We're here to talk to you about the Avengers Initiative....
...and with those words, the Marvel Cinematic Universe kicked into high gear! From the 2008 release of Iron Man, to last year's surprise hit Guardians of the Galaxy, the MCU has been kicking butt throughout the movie industry.
...and now Geek Salad is here to rank them...
Thanks to our friends on Facebook, the team of Andy, Mike G., Joe, and Katherine count down from 10 to 1 the favorite films in both Phase 1 and Phase 2, leading up to the May 1st release of Avengers: Age of Ultron. Which movies will end up lower than expected? Which movies got more love than usual? And who will rank supreme?
Then, stay tuned for a trio of Trailer Parks, where the team discuss the latest trailers from Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Ant-Man.

Dearly Beloved! We are gathered here to give to this thing called "The Top Songs of 1984!" Join Andy, Mike G, Jim, Mike C, Joe, and Jim's wife Rebecca, as they tear apart the Billboard Hot 100 for the year of 1984. Many a heartfelt argument will be had about the merits of Phil Collins' "Against All Odds," and Lionel Ritchie's "Hello," as well as which song is worse: "I Just Called To Say I Love You," or "Caribbean Queen (No More Love on the Run)." There will also be a spirited discussion about the live performance acumen of John Waite and, of course, a whole dissertation on the musical history of WHAM!
Then stick around for the gang's first impressions about the first season of "Gotham" and the second season of "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

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 Geek Salad episode 102: Infinite Crisis in the Age of Ultron. 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!

After a bit of a break, the Geek Salad crew are back to resume their discussion of the X-Men movies with episode 98, part 2: Days of Dinklage Past. Andy, Mike G, Jim, and Joe have returned to chat about the mixed bag of Wolverine movies, and the wonder of X-Men: First Class. They then go into a (WARNING!) spoiler-laden conversation about the sheer brilliance that is X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Stick around after that for some Stupid Stupid conversations about how David S. Goyer needs to shut up among other things. Lego Batman graces us with his awesome new space-suit in Trailer Park, and the Salad Shills range from YouTube channels and Boston radio to Guardians of the Galaxy and South Park. Fun times to be had by all!

In 1963, Stan Lee decided to create a new team of superheroes. Unable to come up with a unique way that they all got their powers, though, he just decided that they were just born with their abilities. He grabbed Jack Kirby for the artwork, and behold, the X-Men were born!
Now, 51 years later, they have gained the ultimate honor! They are the subject of not just a Geek Salad episode, but a two-parter! So come join Andy, both Mikes, Jim, and Joe, as they discuss and debate their favorite X-Men comic stories, the pros and cons of the first three X-Men movies, and also have some giggles coming up with the most useless mutant abilities. Then come back in a couple of weeks for Part 2.

30 years ago, a series of movies that were released that still resonate with the Geek public today. 30 years ago, we introduced the world to bananas in tailpipes, ritual heart removal, unlicensed/untested nuclear accelerators, and the PG-13 rating. Now, the team of Andy and Mike G (along with special guests Joe and Autumn) parse the spectrum of the best movie year of the 80's. Join in as they discuss (again) Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Dune, and Star Trek III, as well as new (old) favorites like Amadeus, Beverly Hills Cop, and, of course, Ghostbusters.
Then stick around for the Geek Salad review of The Guardians of the Galaxy trailer, and some shills involving books, video games, the WWE Network, and a new musical about the EnglishShipBuilding industry in the 1960's!

Laugh tracks! Predictable plot lines! We must be talking about sitcoms. In fact, we're talking about the top 25 sitcom characters from the past 30 years in Geek Salad episode 91: Tricks Are What Whores Do for Money. Join Andy, Jim, and both Mikes as they go over a list of some of the top characters who made us laugh as chosen by you, the Geek Salad fans. They cover all the greats, from Gob Bluth to Norm Peterson. Oh, and somehow Urkel made it on there, too. The guys are still investigating that one.
After that, stick around for a double-wide Trailer Park. The topic is upcoming superhero movies and both Captain America: The Winter Soldier and X-Men: Days of Future Past inspire much awesomeness. 2014 is looking very promising!

First there was Iron Man which kicked off the Marvel movie universe. Now Marvel and Disney have aired the new TV series to continue events started in The Avengers, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Now, if we, the fans, were writing the episodes, what kinds of wacky adventures might Agent Coulson and his band of intrepid adventurers get into? That is the question that Andy, Mike G, and Jim attempt to answer in Geek Salad episode 88: Don't Touch Lola.
The crew take on this task with their usual poise, thoughtfulness, and deep insight. Will Andy bring up the most inadvertently hilarious Marvel superhero, the Whizzer? Will Jim make a DC Cab reference? Will Mike mention the TARDIS? Listen in and see!
(BTW, as regular listeners to the show will know, the answer to all three of those questions is 'Absolutely!')
