Geek Love Radio Ep. 91: A Timey Wimey Change in Timey
May 08, 2012 08:47 PM PDT
Fixing out schedule a bit here, and I don't know why. But check out a brand new GLR so soon after the last one. How awesome is that? Pretty awesome. Dani the Universe, and myself Francis Fernandez take on the world of love, sex, and relationships from a geek's perspective. What does that entail this week on this off scheduled GLR? We talk a little Avengers in the beginning, how can you not, but then...we want to know...How to flirt with someone when you don't know if they're taken? Leading men on, the female dilemma on taking men's gifts. Noticeable differences after post coital interactions. "Women who worship the cock worship the body." Women like men who look the same. Men like women of all shapes and sizes. Email: theglshow@gmail.com
April 30, 2012 09:27 PM PDT
Dean the Movie Cynic is recording with me, Francis on this weeks episode of GLR. You'l find this episode has a bit more movie talk than normal, with scenes from romantic films as well as what can be considered good love stories on film. We also touch on how the hair can make the man, obsessive men and their need to be loved. Or maybe the man who will love a girl no matter what kind of hell she puts him through. And we also get on about some awesome, new, and specific dating websites. All that and more on this week's Geek Love Radio. http://www.cnn.com/2012/04/25/tech/web/niche-dating-sites-netiquette/index.html And if you want to see what Dean the Movie Cynic is up to, check out his youtube channel here and subscribe today: http://www.youtube.com/user/TheMovieCynic87 You can also check out his blog at: http://justdean.tumblr.com/ And follow him on Twitter @: https://twitter.com/#!/djhanson87 Email: theglshow@gmail.com

Dani the Universe joins Dave and I on an episode that sends us back into the past to give us an idea of our future. But first, we give homage to Andy Garcia, our favorite impression, as it was his birthday last week, but that's beside the point. From young love to first loves, we talk about what was, and what was funny about it. Then it's onto love for live versus love at the moment, to parents trying to help us look for love. An incredibly fun episode with our resident Batman and Robin and yes, some singing from myself and Dave. It's not pretty, but it's great fun on this week's Geek Love Radio. Email: theglshow@gmail.com
April 02, 2012 11:07 PM PDT
We have Lei in the house this week as Dave's internet gives him a hard time. First we talk listener e-mails and comments with Tommy and Slacker giving us some questions, some advice, and hopefully we can give some answers. We also touch on National Cleavage day, and a service that shows that, maybe we do have all our bases covered. You can check this out and so much more, this week on Geek Love Radio.

This week we talk about Dave's night out and how he faired with the ladies. We also discuss hooking up with friends, when you haven't had sex for awhile. Stories are shared, the drink is being poured as we record over St. Patrick's Day. We touch on St. Patrick's Day and the bar scene. http://blogs.laweekly.com/arts/2012/02/bars_get_laid_sex_slutty.php Male birth control pill and fat keeps you from having babies? http://www.chicagotribune.com/health/sc-health-0307-male-pill-20120307,0,6561520.story http://www.chicagotribune.com/health/sns-rt-us-weightbre82e148-20120315,0,2359210.story Don't do this on online dating sites http://www.cnn.com/2012/02/15/tech/web/bad-online-dating-netiquette/index.html Email: theglshow@gmail.com

This week it's Dave the Drummer and our old friend Dani the Universe, here to dispense some tough love and another look from the female geek perspective. This week we discuss all manner of relationship topics from pets as a pick up tool, men and women as friends, the double standard, and so much more. Take part in our discussion with an e-mail, or a message on Twitter or our Facebook page. You can also leave us a voicemail if you want your opinion to be heard. And as always, fun times here at GLR as we keep mixing it up every week with something a little different. Hope you all are liking it. Email: theglshow@gmail.com
February 19, 2012 12:12 PM PST
This week's GLR is jam packed full of fun stuff. First off we have Dean back on the show guest hosting with us. We also have a ton to discuss, from Dave's continued pursuits in making new friends, to people who come on too strong to how sometimes we meet a person and we make that eye contact and...it's all over. If you want to follow dean on Twitter it's: https://twitter.com/#!/djhanson87
Articles: Apparently gaming or spending time away from your significant other is a bad idea. Unless you share the same hobbies.
We like to mix things up in marriage here in the US, and this statistic shows it.
Sometimes we as a people go to far in our fantasies, and this couple gets arrested for it.
It's not always easy joining the mile high club, but this airline helps you out.
Life is full of regrets sometimes, and we can either pretend they don't exist, or learn from them. This one though, is apparently the biggest regret of all.

