They join us to help discuss ways to keep good geeky relationships strong so that can last; something everyone except me seems to excel at 🙂

Sean suggests that you look for reasons to high-five each other, finishes Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, oh, and announces that HE’S GOING TO BE A FATHER!

I talk about The VVitch, my feels about 10 Cloverfield Lane, and I officially announce Table-Flip Tuesdays with Andrew “M3JCNV” Bartlett, a bi-weekly addition to the blog.

Sean and I play a magical ame of “Would You Rather,” where we disagree… and I can’t remember that my favorite Dane is from Denmark – sorry Mads.

Tables get flipped over “Walking Billboards” and whether or not The Americas are actually two continents. By Sean’s estimation, California is it’s own continent, so you’re not going to want to miss this!

This is The Episode to beat all episodes!

We’ve got a historic All-Female host panel consisting of podcast favorites, Paris and Trish, and introducing Laurel in her MHMG debut!

Find out what what happens when four intelligent, charismatic, attractive, and incredibly geeky women are given an open forum to talk about what it’s like being a female in today’s Geek-i-verse. If you’ve ever wondered, “What’s the deal with chicks?” we’re going to let you have it.

AND THAT’S NOT ALL! I sit down with Chiki of the D20 Girls and discuss what it’s like first-hand as a professional cosplayer and an ambassador for one of the hottest and female-forward geek groups in the nation.

Secrets are shared, the nitty-gritty gotten down to, and tables are flipped – you aren’t going to want to miss this one.
