    The Raygun’s Olympic Disaster, The Runner & Mayday Movie Reviews, Dinosaurs vs. Humans?! Episode

    Another fun-filled episode of Nerds Talking! The boys are back with another packed episode featuring entertainment news, movie reviews, laughs, debates, and—of course—a conversation that completely goes off the rails! We kick things off with your weekly dose of the latest entertainment news, catching up on what's happening across Hollywood, streaming, movies, and pop culture. Then it's time to dive into Netflix's Untold: Breaking Badly, the documentary exploring the bizarre and unforgettable Olympic journey of Australian breakdancer Raygun (Rachael Gunn). We break down the controversy, the viral moments, the criticism, and the cultural phenomenon surrounding one of the most talked-about Olympic performances in recent memory. Next up, we head over to Amazon MGM for a review of The Runner, the action-thriller starring Gal Gadot. We take a look at the story, performances, action, and whether this latest streaming offering is worth adding to your watchlist. Starring: Gal Gadot and an ensemble cast. And we're not done yet! Our final movie review of the week takes us to Apple TV+ for Mayday, the latest film offering from Apple. We break down the story, cast, performances, pacing, and overall entertainment value to determine whether Mayday is a must-watch or one you can safely skip. Because this is Nerds Talking, you know we can't possibly end the show normally. The conversation takes a hard left turn when the boys tackle one of humanity's most important questions: Who came first… dinosaurs or humans? Seems simple enough, right? Well… not when we decide to consult the Bible for answers. What follows is a hilarious deep dive into what the Bible actually says, what it doesn't say, and whether we've somehow been interpreting the whole thing wrong this entire time. Dinosaurs, humans, creation, ancient history, and biblical interpretations collide in one of the most ridiculous—and entertaining—discussions we've had. It's the kind of conversation that starts with a legitimate question and ends somewhere nobody expected. So grab your headphones, settle in, and get ready for another unpredictable ride with the Nerds Talking crew!

    The Coyote vs. Acme Review, Rotten Tomatoes, and Carlos Discovers What Students Were REALLY Saying Episode.

    Another fun-filled episode of Nerds Talking is here, and this time the boys are bringing you entertainment news, laughs, nostalgia, and one very unexpected language lesson! We kick things off with the latest entertainment news, before diving into our review of Coyote vs. Acme, the long-awaited Looney Tunes live-action/animation comedy starring Will Forte, John Cena, Lana Condor, Tone Bell, P.J. Byrne, Martha Kelly, and Luis Guzmán, with legendary Looney Tunes voices including Eric Bauza. But here's the big question: Is Coyote vs. Acme REALLY as good as Rotten Tomatoes says it is, or is everyone just trolling Warner Bros. for shelving the movie before it eventually found a new home? With Rotten Tomatoes currently giving the movie a 96% Tomatometer score and a 95% audience score, the stakes are high! The Nerds have watched it, we've got opinions, and we're ready to tell you whether this Wile E. Coyote comeback is worth your time—or whether ACME should have left this one in the warehouse! And then things take a hilarious and VERY unexpected turn when Carlos discovers something about the students at his middle school. He always thought they were simply saying hello to him in their native tongue… but what if they weren't saying hello at all?! 😳 What Carlos thought he was hearing—and what they may have actually been saying—leads to one of those stories that only happens on Nerds Talking! So grab your headphones and join Lafayette, Carlos, and the crew for another hilarious episode packed with entertainment news, movie reviews, childhood memories, pop-culture nostalgia, unexpected revelations, and plenty of nerdy insight. Was Coyote vs. Acme worth saving? Is Rotten Tomatoes right? What were those students REALLY saying to Carlos? Tune in and find out! Don't miss another episode of Nerds Talking—where pop culture, comedy, movies, games, and absolutely ridiculous conversations collide! 🎙️ Listen, laugh, and nerd out with us!

    The DC Cancellations, WNBA Controversy & Two Big Movie Reviews Episode

    Another fun-filled episode of Nerds Talking is here! Lafayette and Carlos are back with another jam-packed conversation covering the latest headlines in movies, television, sports, streaming, and all things nerdy. First up, the guys dive into the ever-changing world of DC Studios and James Gunn's new DC Universe. With several projects from the original DCU Chapter One slate being reworked, delayed, or pushed to the back burner, what does it mean for the future of the franchise? We discuss the latest developments surrounding projects including Waller and Paradise Lost, both of which have recently been deprioritized at HBO, while The Authority has also been scrapped and Booster Gold has undergone a major creative shake-up. Then it's time for your weekly entertainment news, where Lafayette and Carlos break down the biggest stories making waves across Hollywood and pop culture—with plenty of opinions, jokes, and the kind of nerdy commentary you've come to expect from Nerds Talking. The WNBA Has Entered the Chat! The WNBA is suddenly dealing with a very unusual controversy surrounding the definition of who is eligible to play in the league. Former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White have both announced plans to declare for the 2027 WNBA Draft, saying they identify as women and arguing that the league's current eligibility language leaves the door open for their participation. The WNBA has since pushed back, saying there are currently no immediate eligibility issues and condemning what it describes as bad-faith efforts to exploit the issue. Lafayette and Carlos discuss the controversy, the WNBA's current rules, and the questions this bizarre situation raises about professional sports, eligibility, identity, and where the league goes from here. Movie Reviews! The guys also sit down to review The Invite, the new comedy-drama starring Seth Rogen, Olivia Wilde, Penélope Cruz, and Edward Norton. When Joe and Angela invite their mysterious upstairs neighbors over for dinner, what begins as an attempt to reconnect their marriage quickly turns into a night full of unexpected twists, awkward moments, and escalating tension. And then it's time to head to Netflix for a little sci-fi nightmare fuel with The Last House. Directed by Louis Leterrier, the film stars Greta Lee, Wagner Moura, Riley Chung, Emma Ho, Noah Alexander Sosnowski, and Gabriel Barbosa. The story follows a family mysteriously sealed inside their own home, forced to survive with dwindling resources while trying to understand the ominous force keeping them trapped. Did The Invite deliver the laughs and drama? Does The Last House live up to its intriguing sci-fi premise? Lafayette and Carlos give you their completely honest—and occasionally questionable—opinions! So grab your headphones, settle in, and join the Nerds Talking crew for another episode filled with laughs, memories, movie reviews, entertainment news, sports controversy, and plenty of nerdy insights.