February 05, 2012 11:24 AM PST
This week we introduce a new guest host, Lei, who will be giving us the female perspective on the show for the week. She'll be back for more in later installments and we look forward to having her. We also continue to discuss Dave's experiences in being going out and being social. His attempt to make a new female friend didn't quite work out as planned, but there's Lei's new challenge for him. To make two female friends, which is just cruel, but fun. We also discuss tips for Valentine's, where we reiterate what one should do during this moment of love. Alas, we here at GLR are a little more cynical, but we do our best to give something for you all to work with. For more gift ideas, please visit SincereSarcasm.net as we kind of move on to all sorts of different articles this week. Valentine's Day is just around the corner. You can dip yourself in Chocolate in Japan.
Husband hires neighbor to have sex with wife, failed after 72 attempts. He finds out he's sterile and that the kids he had with his wife are not his.
Japan wins another wiener related competition.

This week we talk about Dave's experience of meeting new friends and acquaintances. Our Geek Love Tip of the Week, how to make friends and get rid of annoying people. It's not easy, but we all have to build up to it sometime. We also have a listener voicemail in response to last episode's listener e-mail. It's like this weird conversation we're all having, but no one know's who's who. Then we wrap up our show with a few articles from the internet, the first one is about a woman who sues a cop over asking her out on a date after giving her a ticket. Creepy or romantic? http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/45860217/ns/today-today_people/#.TxpDuyMVzL8 Is it better to be right or just have a relationship? http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/stronger-the-broken-places/201201/when-being-wrong-is-right-0 Finally, there is power of good intentions. Yes, good triumphs over uhh, things. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/01/120118165137.htm There is of course all that and much more on this week's episode of Geek Love Radio.

Happy New Year everyone! We start off a brand new Geek Love Radio with listener e-mail and a shout out to the All Games Considered podcast, the place to go for all things Table Top RPGs and more, "Because There's More Than One True Way To Play". Check it out here: http://www.agcpodcast.info/ This week we also have a guest amongst us. Dean Hanson, a friend of mine from the old Scott Pilgrim days. Which was really, just last year. He's a writer, a movie buff, and he gives some good insight on geek love. You can find him on Twitter @djhanson87 and you can check out his blog http://justdean.tumblr.com/ Discussion and Geek Love Tip of the Week deals with Dave the Drummer and his new project. He's going to try to get out more, and possibly make new friends. With a bit of a push from me, I give him his first task. Article 1: For our first article of the new year we cover what men love about women:
Then we go the opposite way and well, apparently, a marriage isn't all that great after all and can be damaging to your mental health:
Finally, we don't really get to this, but go ahead and check it out on your own. Scammers take advantage of those looking for romance. Horrible, but happens all the time:

Happy Holidays everyone, it's that time of year again and we start it off by celebrating girl gamers, and a new study on how happy girl gamers are over other ladies. As you know we love those studies, and it comes with an infographic you can find here: www.gamehouse.com/blog/women-who-game/ And with the holiday of gift giving just around the corner, we give our two favorite sites for all things geek gifts. My go to site is ThinkGeek.com, and now, I have a new suggestion, thanks to a listener who suggests ShanaLogic.com. Both great places to find your guy or lady, that special gift. We wrap up the show with the Geek Love Tip of the week with places you can take your special date to for the holidays. Of course, we can't all be couples during the holidays, so on the next episode, expect some advice and suggestions for the single people out there. Thanks again, everyone for listening.

