Geek Girl Soup

Author: Susan, Kelly, and Cort

Welcome to season 13 and about 600 episodes! The Geek Girls (and occasional guy!) chat about movies, TV, awards shows, the Soupies (our very own awards), and DEI in the entertainment industry. We love Apple TV, The Leftovers, Invasion, and The Fall of the House of Usher. One of us wont watch biopics. One of us watches horror flicks for comfort. And one of us gets teased for not liking comedy. Were all into sci-fi, the apocalypse, documentaries, time travel, all-things-Keanu Reeves, prestige TV, international films, and anything with Regina King. - Original music by Garrett Thompson.
