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.

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. This episode is no exception, but it did prove an ample opportunity for Ken and me to channel our own inner rugrats. Listen as we wax poetic about Transformers, long lost action figures and the tech that is creating the dorks of tomorrow.
The GeekDads talk about the new Harry Potter Movie, casting for The Hobbit Movies, and more! Enjoy!
