About this episode
Christine Riccio & Natasha Polis talk all things nerdy in the book, tv, movie, pop culture, fandoms, and how they integrate into their adult lives.

They also talk about Olivia Rodrigo and her bf Louis Patridge who was just cast in Greta Gerwigs Chronicles of Narnia and Alex (Natasha's Twin Brother) hilariously corrects Natasha in post-editing about Rings of Power.
