Alex and Joe join Nic once again to continue the conversation that started two weeks ago. This time, the guys discuss anti-heroes and villains and how they should be portrayed in film. They also debate on how time travel would theoretically work in the real world and, unsurprisingly, nerd out some more about Star Wars (but a surprising amount of it is relevant to the conversation). Next week...Jon and Seth return! Recorded 07/24/2024 ..read more

Alex and Joe (formerly of the Flipping Tables Podcast) return to the studio to join Nic about a deep conversation about the portrayal of nudity, sexuality and violence as well as the light and dark sides of the ever-expanding Star Wars universe. Recorded 07/10/2024 ..read more

Today, Nic reads some feedback emails from a couple listeners and responds to them. Some spicy topics include parody and blasphemy in film, how far is too far, and why the '80s were the greatest decade in pop culture history. Nic also found an excuse to gush about Back to the Future. It's that good of a movie and the soundtrack really is that amazing. Send in your feedback or questions to genesiuspodcast@gmail.com. We just might respond on the show going forward. Recorded 06/26/2024 (into 06/27/2024) --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/genesius-podcast/messa ..read more

Nic is back with another bonus episode! In light of the recent disappointing episode of The Acolyte, Nic talks about how story needs to be prioritized in filmmaking, why Star Wars has actually been largely successful at this, and how good and evil need to be portrayed correctly in modern media. Oh, and it should be known that it was this podcast that predicted the new Hunger Games story. We're not taking credit for this happening...but we kind of are.

For the first time in Genesius history, Nic (joined once again by Kyle and Megan) starts a revolution by tackling not one, but TWO films in a single episode. To be fair, though…it’s one very long movie split into two parts. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the sixty-eighth somewhat-weekly episode of the Genesius Podcast.
