The Geek Speak Show

On this month's Issues of the Day, Henry & Emily are joined by Linds from Lind's Soapbox on Instagram. Henry asks a simple question: Do we really need a trailer for a movie like Avengers: Doomsday? That leads to another related issue: Have we gotten to a point where there is just too much released for movies? In the second segment, Emily wonders whether the upcoming Supergirl movie should cover the events from the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic or should it just be an origin story? Henry brings up the elephant in the room: Will it matter because we still have people that won't see it just because it's SuperGIRL? The Geek Speak Show is taking a short Summer Vacation. The crew will return in Avengers: DoomsDa...no, on Wednesday, July 15th.

Ricardo Delgado is a Hollywood Concept Designer & also a writer & illustrator who created the Eisner Award-winning series Age of Reptiles. He has a new illustrated novel coming soon called Vampyre: A Costa Rican Folktale. Ricardo visits with Henry to talk about it, why this is such a personal story for him and how it differs from the typical vampire lore we're familiar with. Plus, you'll hear Ricardo & Henry geek out over classic monster films and Spanish-language horror films from when they were both kids. After that, Henry welcomes director Nick Bailey to the show. Nick has a new documentary called She Was Here, which tells the true story of Heather O'Rourke's life & career. The film will be having its World Premiere on Monday & Tuesday, February 9th & 10th at the Laemmle theatre. The episode wraps up with Henry, Emily & Shanclen sharing their picks for the Book Club & letting you know where you can watch Shanclen live and meet Emily in person.

The Geek Speak Show kicks off its 16th season! Henry & Shanclen are back, along with their new co-host, Emily Mata. After a new feature that'll help you keep track of cons & other events, Henry & Emily welcome Ethan H. Calk to the show. Ethan is the writer/editor of When Aliens Attack! It's an upcoming sci-fi comedy animated series and Ethan talks about how it was created, including why going with AI-generated animation. After the Book Club, Henry issues a challenge to Shanclen: In celebration of Star Trek's 60th Anniversary later this year, will he finally start watching Star Trek episodes? If Shanclen agrees to that challenge, where should he start?

On the final episode for 2025, Henry & Shanclen, along with Geek Off The Street's Marc Pope & Trent Tucker, begin with the final Issues of the Day for the year. Only two topics: Why Netflix winning the bid to purchase Warner Bros. Discovery ISN'T as bad as all the "experts" have been bemoaning & why talking during movies in the theater IS bad, as everyone SHOULD be saying. Then, The Geek Speak Awards Show returns! The guys award the best of the year in comic books, video games, shows and movies. Yes, the WTF Award is back, too. (Meaning the worst movie of 2025.) The guys also look forward to what they're most anticipating in 2026. The Geek Speak Show will return in January 2026.

This week, Henry highlights a new sci-fi film starring Tom Felton called Altered. Since Tom was a little bit busy on Broadway, Henry talks to director Timo Vueronsola & actress Elizaveta Bugulova about the film. Timo talks about the inspiration for the film and why he chose Tom Felton as the lead. Elizaveta talks about her character (Chloe) and what it was like meeting Tom Felton for the first time...after having grown up as a Harry Potter fan and Draco Malfoy being her favorite character. Then, Shanclen joins Henry and they talk about what's been happening in Geek Culture, including a spoiler-filled discussion of Predator: Badlands.
