About

Five years after the start of Smallville, 3 college friends decided fan sites weren’t enough, and that fun needed to be taken to the next level. After the season five finale, “Vessel”, Tucker Colburn and Derek Russell launched MSU’s House of El, a weekly half-hour radio show devoted to Smallville. After almost 3 years, over 100 episodes, and five hosts later, Starkville’s House of El (SHoE) remains the number one Smallville and Superman related podcast on the Internet.

Steve Glosson resides in a small town in Southern Georgia USA. He’s been a geek his whole life. “It started with Star Wars and grew from there.” says Steve of his geekdom. Steve is the founder and primary contributor to Geek Out Online, and the host of Geek Out Loud: The Official Podcast of Geek Out Online. Whether it’s bad impressions or poking fun at himself, fun is the key and Steve tries to bring a little bit in all he does. Steve joined SHoE in November of 2007.
