Some things are happening in Civil War that need an explanation, and if you've stuck with us for this long, you deserve one. One major event was never recorded.  The other major event was recorded, but the recording has since disappeared. You need to know about both of them as Scott gives his unvarnished account of the situation, zero holds barred. He then closes with an Ask Me Anything.

This edition of Dinner 4 Geeks was recording in Scott's home studio on 6/15/19.

The cliff hanger is resolved as we reveal who showed up at our dinner just as we were wrapping up. We talk podcast feuds, Bert and Ernie, Crayons, and I Can Read Books.

Oh, we can't keep it a secret anymore. It's Steve Glosson! Glosson showed up at the table! This one is soooo much fun!

What's this?! A NEW Dinner 4 Geeks?! Well, not as such, but it's been sitting around for a couple of years yearning to burst out, so we're letting it become one with the world. It's just the two of them--Scott and Ron--and when that happens things get dark quickly and this one is no exception.

Did you think we were gone for good?  Well, we more or less are, but we've recently recovered some files that will enable us to continue telling the story of the demise of D4G. This is a fun dinner that pays tribute to fellow podcasters Professor Alan and Trentus Magnus. That and the minutia of pop culture are dissected as usual.

Just two days after Jeff unveils his wedding plans there's another dinner.  This time, Steve Glosson has made his way into Brunswick to record a Force Awakens commentary. They plan on it being the first one to hit the internet but they're beaten to the punch by Rebel Force Radio by a day. Ron and Jeff are unavailable, so Ryan, Steve, and Scott grab Thomas to join them at Barbara Jean's.

Steve and Ryan have had a simmering feud boiling for a few weeks and once they come face to face...nothing.  But it does result in some very good action figure talk.

Now, let me warn you that Barbara Jean's is a great restaurant, but it's also a tad noisy, so some sections of this podcast are more difficult to hear than usual (and that's saying something!).

Of all the tasteless episodes of D4G, this may be the tastelessest.

The gang reconvenes after taking a break over the holidays. The previous recording session had been on the evening of the Force Awakens's premiere. A variety of topics are covered herein, but it all keeps coming back to the tastelessness.

No, not really.  We  would love to have you  on as a sponsor if you would like, but we doubt McDonald's will be that sponsor.  Especially after they hear the stories in this episode.

Going through the files, I found THIS! It's a show that's a little over two years old. Recored during Jeff's hiatus, this episode features, Ryan, Ron, Scott, and Matt Colvin! It was recorded the day in November of 2014 that the title, The Force Awakens was released. You'll hear our first reactions upon hearing the title! Can't wait for the movie to come out!

The mid section? A recap of the experiences of Brusnwick, GA during the making fo the Ben Affleck flop Live By Night.

Dinner 4 Geeks Episode 125: Monkeying Around

It’s just two geeks this week, as Scott and Ron sit down to a dinner and let their minds wander in a stunning display of cogent stream of consciousness. However, it always winds up circling around to monkeys. Or Hitler, but I think that was a given.

Plus we talk about:

Absorbine, Jr.

Greg Brady’s move to the attic

Dan Curtis’s Ouvre

George Romero’s Mar’in

We try to sort out the difference between Timothy and Joseph Bottoms

Ronald’s eBay find of a Planet of the Apes short story collection

The Geeks had a reaction to the trailer for the Force Awakens. You know,  the one that aired during Monday Night Football? The one that was, like, over a year ago?

 

They also discuss how they plan to end the show when the day finally comes to put this podcast out of its misery.

Jeff and Scott compare notes on having seen John Cleese and Eric Idle live in two different cities the same week.

They also talk Football, Ac/DC, the Cult, Jimmy Page, Concerts, and a whole bunch of other stuff Ryan won't participate in discussing.

AND we FINALLY answer an email question from a listener: What if Star Wars: A New Hope had flopped?

Here it is! For those of you who have been patient with us as we allowed real life to interfere with our release schedule, we're rewarding (punishing?) you with A Week of Geeks! Each day for the next week, you'll hear a brand new episode of Dinner 4 Geeks. That means you'll get seven episodes in a row, more than we released in the second half of last year! And these episodes go wayyyyy back.  See, it's not that we haven't been having dinner. We just haven't had the time to edit the dinners into a somewhat listenable podcast. We're not promising the release schedule will be roses from here out, but we CAN say that we have over 30 dinners we haven't released and we're still recording nearly every single week, so we still have a lot to say! A lot of it is redundant and inane, but we use a lot of words when we do it.

