King Dom is back to where he once belonged, to journey with epic moviemaker Peter Jackson who follows The Fab Four in a miniseries that is "a documentary about a documentary". The Beatles: Get Back covers the group's creative process and divisions within a challenging runtime for an audience.
The 'Let It Be' album is often cited as a collaboration beset by tensions between the Beatles; Jay provides vocals on a miniseries that debunks old myths and releases unseen footage instead that shows more insight and a more upbeat side to its production.
Joining our line-up is the multi-talented content creator Jess Paul of This Is Jess Paul channel, sharing her music journalist expertise and Beatlemania on argumentatively the biggest band in the world.

TERROR TERRA
Steven takes Geeksweat by the hand through the creepy corridors of Hammer House Of Horrors to visit classic horror movie characters that have roamed our imaginations across three different centuries.
By exploring two Fifties films this episode reanimates interest in The Curse Of Frankenstein (1957) and the equally fang-tastic Dracula (1958) - films that were both pivotal to the birth of Hammer Horror.
Jay and MKH grab their shovels to dig up yesteryear and bring gouged eyes into the laboratory of Terror Terra, so they can see the grisly goings-on featuring both Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.

King Dom phones it in for his segment that takes to the wilderness to discuss Grizzly Man (2005) a film with footage created by Timothy Treadwell and posthumously edited together by Werner Herzog.
Jay and MKH camp out with Geeksweat to discuss the wildlife enthusiasts story and dispassionate director's interpretation of a life lived on the edge in a national park that was home to wild bears.

REVIEW SWEAT
King Dom goes back to school to learn the finer points of one of the trickier subjects about growing up, as portrayed in the Netflix relationship comedy Sex Education.
On hand to offer a few tips and point us in the right direction is Jay, whilst MKH is feverishly enthusiastic to demonstrate the pros and cons of this diverse, eclectic and genre-redefining series.

The conveyor belt of video game-to-film adaptations keeps on turning and it's time to review how Sonic The Hedgehog (2020) turned out after it runs off the production line, as it took Sega ages.

REVIEW SWEAT
King Dom delves deeper into the dark chapters and beginnings of a medical professional character who had previously been portrayed in the world of film. Netflix presents a new and cruel series Ratched.
Having looked at a prequel American T.V. series based on an iconic character (Bates Motel) we revisit the theme with a series about Mildred Ratched, set in 1947 a character written by Milos Forman for One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest (later an Oscar-winning film).
Jay and Steven surgically examine the programme and its nerve endings that are connected to the thriller, suspense and drama; as well as the archaic U.S. medical system in the name of progress.

No escape, no memory, no chance of survival. It is time to navigate the cryogenic horror about a doctor suffering from memory loss and hallucinations who is now battling with what she must do to survive.
Jay and Steven join this voyage into 2021's French-language science fiction, psychological, survival horror film. So, what did we need to engage with this single person nightmare scenario set-up?

Terror Terra (Japan)
Our new segment and old host takes Geeksweat to the Land Of The Rising Sun for this instalment and our journey into horror Steven serves a new flavour as we adjust to the tastes of House (1977) and Audition (1999).
A retrospective look at the zany Seventies horror classic is where we will rest our heads for the night to discover how seven schoolgirls learn more about things that go bump in the night (and day) at a haunted house.
While in the late Nineties we come to learn about the misogynistic activities of an advertising executive who is trying to find a shortcut to love, by exploiting the casting process of one of his latest projects for personal gain. Only he will find he has more than met his love match,
Joining in are Jay and TJ as they travel out and check in to the latest terrifying offering that cinema screens have to show the world from the Far East.

King Dom takes a deep dive into the oceanic world with this episode in the selection of documentary films, as the tantalising tentacles drawing Geeksweat in comes in the shape of water flowing around My Octopus Teacher.

Review Sweat
Steven checks in to motel Geeksweat and books in the Review Sweat room to tread a path to the series of suspense and sorrow that is Bates Motel as we delve into the past life of an iconic character.

As a recipient of the Best Actor award at the BAFTAs and the Oscar's Joaquin Phoenix chose to use his raised platform to discuss raising up others who are less well-represented.

Our own Best Wokester MKH takes time to pick apart the integrity from the vanity of this moment in the spotlight. What is Joaquin's game? Which card is this Joker playing? Has the mask fallen off Hollywood's utopia?

