Ever wondered how a world partially crafted by George R.R. Martin would translate into a gaming experience? Anthony takes us on a journey through his harrowing adventures in "Elden Ring," battling fearsome foes and navigating an intricate lore-packed universe. We also reflect on the heartfelt feedback we received from our Lilo and Stitch episode, especially from our enthusiastic listeners in France. Plus, Dakota finally got around to watching "New Mutants," the final installment in the Fox X-Men series, and let's just say it sparked some lively discussions.
Disney fans, brace yourselves! The recent D23 announcements are nothing short of exhilarating. From a new Cars Land and a Villains-themed land in Orlando to an Indiana Jones ride replacing Dinosaur, there’s so much to look forward to. However, it's not all smooth sailing—current attractions like Tiana's Bayou Adventure are facing some hiccups. Meanwhile, we can't help but wonder what the future holds for Marvel's announced projects, given the recent inconsistencies in MCU's timeline.
"New Mutants" may not have lived up to its horror-centric hype, but its student-film like charm and unique character dynamics offer plenty to unpack. We delve into the backstories of key mutants like Magik, Wolfsbane, and Sunspot, etc. while pondering on any potential future within the X-Men universe within the MCU. Despite its many flaws, there are redeeming qualities worth discussing. And stay tuned, because after a brief break from the Fox X-Men series, we'll be back with episodes covering "Deadpool" and "Wolverine," diving deep into the iconic characters that have shaped the X-Men franchise.

Anthony and Dakota, your trusty guides through the ruins and revelations of the future past, are about to serve up a platter of post-apocalyptic ponderings. Vaulting straight into 2296, we muse over the peculiar coincidence of our episode number not aligning with the bomb-drop year in the Fallout universe, chuckling at the mishap while unpacking the enduring message that war never changes. We invite you into our conversation about the revived fascination with the Fallout series, analyzing how new life has been breathed into its dusty corners, not only through games like Fallout 76 and Fallout 4 but also the Fallout TV series on Amazon Prime that's stretching the boundaries of the lore we treasure.
Buckle up for a double scoop of tales and insights as we whisk you away to Disney World, sharing the laughter and sweat of a 10-mile race, complete with Disney characters cheering us on. Then, we set sail through the grand narrative oceans of "One Piece," offering a slice of our own lives with the practicality of choosing to fly instead of drive for a quick escapade. We're also peeling back the layers of our podcast, shedding the music to sharpen the focus on our voices and the stories we bring.

Strap yourselves in, fellow geeks, as Dakota and Anthony commemorate their 77th episode of Project Geekology with a rousing throwback to the game-changing "X-Men" movie from 2000. We're not just talking about Hugh Jackman's claws and charisma as Wolverine; we delve into the film's monumental impact on the superhero genre and our own geeky paths. Our nostalgia doesn't end there, though—we also tip our hats to "Blade," the unsung hero that blazed the trail before "X-Men," and then pivot to our fresh take on Amazon Prime's Fallout series. Trust us, we're just getting started on unpacking the treasure chest of hidden gems like the remastered "Star Ocean" and anticipating the animated continuation in "X-Men '97."
Change gears with us as we geek out over the binge-worthy nature of the Fallout series, debating the pros and cons of Amazon's full-season drop compared to the weekly episode buzz that keeps us talking.
