If that’s not enough to pique your interest, they also get pimp slapped by the Ho Slayer, go over their recent reads, the travesty that is American Idol, and the film ‘The Ruins.’

The tension that’s been building for over a month comes to a head as Grant Miller finally returns to the studio! Luckily, the guys are able to look past his doucheyness long enough to review some comics and music, announce their next contest and add a new segment. Pimp slaps for everyone!

Another classic for the uninitiated:
This week the Savants throw their lame excuse for a format out the window and go over their personal picks from recent TV, comics, film and movie rentals. Dave goes on a bad trip with Crank, Brian digs a few gems out of the bargain bin, and Josh gives TMNT… FIVE CHUBBIES?! Will wonders never cease?

Happy Easter!
This week, the Geek Savants are joined by Mrs. Ugly as they pick apart Toyfare’s Ass Kicking Women list, and throw down on who should really make the cut.
The conversation quickly devolves into senseless ramble that can be summed up in four words:
Rosa Parks versus Zombies. Enjoy!
Outro music by Tom Jones.

After pulling a no show on us at the biggest comic convention in Northern California, fellow Geek Savant Grant Miller cancels on the episode at the last minute. And after we had made plans to record it at his house! What a douche!
So in honor of our balless comrade, we present the first installment of “group therapy.” Thanks a lot, Grant!
Oh, and in between cheap shots we recount the weekend that was Wondercon 2008.
Posted in Uncategorized on Feb 25th, 2008 No Comments »
Yep. No new episode this week. Ugs and I planned on recording this weekend at Wondercon, but we were swamped with commissions, schmoozing and general naughtiness. So instead we’ll be doing a wrap up show with Brian, our man on the floor and Grant, the bitch that faked on us.
Expect sparks to fly!
Oh, and there will be a special guest at the top of the program. See you Sunday.

Super Ugly, that is!
In this episode Grant, Dave and Ugs discuss a group of people near and dear to their hearts: Super Villians. No, not those douche bags in the Westboro Baptist Church (R.I.P. Heath Ledger), Z-List comic villians are the topic du jour and the boys serve up a hot plate of badness so good it’ll leave you hungry for more!

The writers strike continues. Super Ugly is driven slowly insane as the rest of the cast find solace in reality shows and comics. The guys review a bunch of recent reads, give Spider-man: One More Day the critical eye, and wonder just how many Darth Ho Slayers the world’s been blessed with. Excelsior!

In this special commentary episode the Geek Savants spotlight Joel Schumacher’s franchise killing opus, “Batman and Robin” and come off sounding like complete homophobes. Nothing could be further from the truth as halfway through the episode they fall asleep lovingly in each others arms.
If you aren’t easily offended by dick-loving humor and terrible comic movies this one’s for you!

With all the hoopla surrounding the writers guild strike, the Savants decided to focus their attention on a much happier group of talent– namely their personal favorite comicbook writers. It’s another fun-filled, sexually charged episode that asks the queston: Is Grant Morrison really that good?
The answer may upset you. And him.

This past weekend, the Savants traveled to Reno, Nevada to watch their very own Super Ugly (and Unified School District) perform. What ensued was an all-nighter full of booze and strippers that climaxed with the recording of this episode. It’s not pretty. In fact it’s the worst episode ever. Like the title says: Don’t Listen to This!
We’ll return to our regularly scheduled programming as soon as the alcohol poisoning subsides…
