We’ve been pretty lazy when it comes to keeping up with this post where we recap what we’ve put out there during the week. I feel it’s high time we get back to that. There’s some great stuff going on behind the scenes as well as what you see here, with more to come next week!
On Monday, Adam tells us why Fitocracy might be the geekiest way to a healthier lifestyle.
On Tuesday Dan shared some old school maps and sky charts as the latest addition to our Weekly Wallpapers.
On Wednesday Jimmy checked out one of the Lego boardgames, but is this one Heroic enough?
On Thursday we were sadly absent from posting. Shame on us.
On Friday I posted the first entry in a new site-wide project where we’re keeping track of the movies we watch this year. Feel free to join in!
For our random old post this week we want to remind you how good the card game Yomi is.
Have a great weekend everybody! We’ll see you next week with Episode #00043 of our podcast, among other things.
I’ve been curious about LEGO board games for a while. They’ve been on the market for more than a year now, yet there really hadn’t been one that looked enticing enough for me to finally bite the bullet and make a purchase. But this past fall, LEGO unveiled their Heroica line of dungeon crawl games. “Great!,” I thought. One of my favorite genres mixed with everyone’s favorite building blocks – what could possibly go wrong?
As it turns out, plenty.

Another 2 weeks have gone by and we should all know what that means, another podcast! We even bridged the pre and post rapture time between this show. Remember the rapture? How big that was there for a week? Comes and goes so fast… hey, that’s actually relevant to this week’s show!
On a side note this show’s break music kicks much ass.
Listen and enjoy!
Here’s the link to give Perpetual Geek Machine: Show #00027 a listen!
Here’s the breakdown on where to find/follow us online!
Do you less than three show notes? Well then, you’re gonna wanna read on. (more…)
Us geeks do our best to let our hobbies permeate our every waking moment. We carry books in our backpacks, we play games on our phones, we talk about who’d win in a fight between Darth Vader, Spider-Man and Voldemort (it’s Voldemort BTW). On other words, we’re geeks 24/7, we’re the real fucking deal.
These items allow you to put it out there that not only are you a nerd, but you’re not going to be embarrassed about it. Take it, embrace it, hell… enjoy it!
