In a very rare in-person episode the guys hang out at Brian’s Santa Monica pad and go over the weeks fun Internet news. Topics discussed Amazon going all you can eat. Space-X doing cool stuff. Great books of the week and the best new website on the Internet.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/91

Ravaged by the elements and in-laws the guys rally to get back on the horse and discuss grammar atrocities, the Lizard Squad foibles, WSJ making silly moves, car radios under attack in Sweden, why middle-men are a bad idea, and other silliness.

In their final show of the year, Brian and Jason wrap up with their own version of the holiday listicle and thank you's to the listeners. Jason's noise gate is still broken so holiday apologies.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/2014-year-end-special

In the last full show of the year the guys take on Sony and their cowardice. Oprah is going full Amanda Palmer. Rappers are morons. And the best gift you can get this year is a box of bullshit. Happy holidays everyone and thank you for listening!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/89

Jason dives into the sharing economy with bizarre results. Brian has never had sex on acid. Sony is still hosed. The Newsroom gets weird. Jason can't find a cuddle buddy. Brian finds the best website on the Internet. Ever!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/88

The true purpose of Twitter has been discovered and it's unsurprisingly about poo. San Francisco moves to Silicon Beach. Bring on man-poo beach. Security is off the hook. A bunch of new podcasts to check out. And Jason finally gives up on the FitBit.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/87

Still full from Thanksgiving the guys cover topics such as the new Star Wars trailer, deleting becoming obsolete, the death of ethics in journalism, the lack of transparency in Spotfy, Kickstarter pivoting to a storefront and more. Pass the leftovers...

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/86

In the strangest episode to date, Jason buries the tin-foil hat & Brian takes up the mantle of Grumpy Prime. Uber Incompetence is on the rise. WTF was Mattel thinking? Podcasting renaissance is balderdash. No sparks actually fly over Amanda f'in Palmer.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/85

Tara "Tiger" Brown joins us to talk about her new project and super fun stuff. No, she is NOT the no talent ass clown of which this episode is named. You get one guess who that is. But humanity did land on a comet! And Brian still reads vampire novels.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/84

This is a very long episode where we cover a metric-ton of epic stuff. That said I'm extremely late for an appointment so just listen to it ok? Thanks!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/83

Brian hammers home some more bad news about the sharing economy and Uber. Many people are in search of the elusive Ubercorn. Why is hash-tagging done so poorly. Anonymity online is a fools errand. More books, podcasts, and even an app!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/82

Fur flies in this action packed episode where two people, without actual fur, go fisticuffs over the future of social networks. Astute business advice from a chronically broke dude. The 'Horribleification' of the Internet. And the music biz is still dead.

In their best episode yet, we discuss the NFL and not paying their taxes, flying cars, drone racing, San Francisco doing something right, Bugzilla, Silk Road, the open source security farce, big social data, Twin Peaks, and even more goodies!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/79

This week the guys go full Luddite and discuss the erosion of humanity from too much technology and the vapid obsessions of an always on society.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/78

Big fingers required. Apple just won't stop screwing up. Facebook gets drones. The great gay exodus and the future of Ello. Bash is broken and nerds everywhere pull an all-nighter. Kevin Mitnick is cashing in. And oh so much more...

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/77

Stay the hell out of our thought experiments! You're stuck with Twitter's shenanigans for a few years. Jason dumps his technolust. Brian got his Uber reach-around finally. The 1099 economy hits new lows. We review some crappy young adult novels.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/76

Best value at a bar. Ask A Geek: why we don't build apps, why we work on the web, and what's up with our personal projects. How to handle getting hacked. Pizza and domestic violence. They love crowdfunding money, not so keen on providing those rewards.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/75

Arguments about the nature of security and The Fappening. Uber needs a come to Jesus moment soon. Musicians as CEO's. Musicians as stalker/hacker victims. Some Joan Rivers love. Home Depot customers are allegedly screwed. And don’t trust your cellphone!

This week's show is a work in progress and we were strapped for time so our new bumpers are pretty rough. All apologies. Otherwise, we make more fun of Yo!, Google I/O, Android "L"oser, and toss in some productivity talk.

