After a week of preemptions due to the NBA Pelicans game broadcasts, we're back on the air. In Top Nerd News we discuss "The Last of Us" trailer for the TV series on HBO. We also recast the "Naked Gun" after news of Liam Neeson is in talks for a reboot of the movie franchise. Later we get an update on NASA's DART mission for asteroid detection and demolition.
Skungy's Pick of the Week is "Everdell" which is...and I quote, "a charming worker placement board game." We also get an update on the "Zombiecide" board game which is adding an Iron Maiden expansion.
The "Bad Wolf Nerd Lair" Owner Alicia Dardar joins us to talk about her battle with the local Thieves Guild, and how we can help out our local nerdy small business. The Bad Wolf has been a geek community staple since 2014, go to their website https://thatbadwolf.com/ to see their menu and event calendar.
We close the show with "She-Hulk" Finale spoilers. We also meet Hulk's son....which now makes the Young Avengers roster fully complete. Phase 5 for Marvel will most likely include all the characters from several Disney+ shows and movies.
