Jenn Sterger is one of my coolest Cool Friends, and I'm so grateful she joined me for this episode. Jenn is a, well, Jenn of All Trades, so to speak. She's a comedian, actress, journalist, podcaster, cat rescuer, model, and so much more. She's found herself in the center of many different forms of public attention, and boy do we talk about a lot of them.

Honestly, I could spend all day writing up all the reasons that I adore Jenn, but I think when you listen to the episode, you'll understand why. So please enjoy, follow @jennifersterger on the socials, check out her Brand Army account with comedy and really rad photos, and hot damn is this Patreon-Exclusive Bonus Content both unbelievable and INCREDIBLY accidentally prescient towards certain news that broke in the 12 or so hours between recording and publication?

Join mega nerds Dre Alvarez and Jeff May as they geek out on a different nerdy cultural touchstone every month. Part reminiscence, part historical deep dive. This month, Dre and Jeff begin their season on Movies Dre Should've Seen by Now with the 1986 sci-fi action classic Aliens. Yes, you read that right: Dre hasn't seen Aliens!

There's a lot to unpack about the sequel that created a franchise, so let's get our certified powerloader license, get on the express elevator to hell, and take off and nuke the site from orbit, as we tackle one of the most iconic sci-fi classics in cinema history that, against all odds, Dre hadn't seen until now.

Folks, my Cool Friend this episode is the incredibly talented Eric Howk, musician, photographer, entrepreneur, and all around GGTK. You might know him as the guitarist for Portugal. the Man, or as an active face of the accessibility awareness movement, or just as my latest guest, but he sure is fantastic. We talk about his incredible new album SKYKING (and the tragic history of that title), retro video games, touring, horses, and so much more. I've known Eric for almost a decade, and the times we've shared have been incredibly efficient, as every moment we've spent together has produced such incredible memories.

So listen up and enjoy, follow Eric on the socials (@eric_howk), and listen to SKYKING asap! And please head over to Patreon.com/jeffmay for early access to uncensored episodes and Patreon-exclusive content we recorded JUST FOR PATRONS!

I finally got to sit down with my incredibly Cool Friend Joe Corroney, and I'm so friggin excited about it! Hey, you like Star Wars and an absolute ton of talent??? Well have I got the guy for you to meet in my good friend Joe. He's one of the most prolific and talented Star Wars artist on the planet, creating countless pieces for every facet of the Star Wars universe, and I think that's pretty cool. I mean, he's worked on a bunch of other incredible properties like Star Trek, Buffy, Dr. Who, X-Files, etc... I mean, if a company needs an artist to make photorealistic, yet incredibly stylized art, well, Mr. Corroney is your guy. We talk about a lot, so listen up and have fun, because this is a great "two dudes bro-ing out" kind of episode, and it was so fun to record.So enjoy the episode, check out joecorroney.com, follow Joe on the socials (@joecorroney) and head on over to patreon.com/jeffmay to enjoy the exclusive bonus content we recorded just for Patrons!

Folks, I’m so very excited to just get a minute to sit and talk with my Cool Friend Abe Epperson. You might know Abe from his former work at Cracked and his current work on the Small Beans network! He went to school for movies! That’s crazy, because I went to school, and I also like movies! We talk about movies. We talk about a lot of other stuff, too. Like how Abe may or may not have disliked me in the beginning (which, let’s be fair, I can relate to). As we address pretty early on, this is very much a “George hanging out with Elaine” scenario, with two people who never hang out alone ah…hanging out alone. And it’s great!

Honestly, this could’ve been a 12-hour podcast. We didn’t even know how long it went until I noticed the time, because it was so fun and effortless to talk to this fun, funny, brilliant, Cool Friend of mine. So listen up, and head on over to Patreon.com/jeff may to get early access to uncensored episodes, bonus shows, and Patreon-exclusive content we recorded on this episode JUST FOR PATRONS, and then go check out patreon.com/smallbeans for some of the coolest, funniest stuff on the Information Superhighway!

Join mega nerds Dre Alvarez and Jeff May as they geek out on a different nerdy cultural touchstone every month. Part reminiscence, part historical deep dive. This month, Dre and Jeff are joined by Upper Deck's resident DC Teen Hero expert (he even hosted an SDCC panel about them) T.J. Shevlin to celebrate Dre's birthday with a special stand-alone episode on his favorite character, Tim Drake (Robin III if you're nasty)!

There's a lot to unpack about the Bat Family's middle child, so let's all have an impressively long solo comic, finally get some pants on that kid, and hit people in the head with a metal stick, as we take a look at the oft-ignored, yet incredibly significant, sidekick of the DC Universe.

And, of course, don't forget to follow Dre (@nerdnumbers) Jeff (@heytherejeffro2 or @heytherejeffro) and T.J. (@strsmydestination) on the socials, and have a nerdy day!

My next Cool Friend is actually one of my first friends I ever made in LA! You might recognize Nick Wechsler from roles in iconic shows like Revenge, Roswell, It's Always Sunny, The Boys, and SO much more! You might ALSO recognize him from the recent hit indie sci-fi Vietnam war epic Primitive War, which has been killing it in despite it's limited release! We talk about all that stuff! And dodgeball!

For real though, Nick is incredible, and do yourselves a favor and check out Primitive War (and, obviously, all of his other amazing projects), go follow @I_AM_OFFICIALLY_NICK_WECHSLER on Instagram, and head on over to Patreon.com/jeffmay for early access to uncensored episodes with bonus content, exclusive shows, and more!

Part reminiscence, part historical deep dive. This month, Dre and Jeff finish their season on SPEED with the 70's sci-fi classic Logan's Run! (GET IT???)

There's a lot to unpack about this last bastion of vintage science fiction, so let's fly around in a giant bug zapper, order up some post-murder lovin', and watch an old man do an open-mic plagiarised bit about cats, as we take a look at the weird classic SciFi property Logan's Run.
