Der Geek

Late but in earnest. Scheduling problems caused us not to be able to record until Friday night, which basically meant I wasn't able to edit the show until today. So, sorry tht it's late, but think of it as getting a two-fer this week! In this episode, Leanna and I discuss such things as Fringe (promising) and the US Life on Mars series (avoid!), the new Indiana Jones movie, and others.
We delve into the topic of the German School System, which goes on a bit long, and along the way recount some anecdotes about our school life. By the way, that Wikipedia article has a lot of additional information, and is pretty interesting. Worth checking out.
Last but not least, we respond to your voicemails, and by your, we mean Jack Jaffee's.
If you want to contact the show, give us a call at 206-888-2644, or send an email to dergeek@gmail.com, or comment on the blog at dergeek.com. Also, feel free to follow me on Twitter.
Promos played were for Metamor City (great show), Tale Chasing (Tes Fest sounds like fun!), and The Weird Show (Encaf, you... have a great handle).
Music is courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network. Featured songs were Let the Cool Goddess Rust Away and Over and Over Again Lost and Found by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.

Scheduling snafus and summer movies caused episode 12 to be a little late this week. If you cant get enough of my voice, check out episode 13 of the Cue The Film podcast at http://cuethefilm.blogspot.com/2008/06/cue-film-13-episode-of-movie-shame.html.

Sorry in advance to those of you with slow connections (Yeah, sorry Jack), but we have something extra special for you this week. As mentioned in our previous episodes, the fest is in town, and the confluence of that and us having borrowed my sister's camcorder, led to us filming this brief tour of the fest. We hope you enjoy it!
No promos or music this week, but be sure to check out the Cue The Film podcast, since I made a guest appearance on their most recent episode, and you may quite possibly be hearing more from me on that show as well.
P.S. I did my best to make sure the video is ipod-compatable. If not, or if any of you out there have trouble viewing it, drop us a line at DerGeek@gmail.com, or leave us a voice comment at 206-888-2644.

We've made it to episode 10! (Woohoo)
In this episode, well, we have the second part of the Jack Jaffee interview, and lots and lots of technical problems (such as the third half of the Jack Jaffee interview not wanting to be imported into Audacity, and a strange consistent clicking sound)
Promos played were for The Podcast Formerly Known as the MILF and Cookie Podcast, and Nobilis Erotica.
Music courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network. Featured songs were Wasting My Time by Creature Republic, and Go by Fishing for Comets.
Sorry about the audio quality. We'll have it fixed by next time. I won't feel bad if you skip it...

This week, instead of Libsyn eating my blog post, Audacity ate my podcast. So, no Leanna this week in the intro and outro babble. But she sends her love and rolling r's.
This week, we interview this show's mentor and founding father, as well as all-round good guy, Jack Jaffee from 12vTheater.com.
We also answer your voicemail, including two from Nobilis.
Promos this week are from Nobilis Erotica and  Polyamory Weekly.
Music courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network. Featured songs were Set Me Free by The Movement, and Four Fingered Fisherman by Modest Mouse.
Stay tuned next week for part two of the Jack Jaffee interview.
See you at DragonCon!

Big announcement... you'll have to listen to find out.
No, we're not podfading, it's a good thing, you'll see. Er, hear. Whatever...

No real show this week. I had plans that fell through, so I'm by myself making up for not having a real show (fun fact: ever notice how some shows spin not having a real show by calling the replacement a "bonus show"?) Lots of plugs today, but first, a special musical guest star: Silence, Silence.

Shoutouts to a ton of podcasters, especially Striptaculous, where we were guest stars. Also, 12v Theater, the Milf and Cookies podcast, the Farpoint Recap, and probably some other shows too that I forgot.

Real show next week, I promise!

In this episode of Der Geek, we recap the story so far in our week.
Our first topic is a post-mortem of Wingin ' It 3D, which leads into a spontaneous review of Southland Tales.
Our main topic discusses what tyoes of sports are big here in Germany, including such unique sports as Völkerball and Brennball, as well as the fairly popular Handball.
We wrap things up with a review of Life on Mars, followed by a volley of voicemails from Coffee Jack and Brian "Zaphod". Discussed: this article and Penn and Teller's Bullshit, as well as Penn Radio.
Music provided courtousy of the Podsafe Music Network. Featured songs were Four Fingered Fisherman and Every Penny Fed Car by Modest Mouse.
Promos were for Tale Chasing and 12vTheatre. Check them out!

I'm flying solo again this week. I start off with some sad news about our friend in podcasting, C.A. Sizemore. Go to thetribeisone.com to leave a contribution.
I start by catching you up on recent events, including our new gaming console that actually has my wife playing video games (gasp!), as well as a new game for the 360. I also mention Death Cab For Cutie's new album.
For my main topic I review the Uwe Boll film "Postal. And immediately regret it.
Finally, a surge of voicemail, including a brand-new caller, Nobilis, as well as Jack Jaffee and somebody's butt!
Music provided courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network. Featured songs were Catch Me in Line by The Naturals, and In The Ether by Huh-uh.
Promo played was for the Striptaculous podcast at striptaculous.com

At long last, the episode you've all been waiting for! Leanna and I discuss sex and sexuality in Germany for about 45 minutes. Hope yo all enjoy!
