This week we start a brand new GeekRex tradition! Like our Comic Club (which will make a return soon!), each month one of us will choose a movie, and we will watch and discuss. We'll let you know ahead of time so you can watch and follow along! For our first Movie Club, Cal picks The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, the classic French musical that never fails to surprise!
With so much stuff going on in terms of film, television, comics and the like, there's been a bit of a backlog of things we've wanted to talk about. So this time around, Cal, Harper and Kyle chat about what they're currently enjoying most in pop culture. We cover the indie comics anthology Frontier, Fallout 4, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Spotlight, and more!
We're joined by our good friend from over in the UK, Andrew Jamieson and we chat about the latest entry in the Bond canon, Spectre. How did it fare? To say we were split on the final verdict is an understatement. Listen below to hear the results!

Party time! We made it to 100 episodes, and with that we decided to do something special. We each decided to pick a different segment, and pose a question to our fellow teammates.
