Grab your popcorn and dim the lights — this week on Original Geek, we’re firing up the old TV set for a trip back to Creature Double Feature! 👾

Steve and Jeff dig into the evolution of the movie monster — from the campy rubber suits of the 70s to the CGI behemoths that crush cities (and box offices) today. We’re talking Godzilla, Gill-Man, Dracula, Demogorgons, and the glorious weirdness that made monster flicks a geek rite of passage.

Expect laughs, nostalgia, and maybe a few jump scares as we break down:
🧟‍♂️ The golden age of Creature Features
🎥 How monster movies mirrored their eras
💀 Why practical effects still beat CGI
🧬 And the monsters that defined generations of geeks

Whether you grew up hiding behind the couch or cheering for the Kaiju, this episode’s for you.

🎧 Original Geek — for everyone who rolled their first d20 on shag carpet.

Welcome to Original Geek—the podcast for anyone who rolled their first d20 on shag carpet, waited hours for a comic book JPEG to load on dial-up, and wore the label “geek” back when it got you mocked, not monetized.

Hosted by stand-up comic Steve Scarfo and Forever DM Jeff Shaw, we dive deep into what it meant to be a geek in the '70s and '80s—and how that underground culture became the mainstream multiverse we live in today.

🎙️ Subscribe for weekly episodes on Dungeons & Dragons, Star Wars, comic book chaos, geek court debates, and critical hits from your childhood basement.

👾 Follow us @OriginalGeekPodcast on socials and visit OriginalGeekPodcast.com for merch, extras, and to send us your own geeky tales.

If you ever hid a Monster Manual like it was porn, you’re not alone. You’re an Original Geek. Welcome home.
