Irregular’s Intel – Gen Con: The Experience

IrregularIntelIf you either know me personally or have listened to Geek Watch One for any length of time, you have heard me mention my love for conventions.

Another Special Edition? How Do We Do It?!

WBG-GW1 ComboThat’s right, geeksters, we have yet another special edition cross-over episode with the gang at We Be Geeks. This time it’s coverage of the recent D23 convention, so you know what that means: all things Disney! But you also know that included under that umbrella now are Marvel and Star Wars. So there’s a full range of fandoms to choose from and so much news to talk about. Of course, there’s no way we can cover it all in one vrief episode, but we tried to hit the high points so you get a good feel for what’s coming up in the next year or two in this corner of the geek-verse. So catch our latest special edition right here.

Comic-Con Cross-Over with We Be Geeks

WBG-GW1 ComboWe have another great special edition for you. This time it’s a cross-over issue with our sister show We Be Geeks. Kylan, Ken and Dawn chat with the guys about all things San Diego Comic-Con – what impressed us, surprised us and disappointed us. Plus, you know there’s going to be some fun at someone’s expense and this time around, let’s just say Kylan isn’t exactly a fan of a certain actor who’s set to play his favorite mutant. Listen to the special edition now!

We plan on having more cross-over issues with We Be Geeks in the near future. And you can catch Kylan every week on Mighty Marvel Geeks, with co-hosts Mike (from We Be Geeks) and Eric.
