Episode 133 - The Legacy of Warcraft

November 8, 2019

Today we take one of our rare deep dives into a nerdy topic. This time: Warcraft! We talk about the long running video game series, from its humble beginnings as Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, to the mammoth World of Warcraft, books, movies and Hearthstone.

We’ll also cover the recent announcements from Blizzcon 2019 about Diablo 4, Overwatch 2 and the new World of Warcraft expansion. Plus a major announcement from Disney about the future of Star Wars!

We’ll also have a ridiculous round of Would You Rather, some Radical Recommends, and Trailer Reviews of Charlie’s Angels, 3022, The Grudge, and The Invisible Man.

Intro music provided with permission by the awesome Jimmy Hinson of Big Giant Circles. Find him Bandcamp or iTunes!

We hope you’re as excited as we are to see the MCU’s upcoming Captain Marvel !!! Coming out this Friday, March 8th in theaters everywhere! So, for this episode, we take you through the history of the character, and the name “Captain Marvel” itself.

Episode 109 - Aquaman "Deep Dive"

December 13, 2018

Join Jarman and Steve for a “deep dive” (huhhuh….get it?) into DC Comics’ Aquaman! Before you see the new film, learn about his humble beginnings before 1942, and how the nerdy, clean cut, smiling blond dude becomes the monster man behemoth we see today.

Keeping with the subject of talking to fish, Steve regales us with some fish facts and trivia. Some weird and wild stuff out there in the oceans…

Your co-hosts go into some serious Dungeons and Dragons talk, before discussing some Nerdy News of the upcoming Dune film, why Netflix really dropped all the Defenders series, and how women are taking Hollywood by storm!

Then we have Radical Recommends, and Trailer Reviews of Avengers: Endgame and Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
