We also discuss movie trailers and movie promotions and if studios put too much information out there for big tent pole movies like The Avengers as well as some of our worst experiences in a theater due to disrespectful jack-holes. It’s a lot of info plus CT’s return from his spirit walk.

Nerd Lunch Episode 32: Nerd Heritage

Posted in movies, podcast, pop culture with tags movies, Nerd Lunch Podcast, podcast, podcasts, pop culture on April 10, 2012 by Paxton

We had a completely different show all ready to go this week, but the guest had to bow out at the last minute, so our friend Fitz fills in last second to help us out. The topic? Nerd Heritage.

Within the walls of this podcast we all discuss how we became nerds. We also talk about how we want to pass on our nerd legacies to our children (by ignoring wifely protests). It’s a fun topic that was sort of “gently inspired” by a topic the Atomic Geeks did for their episode 148 called Geek Dads.

Nerd Lunch Episode 31: Nerdy Lunchy Bucket List

Episode 31 is live and ready to be shot into your ear on a rocket sled. In this episode Jeeg, CT and I do a “3 way dance”, ie we fly without a fourth chair and just talk amongst the three of us. Our subject? Life, man. We just sit and talk about life, love and just being alive, my friend.

Just kidding, this isn’t an Oprah podcast. This week we are talking about our own personal Nerd Bucket Lists. You know, the list of things I’d like to do before I die in a hail of gunfire and lightsaber blades.

Actually, CT has deemed it Nerdy Lunchy Buckety List, or something like that. We list things we’d like to do, places we’d like to eat and places we’d like to go before we kick the bucket. We even discuss a few bucket list items we’d like to do before we retire from podcasting in like 50-60 years (trust me, you’ll be stuck with the Nerd Lunch Podcast for a while).

So download this episode and start thinking about your own demise. It’s fun.
