My friend Xaque Gruber wrote and directed a semi-autobiographical film about meeting his idol Sally Kirkland... and that's just the start of the crazy story. But how much of it is true? Geekscapists might not know the name Xaque Gruber but he and I have a history that goes back longer than Geekscape: almost 20 years! We first met while working as Hollywood assistants and while the work was thankless and the pay was worse, Xaque always gave me something to look forward to each day! So of course when I got the chance to have Xaque on the show to talk about his new award-winning film 'Sallywood'. I was going to jump at the chance to catch up with him! The semi-autobiographical 'Sallywood' tells the true story of 20-something "Zack", who moves to Hollywood from Maine to pursue a Hollywood career. In a chance encounter, he meets his lifelong idol Sally Kirkland, who hires him on the spot to be her assistant. Learning that her once Oscar-nominated career is now in shambles, Zack dedicates himself to finding a way to land her back on the red carpet where she belongs! So again... how much of this story is true? Listen to find out!

This holiday season saw the release of Marvel's "What If?" Season 2... a continuation of their critically successful animated multiverse series!

Which of the 9 semi-standalone stories were breakout favorites? What characters and storylines helped to enhance our enjoyment of the established MCU? And which multiverses do we want to see more of? I'm joined by my ward Garrett Briones to discuss his and more on a brand new Geekscape!

On the last day of the year, join me and Geekscape Book Club and Marvel Movie Talk host Christian Bladt as we bid farewell to both 2023 and the entire Snyderverse. That's right... we're finally talking about 'Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom'. Was it the exciting swan song that we all expected it to be? Does it improve on the "so off the wall insane that it's kinda awesome" formula of the first one? Or does it leave us with one last breath as it disappears into the deep? Join us as we say goodbye to this phase of DC films and discuss what elements of them may rise to the surface one day soon...!
