Three Fools take to the air to tell you how to profit from the rising influence of geek culture.

Amongst a slew of announcements at last week's Worldwide Developers Conference, what were the most important for Apple (AAPL 0.35%) investors?

Then, we review the catalytic potential of Nintendo's (NTDOY -0.33%) Mario Kart 8 and explain why Netflix (NFLX 3.68%) agreed to make a third season of Orange Is the New Black in the days before the Season 2 premiere.

Finally, we look at the challenges Walt Disney's (DIS 1.72%) Marvel Studios will have to overcome in naming Scott Derrickson to make a Doctor Strange movie. Will not having a monthly comic book to support the project result in lower box-office grosses?
