Buckle up for a wild ride—fictional vehicles included—in this episode of Wise_N_Nerdy! Joe is joined by the dynamic duo of Sarah Rose and Shannon for a jam-packed show that blends imagination, wisdom, and heartwarming nostalgia.

The journey begins with the Question of the Week: "If you could have any fictional vehicle for your daily commute, what would it be?" From the time-traveling TARDIS to the flying Magic Carpet from Aladdin, and even Herbie the Love Bug, the hosts dive into the whimsical possibilities of upgrading your daily drive.

With the roll of the dice, we leap into the "How Do I...?" segment, where our hosts break down how to choose the right pet for your lifestyle. Whether you're a couch potato or an adventurer, there's a furry friend for you—and the trio shares what to consider before bringing home a new companion.

Then, it's time for some groan-worthy fun with a Bad Dad Joke—this one’s going to the dogs, literally, with a pup suffering from a "fever." (You’ve been warned.)

Next, the dice deliver the "What Are You Nerding Out About?" segment, where passions take the spotlight. Sarah beams about the Tony Awards and the brilliance of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Shannon unleashes her love for all things horror, especially the mind-bending work of David Lynch. Joe joins in with a sweet story of introducing his kids to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, followed by a thoughtful dive into the political layers of Elantris by Brandon Sanderson.

The nerdy dice strike again, sending us into the "Parliament of Papas" segment. This week’s parenting dilemma comes from Reddit: A party guest leaves after a dog jumps on him and the host refuses to restrain it. The crew debates pet boundaries, respect, and how to handle awkward social situations— skills required.

Finally, things wrap up with "Daddy, Tell Me A Story", where everyone shares beloved pet memories, and Joe pulls out the big guns: tales of growing up with a real-life pet bobcat! The trio also dreams about which fictional pets they'd love to have—think Hedwig, Toothless, and more.

Whether you're a pet lover, a fantasy fanatic, or just in need of a laugh, this episode is a feel-good rollercoaster that proves once again: it’s good to Find your FAMdom.
