They're into movies, toys and TV shows, comics and collecting and super heroes.  There's no end to the useless stuff they know, but don't call them GEEKS, they're just Regular Joes!

Oct 3, 2025

You can live in a fascist utopia where everything seems ideal, as long as you don’t look too closely at the uncomfortable details. Or, you can live in a techno-oligarchy, where a handful of mega corporations make all of the decisions for you with little regard beyond their bottom line.

Fortunately, you don’t have to choose, because Peacemaker on HBO Max (I think that’s what it is called this week) and Alien Earth on FX/Hulu let you stick a toe in each universe.

This week, the Regular Joes wrap up the first season of Noah Hawley’s Alien Earth, and discuss the episode six reveal that drives home how little we understood what is actually happening in James Gunn’s Peacemaker season two. Are they good? Let’s just say these two creators excel at getting new life out of existing properties.

There’s also the usual Random Topics and around of What’s in the Box.

Thanks for listening!
