The Lazy Geeks
The Time Has Come
Season 13, Ep. 455
•
The time has come, people. If you read my blog post last week, you know this is our final episode of The Lazy Geeks podcast. We are moving on from it, and have launched our replacement show, The Truly Pointless Podcast.
If it sounds familiar it’s because we did it before. All 28 episodes of that previous series are available. We will drop new episodes in January. As for this show, it was fun. Hope you enjoyed it and follow us on our next step. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

8. Hulu Goes Buh-Bye
23:48||Season 15, Ep. 8We are back with some of the under reported news stories from the past week, August 3 through 8. Hulu is going buh-bye (sort of), parts of the US Constitution disappeared, Digital Foundry goes independent, and more password sharing crackdowns. Not only that some sites are phishing for Facebook likes. Who does that?

6. The Marvel Issue
01:32:03||Season 15, Ep. 6Two things: (one) we are back, and (two) I apologize. The Lazy Geeks are back discussing things that are impacting our lives on a daily basis and I explain more in the episode. The apology is for being a bit long. I decided to go unscripted and this is what I get. I promise, I won’t do that again. But enjoy it, anyway.

5. The Theater Problem
44:35||Season 15, Ep. 5We are doing things a little differently since The Lazy Geeks is under the Gen-Xer Pod banner. This week we cover news, a bitter Australian diner owner, and the problem with people not seeing movies and studios are the reason for it.

4. The Toxic Fandom
28:33||Season 15, Ep. 4Episode 4: The Toxic Fandom. The internet is plagued by fandom toxicity. Where does it come from? Why do older people hate new content? It isn’t as hard to believe as you may think. Also, we discuss Xbox price hikes for Christmas, Polygon sold, GTA VI pushed back, and Spotify cashes in on judgment against Apple.
