Thanks to the returning Andruw, this episode is brought to you by the letter A, and it's about...anything. We start off catching up with what Andruw's been doing, and we gradually transition into more geeky topics from there.

- Preston asked what food in movies or TV would we most like to eat? Preston had good answers. Andruw had a weird example. Todd didn't have a favorite example, off the top of his head, but had a couple random examples...one from "Babylon 5" (shocker). This topic also led to tangents of a bug-eater from a "Everybody Loves Raymond" episode, Subway product placement on "Chuck," and the Pixar movie "Ratatouille."

- What stunt did the funny & sarcastic "Red Letter Media" YouTube channel pull that was comedic, semi-educational, and very charitable, all at once? Just how many thousands of dollars did their stunt raise and for which two charities?

- What did Preston have to say about "The Last of Us" on HBO, "Lockwood & Company" on Netflix, and "Wednesday" also on Netflix?

- What did Todd have to say about the "Quantum Leap" revival on NBC, "Willow" season 1 on Disney+, "National Treasure: Edge of History" season 1 also on Disney+, and "Kaleidoscope" on Netflix? And, what extent did he have to go to not have this segment being mostly him rambling on for way too long?

- What did Andruw have to say about "The Office: Superfan" on Peacock?

- Which co-host is a fan of "The Simpsons" and "The Last Drive In With Joe Bob Briggs"?

- Were the Geeks looking forward to "Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania" at the time of this recording?

- What do the Geeks think about James Gunn's line up of DCU "reboot" movies & TV shows?

- Is Todd going to give modern Star Trek another try with "Star Trek: Picard" season 3?

- And, will Todd finish writing the summary of this episode before his laptop battery runs out while sitting in the Barnes & Noble cafe long after finishing his white chocolate mocha and breakfast croissant (that he ate as a late lunch)?

Listen now for the answers to these and other random questions (well, except for the Barnes & Noble cafe part) in this month's improvised & eclectic Whatcha' Doin'? episode.
