Ramble 465: Mean Gene Should Have Been Hannibal Lecter

Hosted by comedian Jerry Rocha, The Ramble: A Geeks Guide to Pop Culture feels like hanging out with your funniest, most opinionated friends. Alongside fellow comedian Eddie Pence and occasional guest film critic Cody Villafana, Jerry dives deep into the stuff they adore and the things that drive them crazy across movies, video games, and all corners of geek culture. This isn't a formal review show; it's a lively, three-times-a-week conversation where passionate debates about fictional worlds feel as urgent as any headline. The vibe is one of playful camaraderie, where longtime rivalries like Sith and Jedi are settled with a laugh rather than a lightsaber. While the core of the podcast lives in the realms of fantasy and sci-fi, the crew isn't afraid to venture into sports or politics, always filtering those topics through their distinctly nerdy perspectives. You'll hear genuine enthusiasm, well-argued pet peeves, and the kind of tangents that only happen when people truly love this stuff. If you've ever wanted to dissect a game's lore or argue about a film's sequel, but wished it was funnier and came with a side of inside jokes, this is your listen.
