This week on Geekspeak, Brad and Bryan welcome Matt Wilson to the brutal confines of the Geekspeak Network Paindrome to interrogate him about his new book The Supervillain Handbook: The Ultimate How-To Guide to Destruction and Mayhem. It's another fun entry into the Geekspeak Network Book Club as the boys talk about the scientific process of making memorable movie quotes, recap all the latest superhero news, and define exactly what makes a supervillain so super. All this and more can be yours, if you'll but download the show.

Geekspeak Season 14, Episode 11: #3DBillyZane and Dinosaur Combat

This week, we welcome Phil Hornshaw and Nick Hurwitch, the authors of the new book So You Created a Wormhole: The Time Traveler's Guide to Time Travel to the unnecessarily tense, discomforting shores of Geekspeak country. Ostensibly they were there to talk about their book, but things take a turn. Like, several turns. We also talk about MIT's printable robots project and Ashton Kutcher playing Steve Jobs, dancing Star Wars kitsch, the challenge of making Twitter accounts, and even manage to squeeze in some Lindsey fan service. Go ahead and download the new episode, and while you are doing that go buy a copy of Nick and Phil's pretty awesome and hilarious book.
