| Season 2: Ep 4: Desolation of The Hobbit | 11 Feb 2025 | 00:43:13 | |
Lo, for a final gathering hath the fellowship convened, to share their fervent thoughts upon the cherished trilogy of moving images known as The Hobbit. Shouldst thou have lent thine ear to the maiden episode, thou wouldst discern the scarce affection for these latter-day renditions of a tale once deemed flawless. Hark and listen, and share thy musings with us! | |||
| S2 Ep3: The Hobbit: The Rant of 3 Poddists | 03 Feb 2025 | 00:37:59 | |
Dost thou hold thoughts upon the films of the Hobbit? Indeed, we possess a multitude of opinions! Art thou inclined to share thy musings? Aye! We are most fervent in our discourse. Gather ye with us, in mirth and passion, as we speak, with fire in our hearts, of the cherished tome brought forth to the realm of living flesh! | |||
| S2 Ep2: Act 1, Scene 2: Gandalf and Mark's Hobbit Hole | 27 Jan 2025 | 00:44:58 | |
In the embrace of Elven twilight, we crafted a tome of matters that beckoned to our tongues, a compilation grander than our minds had foreseen. After a brief parley, we resolved that our most fervent discourse would be on the tale of hobbits, a saga spun by the Master himself, Tolkien. We soon discerned that this venture would stretch beyond a mere week, and thus we find ourselves adrift in endless musings, encircled by the echoes of time. So, should you seek a wistful sojourn through the verdant lands of Middle-earth, take heed, for this journey is tailored for your heart! Or! We wrote a really big list of stuff we want to talk about, picked the Hobbit and waxed lyrical. Fancy it? https://linktr.ee/ageektragedypod | |||

| Ep 30: A Big Fat Geek Christmas! | 25 Dec 2024 | 00:57:45 | |
And low did the sunrise on a most festive day and cast its radiance into the places where people preparing themselves for merriment as such they could. Good, the sun thought to itself, people seem pleased and are making merry; all is well with the world. Then, upon the horizon, it saw the coming of the Tragedy of Geeks and realised that they had come to force themselves in amidst the festivities for good or for ill. The sun decided that it had seen enough and buggered off so as not to have to listen to nonsense on a day such as this. Because it had left there was no day. So there. Anyway - This is our very special Christmas release, festive special with special guests and messages galore. So if you are cooking Christmas dinner and are looking for some company then look no further than our glorious podders. Happy Christmas And a Noel Coward to you all dear folks. | |||

| Ep 9: Wandering the Wastes: Fantasy Forest Recap | 31 Jul 2024 | 01:01:37 | |
Not long ago we made the journey to Cheltenham to attend the Fantasy Forest, specifically as part of the brand new Post Apoc section, “The Wastes”. Needless to say: We had a LOT of fun; so much so in fact that when we got back we spent several hours, accidentally, shooting the breeze about how incredible our experiences were. Whilst we were there we also managed to record a pod in front of a small audience and scoop up a whole host of special guests who recorded some short interviews. This episode, Wandering the Wastes, covers the first half of the big pod that we did when we got back and an interview with the wonderful Natasha Achilleos whose husband was the legendary painter and illustrator Chris Achilleos. His work includes book covers and series for Dr Who and Star Trek, concept art for Willow, cover art for Whitesnake and, of course, the Fighting Fantasy series of works.

| Ep7: Timothy Zahn and a Game of Clones! Star Wars Part 3 | 15 Jul 2024 | 01:07:28 | |
The Podcasters have returned to the rooms in their homes where they record in an attempt to rescue the final episode of Star Wars content from the clutches of the excellent music of Jon Williams. Which they could talk about forever but have moved onto books and Disney. Little did Mark know that the author TIMOTHY ZAHN had secretly written a best selling trilogy of books in the 90’s nor that the Clone Wars cartoons existed. When things are completely explained about the ultimate fate of Star Wars in the hands of Disney will it spell certain doom for his love of the franchise? And ultimately do our podders still think that Star wars still tells the inspiring tale of a small band of rebels struggling to restore freedom to the galaxy...
