Hosts Nick Jarin and Dyer Oxley start things off with a survey of news in the geek world, including why Gal Gadot reportedly threatening to leave Wonder Woman, DC Comics parting with an editor with a history of sexual misconduct allegations, and why Amazon is ponying up to buy the rights to a Lord of the Rings TV show.
