February 20, 2015 Episode 13: Beyond Thunderdome
In this episode of MC Hawking's Podcore Nerdcast, Ken, Len, and Cassie talk about superstition, Qatar's own Thunderdome, Tila Tequila, the first Thanksgiving, that time MC Frontalot corrected Len's grammar, and why there aren't many old harps. This episode has random spontaneous musical interludes! We play a game! And Ken provides another case to support his hypothesis: If your defining characteristic as a person is that you're staunchly anti-gay, then you're gay. Cassie brings the latest in Dinosaur News. Will it Suck: Fifty Shades of Grey.
Most importantly, we finally find out the diffference between a Tyrannosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
