112 is the number of this episode of Social Blend, and for this show we are joined by regular contributor Tom Cheredar aka Tched from GeeksOfDoom.com; and special guest William McDonald aka Poeticsoul44 from the awesome podcast GeeksFTW. We kick off the show by deliberately ignoring the Oil Spill in the Gulf, so we can devote more time to Tom giving us the report and details on the Nashville Flooding, how the mainstream media largely ignored the event, and how Social Media came to the forefront to cover the disaster.

Later, Will tells us about what he and his crazy crew get up to on the GeeksFTW podcast, and we segway into a mini discussion about Doctor Who. Jay reveals he actually HAS been watching the new series of Doctor Who, but then he jumps into the incredible story of the sniper who managed two kills over a distance of one-and-a-half miles. Unfreakingbelievable!

We touch on the Arizona Immigration issue by talking about Machete‘s message for that state (see the trailer at the bottom of the page!). Also, our band of the week is SHARK REPELLENT, William tells us about how Spider-man saved the day on Free Comic Day, and we have a quick look at how the Make A Wish Foundation made one young man become a superhero for a day! All this and more on this week’s edition of Social Blend!

Presented by Greg Davies (cGt2099 from cGt2099.com) and Jay Fowler (SilentJay74 from JuicySnake.com) the Social Blend is a fun, and hard-hitting, podcast, with no respect for rules.