Discussion: Dave is interested in a MILF and talk about cougars. Also how gender roles seem to be reversing as it seems more okay for the guy to have a more submissive role while the women are more dominant. We then talk about how to try to survive the holidays being single and suggestions on what to do if you're a single nerd. LAN parties anybody? Sometimes just doing something fun or getting together with friends isn't a bad way to spend the holidays. Articles: This week's Article happens to be the Geek Love tip of the week. Geek Love Tip of the Week: Being generous in life and love can lead to a long and fulfilling relationship.

Discussion: The bar scene and how people deal with being lonely...with drinking. Dave the Drummer and I go on tangents, never really getting to any studies or news in the world of relationships. Still, a grab bag of good topics, discussion and experience my exhaustion. I'm tired in this episode, and that can only mean trouble. Article 1: Why do people fall in and out of love. http://abcnews.go.com/Health/WellnessResource/story?id=7183007 Geek Love Tip of the Week: How we act like our mate, and the big question…how do I get my significant other to think like me.

Discussion: Listener E-mail: Dear Flancis, Dani & Dave What's up? Love the show, you guys keep me laughing every week. Now that I've buttered you up, I hope you can help me out. See, I've been dating my girlfriend for over 10 years now and things are going pretty good, except for the fact that it's getting a little boring. We live together, we have a kid together and we spend a lot of time together. I've tried spending time apart from her, which I thought would be the obvious way to change things up a little, but I start to miss her, and she'll start to miss me, and we'll call each other, and let's just say that we don't end up being apart for a long while. So, I think it's pretty clear we love each other and our company, but it's just a lot of the same. I feel like a jerk saying it's "boring", but it's not like it used to be. Love to hear some advice from the GLRers. BTW, we're in our 30s, we live in the suburbs, and we both work (alot). Thanks for your help, and keep up the good work. Scott In an attempt to help answer this question, I use this post from Ask Men to give some ideas. And thankfully we have Dani the Universe and Dave the Drummer to help give their input on these ideas. http://www.askmen.com/top_10/dating/top-10-ways-to-keep-a-long-term-relationship-interesting_10.html Article 1: Sex may provide a better quality of life for those octogenarian females out there. Article 2: Can this really be the reason why women have sex? That doesn't make any sense. http://lifestyle.aol.co.uk/2011/07/27/women-admit-they-have-sex-to-burn-calories/ Article 3: Do you know who are considered the ugliest nationality in the world according to the most superficial dating site out there? Well, the answer may surprise you. Geek Love Tip of the Week: We dissect the idea that people are just naturally jerks, and our advice is to not like people off the bat but to be wary. Of course, we could be wrong, and maybe we should trust until they don't deserve it anymore? What is your take? Wrapup:
August 30, 2011 07:39 PM PDT
Discussion: The hopeless romantic. Do you consider yourself one? Is it so bad to be one? Article 1: On-line dating isn't just about dating anymore, it's about selling yourself. You're the product and the people out there, they're the buyer? http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2011/jul/25/online-dating-love-product Article 2: Maybe being in love isn't such a great thing after all. I mean you do get sick as a result. Lovesick...can't be good for you. http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/44010532/ns/today-today_health/#.TlhgUqjI0Qo Geek Love Tip of the Week: Less a tip and more a discussion on hate, and I guess it's good for some and not for others. Where do you stand? Wrapup:
August 21, 2011 11:23 PM PDT
Discussion: Prostitution, is that a good alternative to a lacking sex life? Are brothel's a good place to go for some sexual attention? Article 1: Being single means you'll live a shorter life? http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/44122528/ns/health-behavior/#.TlCzwajI_9p Article 2: Being in a relationship means you'll live a shorter life? http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/08/110818190609.htm Geek Love Tip of the Week: We've always touted compromise, but this man brings up the point of the cooperation...station...what's your nation? No, that doesn't quite work as well. Wrapup:
August 15, 2011 10:17 PM PDT
