Get ready for another jam-packed episode of the 3 Geeks Podcast, where geek culture, wild opinions, and nerdy deep dives collide! This week, we’re celebrating Mother’s Day in true 3 Geeks fashion — by honoring the most unforgettable moms from the worlds of sci-fi and horror. From the fiercely protective to the downright terrifying, we’re counting down our Top 5 Mothers in Genre History. Who made the list? Who got snubbed? And who left us emotionally wrecked or hiding under our blankets? Whether they’re battling xenomorphs, raising future heroes, or haunting our dreams, these moms are iconic — and some of our picks might just surprise you.

But the motherly mayhem is just the beginning.

We’re also diving deep into the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe with our spoiler-heavy review of Thunderbolts. Did this darker, more grounded MCU entry deliver the goods? How does it shake up Phase 5? And what does it mean for the future of some of our favorite antiheroes? We’ve got hot takes, bold predictions, and some strong feelings.

Then, it’s time to return to the gritty, emotional apocalypse with our review of the latest episode of The Last of Us. This show continues to break our hearts and blow our minds with every twist. We’re unpacking the gut punches, the worldbuilding, and those unforgettable character moments that have made this series a genre-defining hit.

PLUS — Mike’s been hard at work pulling new trailers and clips, which means more YouTube reaction content is on the way! Whether it's mind-blowing teasers, big franchise reveals, or just the weirdest stuff the internet throws at us, we’re ready to react, dissect, and discuss it all.

So hit that Subscribe button, turn on your notifications, and don’t forget to drop your own Top 5 Sci-Fi or Horror Moms in the comments — we want to hear your picks!

Whether you’re here for the superhero analysis, the horror mom nostalgia, or just to hang with your favorite geeks, we’ve got something for every fan.
