Article by: Witney Seibold

I actually write an article predicting the winners of the 2010 Academy Awards, but the good people at Geekscape thought that it was a bit too straightforward.

PODCAST: Witney Seibold on Geekscape: “Rolling with the Big Boys”

Jonathan London, the founder of the website Geekscape.net not only wrangles and edits articles for his pop-culture ‘blog, but also runs a weekly video podcast where he and a guest discuss the recent trends in genre movies, comic books, video games, and cult TV shows.

Luckily, he kept the conversation around 1997. We talk about the 1977 film “House” and “Zardoz” and playing old video games. (more…)
