Truly, Madly, Geekly: Podcast Episode 24
Truly, Madly, Geekly is a podcast which shows what happens when two people spend years watching Sci-fi TV shows, comic book films and more, arguing about what happens in them, what things you liked, what things you didn’t; and then those two people decide to get married and do exactly that for the rest of their lives.
We take the combined, eclectic knowledge of GodisaGeek.com‘s Deputy Editor Martin Baker, and his wife/companion/better half Laura Baker, put them in a room together after having watched/read a week’s worth of TV, movies, comic books and whatever else they may have experienced, and record the ensuing discussion. As you would expect from a lifelong couple just having a genuine conversation, it never stays on topic for very long, but we try to keep some semblance of normality to the proceedings.
We present: Episode 24 or ‘Ere Be Pirates’. Feel free to download the episode, to listen in any way you want, by right-clicking here and choosing ‘Save Link As’.

Martin Baker
By day I play video games, test video games or just simply write about them. By night I fight crime on the streets of London as a masked vigilante known only to a select few ... damn SECRET identity. Could never get the hang of that.
I've been writing about video games for about 10 years now, and playing them for even longer, starting off with a Spectrum ZX passed down to me in about 1988. Yes, I used to play games that came on cassettes. Yes, they were AWESOME!
I've been writing for God is a Geek since October 2010 and loving every minute of it, aside from that I write for my own website and work as a video game tester for Testology. So, yeah, I'm pretty much living the life of a gamer, and I don't intend stopping anytime soon thank you very much.
Unless I run out of money, then we might have a problem.