The series begins under the cloud of a ferocious murder of an alpaca, but what else catches the eye in this fantasy, psycho-drama and is there anything that will get the average anime fan salivating for more?

MKH has hot Asian men on the brain, but what is he really talking about here??....of course he wants to know whether Asian men in cinema and film are part of a new wave or just a passing phase.
Bar Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Donnie Yen, the on-screen representation of east-Asian men since the beginning of cinema has been limited in western film and television productions until the last decade.
Are we on the verge of a renaissance? Particularly now that east Asian men are being cast in less stereotypical roles with more stories positioning them as leading characters rather than background or supporting cast members.

Martin Scorsese explains why many women didn't go into the speaking parts of his films, so MKH speaks on "going in" on Scorsese's seemingly politically incorrect approach to storytelling. To some, Scorsese is a living legend and genius director!!!
For others, he is simply a man out of time, who is right? With his recent criticisms of the "fairground attraction" films that are from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, MKH takes time to wonder what type of representation (or simulation) a Scorsese film stands for based on his uber-masculine template.
Could these latest comments be the off-shoots of a fantastic marketing campaign or deep-rooted true feelings? The director of Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas and Wolf Of Wall Street is brought to book alongside good-fellow presenters Jay and King Dom.

Trevor goes back, forth and back again about why DARK is the premier series on time travel to date. The German science-fiction drama is becoming critically acclaimed, yet it may be a little less known in the wave of U.S. sci-fi.
What are the 'stranger things' setting this apart from the 'fringe' as the 'counterpart' to a 'westworld' of sci-fi, as 'the expanse' of its audience rises to a 'legion' from just 'the man in the high castle'.

Steven takes the lead as Thanos's advocate (so to speak) for the GeekSweat take on Avengers: Endgame and the not only the end of an era, but the culmination of MCU.

“I used to be embarrassed, because I was just a comic book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers. And then I began to realize: entertainment is one of the most important things in people's lives. Without it, they might go off the deep end. I feel that if you're able to entertain, you're doing a good thing.” Stan Lee (28.12.1922 - 12.11.2018)

We start with a discovery of William Hartnell and how he came to be the first of the generation of Doctors to dwell on our screens as the infamous time lord from Gallifrey and his era as The First Doctor.
The UK's most successful science fiction character regenerates once more as we start from the beginning and follow the evolution of one of Britain's best-loved doctors and the most unlikely superhero.

Going deep down and dirty on whether it is now acceptable to make films on anything less than a 35 mm/digital film camera and dare we say less than a DSLR??
iPhones are emerging as the go-to cinematic device for cinema distribution. So what does it all mean? Introducing the Smartphone upsurge to the cinema screen. King Dom, MKH and TJ talk about it.
This conversation takes in inspiration from films like Detour, Tangerine and Unsane in order to get acclimatized and refocus on the world of film and how they are being made today.

King Dom, MKH, TJ and White Falcon look at the smoking guns that are in the Trailer Talk alley; but which ones are firing on all cylinders and which ones are firing blanks? So, sit down, strap up and tune in.
Our trail of talk is on Solo (Ahlden Ehrenreich), Mary Magdalene (Joaquin Phoenix) and Avengers: Infinity War (Robert Downey Jr.). With a healthy dose of speculation and guesswork on the immediate future of the Avengers and "phase 3" of the MCU, as we know it.

Opinions will be interrogated in the GeekSweat chambers among our codenamed agents.
White Falcon, King Dom and MKH find out more about a series created in 2015 by Steven Conrad; featuring Michael Dorman, Kurtwood Smith, Aliette Opheim and Terry O'Quinn to name a few.

Steven looks into cult classic TV in the UK, where the new face of espionage arrived as a British television series created in 1961.
Initially focused on Dr. David Keel (Ian Hendry), and aided by John Steed (Patrick Macnee); The Avengers soon became the template of how to be partnered by a succession of assistants.
Particularly, assistants who were intelligent, stylish and assertive women; played by Honor Blackman, Diana Rigg and Linda Thorson.

What is Peak Offence? As importantly....What does it look like? Why is it happening? Where is it taking place? Who is asking for it to stop? Why should be (or not be) offended? What's going wrong??
King Dom breaks down the mischievous & malicious behaviour that takes place on micro & macro levels in (and out) of the film industry from film reviews to casting decisions and award nominations.
An endless cacophony of reasons for people to be easily offended or a louder platform to call people out on their standards. Listen in, find out more and hear how even Peter Rabbit is part of the problem
