Show #61 -DutyTastic!
Hey there! I bet you weren't expecting another episode of A Geek and His Wife this soon, were you? It's funny, when I keep better notes about wtf is going on with us it's easier to release another episode sooner than later. Also, I think Heather's a little excited about the live streaming of our shows so that helps me to get her to record, too ;-). If you were able to join us live, thank you so much for your participation. If you'd like to join us in the future, please follow our Twitter feeds (@Transmatrix & @TheGeeksWife) for information on when our next live recording will be. This show includes topics like jury duty, the newest member of our electronics family, old ass movies, work around the home, and lots of discussion about video games. As always, we had a great time recording the show and hope you have as much fun listening.
If you would like to provide feedback, give us a call at 206-203-5613

Hello everyone and welcome to the latest installment of A Geek and His Wife. While the last show was our first time streaming live audio over UStream, this was our first time streaming live video along with the audio. If you were able to join us live, thank you so much for your participation. If you'd like to join us in the future, please follow our Twitter feeds (@Transmatrix & @TheGeeksWife) for information on when our next live recording will be. For those that are just downloading the show, we still love you ;-). On this show we discuss our latest social forays, sporting events (don't worry we aren't a sports podcast) and continue to argue the finer points of wine pronunciation. We had a great time recording the show and hope you have as much fun listening.
Thank you for listening to the latest episode of A Geek and His Wife. We tried something a little different this time and that was that we broadcast the audio of our show live over ustream.tv. Thank you so much for the few people that followed our invites over Twitter to come and listen to the show I really think it added to the content we were discussing. In particular, thanks to those who decided to participate in the chat room. If you didn't get a chance to listen live, please look for our tweets beforehand next time we record in a few weeks. As far as content of this show goes, we discuss Heather's recent trip to the Tucson Gem show, some upcoming events we are going to, new apps and games we've been playing, shows we've been watching, and much more!
Do you like super duper long episodes of A Geek and His Wife? If so,then you're in luck! This has to be the longest show we've ever recorded, but there's ample reason. We haven't recorded a show for almost a month and boy have we been busy. We have an exciting announcement in the second half of the show, but we also discuss lots of great stuff in the first half as well. Find out what we got for Christmas, what the heck we've been doing for the last month, and once again don't forget to stick around for the big news! As always, if you would like to provide feedback, give us a call at 206-203-5613.
Ho, Ho, Hey! How exciting is this? I bet you didn't expect another episode of A Geek and His Wife before you started opening presents on Christmas day, did you!? Well we're always happy to surprise. I hope we didn't give you a startle... In any event, on this episode we discuss what's been going on since we last talked including a WVFN, some Smunchiness, a little bit of homegrown karaoke, and some Christmas parties. There's also a few money saving deals included in this show (assuming you listen to it right away). If you're looking for a good deal on some video games or some great music, look no further!
HoHoHo, Merry Christmas! Tis the season to be Geeky! And what better way to celebrate than another episode of A Geek and His Wife? On this episode we discuss our goings on since we last talked. This includes a trip out in the cold two evenings in a row, our Thanksgiving celbrations and aftermath, new computer parts, TV Shows, and much more. This show also includes a Transit Tales segment, and a new segment involving our neighbors across the pond.
Not only are you getting a show two weeks after our last one, we've brought a special guest into the studio: the prolific ScottyJ! We discuss
On 11/15/2009 Kevin gave a presentation on the technical side of podcasting. If you were there, thanks for listening. If not, I will be uploading video and audio of the presentation to this post. The battery in the video camera died before the presentation was over, so the video isn't of the whole presentation. However, Dani of the 








I can assure you that despite a proclivity of small zombie children declaring their fondness for shelled amphibians, they would much rather be touting the excellent content in the average episode of A Geek and His Wife. In fact, I put my seal of approval and guarantee on that. You can take that to the bank and smoke it for a small fee. In this week's episode we mainly discuss our trip to Utah and the activities that happened while there. You wouldn't think that we could talk about this crap for an hour, but you'd be wrong. In fact, for some reason we just go on and on with regards to this topic. We hope you find it mildly entertaining.
