400 | Unfinished Business
After Lunch
To celebrate the 400th episode of After Lunch (give or take), Michael welcomes back the original Nerd Lunch crew - CT, Jeeg, and Pax - to wrap up some unfinished business from the Nerd Lunch days. In June 2019, Jeeg led the gang, including Michael in the Fourth Chair, in an Overs/Unders exercise to predict what might happen in the proposed Gambit movie starring Channing Tatum. Of course, we never got that movie. Or... we didn't until Deadpool & Wolverine came out last year. It's finally time to tally up the scores and see who is the Best Channing Tatum...
