Episode 138 - Curtis Has Terrific Balls!

Welcome to Episode 138 of Broadcast Geeks! On this podcast we discuss all things geek and nerd related, provided our DVR’s have space and our Netflix accounts are our own and none others.  This week, the a trio of Geeks (Jeff, Jake and Matt Orrin) are back in the space inhabited by Sexpot Comedy, right above Mutiny Information Cafe, for another packed episode of geeky goodness.  

Talk started with Titans, only available on the DC Universe streaming service.  This show has been great and we talked a lot about it.  The last episode featured Jason Todd, who appears to have some issues.  Was he a rebound for Batman after Dick leaves him?  We're looking forward to the Doom Patrol show, especially after their appearance on Titans.  We're also looking forward to Swamp Thing, which could change EVERYTHING in the comic book world we all love.  Will Constantine show up on the show?  Will there be other magic users such as Zatanna?  Guess we'll have to wait and find out.

Talk of villians led us to the topic of modern day villians, such as Jeff Bezos.  He appears to be our version of Lex Luthor, bald head and all!  Hopefully, Elon Musk doesn't follow suit and continues to do the cool things he is doing.  Someone will need the resources to take down Bezos, and Elon could be the one to do it.  Speaking of villians, we switched over to the topic of Gifted and some of its high profile characters such as Lorna aka Polaris.  As the daughter of Magneto, will she take on his mantle?  Word is that she will put on the cool Magneto helmet.  Also, can the Strucker dad burn himself with his lava hands?  We talked about whether or not mutants can be effected by their own powers.  What are your thoughts?

Next up we talk about the CW shows, with Arrow still being on top.  Though, how does "evil" Laurel know how to do her job of DA?  She wasnt a lawyer, so is it something anyone can do?  We also talked about Curtis, aka Mr. Terrific, and how terrific his balls are.  His character is starting to get good again.  The other shows have been pretty good, with Black Lightning really turning it up. 

Our featured actor this week was John Ritter, starting with his role in the original IT.  He was a very underappreciated actor and had some really good roles.  Then we were all over the board talking about Agents of Shield, Flash Gordon, and Harry Potter.  Give it a listen and tell us what you think.