This week it's Dave the Drummer and I discussing who's better: the Butter Face vs Butter Body. We discuss about how human touch may be what makes a relationship last, and that men may actually like the cuddling more than the women. Then apparently, there's this hot ex-lawyer who talks about this: The 5 Truths About Relationships (That No One Ever Tells You) and we ugly blokes talk about it too. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/melissa-lafsky/relationship-advice_b_916570.html Then we bring back the Geek Love Tip of the Week Wrapup:
August 08, 2011 11:18 PM PDT
The whole gang is back this week. Dani & Dave talk with me about being single versus being in a relationship. Maybe not everyone needs to be a couple. Then we discuss the relationship where two people just stay over but live in two separate homes. http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/43935635/ns/today-today_health/ A study where weight is an issue, or is it? You be the judge. http://gawker.com/5824851/half-of-men-would-dump-girlfriend-for-getting-fat For some reason, food is the way to go for love advice. And now a UK spread shares with us a study on how people could use sex and TV as a way to make Monday's better. http://gawker.com/5824345/sex-and-tv-make-mondays-less-depressing Then there's a man who wanted to get married by own his computer program. Now that's a true nerd. http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/07/29/couple-to-be-married-by-computer/ Wrapup:
August 02, 2011 10:21 PM PDT
This week it's just me talking about being single, and why everyone seems to hint at me needing to date or getting a girlfriend. I then talk about relationships, couples, and the way romance is perpetuated by night. Finally we hear from Vimes in a comment about GLR Ep. 62, and Girl Gamers. Don't forget to share the word and share Geek Love Radio with everyone. Talk to your friends, your family, your colleges, your dorms, your apartment complexes and just random people and spread the love of GLR in your community. Bring it up on Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, and share the links. We love you for it, it's greatly appreciated, and it's the best way to show us your appreciation for what we do. Thank you. Wrapup:
July 24, 2011 09:24 PM PDT
This week's episode is riddled with articles from around the web, both good, bad, and ugly. To start off, we talk about a ridiculous, but fun study on gamer girls and how they prefer gaming over sex. This scientific study brought to you by none other than a snack company. Next we discuss the woman who was paralyzed and about to get married and how much our love would go for our significant other. http://abcnews.go.com/US/paralyzed-bride-rachelle-friedman-wed-weekend/story?id=14099261 We then move on to websites that promote finding a gamer girl or even cheating on your significant other. http://www.gamecrush.com/
Then we follow that up with talk about cheating in a foreign country. This topic inspired by a local radio show and their discussion on this topic. Then Dave the Drummer's Skype drops out, leaving Dani and I to talk about dirty talk and how it applies to the relationship. Finally, thank you to Sandra for writing in as we try to answer her question about long distant relationships. All that and more on this week's Geek Love Radio. Wrapup:
July 20, 2011 10:27 PM PDT
Due to some technical difficulties, Dani was unable to join us for the whole show, but she did do some awesome rapping before the official show, so enjoy the future of hip hop Dani the Universe! Dave and I continue on talking about a woman with a strange something on her foot that could be kind of hot? If you're into that thing. http://gizmodo.com/5822239/woman-grows-full-size-nipple-on-foot Then we tackle a rather...interesting subject. A friend of mine kind of implied and asked when I would be getting a girlfriend. Almost like there was a time limit to the whole thing. It's a strange way to think of relationships, but maybe...she does have the right idea? Maybe not. We finally talk about how men and women have different tastes in their mates. Kind of obvious right? Apparently not obvious enough for people to do a study and research 200 couples about it. We have an opinion about that... All that and so much more on this week's GLR! Wrapup:
July 10, 2011 10:42 AM PDT
This week, we talk about the power of tough love, that I too can be wrong about things and that Dani certainly can be right. The truth often hurts, and most people are more willing to save face and be kind rather than be brutally honest. Also we discuss about being a better person, and though I forget to mention it, we need to be help accountable. So find that person, which really should be yourself, and have them be the motivation to being better. Why settle for mediocre if you feel you can be better? Wrapup:
