The Lazy Geeks

This week, Steven dips into the concept of the “manosphere”. Except of getting into how it started, which is a decent starting point, he dips in on who needs to be examined. Examining its originals isn’t all we should do. It is getting to the kids or young men that are absorbing this stuff. Is it immaturity? Is it simply guys that can’t get laid? Or is it older men that were never taught how to ha...

The boys are back. Steven and Adam return for the first time since 2022. Steven discusses why he left Plex and is storing his content through Jellyfin, while Adam is playing Steller Blade . They discuss about Microsoft splitting from Xbox and if Wired is truly anti-tecnology. By the way, we started a Patreon. For as little as $5/month you can get early access to our podcast content. Higher tiers w...

The hard reset has arrived. Steven has been teasing an announcement for a bit. Now is time reveal. Also, this is the new-ish format of this particular episode. More will be explained in the episode. Also, we are close to our goal to move/renew the hosting for the site. $90 is what we have left, so if you would like to help us reach that, you can donate to one of the many links below.

We are back with another week of news that didn’t get enough attention. Tweaked the format a bit and included a main topic. This week, we discuss TikTok again, Meta banning users from exposing ICE, Microsoft will sell you out to the feds, and AI will be making government legislation soon. Our main topic this week is some of the weirdest things that I found on social media. A California food shorta...

It’s 2026 and we are back. After a tumultuous 2025, I’m in a better situation that will allow me to come back to the show. I’ll explain more in the episode. In our return episode, we are talking about the finalized deal between the US and TikTok, Microsoft having some issues and Threads is having more users than Twitter. This show will continue to stay weekly, starting this week. All my other show...

We are back with some of the under reported news stories from the past week, August 3 through 8. Hulu is going buh-bye (sort of), parts of the US Constitution disappeared, Digital Foundry goes independent, and more password sharing crackdowns. Not only that some sites are phishing for Facebook likes. Who does that? Wanna Donate: Donations will allow us to remain ad-free and expand our content. Don...

Two things: (one) we are back, and (two) I apologize. The Lazy Geeks are back discussing things that are impacting our lives on a daily basis and I explain more in the episode. The apology is for being a bit long. I decided to go unscripted and this is what I get. I promise, I won’t do that again. But enjoy it, anyway.

Episode 4: The Toxic Fandom. The internet is plagued by fandom toxicity. Where does it come from? Why do older people hate new content? It isn’t as hard to believe as you may think. Also, we discuss Xbox price hikes for Christmas, Polygon sold, GTA VI pushed back, and Spotify cashes in on judgment against Apple.

This week, we have some breaking news just prior to recording of the show. Coyote vs. Acme gets a distributor, DOGE to rewrite Social Security, TikTok gets a reprieve, and other stuff.

The time has come, people. If you read my blog post last week, you know this is our final episode of The Lazy Geeks podcast. We are moving on from it, and have launched our replacement show, The Truly Pointless Podcast . If it sounds familiar it’s because we did it before. All 28 episodes of that previous series are available. We will drop new episodes in January. As for this show, it was fun. Hop...
