Lots of fun movie menu choices including movies like The Goonies and Karate Kid Part II as well as restaurants like McDonalds and Outback Steakhouse.  So download this episode, sit back and let us take you on a trip for both your ear holes AND your mouth holes.  Trust me, you’re mouth will be watering by the end.

Nerd Lunch Episode 161 – Expendables of Other Genres 3

Posted in movies, podcast, pop culture with tags , , on December 30, 2014 by Paxton

Nerd Lunch Podcast

This is the last episode of Nerd Lunch for 2014. So enjoy this, bitches. We have no guest, it’s a three way dance in which CT, Jeeg and I discuss teacher movies.

Teachers

More specifically, we form a super team of actors who have portrayed teachers in movies. Expect typical mentions of stuff like Stand & Deliver, Dangerous Minds and a few other surprises.

After we milk the teacher movie genre for every last drop of awesome, we then turn our gazes towards forming a team of actors that have portrayed sports players. Of course Kevin Costner gets mentioned but listen in to see who else we pull out of our asses to add to our super team of sports players.
