The Point Radio: ‘Big Bang’ gang on being Chic Geek, and who was that caped guy on ‘Smallville’?

The Point Radio: ‘Big Bang’ gang on being Chic Geek, and who was that caped guy on ‘Smallville’?

How can we not love a show where the characters wear Flash t-shirts and love comics as much as we do. For the cast of THE BIG BANG THEORY, being a true geek is hard work and we talk to them about how they prepare for the parts, plus TWILIGHT breaks the BO and is that really a Green Lantern in SMALLVILLE?

Crazy Sexy Geeks: A New Weekly Web-Series

So your parents loved Robert Downey, Jr. in Iron Man but don’t think comics themselves have anything to offer? Your friends loved V for Vendetta and The Dark Knight and are curious to read comics now but aren’t sure where to start? This is the show to help them all out.

Starring yours truly and New York actor Jose Ramos, “Crazy Sexy Geeks: The Series” is meant to help new people get into comics and other geeky entertainment while also being fun for those already initiated. Each week we will discuss topics such as openly gay super-heroes, why there don’t seem to be many women super-heroes outside of comics, whether remakes are better than sequels, the challenges of film adaptations, and other fun topics that anyone with a smidgeon of pop culture knowledge can enjoy.

This is not your typical comic book video blog where two or three guys sit in a basement or at a friend’s house and just review what came out this week. This is a show where we go out on the street, asking mainstream America what they think about super-heroes, sci-fi films, etc. Likewise, there are professional interviews with folks such as Rob Zombie, Edward James Olmos, novelist David Mack (Star Trek: Destiny, The Calling), and others still to come.

For our first episode, watch us chat with Amber Benson (Tara from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”) about female super-heroes, her new novel Death’s Daughter, and what she thinks about the Twilight series.

Ready? Great! WATCH OUR FIRST EPISODE!
