About this podcast
A podcast for people who like movies and hate cops. Every...I dont know, month or so you can get captured by the spectacle and listen to some some anti-authoritarian freaks get together to jib jab about video games, shows, comics, and anything under the umbrella of nerd shit using that as a springboard to get silly in ways that will sound bad in court proceedings later (all things said on the podcast are parody and in minecraft, nice try FBI)
Formerly The Anarcho-Geek Power Hour.
A production of Strangers in a Tangled Wilderness
