Happy Valentine’s Day—now let’s talk about the lies. This week the wives join Matt and John to decode marriage the way it’s actually lived: messy, funny, and wildly different depending on which spouse is translating. We kick off with Husband Translation Service, where phrases like “I’ll do it later” and “It wasn’t that expensive” get instantly reinterpreted into what wives actually hear. Then we put rom-com romance myths on trial—grand gestures, surprise dates, mind-reading “soulmate” nonsense—and break down why Hollywood’s version of love looks cute on screen but collapses in a real household. It’s playful, honest, and painfully relatable… in the best way.Find Geeks From The Multiverse show through:Our BioLink: gftmpodcast.bio.link

America doesn’t have a “people are weaker now” mental health crisis. It has a systems failure—and the receipts are brutal.In this Evolve episode of Geeks From The Multiverse, we cut through the lazy narratives and talk about what’s actually broken. The need for mental health care is real. The infrastructure? A mess. Month-long waitlists. Insurance companies acting like final bosses with prior authorizations and denials. “In-network” providers who don’t exist. And patients tossed into provider roulette—where some clinicians are incredible and others should absolutely not be licensed.This is a no-fluff conversation about workforce shortages, ghost networks, burnout, and a system seemingly designed to exhaust people until they quit asking for help. We also get practical: how to find care faster, how to push back on denials, how to recognize a bad provider early, and what to do if you’re in a spiral and need help now, not three months from now.This isn’t weakness. It’s survival in a broken maze.🎧 Find the show + all links here: gftmpodcast.bio.link#GeeksFromTheMultiverse #Evolve #MentalHealth #SystemFailure #Podcast

We break down the highs (Black Flag), the misunderstood ambition (Unity), the moral curveballs (Rogue), and the side titles that did more world-building than fans remember. Plus, in Bring It Back, we make the case for resurrecting Jericho — a post-apocalyptic series canceled way too soon.

Matt and John break down Hot Tub Time Machine, 13 Going on 30, Big, The Adam Project, Freaky Friday, and every cinematic identity crisis in between.
