ThisWeekInGeek

ThisWeekInGeek has been pumping out episodes since 2007, racking up over 1,400 installments. That is not a typo. Hosted by Mike The Birdman Dodd with rotating co-hosts like Alex The Producer and Damien for specialty segments, this Canadian show operates more like a mini network than a single podcast. The variety is where things get interesting. Beyond the main news and review episodes that drop multiple times per week, you get specialty shows like Earth vs Soup (classic sci-fi film deep dives), The Spellbook (tabletop RPG coverage), and Loose Cannon (movie analysis). It is basically a buffet for geeks, gamers, and nerds -- you can pick the segments that match your interests and skip what does not land. The show sits at 4.4 stars from 31 reviews, with listeners praising the insightful hosts and fun facts sprinkled throughout. Some reviewers mention occasional audio quality hiccups, which is fair for a show that produces this much content. But the sheer volume and range make it a strong pick if you want a geek culture show that covers ground most single-host podcasts simply cannot. It is the kind of show where you start with one episode about a gaming release and end up three hours deep in a discussion about 1960s sci-fi cinema.
