The Geeks OUT Podcast: The Blizzard of our Discontent

The Geeks OUT Podcast

Opinions, reviews, incisive discussions of queer geek ideas in pop culture, and the particularly cutting brand of shade that you can only get from a couple of queer geeks all in highly digestible weekly doses.

In this week’s episode of the Geeks OUT Podcast, Kevin is joined by Teri Yoshiuchi, as they discuss the lawsuit (alleging widespread harassment) that is blowing up at Activision-Blizzard, the new trailer for Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and celebrate our first look at the Chucky series which features a queer lead in This Week in Queer.
