a match in your cooked bacon for a real flash in the pan with GEEKIN OUT! CAUTION: the boys use a little spicy language in this one, and spoilers roam free. You have been warned!

Well, THAT took a while. As promised, here's Chris' long-awaited review of DISNEY's LITTLE MERMAID remake. So, did he like it, or did he LIKE IT like it? Or was it merely so okay? But that would be telling. So, join the fun as Chris gives his two cents, and Spike gives a dirty squirt. You will learn to love water pollution on this ep of AFTERMATH!
