Joey breaks things, but he doesn't break hearts.

This week we chat with our friend & filmmaker Joey Goldsmith (aka Joey Breaks Things, aka Duke Lazor) - We chat about how he got into filmmaking, creating  niche comedy, how he turned failure into a positive thing, and so much more. - We go on lots of geeky rabbit trails on this one, including discussing all the announcements from SDCC, Synthwave, Swamp Thing, and the list goes on. Take a listen! ***There is a quick, slight Spider-Man: Far From Home spoiler at 1:01:32...lasts about 10 seconds*** Check out Joey's website here - https://joeygoldsmith.net/ - GoFundMe for Craig Harvey

Episode VIII - Rise of the Star Wars fanboy

This week we got to chat with Randy Broadwater, one of the nicest geeks around, and an expert on all things Star Wars. We talked about how he got into writing, and some of his books. Randy also discussed his depression and anxiety, and how he is currently trying to cope with it. Of course, we also had to talk about Star Wars, and that is a bulk of the episode. Matt & Ash also discuss Stranger Things 3 and Matt fanboys over Spider-Man: Far From Home.  . . To find out more about Randy's books, check out his website here - https://authenticentertainment.net/

Just a chat between friends

In this episode, Ash & Matt chat about a variety of topics on the day before ID4. We talk about random movies, excitement for Stranger Things 3 (it was not out yet when we recorded this!), the Mission Impossible franchise, and more. We also discuss how we handle anxiety attacks, and how Matt is learning to cope with depression. He also discusses why he had to step away from major social media platforms for good, and goes into more detail about possibly moving Mental Geek interaction away from social media in the future & why it's important. Check it out!

The Constant Gardener (the human, not the book/movie)

This week we are joined by Ash's wife, Heather. She chats with us about being a teacher, mother, and her love of gardening. We discuss mental health for not only herself, but how they handle it as parents, how she handles it as a teacher, and more. We also learn about how she met Ash, and also how peeing is good for composting. That's the important stuff right there. - Also, we are trying a slightly different format for the show, and have brought it down to a PG-13 rating. I hope you enjoy this one!
