That Darn Internet!

That Darn Internet!

Author: GGR: The Great Geek Refuge March 4, 2018 Duration: 43:00
Mike and Steve discuss the positive and negatives of our constantly connected world when it comes to video games, social media and our health as humans.

Tune into GGR Pirate Radio for a genuinely eclectic mix where conversations about the latest blockbuster film might crash into a deep dive on last night's big game, all filtered through a reliably comedic lens. This isn't a neatly scheduled program but more of a communal audio space from the crew at GGR: The Great Geek Refuge, where the vibe is always loose and the topics are passionately nerdy. Think of it as the central hub for their audio antics; here you'll find those one-off special episodes, curated highlights from their other shows, and the entire back catalog of the original flagship run. The result is a wonderfully unpredictable listen that mirrors the joy of digging through a friend's collection of favorite movies, TV series, and sports memorabilia all at once. Each episode in this podcast feels like hanging out in the best kind of rec room, where inside jokes are welcome and the analysis is as heartfelt as it is hilarious. So, whether you're here for the nostalgia of the old episodes or the spontaneity of the new compilations, there's always something in the grab bag. Just remember the house rule passed down from the pirates themselves: don't be a juicebag.