Show notes: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/64

It's a good week for us. Yo!, Slingshot, and Washboard are all the buzz and we're all left scratching our heads on what the hell is going on. Brian apologizes. Jason is sick as a dog and contrary to Brians accusations, there was only 1 swig of Jamesons.

We discuss the dark side of the quantified self and discuss the tools of laziness, which for the next 30 days are mainly beer and soccer. Some goodness in the world of patents and how F-Me money might just save the day.

Show notes: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/62

It's an interestingly grumpy and funny week as the guys talk about Orange is the New Black, WWDC, the state of the Internet and Google and Facebooks stranglehold on content as well as a journalist who's gone rogue. Some interesting security news & more!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/61

Brian's up in arms about crowdfunding again but in a good way. Jason reviews the Shine by Misfit and a new book on sleep. Google has a crappy new car and we both agree that the Internet needs to consciously uncouple from Gwyneth Paltrow for good.

Show notes: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/60

After a week of epic media consumption the guys defend Adam Carolla, crap on Julian Assange, review a ton of books and podcasts, drink tasty tea, and run down the top NSA stories this week. A full-on frenzy of goodness with minimal grump.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/59

The ice caps are melting, Jason is stocking up on knives, Brian is becoming a coffee snob, neither of the guys want to talk about the Apple Beats non-story, and *GASP* it's hard to get a writing job in Los Angeles.

Show notes: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/58

In this special bitchfest episode the guys talk about time, the Internets warping of said time, and how there is no such thing as a sharing economy.

Show notes: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/57

Jason discusses his plans to join the Russian mafia. Brian rants about Facebook's new algorithm. Both guys talk about how programming sucks and is melting our brains. Self-driving cars are going to be needed because of aforementioned brain drain.

Show Notes: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/56

Jason cuts back on the caffeine after his Cornholio impersonation in episode 54. The guys talk home ownership vs. being a technomad. Some iOS battery fixes, software updates and books we love, and the general nerdery you love, as always.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/55

This week Jason breaks free of the hell of MediaTemple, Brian gets furnished, Jason gets caffeinated with a dirty apparatus, Brian talks cool ways to get badass signed books, Jason discovers the app of his dreams, as well as nightmares. And belfies!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/54

Friend of the show Jay Goldman joins us from NYC to talk about Facebook shenanigans and his new book "The Decoded Company." Jason has one of his patented epiphanies about how tech is cooler than ever but the people making it just aren't.

Show notes at: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/53

We're joined again by Dr. David Teter to talk about douchebaggery in the government and silliness in the private sector. Brian and Jason agree to agree about Wil Wheaton only after disagreeing vehemently. Many new apps and stuff like that.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/52

It's the one year anniversary of Grumpy Old Geeks! Jason's off his meds, literally and Brian is having mid-life buyers remorse. This leads to a classic grump fest like we used to do while everything we love is ripped from us, as usual.

http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/51

Brian has officially joined the middle-class and hates his life! Between his contractors banging around and Jason's neighbors fleet of lawn mowers it was a miracle we got this thing done. Please enjoy episode 50 where we did nothing at all to celebrate!

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/50

Ruminations on train travel in the digital age. Jason has gone back to Squarespace kicking and screaming and it almost cost him a laptop. The age old discussion of ageism in tech continues. Brian discovers crowd beer. Jason has his last WordPress fit. Ever.

Show notes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/49

This episode is dedicated to anyone who has had to utter the words "Clear your cache and reload." We feel your pain and just want you to know that you're not alone. This show was edited and posted from an Amtrak Southwest Chief train from Chicago to LA!

http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/48

In this action packed episode we discuss how Jason busted open the underground ring of hackers who have infiltrated Apple and are breaking iOS for cash. Brian introduces a new coalition of musicians who aren't standing for it any more. And more!

Shownotes at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/47

This week, a discussion on the emerging landscape of middle-tier funding sites for indy artists. Touch on the WhatsApp sale and dig deeper on other Facebook internals like news feed fisting and dating data. Jason talks about his new iOS recording rig.