The doctor prescribes two shots of alcohol and record a podcast. Thank you for downloading the latest episode of A Geek and His Wife. On this show we discuss our recent social excursions including various *fn events. We also discuss the most recent happenings in our lives that we consider interesting: you can decide for yourselves if you agree. As the first line and the show title imply, we be drunk for this show. Let us know if you prefer us sober or intoxicated. We also announce a new way to interact with the show. Just tag any twitter post with #agahw and we'll discuss it on the show. Listen for all the crunchy details.
Welcome back to A Geek and His Wife. We do this all the time, what do you mean it's been over two months since we recorded a show? Are you sure you have the right feed? Well, since everyone says that they haven't been getting our recordings that I keep making and putting in a place where I thought everyone could find them, we decided to record a show going over everything that we've been doing since March 15th. This includes multiple EVFNs, out of town guests, concerts, movies, and all sorts of other crap. Plus, Kevin doesn't know how to work all these knobs anymore so the shows all crazy loopy and shiznit. I hope you missed us.
It has been a while since we recorded a show, so please forgive any rusty-ness on our parts. We get into the reasons for the delay in the show, however one of the reasons is that we are delivering a trivia challenge. Not just any trivia challenge, though, it is a music trivia challenge. Both Kevin and Heather have sampled songs from the other person's iTunes library and have come up with ten songs to stump the other person. Can you fare better than our intrepid couple?
As usual, this week's episode of A Geek and His Wife is all over the place. Of extra-special note: this week we have a guest host: Aaron of the Big Show. Our topics vary from Kevin's extra-lengthy Transit-Tales to Aaron's excitement over President Obama visiting his old High School. This show is chock-full of crap we never meant to talk about, but we deliver it to you regardless of the lack of notes. In the end, we hope you enjoy the show!
I know it is no surprise to all of our listeners that Kevin is a huge geek. However, you may not know that at time Heather can be just as big of a geek herself when put in the right situation. Well, it appears that one of those situations is a convention with actors and actresses from famous sci-fi shows that she happens to like. We recently attended the Phoenix Comicon, a first for both of us. We originally decided to go because we had friends including some from out-of-town attending. However, once we started looking at the guest list our eyes got bigger and bigger as we thought about meeting some of our favorite actors and actresses. In short, we had a great time and the majority of this show is dedicated to discussing our experiences at the Phoenix Comicon. We definitely recommend it if you are in the area. If anything, you should shake Wil Wheaton's hand.
Hello all my Robros and thank you for your interest in this, the latest episode of A Geek and His Wife. Well, ask and you shall receive, right? We asked for voicemails and boy did you guys deliver. I'm not complaining but due to an overzealous Barely along with some new callers we reached a record 12 voicemails for this show. And don't worry, we play them all. However, we first discuss what's been going on with us including some new home improvements, more mass transit stories, and we shed a tear for Circuit City.
Here it is: the first episode of 2009. We discuss what's happened since we last recorded a show including Christmas, New Years, and beyond. Not only that, but we have an exciting challenge for Heather and her crazy candy eating habits.
It's been awhile since a Geek Week episode has gone out, but absence just makes the heart grow fonder, right? On this episode of Geek Week, I am joined by Aaron of 
No, this isn't a trick, we've actually produced two shows of A Geek and His Wife in as many weeks. We have a special guest on this week's show: ScottyJ of other podcast guest appearances fame. We had a blast chatting with Scott and learning a bit more about him before going into our current television lineup and mock review. Since Scott is a fellow gamer, Kevin has to take the opportunity to discuss his favorite pastime. Be sure to listen to the whole show if you want to hear the juicy bit of gossip we got about Scott's behavior in High School.
