The Evil Quizzes Master
Landlady of The Geekout Arms and the brains behind its devilishly evil quiz questions. Rach loves a glass of wine — sorry, correction: Rach loves a bottle of wine. Glasses are for amateurs. If you've ever been stumped on a Geekout Arms pub quiz, that smile you can picture is hers, wine in one hand, impossible question in the other.
The Geek
Resident geek: movies, retro games, toys, tech — if it's nerdy, Dan's got opinions. He'll tell you he's a Camden Hells man. Classy. Craft. Very discerning. Look a bit closer at the can, though, and it's Foster's. Every time. We won't tell if you don't.

YouTube & Instagram updates
Official links only. YouTube is the reliable live video feed; Instagram is for behind-the-scenes moments. No invented Facebook, TikTok or other networks.
YouTube — live video feed
Latest uploads power the grid above via their public channel RSS, with the uploads playlist embed as a no-code backup.
Instagram — @theweekendgeekout
Behind-the-scenes photos and extras. Instagram does not offer a free official profile feed without their API or a third-party widget, so we load their public profile card when Instagram’s embed script allows, and always link straight to the account.
If the embed is blank (common when Instagram blocks embeds or requires login), use the Follow button — the profile link always works.
