The Genius 4: Season Preview



The Genius: Grand Final is upon us! Give yourself a short break from listening to Melodie on repeat and compulsively refreshing Bumdi's Twitter page to hear our last-minute thoughts on the cast and twists of what promises to be a truly incredible season. Problems with our file hosting service have challenged our sub-Luddite understanding of technology, so we've uploaded the episode to Google Drive in case there are still issues with iTunes; alternatively, you can listen here.

The Genius Season 2 coverage

Our usual file hosting service must be an Aries, as iTunes is apparently not cooperating for many people. As a result we've uploaded the Season 2 podcasts to Google Drive so that you can download them if need be.

The Genius: Season Two in Review (Part 3)


With season four having already premiered in South Korea, we're back to bring you what will likely just be something with which to pass the time as you compulsively refresh Bumdidlyumptious' Twitter page. In today's podcast we cover everything from God's Judgment through the end of season two, including parting thoughts on each of the players and a quick preview of the utter pornography that will be The Genius: Grand Final. As always you can listen on the player below, find the direct link here, or find us on iTunes here.

TWITTER NOTE: In an effort to keep things as spoiler-free as possible for the hoobaes who won't get around to watching The Genius until BB17 is complete trash in a month (optimistic on both counts), follow and tag @GeniusTakes at the front of your Genius tweets so only those following the account will see your barrelfire musings.

Survivor 30: Wrap-Up Dance


It's only a few long, tedious weeks into the offseason, and we are back to say the same things as everyone else about the S30 finale but with an unnecessary delay. What did Mike need to win beyond skill at carnival games and Jesus? Probst's trashing of Dan may have been hilarious, but why was it also hypocritical? And now that the S31 cast is off starving in Cambodia, what do we actually think about them? As usual you can listen below, here, or on iTunes here.