Hello Kiddies and welcome to the latest episode of A Geek and His Wife. On this week's show we discuss what's been going on since we last talked. Apparently we should discuss alcohol more often, because that sure spurred our audience to call in. We continue to talk about our alcoholism this week, and we support it by being drunk while recording. You will not be disappointed if you enjoy Heather and Kevin play fighting, but if that bothers you: tough cookies. This episode covers the topics of our last physical guest in our house, a friend's daughter's birthday party, fertility, Xbox, Netflix, and cool websites.
This evening was a triumph. I'm making a note here: huge success. America has spoken and it has said it wants change. We couldn't agree more and we decide to make a few changes in our show as well. Topics in this show include the recent election results, Kevin's dad visiting, PodCamp AZ, and a few surprises. Our music this week is Your Town by Paul and Storm, and we also got an interesting voicemail from the intrepid duo.
You were promised a show, and we have delivered! You would think that with us being "gone" for so long that we would have a lot of stuff to talk about, but not really. We do deliver a solid 1hr show, though. We talk about our 10 year reunion for a good chunk of time along with video game discussions, who we've been hanging out with, and more talk about The Guild.
If you don't follow Heather and me on Twitter, you may have thought we'd passed away. However, the reports of our demise have been exaggerated, and I blame the whole thing on Funyuns. Those things are too tasty to not be hiding some deep dark secret. On this show we go deeper into some of the interesting shiznit that went down in Vegas. Once again, we had a blast hanging out with all our fellow podcasters, and I can only hope there is another expo next year. We also talk about what has been going on since we last recorded a show.
While we were at the New Media Expo in Vegas this year I brought a little portable microphone and recorder so that we could get show IDs from attendees. It also came in handy for making short impromptu recordings of ourselves. This show is comprised of those short recordings while we were in Vegas. We had a blast, and hope you enjoy our show. If you would like to give us feedback, give us a call at 206-203-5613.
Doh! I feel like such an idiot... We did have voicemail that I should have played on our last show. I felt so bad that we went ahead and recorded this addendum show to correct the mistake. We love getting voicemail, and I don't want to discourage people from listening to it. So go ahead and listen to our voicemail along with our responses as well as a rundown of what has happened since we last recorded a show. Thanks!
It's the biggest panel ever on an episode of Geek Week! This may also be the longest Geek Week, clocking in at around one hour and forty minutes. However, we had a lot to talk about. This show is dedicated to discussing the recent announcements out of Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony at the E3 press conference along with our commentary towards these announcements and the direction of the industry and these companies in general. I am joined by Aaron of the Big Show, Jason Tucker from the Tucker Tales podcast, and firstcomer Steve from the Wicked Good Podcast. You can find these shows at
Uh oh, Heather's been drinking again... But that makes for a better show, right? ;-) As always, we discuss what we consider interesting things that have been going on since we last recorded a show. This time that includes our recent movie-watching experiences, visiting with Barely of Barely Podcasting, some new, fun music, and much more. This show may be a bit more randy than usual, we apologize for any offense ;-). If you would like to give us feedback, give us a call at 206-203-5613 or send an e-mail.
Oh Boy are you lucky! It is another episode of A Geek and His Wife. Our last show was running long, so we postponed our trivia challenge to show #31 instead of #30. You are going to want to hear this trivia challenge, it has a great twist to it. You can play along at home, too, and then call up to make fun of the questions that Kevin and Heather got wrong. We also talk about our Anniversary celebration and gifts, some free kart racing, and of course your voicemails. If you would like to leave your own message, give us a call at 206-203-5613.
Holy crap, this is hands down the longest episode of A Geek and His Wife ever! We have been gone for a long time and we have a lot to talk about. On this show we cover our entire trip to and through Indiana from our plane taking off from the Valley of the Sun until our flight home. Learn about what goes on in bathrooms at weddings, undersea tours of lake swallowing caves, crazy backwards people, and we even throw some inuendo in for those kinds of people who like it. We recorded this whole show from beginning to end without a break, and we even didn't have time to cover everything. So look for another show soon so that we can do our Trivia Challenge, and also talk about our anniversary celebration.
