The 87th episode of Geek Brunch has somehow morphed into Family Brunch as Mike and Heath talk about how cool kids are and how much work jumping in those inflatable tents really is. Also discussed: Empanadas, cake, mixed ethnic foods, Star Trek, Up, and TV’s Erik Estrada. Okay, everything but Erik Estrada. He’s next time.

With Mike away on a GI Joe European Mission, Heath invites Eric Martin and Mike Manning to stop by for a discussion about life, love, and the pursuit of geekery. Among the topics discussed: Star Trek, Buffy and Angel, more anal beads, lisps, Paul Stanley, and Blu Ray bliss.

For episode 85, we’re joined by Ryan King, aka Hulk Smash for a journey that includes tornadoes, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Free Comic Book Day, and Yum Yum Sauce. PS: When Heath tells Ryan that the GI Joe comic book predates the action figures, he was wrong. Ryan was right. They both came out at the same time, in 1982. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle!

This week, we are joined by Carlos from his secret underwater lair as we discuss the usual batch of geekery, plus chop shops and Adventures in Babysitting. Be warned, this episode suffers from some audio problems.
