Episode 108: And Then, There Was KEYTAR!!!!

Ah, the music of 1985....where everything sounded like the interim music of a high=end porno!  And now, the team at Geek Salad will review the number one hits, the cheesy classics, as well as some of their favorite albums of the mid-point of the 80's in a super-sized installment!  Who scored more number one hits that year, Madonna or Phil Collins?  And did they all sound like they were in the mood to make love?

Episode 107: The Internet! It's Not Just for Porn Anymore!

The Internet! The amazing, mystical energy field that holds the universe together... or is that the Force? In any case, without the Internet, we wouldn't have all the wonderful forms of entertainment we do today. In fact, without the Internet, we wouldn't even have Geek Salad episode 107: The Internet! It's Not Just for Porn Anymore!

Join Andy, Mike G, Joe, Katherine, and special guest Joe (Katherine's boyfriend) as they go over some of their favorite Internet personalities, shows, podcasts, and general forms of entertainment (porn not included). Making this episode especially ironic is that they recorded it over the Internet thanks to Google Hangouts. So no, for once, the audio quality is not their fault.

Episode 102: Infinite Crisis in the Age of Ultron

The battle lines are drawn! The normal unity of the Geek Salad crew is shattered! What could possibly cause such a rift? Why Marvel vs DC, of course.

It's Andy, Mike G, and special guest Katherine for Marvel, Joe and Mike C for DC, and Jim being the great and powerful Oz... or maybe just the moderator. Will Marvel come out on top? Will DC triumph? Who cares as long as it's entertaining!
