Sleek Geeks S02E04 · Apocalypse

Overview

The End is Nigh – well possibly, but it certainly won't be anything to do with the Mayan Calendar. In this episode Karl and Adam sort the molten lava from the palaver and tell you why you should have superannuation plans for 2013 and beyond. As well as dispelling the 2012 myth, the Geeks look at the real threats the world faces. Supervolcanoes, Death Stars, Near Earth Objects, Plague and Nuclear annihilation. But its not all doom and gloom: Adam explains why its best to destroy zombies; Karl critiques the film 2012; Ruben shows you how to makes nuclear style mushroom clouds using a smoke machine and a garbage bin; Richard Morecroft and Tracey Spicer drop in and Rhys Muldoon and Benita Collings leave you with a reading from Revelations that will make you re-assess children's television.
