In this week's episode, the whole gang is back to discuss all the things we loved and hated about Season 3 of Game of Thrones.  They discussed some of the major plot points for this season, what they hope for in next season, and who they would kill off if given the chance to write the future for the show. They opened the show with a new segment call "What's In Your Ear", in which the guys talked about all the new music they've been listening to this last week.  Will mentioned that he's been listening to a lot of Spotify Radio and Johnny's been listening to Macklemore's new album "The Heist". They moved on to Star Wars News with a clip from the Jimmie Kimmel show, which featured guest J.J. Abrams.  In the clip you heard from fans making requests for the new film.  Some of the fans turned out to be one Billy D. Williams and William Shattner, making some very funny requests. Watch the full interview here: http://youtu.be/sDkC_EkEUCg On Geek News, Ryan tried to convince Will that he will be seeing the Godzilla reboot because of a very special cast member added to the bill. This is how Will sees the new Godzilla film: This is why Ryan is stoked for the new Godzilla firm (Long-live Heisenburg!): They closed out the show with an Airing of Grievances revolving around modern film trailers and the issues with revealing too much of the movie.  They all ripped into the issues with trailers and how sometimes they show too much, showing all the good stuff, and almost ruining the film.

On this week's episode, Will and Ryan tone it down a bit and run solo, just the two of them.  They started off talking about new music and "What are you listening to this week".  Will brought up the new Black Sabbath album, not that he's listening, but that it came out.  Ryan mentioned his love of the Oceans Avenue album by Yellow Card, and the release the 10 year anniversary. With a lot going on in the Geek world, Ryan and Will opened up "Geek News" with discussions of E3 and all the cool things coming out of the conference this year.  One big discussion has been the overwhelming support the Play Station 4 has received, and how little support the X-Box One has received.  Both Will and Ryan agree, Microsoft might be smart to scrap the 2013 release and push to improve their issues. Here's the image from the hilarious Robert Downy Jr. story they talked about: During Star Wars News, Ryan brought up the new television show, Star Wars Rebels, which is said to take place after Episode VI.  The show is scheduled to come out in 2014.  Another big part of this weeks Star Wars News was the upcoming release of EA's Star Wars Battlefront 3.  Ryan was blown away by the amazing trailer, be sure to check it out. Will and Ryan closed out the show talking about the new film Man of Steel, staring Henry Cavill and Amy Adams. They discussed what they loved about the film, and some of the things they didn't like so much.  Be sure to listen in to see what Will and Ryan gave the film over all.

This Game of Thrones review was a little bit of a drunk-cast so never-mind the slurring.

The back half of this episode is a review and discussion of Iron Man 3 so **SPOILER ALERT** Be sure to send us your thoughts and review of Iron Man 3 at facebook.com/geekrevolutionradio or on Twitter @GeekRevRadio

On this week's episode, Ryan, Will and Johnny, sat down and discussed the recent news out of Disney and Lucas Film, detailing the schedule of upcoming Star Wars films.  With so many exciting things coming out of the Lucas Films camp, the crew discussed so many things to be excited about as we will likely see Star Wars Films for the next 10 years. They also took a little time to debate who would be casted in the upcoming Episode VII.  With a lot of options, and little to guess in terms of a plot line, Ryan, Will and Johnny took guesses at who they think should be in this film To close out the show, Will shared his "Airing of Grievance" about the importance of professional, especially when you speak for your organization.

On this weeks show, Ryan and Will are coming to you from their hotel high atop the Flamingo Hotel and Casino in "The Faboulous" Las Vegas. They were down there for the BEA and NAB radio conference learning about college radio, the future of broadcasting, and how to avoid the escort loitering around the hotel.

On this weeks show we spend more than a fair amount of time discussing the new MLB season and the possibility of a professional team coming to Salt Lake City. We also interviewed Matthew Tibbenham and Sutton McKee who write and produce a web series called "The Wrong Guys For The Job" in which the viewer can choose the ending of each webisode. Here is their most recent episode called "The Heist". http://youtu.be/QTGIPKESH7k For more from The Wrong Guys For The Job, visit their website at www.thewrongguys.com Next week Will and Ryan will be coming to you from the BEA radio conference in Las Vegas. If Ryan sounds like he's slurring a bit, it's because he's visited Fat Cats that day and got one of those gigantic smoothies.

Wow! What to say?  I really wish we could say this finale was all we hoped it would be, but the reality is, it sucked.  Everything about the season finale of The Walking Dead season 3 was a let down.  Even the title of the episode was a major letdown and completely misleading.  Everything from the direction to the lack of enjoyment really let us down. Will, Ryan, and Johnny held nothing back in expressing their let down on this one.  We guess one good thing to come out of it is that Andrea is dead.  Honestly, there really isn't much to say.  We just hope next season somehow comes back, but we're not holding our breath.