In this episode, Scott thinks it'll be a neat idea to give his fellow geeks some prizes if they can answer Star Wars trivia questions. However, he buys a cheap ebook to get the questions from and the book proves near-incomprehensible! Stubborn to the end, Scott refuses to drop and the Geeks embark upon a maddening, frustrating Star Wars trivia quiz.

One thing I'll say about this episode, it is probably the most immediate of the 78 bazillion Force Awakens recaps out there. The Geeks (minus Ron; long story) travel a couple of hours to St. Augustine to catch the first show on The Force Awakens in IMAX 3D, and then immediately hit a restaurant to do what they do best--er, well--er, often, and that's voice boisterous opinions over meals.

 

NOTE: The background music is a bit louder than usual, as we were seated at a much larger table than usual (we all brought our families) and we were placed directly under a LOUD speaker.

Going through some older files the other day, I came across this episode that was never cleaned up and released.  I finally figured out why: it conflicted with our one and only attempt at a Final 4 Geeks contest.  However, once I opened it and began to work on it, I found it to be the dirtiest, filthiest, nastiest episode we've ever recorded. We ate while we recorded it.  You might not want to while you listen!

It's Dinner 2 Geeks again, as Jeff and Ryan are unavailable and Ron and Scott refuse to let the show go away!  Scott talks about a new theme song for his talk show and others' reactions. A little tiny Force Friday recap sort of makes its way into the discussion.  They then bemoan modern-day workplace woes. Ron has raves about the new Shout Factory internet channel. Scott has to give Ron some Episode I explanations.  Some of them...are better than others...

Get ready for this one! One of the things that interests people is all the places people's Star Wars stories are the same and where they're different.  Riley Blanton's story is about as different a Star Wars Story as we've ever heard. Like last episode's Justin Bolger, Riley was raised overseas, but Riley lived in Pakistan.It's strange, it's funny, it's touching!  It's Riley Blanton's Star Wars Story!

You know how somehtings just have a way of taking D4G totally off the rails? Which is why you love us right? Well, they guys try to talk about the D23 announcement of a Star Wars Land at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. But that only leads Scott to childhood memory of a Scooby Doo episode wherein they visit a Westworld-type amusement park. Ron thinks he's full of baloney, but is he...?

Believe it or not , the Geeks have been having their regular dinners and recording them.  They just haven't been putting them out lately.  This one being on the eve of Force Friday, we decided to put it out there. It also addresses the story of Disney's deeming Age of Ultron a "failure." PLus we talk about the passing of Wes Craven, and there's a HECK of a lot more.  Just listen up.  It's a heck of a lot of fun!

This one was almost called Dinner 2 Geeks, but the theme of women was so rampant throughout the episode, we had no choice.  Jeff is away on a camping trip and Ryan got stuck at work, so Ron and Scott have a good old-fashioned, no-holds-barred sit down.  THey disagree on Jurassic World, they talk Doctor Who, and then Ron drops the bombshell: his theory on the subtext of Jurassic World!

This episode of D4G finds us having a leisurely dinner at the end of a long week. Jeff is out, as he has found himself often this summer, but the three of us have a pleasant discussion about older comics.

Then! AS we're about to wrap up, Ron drops a bombshell on us!

Scott Gardner makes his long-awaited debut on D4G...but where are the LIT? We actually DID invite them to this dinner, but they all declined, so the foursome is Scott, Scott, J'Deane and Garrison.

This episode was actually recorded 7/11/14 at the Captain's Grille at the Yacht Club at Walt Disney World Resort. However, when Scott Ryfun's phone was destroyed in a storm a few days later, he thought it was lost forever.  However, he recently found the recording as part of an automated backup!  Now, it's yours...

The geeks get together for another fun dinner. This time, they're hot and heavy to talk about Jurassic World.  The Geeks also talk about Ron's white line fever as he recaps his trip to EternalCon to meet the Two True Freaks crew!  THis segues into a discussion of the upcoming Jekyll COmic COn, which, for those interested and youn should be, will be held December 12th on Jekyll Island!

As we try to atone for Episode 100, the geeks find that something is a bit...odd about Ron's shirt. Scott decides to randomly live score the episode, much to Ryan's chagrin.

Jeff bemoans the loss of the Savannah sand Gnats.

Ryan shows off his new Japanese imported snap together models of R2-D2 and R5-D4.

Ryan opens Mark Kalmbach's amazing gift.

Ron wonders why they only remake good movies, instead of the bad ones. IN other words, why do they remake the ones they got right instead of trying to correct the mistakes of the ones they got wrong.

