Geeks From The Multiverse

From Hulk Hogan flexing in the 80s, to Stone Cold chugging beers in the 90s, to John Cena screaming “You can’t see me!” in the 2000s — wrestling has been a cultural circus. This episode of Geeks From The Multiverse suplexes you through the Hulkamania craze, the chaotic Attitude Era, and the Ruthless Aggression takeover. Expect nostalgia, absurd storylines, and more spandex than an ’80s aerobics cl...

Every fandom has its boogeymen: haunted video games, cursed movie sets, creepy internet lore. From the Ben Drowned creepypasta to the “Poltergeist skeletons were real” rumor, geek culture is full of urban legends that refuse to die. This Halloween, we dig through the archives of the weird, the cursed, and the totally ridiculous. Are these tales chilling truths, or just fanfiction gone feral? Grab...

Fear isn’t just jump scares or shadows — it’s the silence that keeps us from saying what needs to be said. In this Evolve episode, we tackle the fears society avoids: suicide, racism, grief, addiction, and the hard conversations most people run from. Fear thrives in silence, but growth only comes when we confront it. This isn’t a comfortable episode, but it’s a necessary one. Find Geeks From The M...

In Part 2, we go deeper into the world-building of Earthworm Jim , exploring the over-the-top characters and bizarre planets that make this parody movie idea come alive. From Princess Oh Ma Gawd and her Bugball boyfriend Chad, to the slime-dripping Queen, Fly-Byzz and his endlessly dying Fly-Boiz, and Chewbert the junk-eating two-headed dog, we break down every character’s comedic edge. We also di...

In this episode, we take the squirmy chaos of Earthworm Jim and reimagine it as a full-blown parody blockbuster, blending the absurdity of Spaceballs and The Naked Gun with Jim’s ridiculous video-game origins. We walk through the movie treatment from his supersuit crash-landing on Earth, to GlobZilla smashing him into space, to the junkyard madness of Trashopolis Prime, and finally to his slime-so...

Grab your Surge, dust off the N64, and get ready to blow on some cartridges. This week we’re diving deep into 90s video games — the consoles that defined us, the games that blew our minds (and our friendships), and the forgotten trends that make us wonder how the hell we survived. From GoldenEye sleepovers to Mortal Kombat fatalities, from arcade pizza grease to the rise of PlayStation, it’s all h...

Once upon a time, being a geek could get you shoved into a locker. Today, it can get you a career, a community, even the biggest movies on the planet. That’s evolution. In this serious PSA-style episode of Geeks From The Multiverse , Matt and John trace geek culture’s journey from taboo in the 80s and 90s, to mainstream in the 2000s, and challenge you to do the same. Stop hiding. Stop shrinking. J...

Lock and load, geeks — this week we’re diving headfirst into the golden age of over-the-top explosions, muscle-bound heroes, and one-liners sharp enough to cut steel: the 1980s action movie era. From Arnold mowing down armies in Commando to Bruce Willis crawling through air vents in Die Hard , we’re talking the stars, the tropes, and the films that turned action into pure spectacle. Who was the tr...

Before TikTok trends and Instagram reels, the internet gave us its first chaotic children: memes. From the dancing baby and Hamster Dance to Leeroy Jenkins. These icons of the ‘80s, ‘90s, and 2000s shaped internet humor long before social media took over. In this episode, we dust off the archives to ask: where are these meme legends now? Some cashed in. Some disappeared. Some still haunt your GIF...

We kick things off with our new segment, What If… but Stoopid — this time asking the hard-hitting question: What if Hulk lost his pants everytime he changed?

From multiverse fatigue to Superman’s high-stakes return, we’re...

We’re summoning the full story of Hellboy — from Mike Mignola’s shadow-soaked comics to Guillermo del Toro’s gothic cult classics, the 2019 reboot misfire, and the folk-horror attempt of The Crooked Man . Plus, in our new segment AI Fixed It , we tear into The Flash (2023) and rebuild it the way it should’ve been. Join us for monsters, mythology, movie mayhem, and a healthy dose of weird. Find Gee...

Life will break you, burn you, and force you to change — but how you change is up to you. Heroes turn pain into purpose. Villains let it twist them into something unrecognizable. This episode dives into the raw truth about trauma, bitterness, and choosing to evolve without losing yourself.

Superhero burnout isn’t about “too many capes” — it’s about bad storytelling, box-checking, and studios forgetting what made these heroes great in the first place. This week we’re tearing into Marvel’s fatigue problem, the rise of R-rated antiheroes, and why Kevin Feige blaming Captain America: Brave New World ’s failure on “no Chris Evans” proves how far Marvel’s lost the plot. From forced DEI tu...

Marvel’s First Family deserves better. We dive into the comic origins of the Fantastic Four, their groundbreaking impact on Marvel history, and why Hollywood keeps getting them wrong.

Suit up and charge your controller—this week, we’re diving into the wild world of superhero video games. From the highs of the Batman Arkham series and Spider-Man 2 to the glitchy lows of Marvel’s Avengers and Suicide Squad, we’re ranking the best, roasting the worst, and asking the real questions—like why King Shark has a gun and why Iron Man flies like a confused lawnmower. It’s capes, chaos, an...

Sure, we’re not flying, teleporting, or shooting lasers out of our eyeballs (yet)... but maybe your real superpower is surviving that toxic job, dodging family drama like Neo in The Matrix , or holding it together with duct tape and caffeine. This week, we dig deep (but also keep it delightfully inappropriate) as we redefine what a superpower really is—spoiler alert: it’s not just what Marvel or D...

Brace yourselves, ya filthy animals — we’re diving headfirst into the blood-splattered dumpster fire of capitalism, laser-eyed babies, and unhinged superhero narcissism known as The Boys .

In this episode, we dive into the MCU’s most recent questionable choices as well as the current status of their “creative coma”. The same formula, same vibes, slightly different flavor of CGI explosion. Why do they keep hiring visionary directors only to hand them a beige-colored playbook titled “Don’t Be Weird”? We’re talking multiverse madness, fan fatigue, why Phase 4 felt like Phase Meh, and h...

This week, Geeks From The Multiverse rips into the savage world of Invincible —  the show that proves capes don’t mean compassion (and throws it into a train full of civilians). We’re talking shattered spines, exploding heads, and one dad who punches through planets and parenting. From the Viltrumite threat to that brutal “Think, Mark!” moment, we’re dissecting every gory detail and asking: who, i...

Whether you’re Team Gandalf, Team Geralt, or just here for the dragons, this one’s for you. ✨ L...

You’ve done the work, earned the title, and hit the milestones—but deep down, you still feel like a fraud.
