Just a note to let everyone know.  You can preorder your official GOL T-Shirt or hoodie now until December 15th.  We are shooting for at least 100 items to be sold, this would be a great help to the site and bolster some things we are wanting to do with the site and podcast down the road a bit.

Pre-orders will last for two weeks.  At the end of the two weeks, allow 4 to 6 weeks for the printing and shipping of  the shirts.  So while you won’t necessarily be able to have them by Christmas, you should be able to fulfill one of your most important resolutions for 2010:  SUPPORT GEEK OUT LOUD AND GEEK OUT ONLINE.

Depending on how these official shirts of the the official podcast of Geek Out Online sell, we have ideas for other designs down the road and may even go so far as to open up a full time store for the site where you can order GOL and GOO merch along with Big Honkin Show merch.

For now, let your geek flag fly proudly with an oh-so-cool shirt, hoodie, or both. Just click on the T-shirt tab above to order yours.

We are finally able to get a look at a mock up of the hoodies.  They are black with the GOL logo on the front and the “stenciled” logo on the back.  They will look suhweet.

It’s official.  The newest and best way to geek out with fellow members of the Geek Out Loud Nation are the new Geek Out Loud Forums: The official forums of the official podcast of Geek Out Online.  WOO HOO.

In the past week and a half I have been privileged to appear as a guest on a couple of podcasts outside of my usual realm of recording.

First, head over to Views From the Longbox’s website and check out episodes 58 and 58b to catch a discussion between Michael Bailey and myself concerning the Presidency of Lex Luthor. Recorded while watching the election returns, Bailey and I discuss the history, the presidency, and downfall of Luthor in the Superman books.

Then, I had the honor of guest hosting with Jason Spencer, my good friend Superclerk from the Geek Out Loud Forums, on his podcast The Shadowy Flight, a podcast all about Knight Rider. Head to this link to listen to his podcast and subscribe via iTunes.

Somehow, I’ve become the kings of plugs for my site over the past few months. In fact, it’s gotten to be a bit of a joke over at theStarkville House of El. So, what happens when I am a guest on other podcasts? I guess I pimp out both myself and their shows.

First, my good buddy Michael Bailey released the second part of a three part discussion we had at DragonCon. You can find that conversation along with the first part at www.viewsfromthelongbox.com. In the first part of the convo we talked about a lot of things. In this part, the plane finally lands and we stick to mostly Superman talk. Go check it out and while you’re there subscribe to Views. It really is a great podcast.

Secondly, I had the pleasure of meeting Dave Jones at DragonCon. (No, not the British singer from the Monkees.) He invited me to come on to his podcast at some point and a couple of weeks ago, I finally had the opportunity to sit down with Dave and Sam and talk all things Clone Wars. So head over to their place on podbean at thevortex.podbean.com. Dave and Sam were great and I had a great time yuckin’ it up about Star Wars with those guys. They are also into all things Dr. Who, so if you’re a fan of the Doctor, you will probably be a fan of these guys. They do a great job. Oh, and just so he’ll know…Dave is a friend of mine now…and I’m happy he is.

So, that’s where I am on the net this week. Now…if I can just figure out a way to will myself onto The Force Cast. We should so make that happen. GEEK OUT ARMY! FORWARD!

Well, after the small firestorm struck up by my commentary on Trekkies yesterday, I feel it’s time to offer up the olive branch and remind everyone that Geek Out Loud, the official podcast of Geek Out Online, has moved. The new website for the podast is www.geekoutpodcast.com.

If you go there, make sure that you use the link available to subscribe to the new feed.