The Geeks don't say goodbye to David Letterman, becasue they said goodbye to him 15 years ago.

Episode 100: #D4GCentury

Hooo-kay, you've waited a loing time for this, and...it's probably not worth the wait, but still, it's got a lot of fun moments, like Ron's first time inside the Star Wars Battle Pod! Yes, you actually go into the Battle Pod with Ron and ride...somewhere near his crotch, I think.  Best not to think about it.

 

Plus, you get to hear the entire trip down to Dave & BUster's, though it's reallly hard to hear, and as a bonus, we open with a recent dinner to let you know the Geeks are, in fact, still eating!

OKay, so we hit a few bumps on the way to episode 100.  We'll explain some of them in the episode.  We'll also talk about Marvel's Star Wars comics, the latest Star Wars news, we pay tribute to the late Leonard Nimoy, and we discuss an article that mentions that there are certain intense fandoms that dilike most of the material out there. Ron makes a discovery about Night Court's Ellen Foley, which leads to...Markie Post...mmm, Markie Post...oh, excuse me.  Anyway, we also get into Ron's revelation.  There's something he did the other day that he hasn't done in twenty years.

I have no idea why, but variations on this phrase keep coming up throughout the show. This week, the geeks talk life, relationships, and old video games. Scott then begins to unspool a semi-encyclopedic knowledge of Cinemax movies, much to the other guys' horror.

Episode 89: Cataloguing Christmas! A DInner 4 Geeks Christmas Special!

The Geeks, together again, celebrate Christmas together with the telling of tales, with a discussion of their Core 4 Christmas Specials. This, of course, means they can't agree on the ground rules and things fall apart quickly.  They also have a gift exchange that leads to a lot of conversation, as usual. The Geeks also recap Jekyll Con (a rousing success!) and Ron shows us his Christmas Card from Professor Alan. But listen for the gift exchange.  It's a classic.  After that Scott, feeling bad for the fact that he didn't get the episode out on time and instead put it out on Christmas Eve, decides to slather on the Christmas Cheer, resulting in our longest episode ever! It even includes visits from Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, C-3PO, R2-D2, Fred Flinstone, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Jack Skellington, among others.

The Geeks leap into action the night after Thanksgiving, and they've brought a few surprises...

1. Jeff returns! After several months off, we manage to persuade Jeff to attend a recording. Of course, it took a fancy schmancy trip to Jekyll Island to get him on board, but still...

2. Steve Glosson, the Podcast King of Southeast Georgia, joins us and meets the Geeks for the first time. Steve is the host of Geek Out Loud!, Rock Out Loud!, Mark Out Loud!, Disney Vault Talk, Rebel Yell, Know What I'm Sayin' and a gazillion more.

In our unique, ADD way we break down the Star Wars teaser, and we even go to the bathroom during the proceedings.

WARNING: THere's a LOT of background noise in this episode, so be warned.  It's fun, but it's boisterous.  This week we really are Geeks Out Loud!

Ryan pulls a no-show and in the meantime, Ron, Matt and Scott talk about the death ofSaturday morning cartoons and give their remembrances and recollections.  Ron makes inappropriate Stephen COllins jokes, but we really think it's because he's hurt that one of his favorite actors has been revealed as a scumbag.  Then, there's the strange case of Conrad Bain and his twin brother Bonar.  No, really.

In a rare moment, Scott talks about a change he would have made to Attack of teh Clones.  Matt talks about his disappointment with Sin City: A Dame to Kill For. We briefly touch on the new Doctor nd Guardians of the Galaxy. Oh, and Ace Frehley's new album debuted in the Billboard Top 10 this week.  We can't NOT talk about that. Plus, not one but TWO drunken renditions of Happy Birthday by the patrons of the Zachry's bar. It just doesn't get any better than this.

My Star Wars Story is the Shoah Project for Star Wars. It came to D4G's Ryan out of the ether, and when he pitched the initial idea to Scott Ryfun, Scott flipped out.  The two spent the next few weeks refining the concept before going out and recording interviews with Star Wars fans you know VERY well and ones you've never met before!

Jeff is going on temporary hiatus while he takes care of some business that looks to be a scheduling conflict with the podcast for a while.  And of course, it takes TWO geeks to fill his seat. Sound kinda gross, but you know what I mean.  And for those of you who will miss Jeff, I have several shows in the bank with Jeff on them that we will roll out from time to time. On this episode, the geeks pay their loving tribute to Robin Williams as only they can.

