Episode 140 - Magneto Appleseed

Welcome to Episode 140 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, ALL of the Geeks (Jeff, Jake, Mitch, Nate and Matt Orrin) are joined by Carlos Madrid and are back in the space formerly inhabited by Sexpot Comedy, right above Mutiny Information Cafe, for another packed episode of geeky goodness.  

We talked more Titans, because it SO GOOD!!  Seriously, this show has been delivering each week and it's gonne suck when the season is done.  Will Dick become Nightwing this season?  Who is the big bad?  Did Starfire just kill Raven?  We assume the answer to that one is no, but the show made it seem like its a possibility.  This last episode introduced Wonder Girl, Donna Troy, and mentioned both Wonder Woman and the Justice League.  

We're also excited for the upcoming CW crossover event, Elseworlds, which will introduce some new characters such as Batwoman and Lois Lane.  We know a little about the crossover, and talk as in depth as possible.  We also got news that they casted the role of Renee Montoya (aka the Question) in the new Birds of Prey movie filming next year.  Hopefully, DC can start making movies as good as their TV.  

Marvel, on the other hand, has no problem with their movies.  The new Captain Marvel trailer just dropped and we paused recording to watch it.  We've all seen it multiple times since because it looks real good.  We talk more about the character that Jude Law is playing, which is not the possibly hinted at Mar-vell.  Unfortunately, they wont be including any of the Netflix characters especially since Daredevil was just cancelled.  That leaves Punisher and Jessica Jones, both of which will probably be cancelled after their next seasons.  If they ever did use those characters, would they recast them?  We hope not with some, especially Punisher.  

It almost Christmas time, and Duck Tales (Woo Ooo) just had a great Christmas episode.  Turns it that Scrooge doesn't hate Christmas, its just his only day off each year and he wants to unwind with his buds, which happen to be the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future.  This brought up everyones favorite version of the Christmas Carol.  Some say Scrooged, others say the Mickey Mouse version.  What is your definitive version?

We ended with discussion on the Caped Crusader, and his fighting prowess.  We wondered if Dick has ever fought Batman for any reason and, if so, could he beat Batman?  Could Batman beat Daredevil, or even Iron Fist, in a fight?  Listen and find out our thoughts!
