In Nerdy News this week we tackle bear home invasions, captured cyrptoids, insect brain food, and our veggie-eating ancestors. 

Then we break out the new hilarious segment, Opposite Opposition, where Steve throws out random words that don't have a clear opposite, and Jarman has to think of something equally random that can serve as its opposite. The results are ridiculous.

For our main segment, it's Preternatural Penetration time once again, where Jarman presents a famous case from the history of paranormal events, and Steve plays Scully and pokes holes in the details. In this edition, we cover the famous Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot Video, which can be seen here: http://youtu.be/MKUwdHex1Zs

Then join us for Hypothetical Hubbub once again, where Steve is presented extreme hypothetical situations and must think of some way in which he would react to them. You won't want to miss it this week, as Shaquille O'Neal and moon fighting is involved...

For Trailer Reviews this week, we cover the cheesy Ragnarok, the new longer Rise of the Planet of the Apes trailer, and the new Brad Pitt tank war drama, Fury.

Nerdy News bursts right out of the gate with Steve pointing out some unique DNA finds in chimp mutations over generations, and Jarman finds out that we now  know what Venus smells like! How Useful!

From there we introduce a new member to the A Play On Nerds family, Patrick! He will be out 'Video Game Expert' from here on out, with his new monthly half-hour podcast, Gaming On A Rupee! He'll be reviewing games you can find for free or very cheap, from your small independent games to your big budget micro transaction games. Let him be your guide to the Steam marketplace so you don't spend your time or money on some serious duds. 

Steve. Jarman and Patrick then reminisce about games of the past, from Atari all the way up to the current gen consoles, as well as old time PC games. Be nostalgic with us as we explore the universe of Video Games Through Time!

We close the show with our weekly Trailer Reviews. This week, Dumb and Dumber To, the weird and possibly wonderful Birdman, and Sin City 2 take the focus.

Episode 13 - Gremlins 2 VS Critters 2!!

Gremlins and Critters bash again in Copy Cat Cinema, big sharks eaten by bigger sharks, and selfies are bad for you!

Fuzzy creatures that will eat your face have never been so funny before. What a weird concept.

After Steve finishes bragging about his lovely week, (lucky guy) we delve into some Nerdy News, involving cannibalistic sharks and an injured Han Solo. On no! We have a new add on to Nerdy News called Bogus Stories, where we give 3 news stories, but one of them is total BS. You'll be surprised which ones are actually true... We live in a strange world.

Next we jump head first into our Copy Cat Cinema, Critters 2 VS Gremlins 2!! We discuss which film featuring furry creatures killing folks is the better film gem. Since Steve is such an expert on Gremlins, you'll want to listen in to some of the weird trivia and behind the scenes knowledge he brings to this episode.

For trailer reviews of the week, we feature Aftermath, The Congress, and The Rage with Nicolas Cage! Some real doozeys this week.

Episode 12 - BuffyPalooza!

Huge Buffy The Vampire Discussion, Space is Very Old and Jared Leto Sucks!

Just look at them. Aren't they nerdtacularly adorable? Oh the 90s.

We start of with some Nerdy News of the cosmic kind, along with some confirmed and not-so-confirmed Marvel movie casting news. Listen to find out! 

Then Jarman hits Steve with some Hypothetical Hubub, where he throws some crazy hypothetical situations at Steve and he has to think on his feet as to how he would react to them. (Courtesy of author Chuck Klosterman and his "Hypertheticals")

Then on to the big feature, where we talk about our love of Buffy the Vampire Slayer! We discuss some of the series highs and lows, talking about the very first episode, Steve's favorite episode "The Wish" and Jarman's favorite, the infamous musical episode Once More With Feeling. We both love Buffy, and this short amount of time barely scratches the surface of all there is to talk about for it, but we give it our best shot. Surely we'll discuss Buffy more in the future, along with the Angel spinoff!

Steve then presents Jarman with a very special edition of Brooklyn Band or Smut Search? where we have to decide if the name he gives us is the search someone actually made on PornMD.com or if it is actually a Brooklyn band name. He throws in a little funny twist to make things more interesting for this go around. 

Finally, in Trailer Reviews this week, we cover Christopher Nolan's upcoming Interstellar and Disney Animation's Big Hero 6. It's an overstuffed episode!

Before we delve into our non-spoiler and spoiler review for X-Men Days of Future Past, we dish some nerdy news, including a comet that will not hit earth, because it doesn't exist, the passing of the lovely Maya Angelou, and the casting of a new Daredevil. 

We also bring back another edition of Name That Power, where we find the strangest, dopiest, most rare, and derpiest Marvel heroes and villains, and one of us has to guess what powers they may have, simply by name alone. 

This week's trailer reviews: Snowpiercer, I'll Follow You Down, and the newly released Edge of Tomorrow trailer.
