If you've ever found yourself hoping that GeekDad HipTrax would somehow become a lot more… danceable, then this episode is for you. Listen in wonder as we crank out some amazing electronica in the geekiest of veins. Marvel as we effortlessly transition from chiptunes to nerdcore to Wizard Rock without so much as batting an eyelash. Suppress a chuckle as Ken and I attempt to shake our groove things without spilling our drinks.

Here at HipTrax, it is our mission to provide geeky music that's still suitable for the sensitive ears of our brood, but we seldom devolve into what one would call a kid's music podcast.

Listen as we wax poetic about Transformers, long lost action figures and the tech that is creating the dorks of tomorrow.

John Rogers Interview

In conjunction with the upcoming premiere of his TV show Leverage's second season premiere, I got the chance to talk to John about the cool things he's done (Warren Ellis' Global Frequency pilot, Jackie Chan Adventures), the things that humble him (he is credited as one of the writers of the Catwoman movie), and how he's trying to drag the television industry into the internet age one show at a time.
