- A light in the dark
I feel like Princess Jasmine and Amanda and Monika are Aladdin because they’ve opened up a whole new world for me. They’ve helped me understand more about the struggles that woman are facing in our entertainment sphere, and as a father to a LGBTQIA+ child, Amanda and Monika have given me the tools to now open up a whole new world for my kiddo. To me that is everything. My son was dealing with crippling depression and he finally started to over come that when he came out. Now we’re exploring cont... more

United States5 years ago - You need this podcast in your life!
These ladies are not afraid to tackle difficult subjects on their podcast. They have great guests and create shows that really make you think about things, yet still staying in the world of geekdom. The chemistry between the two hosts is amazing.

United Kingdom5 years ago - Improving My Perspectives
This podcast has been helping me improve my perspectives over the years. Amanda and Monika are very passionate AND they want the world to be better. They talk about hard topics, some that other podcasts may want to shy away from. When a well-known author of a book about a school said stuff, I was able to turn to this podcast for guidance.
Plus, even when not on the podcast, they are open to dialogue in their Discord! Add this to your podcast app now!
Apple Podcasts5Jonathan BloomUnited States5 years ago - Awesome, geeky, and inclusive!
Amanda and Monica are amazing people, and the geekiness is in top, all while being inclusive no matter who you are. Definitely worth a listen. Favorite episode is the interview with Thyst from Lagging Balls.

I can say that this is an eye opening podcast for both men and women alike. It delves into so many poinent topics that surround femanism & gender roles in regards to geek culture. Each episode stays focused on the topic while asking some thought provoking questions! Keep up the hard and good work!

Apple Podcasts5Michael Heit of Food and FuryUnited States7 years ago - The future is for everyone.
Geek Herring takes a look at the world of geek in a critical way, while keeping conversation engaging and welcoming.
I think it's a really important movement to continue to talk about feminism in a way that educates and gets somebody to stop and think about the impact of actions or words in both positive and negative circumstances. Geek Herring does just that.
Amanda & Monika have amazing chemistry together, and it makes every episode an enjoyable listen.
I'm looking forward to following your... more
Apple Podcasts5FydriaUnited Kingdom7 years ago - A Podcast Worth your time
As a consumer of many different type of podcasts, some that are objectively not the greatest, I can say with complete honesty that this is one worth your time!
Chemistry between hosts is essential to a podcast in my opinion, just as much as the content that is covered, and Geek Herring delivers both excellently. I am never bored listening to these women discuss whatever topic they are covering.
Words like feminism can alienate some people based on their opinions on the subject but it is prese... more
