McKinleyCast: a Freaks and Geeks Introcast

McKinleyCast is back with a brand new episode and a new guest- Harold Joins us to discuss this surprisingly controversial episode of Freaks and Geeks. I found myself very surprised to see how differently the members of this group saw the characters and situations. We hope you all find the discussion interesting, and see your […]

In this episode, The Freaks battle love on all sides, while the Geeks learn a little more then they wanted to know about it (no- Daniel doesn’t supply them with another porno)- but they lose just as much innocence. Meanwhile, we the hosts of McKinleycast are glad to be back!  We hope you join us […]

It’s time for another McKinleycast! (It’s been 4 months, so….yeah) This week we watched Looks and Books and many cringed as Sam bought that Parisian Nightsuit knowing what was coming that next morning and all rejoiced as Lindsay told off the freaks in a spectacular way and shed her army jacket for a very sensible […]

We’re back again with another installment, discussing the awkwardness that is McKinley High School. In this episode Bill decides he wants to be given a chance to play baseball in gym class and through creative means actually succeeds. Lindsay and Kim’s budding friendship takes a hit when the Weirs invite Kim’s mom to dinner and […]

Remember us?…crickets… Well, Whatever- we’re back with a new episode of McKinleycast. Listen as Carol, Ayse, Caitrin, Emily and Dean discuss the Freaks and Geek’s episode “We’ve Got Spirit”.

In this iconic episode of Freaks and Geeks, we see Lindsay and Nick together at last. Then we see absolutely every person around her stick their nose in her love life, which is a lot for one teenage girl to take. Plus her new boyfriend spells wait “wate”. Is this a relationship killer? Tune in. […]

This time, we are invited into Carol and Alex’s virtual TV den to enjoy Girlfriends and Boyfriends as they watch it for the first time. So sync your Walkman with your VCR, kick back, and enjoy.

We’re here again (so soon!), with another McKinleycast as promised. Join us while we chat about the episode that caused us to get up, put on our shirts and say, “Hot Dog! Let me at ’em” and yes, we actually said the words “hot dog”.) In this episode the freaks get fake ID’s courtesy of […]

Hey there, our beloved Freaks and Geeks: Yes, we have been running into obstacles getting these shows out, but we are still here. Last Sunday for instance, we were going to record an episode but things went wrong and we ended up just chatting. Rich was recording, so we thought- hey why don’t we just […]

McKinleycast is back after the holidays with a brand new episode discussing I’m With the Band!  Join us as we watch the freaks do as high school garage bands do by playing badly, fight over the name, fight over the practices, and play badly.  Then break up.  Meanwhile the geeks are faced with the charge […]

When Mr. Kowchevski threatens to force Daniel to repeat algebra for another year if he doesn’t pass an upcoming test, Lindsay offers to help him study for it. Instead, Lindsay finds herself helping Daniel to cheat after Daniel manages to steal a test from the teacher’s office and he asks Lindsay to help him fill […]

Sit back, relax and enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend (if you live in the USA) and rewatch the 4th episode of Freaks and Geeks: Tests and Breasts with newbie Carol and her son Alex who is also a newbie whom you may remember from such episodes as Beers and Weirs. After doing that, […]

Wait… what did that say? After Tricks and Treats, Kim Kelly is the last person in the world I would want to call my friend. Sure she is negative. Sure everything out of her mouth thus far has been rude. Sure she acts out in horrible ways when something or someone is the least bit […]

Hope you are all still in the Halloween spirit because Halloween has come to… well some nondescript area in the outskirts of Detroit and the holiday is just not what it used to be. While Jean and Sam desperately try to cling on to Halloweens past, Lindsay desperately tries to fit in with her new […]

Episode 2 is up! This week’s episode finds the Weir parents going out of town for the weekend (Ooooo… Paul Anka– can I come??) and leaving Lindsay in charge. That can only mean one thing… the freaks taking advantage of Lindsay’s desperation to look cool in front of her new friends and persuading her to […]

Hello all you freaks (and probably a few geeks)– The long awaited pilot episode is here! Join us for what we can only assume will be a longer then average episode as we get the newbie’s reaction to their first hint into the world of McKinley High School. In this episode, we meet siblings Lindsey […]
