The Goldnerds Podcast 2.0 thegoldnerds@gmail.com (Joe Goldnerds)

In our first live podcast of 2021, Shai and Lanz talk about this week's Goldbergs ep - Cocoon - a real tearjerker. We also ask the audience to rank their favorite Pops-focused episodes. George Segal is a national treasure! Thanks to all of the Goldnerds who came out for the live show! 

The wonderful, marvelous, and terrific Brea Bee joined Lanz and Shai hot off her appearance on the Goldbergs S8E5 "Dee-Vorced" where she crushed playing her very own real-life mother. We talked everything from growing up in the Goldverse to her incredible experience playing "Nikki" in Silver Linings Playbook. Listen to the episode and we're sure you'll agree with us and the audience that WE WANT MORE VICKY BEE! Recorded live on 11/21/20. 

The marvelous and talented Hayley Orrantia joined Lanz, Shai, and all of the Goldnerds for a live interactive chat. Hayley was awesome and talked about everything from the stories behind her original music to of course, all sort of great Goldbergs behind-the-scenes scoop. A huge special thanks to Melody Orrantia, Hayley's mom, for joining chat in our season 8 premiere episode and then helping us invite Hayley. We love you Melody! (Recorded on 11/4). 

Recorded live after the season 8 premiere, Airplane homage. Tune in as Lanz and Shai break down the episodes and play some fun interactive games with the Goldnerds. 

We round out the year dealing with the sad news of Schooled's cancelation, but we also celebrate all that we love about the Goldverse. We talk about our favorite arcs from the Goldbergs and Schooled this year, and debate the best 'lution among the characters. We also name our personal MVPs for the year. It might be time to "have a summer," but please send us your ideas for episodes over the break and we'll keep eps of the pod coming! 

We catch up on the latest episodes of the Goldbergs and Schooled, including Island Time and Schmoopie's Big Adventure. We also get a surprise call-in from the OG Goldnerd himself -- Joe!