Show notes for this episode are at http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/46

We finally have the proof that you should never advertise on Facebook! Ever! We put the stake in the bird of flappy and replace it with an actually AWESOME game. We uncover the secret to pageview journalism, riff on John Oliver and review some new apps!

Shownotes at: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/45

The guys talk about their fun on Twitter with the Secret App team, Jason's got a spiral fracture in his leg and should have seen a health care professional sooner, Facebook turns 10 but are still jerks, our African listener mystery is solved and more!

Shownotes for this show at: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/44

Jason still hasn't slept more than 3 hours a night for 2 weeks. We had so much fun we could barely stop. Much to Brians chagrin. Jason defends his honor. We talk some workflows and software. We uncover some cool new podcasts and apps too!

For shownotes go to http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/43

Jason is injured, sleep deprived, and at an existential crossroad so we call in Dr. David Teter and Jordan Harbinger to sort out this mess of a nerd which is totally appropriate for episode 42.

For shownotes please go to http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/42

We follow-up on last week's app recommendations with surprising results. A listener asks about podcasting tips and we do our best to answer. Also included, two rants and talk about how net neutrality being shot-down will cause major un-disruption.

For shownotes on this episode please visit: http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/41

The guys are back together for a special in-person episode in the Venice Beach Studio. They talk about lots of things that make them grumpy and Jason keeps confusing Terminator and Transformers. Brian busts out some new apps and the like.

For shownotes for this episode please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/40

Sean Bonner joins the guys in the studio this week to enlighten us on Bitcoin and other baubles. Brian gets belligerent about Beyoncé news. Billionaire Bill Gates plays Santa, and more news about how everyone is saying screw-it to privacy.

In this pre-holiday run up we clear out our libraries and dump our brain buckets on you. Books may be the new TV but we talk some TV too. Zombies tech takes leap forwards and Snowden is still chillin in Russia. Basically, the usual, but fresher!

For shownotes please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/38 and to support the show please visit http://tugboatyards.com/gog

In this episode we try and take some user feedback to heart and do a more lighthearted show filled with goodness, light, and the brighter side of the human condition. Yeah, didn't work. But at least we had a really good laugh doing it!

This week our special guest is author Tim Ferriss. Tim sat with us for an hour and we talked about his new show on HLN, his amazing new book club, cool stuff about the quantified self, sleep hacking, and more. We even got a story that wasn't in the books!

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/36 for this weeks show notes.

The guys are swamped this week so they take an informal chat approach like the old days while still covering the usual goodies and the guys cut loose on get rich quick schemes.

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/35 for the show notes for this episode.

In this episode of Grumpy Old Geeks we talk the dystopian future of The Circle, what are they smoking at Snapchat, anti-rape clothing, sleep tips, working tips, business tips, just the tips. It's a humdinger!

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/34 for the show notes for this episode.

This week our show sounds like an homage to Edward R. Murrow's reports from the London Blitz. Brian explores the pubs and sweet shops of Jolly Old and has a run in with the Royals. Jason requires caffeine but opts for a morning Miller to liven things up.

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/33 for the show notes for this episode.

Happy Halloween from the geeks! Our first Halloween episode is very long and extremely salty. Definitely NOT for the puritanical. Hot sauce. Big butts. Facebook riddles. Stupid nerds. Smart writers. Nefarious employees. Inept government. More!

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/32 for the show notes for this episode.

Apple released a bunch of new goodies. Japan needs to lay the hell off with their "science". What the hell is up with Wyoming? The fastest week in security news ever and a bunch of other stuff we usually do.

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/31 for the show notes for this episode.

Jason tempts the fate of the Pod Gods and gets smote upside the head. The American Dream is a fallacy. Scaling back can lead to a happier and healthier life. Kickstarters, podcasts, and books we actually like! And we visit the happiest place on Earth.

Please visit http://grumpyoldgeeks.com/30 for the show notes for this episode.

Mike Vinikour joins GOG this week for a fascinating talk about the dirty underbelly of how video games are really made and interesting career paths. Audio gets wonky for a few minutes at the end but it fixes fast so power through!
