Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us geeks go tick!  We bring you an episode that has been five years in the making.  An episode that has been in the back of our minds for this amount of time, and a topic that has been in the hat even longer. Being that this is the 30th anniversary of one of the greatest cinematic trilogies of all time, it was only appropriate that for the 100th episode we talk about the Back to the Future Trilogy.  Rick, Cole, Catherine, and Roy are joined by our special guest, BTTF cosplayer, and BTTF Superfan, David Martineau  as we celebrate the 30th anniversary of this series, as well as celebrate 100 episodes!  Join in on the celebration!  Thank you for listening!  THANK YOU for sticking with us for 100 episodes!  Stay Geeky and join us for episode 101 where we talk about JAWS!

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us Geeks go tick!  We bring you our 98th episode in which Rick and Andrew dish out the play by play about the Steven Soderberg film HAYWIRE!  They talk about the awesome fight scenes, wax poetic about Gina Carrano, and wonder what the hell did happen in Barcelona.  Enjoy and join us tomorrow for episode 99!   

Welcome back to the United States of Geekdom, your fluent speakers of all things geek!  We bring you (finally after another much needed few weeks to recharge our batteries) our 97th episode in which Rick is joined by Francisco and Tyler from USG West Coast as we take another look at adaptation.  On the docket this time, Stephen King, one of the most adapted authors ever, and how some of his books turned out for the better in terms of the movie, versus how some other of his books turned out as movies.  Enjoy, and join us tomorrow for more USG as we bring you another volume of Watch It! 

Time to crack open a Corona, kick back, relax, and enjoy some high octane thrills the only way that the United States of Geekdom can provide!  Rick, Andrew, and Roy take a look at the Fast and Furious series in a big way!  Who'd have thought that a film series about street racing could become a series about multiple heists, and become one of the biggest box office draws of all time?  The Fast and Furious films did and in the most epic of fashion too!  Join us as we take that rich person's car and jump it between buildings with no repercussions at all!  Thanks for listening!  stay geeky!  

Welcome once again to Rick and Andy's Summer Movie Preview!  Rick and Andrew once again do their look at the upcoming movies for the summer and then (as per usual) they take a look at what is coming out for the rest of the year.  They get a little bit potty mouthed.  Okay they get a lot a bit potty mouthed.  Laughs are had, movies are discussed and they geek out over some of the biggest movies of the summer.  Enjoy and thanks for listening!  BONUS!  Rick is later joined by Roy and Ben of Rediscovering the Magic as they take a look at the Star Wars trailer that dropped earlier in April.  Join them as they take a look at what is sure to be the biggest movie of the year!  

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us geeks go tick!  We bring you out 95th episode in which we talk about villains.  Or at least try to.  Let's be honest. We go off the rails pretty quick in this episode and never quite recover.  Rather than edit it down to feature the conversation about villains, Rick decided it best to keep the show in its entirety.  That said, we get blue in this episode so the dialogue is a bit on the adult side but this is the USG at their absolute funniest and raunchiest.  Enjoy, next episode we get Fast and Furious!  Thanks for listening!  Stay Geeky!  

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us geeks go tick!  We bring you our 94th episode, in which we talk about one of the funniest geeky phenomena to hit cable TV in the late 1980s, only to become a cult classic and forever change the way we see movies.  We are talking about Mystery Science Theater 3000!  Join Rick, Roy, Cole, and Catherine as they take a loving look at this funny and amazing show!  Thanks for listening!  Stay geeky!  

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us Geeks go tick!  We bring you our 93rd episode, which has us discussing the genre of television that was very prevalent during the 1980s, the "very special episode."  Rick, Cole, and Roy get into this topic the only way that can.  With lots of inappropriateness.  No.  Really folks, we get adult with this episode.  With good reason.  That said, enjoy the episode.  Next episode will be coming to you sooner than the Very Distant Future that it entails....

Hey everybody Rick here.  I would first like to apologize for the lack of activity from the USG.  I have had a lot of personal stuff to sift through (some bad, some good, some REALLY bad, and some REALLY REALLY good) and the podcast has unfortunately fallen by the wayside as a result.  It is hardly what I would see as the idea for the show and I am working on trying to get things back on track and this is the first thing out the gate.  We have a couple of shows already in the can but I figured it would be the most appropriate thing to do first is put out the annual Oscar show.  Again, I am joined by Jim Dirkes of the Film Thugs Movie Show as we take a look at the winners of the 2015 Academy Awards show.  Enjoy, thanks for listening, and keep an eye out for more from us very soon!  

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us geeks go tick! We bring you our 92nd episode, in which Rick and Andy talk about the awesomeness that is Justice League Unlimited!  This is the show that pushed the bar even further than what had been previously established in Batman the Animated Series, Superman the Animated Series,and Justice League. Rightfully so, this particular episode pays homage to this amazing groundbreaking series that featured more than 50 distinct heroes and villains!  Enjoy and thanks for listening!

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us geeks go tick!  We bring you our 90th episode which takes things in a slightly different direction.  A while back, Rick and Andrew sat down and recorded a series of shows where they talk about movies that may or may not have slipped through the cracks.  Hanna is definitely one of those movies that managed to slip under the radar for a lot of fans, but that does not make it any less fun!  Rick and Andrew get into detail about the movie so be warned that spoilers are abound!  Thanks for listening!  Stay Geeky!  

Welcome to the United States of Geekdom, the podcast that talks about what makes us Geeks go tick!  We bring you our 89th episode where Rick is joined by his buddy Chris Lord from the fantastic Universal Studios website, INSIDE UNIVERSAL!  They take a look at a lot of the upcoming stuff, for both the Hollywood and Florida parks, as well as reminisce about their experiences working at Universal Studios Hollywood.  Be sure to check out the website because it REALLY is a great place to get caught up on the news about the parks!  Enjoy, thanks for listening, and stay geeky! 

We here at Cult Film Fanatics would be remiss if we did not take the time to pay tribute to the late great Robin Williams. While starring in iconic and Oscar worthy performances and making us laugh, he has also starred in many films today considered cult classics. On this episode our panel will focus on three of them in particular: Popeye The Movie, Death To Smoochy, and Hook. So join us as we pay tribute to the late great Robin Williams.
