GGS 11.39 Hot Vampire Summer 2: Bon Temps Boogaloo

This week at Geek Girl Soup, it’s back to more hot vampires with… “The Northman”! What, you say? That’s not a vampire flick! Well, it all depends on how you look at it. Just ask Alexander Skarsgard (aka “True Blood’s” Vampire Eric Northman—NORTHMAN, ahem). He’ll tell you that this is essentially Eric’s backstory. So, yes, vampire flick!

GGS 11.38 Christmas in July

Merry Christmas in July! We’ve got a treat for you this year. No standard Christmas fare. Oh, no. We went in a different direction. We gifted (ugh, not too keen on that verb!) ourselves a super-fun non-Christmas film (“Everything Everywhere All at Once”) and a sort-of Christmas flick that was so junky as to be uproarious fun (“Christmas Twister”).

GGS 11.37 Seven Deadly Sins: Gluttony

This week we’re officially back on our theme of the 7 Deadly Sins with gluttony: “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”! Artificial intelligence. The environment. Climate. Disaster. Nerds. Daddy issues. Science, bitches. And, yes, pure gluttony. Kinda the perfect movie for Geek Girl Soup!

GGS 11.36 Justice Is Served

Geek Girl Soup is not just a bit disappointed with the recent SCOTUS rulings on all the things. So, for Kelly’s birthday, she chose the theme of Justice is Served. We watched three films and one documentary series in which justice is, yes, served—to our approval: The Innocence Files, My Cousin Vinny, The Rainmaker, and And Justice for All.

GGS 11.35 One & Done 7: Mad Dogs

This week, the Geek Girls (and guy) take a trip to Belize… but not that kind! (Yes, Saul Goodman returns on July 11th, but that’s another podcast!) We’re back on our monthly One-and-Done theme with Amazon Prime’s “Mad Dog’s” (U.S.).

GGS 11.30 One & Done 6: Terriers

What happens when you pair up an alcoholic ex-cop and his best friend who also happens to be a former criminal? You get “Terriers” (Hulu), this month’s entry into Geek Girl Soup’s One and Done series. Airing just 13 episodes in 2010 before being canceled, “Terriers” follows Hank Dolworth (Donal Logue) and Britt Pollack (Michael Raymond-James) as two unlicensed private investigators who take rather extreme license in doing things their way—which is not always exactly the legal way.

GGS 11.28 May of Thrones

It’s May of Thrones, Part 1! Yeah, we could talk Thrones all month long. But we’re doing it in two parts. In this first episode, we discuss highlights from what got us hooked on the series (hint: “The things I do….”), s1 e9 “Baelor,” Arya’s journey, expectations of book readers, HBO Max’s excellent listing of “the best of” by character (sorry, Bran!), s7 e1 “The Spoils of War,” some of our favorite quotes, and some other random favorite moments from the entire series.

GGS 11.27 Seven Deadly Sins: LUST

This week at Geek Girl Soup, we’re back to the Seven Deadly Sins with Lust. We watched “Lust Stories” and “The Principles of Pleasure,” both on Netflix and both centered on women… which led to an entire discussion on the current anti-woman movement happening in this country. Yes, that’s exactly what it is, an anti-woman movement.

GGS 11.26 One & Done 5: Profit

This week at Geek Girl Soup, we’re back to our monthly One-and-Done series with Fox’s 1996 drama “Profit.” Raised in a Gracen & Gracen cardboard box (yes, you read that right), Jim Profit gets a job at G&G after a senior vice president has a “heart attack” and dies. Profit wants to run the whole company and will do anything he can to assume power, including framing his boss for murder.
