In this episode of the Official GonnaGeek Show, we reunite after the holiday season to catch up on personal misfortunes and major geek news.
We kick off the show talking about our Christmas festivities including Chris’s two-week battle with the flu and SP recounting his marathon layovers at Chicago O’Hare. We also talk about some recent experiences with Costco membership security and the ‘legitimate duplication’ of digital cards. Turning to tech news, we analyze Apple’s pivotal decision to partner with Google, using Gemini as the foundation for Apple Intelligence to upgrade Siri. The discussion shifts to the final frontier as SP provides detailed updates on NASA’s Artemis 2 mission, the move to historic Launch Pad 39B, and the burgeoning ‘space race’ involving SpaceX and Blue Origin. In entertainment news, Chris chats about the casting of Ryan Hurst as Kratos in Amazon Prime’s upcoming ‘God of War’ adaptation and debates the dark, gritty creative style of showrunner Ronald D. Moore. The episode also critiques Amazon’s streaming performance, the complexities of sports broadcasting rights, and a mysterious medical emergency that led to an early crew return from the International Space Station.
