Joe Hogan from the Geektitude and State of the Geek podcasts joins me on this solemn episode of Mating Habits of the Modern Geek. In light of all the terrible things happening in our country (and the world) at the moment, Joe and I stay in our lane and voice our support for the protests and the Black Lives Matter Movement, and then go on to chat about some lighthearted stuff like streaming shows Never Have I Ever and Upload; table-top games like the Kickstarter-only Hel and To Hunt a Killer; and a couple of true-crime podcasts thrown in for good measure.

Here are some links to resources and information about the protests, how you can help, and some podcasts by people of color to talk more about the subject in a way that Joe and I cannot – stay safe out there!

Sean Ryan phones it in from an undisclosed location in his driveway and joins me for talks about missing COVID-19 antibodies, snakes, California, and the problems with podcasting in the age of “Cancel Culture.” Sean gets his kid hooked on Sonic the Hedgehog and is one of the only folks still buying Blu-rays…and witness the return of FLIPPING TABLES!

In this episode* JJ and Mark of Atomic Empire (Comics, Games, Toys, and more!) join me to discuss owning a thriving game store during the pandemic, the future of movies and television, and what’s in store for The Mandalorian Season 2.  I potentially implicate myself in a social-distancing crime; JJ has surprising interactions with loyal customers; and Mark tries to explain to me what’s so cool about Boba Fett.

*FREE W/ DOWNLOAD:  Despite recording in the same house, JJ sometimes sounds like she’s in a cave and Mark sounds like he’s calling in from the Moon – we are truly living in the future, folks!
