Gobbledygeek 181, "Knights' Tales"

Gobbledygeek - A podcast by Paul Smith and Arlo J. Wiley

Categories:

Paul and AJ are, you know, they're...I think the word is "geeks"? Geeks. Yes. And sometimes, they challenge each other. Lord knows they challenge each other. And sometimes such a challenge between geeks is bestowed the the rank of Geek Challenge. For the first time in far too long, such a plague has befallen the podcast: AJ challenges Paul to watch the 1957 Ingmar Bergman classic The Seventh Seal; in return, Paul challenges AJ to John Boorman's 1981 Arthurian epic Excalibur. There is much sadness and mythmaking and fast-and-loose historical accuracies as our knights ride off a journey of the soul. Plus, Fargo makes for a pretty great TV show and The Superior Spider-Man has reached its blessed end. Next week: the second installment of this year's Four-Color Flashback, as the boys discuss the second volume of Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, The Doll's House.