Scott gives the geeks the gifts he got them on his Walt Disney World trip.  Then he harangues them for the show without him. Ryan puts forth his idea for a Star Wars museum on Disney property. Which leads to a discussion about what Disney should be doing with its Star Wars presence in its theme parks. OH, and there's some Alderaan thrutherism thrown in for good measure

Well, here we are.  75 dinners with the geeks.  And to be honest, at least half of us thought we'd never get this far.  Strange coincidence, exactly half of us are missing for this episode, but we've brought along our youngfrineds Matt and Sam to fill the Geek Seats, and they do a terrific job.  We talk a little about Entertainment Weekly Avengers cover story, some of the fantastic offerings from TwoMorrows Publishing, the fact that Books-a-Million can't do math, what it will take for digital to kill print, Matt tells the story of the time George Perez hugged him (great story!), the problem with comic shops, teh Star Wars black series Bespin Luke figure, web surfing and driving, the effect of getting older on collecting, Scott's official yet unofficial Star Wars Christmas CD, Correspondence with Meco, The Falcon as Cap and a chick Thor, what ever happened to the Domino's Pizza archvillain the Noid, the pronunciation of Ms. Tree's name, Futurama and Seinfeld, the death of Marvel Essentials and what's next, and the sad story of Miracle Phone.  Seriously.  That's all in one episode.  Don't ask me how, but we did it.

Episode 74: Misssissippi Jackson-An Assistant Editor's Month Spectacular

All right, so here goes.  This is truly an assistant editor's masterpiece if ever there was one.  I (Scott) was out of town last week and the guys decided to fly without me.  Yes, the episode is late, because, well, it's assistant editor's month.  And no, I have not heard it at all.  I am uploading is sight unseen, er, unheard. God help us all...

Okay, Apes months was last month, but we were having trouble getting together during June, so we had to do it near the end of June.  And then, Scott had to travel seven hours to Pensacola when he would have rather been subjecting himself to the torture of editing this show.  So, at long last, it's here.  And if you think we stick to Apes for the entire show, then you haven't listened to D4G before.  Welcome aboard.  It's a fun ride!

Oh, the trouble with selling scooters on Craig's List.  And that's not a euphemism. Then the talk is about toys and what it it took to make a toy get our nattention, what we did with them, and how we paid for them. Jeff and Scott discuss the anniversary 2-CD set KISS40. And then our attention turns to our comments on X-Men: Days of Future Past. Ron's off next week, so enjoy him while you can!

This week, the Geeks getinto a rant about the "diversity" issue with the Star Wars VII cast.  They also jump headlong into a discussion of their siblings and whether or not they share their geekiness.  And THEN Ron talks about his childhood days as a gold miner in Alaska.  I wish I were kidding, but I'm not.

This week!  Finally!  Thank God!  We have a winner!  The Final Four Geeks comes to a fiery and spectacular conclusion as we pick a winner.  Will it be Star Wars Episode IV or Doctor Who?  Come on, you're not an idiot.  FIgure it out for yourself.  Also, we give away the Raiders of the Lost Ark poster signed by Dennis Muren and Ben Burtt!  Plus we announce our next big shameless ploy to get five-star votes!  We also get heavy into this Star Wars thing: from the casting announcements to the destruction of the EU.  And Jack is back and the Geeks react to the return of 24!

This episode of Dinner 4 Geeks was recorded live 5/6/14 at Loco's Grill and Pub on St. Simons Island, GA. http://locosgrill.com

Episode 64: And Then There Were Two...

The Final Four Geeks is narrowed down to two!  Heck, we may choose a winner before next year's starts!  This week we talk about Jeff and Ron's appearance on Back to the Bins, the seldom-seen film Odd Jobs, the Veronica Mars movie, Gravity, AND we launch into a feud with another podcast!

This week, you get two--count 'em, TWO!--weeks' worth of D4G, including our incredible Final Four Geeks selections!  Will the Cinderella Easy Bake Oven survive to the Final Four? In this episode we also discuss the impending demise of the Expanded Universe.  Mark this one, too: Ryan says he will not buy any of the new action figures for Episodes VII, VIII, and IX.  Write that down.  We WILL hold it against him later.  Ron recaps GnomeCon 2014 and fondly recalls the Con-Funk.  We then all try to quit the podcast and compare ourselves to the Beatles.  Is that a stretch?  Listen and see...wait, listen and see? We talk about creative playtime during our childhoods. Also, parody mags like Mad, Cracked, Crazy, Sick, and Stupid.  And we name drop podcasters like mad men. The Leylands, Trentus Magnus, Spataro, the whole nine yards.
