October 18, 2021 Revisited: DB Cooper with Alex Traynor
What's up, nerds? As we get closer to Halloween (and a certain someone's WEDDING,) we are trying to bring you spooky episodes. This week, take a listen at our first dive into true crime with our episode on the D.B. Cooper conspiracy. This episode features comedian, Alex Traynor, and our friend Kaitlyn joins in the fun. It's a great dive into all things D.B. Cooper, and then we steal a boat.
New episode next week!

October 11, 2021 E22: Star Wars: The Clone Wars
We've got a good feeling about this week's episode, folks. That's right, we're talking Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) with long-time fan and definite-future-podcast-returnee Brigit! We'll go over everything from how the animated series delves deeper into the fall of Anakin to the dark side, how the series expanded on the (often-maligned) political discussions within the Star Wars Universe, and even dive into the extended universe aspects of Mandalorian culture (hey, Disney, are you listening? Our email is open.)

Then, we'll give Brigit some Star Wars-specific scenarios to make decisions on - she'll truly need to help us, as she's our only hope. All that and more on this week's What's Up, Nerds?

October 11, 2021 E21: The Art of Magic and MAGIC (1978) with Joe Diamond
On this week's episode, we cover all things magic, and make a little bit of our own (podcasting) magic along the way. Magician Joe Diamond joins us to discuss his career as a performer, review the 1978 Anthony Hopkins film "Magic", then show us an illusion of his own - one you can play along with us! There's no misdirection here, folks, Joe's the real deal - all that and more on this week's What's Up, Nerds?

If you’d like to pick up the second controller, we'd definitely suggest watching Magic (1978), but at a minimum have a deck of cards handy so you can try Joe's trick for yourself. It'll really impress when it works for you too.
