Naked Tech Podcast
There’s something certifiably strange with Marvel’s latest cinematic release. The much loved comic book hero finally comes alive on the big screen and we get to see Benedict Cumberbatch depict Steven Strange, master of the mystic arts. What worked? What dragged on? What does it now mean for the MCU and where are all the infinity stones anyway?
We cover all of this in quite some detail and much more on episode 78 of The Lazy Couch podcast.
San Diego is where it’s at this week with all the fanfare and geeky goodness coming out of the annual nerd fest that is Comic-Con. We flip out over the new Justice League teaser, Wonder-Woman doing the splits in her solo movie, Kurt Russell playing a living planet with a “space-dong” (sic), and the Wu-tang-ification of Marvel. Find out if Kelvin really is a Cumber-bitch, and Geoff may or may not try to impersonate Pikachu!
But first, we’ll cover some tech news for the week including the sale of Yahoo, Citymapper finally being directed to Sydney and Melbourne, and Elon Musk outlining his master plan without sounding too evil. This and so much more in this San Diego Comic-Con extravaganza of an episode.
Mark Zuckerberg lays out Facebook’s 10 year plan and roadmap to dominate all aspects of your daily life. We are not surprised. Microsoft may have stole some of the thunder last week, but Facebook are also all in on bots and use of natural language for its slew of messenger apps to be your life OS.
In movies, there are new trailers for Doctor Strange, Suicide Squad, Captain America: Civil War, and the Harry Potter prequel – Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. And what’s that? Do we finally know who will play the villain in Sony’s upcoming Spider-Man movie?
We are on a very short 1-week hiatus at the moment but rest assured, we will be back as strong as ever next week with all the latest in technology, movies, the internet and all things geeky. Keep it locked in here on The Lazy Couch podcast.
This week, we forget a bunch of names of actors and movies! We also take a look at the corporate culture at Amazon, what the next big thing is at Apple and explore the possibility of entering ‘the matrix’ at a new gaming centre in Melbourne. There’s also news from Disney’s D23 Expo and a whole lot more on episode 28 of The Lazy Couch.
