8: General Grievances
22/03/2018 Duración: 01h04minWe get all Star Wars-y in this episode as Shameful Gap is back with a, erm, bang! Peter had never seen 'Revenge of the Sith' so sit back and listen as we discuss that film and the wider Star Wars universe (plus we get ourselves into an entertaining discussion on the worst CGI in movies). Before all that though is our Film Buff or Film Bluff quiz, which covers everything from Jaws, Top Gun, Alien and the musical Hamilton! We hope you enjoy listening to this podcast as much as we did making it :)

7: Wakanda Forever!
03/03/2018 Duración: 01h04minStraight out of the cinema and into the pod booth! The team give their thoughts on Marvel's latest: "Black Panther". Our Film Buff Or Film Bluff quiz is back, taking us into discussions on Pixar, swearing in movies, the Batmobile and Chevy Chase. It's also the return of Shameful Gap as Dan watches "Evil Dead 2" for the very first time (and takes us into a discussion on our favourite horror movies). And finally, in Taking One For The Team' we have the misfortune of watching "The Cloverfield Paradox". Hear our thoughts on what must be surely the most disappointing film in recent history.

6: Someone's Going to Nerd Jail
09/02/2018 Duración: 51minThis episode we debut our brand new feature: Nerd Court. This is where we take a hotly-debated topic, two of our nerds act as the defence and prosecution, and a nerd judge and jury decide its verdict. In the stocks this time is the TV show "Lost", defended by Dan, and prosecuted by Ian. Also this week we have lots of new recommendations for you, including reviews of "The Shape of Water" and "The Post". And we have another new feature called Taking One For The Team (snigger) - this is where we take a critically-panned movie, dig deep, and give it a watch. This week (after avoiding it for so long) we finally succumb to watching "Justice League". How did we find it? Umm.....

5: Pop Chip Hotshot!
24/01/2018 Duración: 58minIn this episode we have lots of nerdy recommendations from stuff we've seen recently (we mention a few spoilers for "The Last Jedi"). There is also a 'Harry Potter-off' (that sounds dirty, doesn't it?) between two of our biggest Potter nerds which involves a mini Trivial Pursuit challenge. We get slightly distracted by some Star Wars themed Pop Chips, hence the episode title, before concluding with an epic 'Film Buff or Film Bluff' quiz. Enjoy, Please get involved in our nerdy discussions on Twitter @NerdfestUK P.S. we recorded this a few days before the Oscar nominations came out!

17/01/2018 Duración: 01h04minThis episode brings back 'Shameful Gap', as Jon gives us his opinion of "Die Hard 2" upon watching it for the very first time (not one for the kids this...). Our Film Buff Or Film Bluff Quiz takes us into the world of James Cameron, Jason Donovan (yes really) and tortoises getting jiggy. Plus, we talk about the Dr Who Christmas Special, and Ian Mayor gives a great review of new Netflix TV show, "The Punisher".
