5.12: Rabbit Holes Everywhere 01/11/2022

5.12: Rabbit Holes Everywhere As 2021 comes to a close, feels like everything is coming out of the woodwork. The most anticipated movie of the year and the least anticipated show of the year show up close by and get reviewed by us! /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/21738347

5.11: Deviants On Parade 01/04/2022

5.11: Deviants On Parade Things are still very 'hell in a handbasket' in the world, but hey, in a world where Chris Pratt is the voice of both Garfield and Mario - anything is possible. In this episode, we lament the choices that led to AstroWorld and the Alec Baldwin shooting. We also review (and later spoil) Marvel's Eternals and FX's Y The Last Man. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/21673820

5.10: Dipped In Chalamet 01/03/2022

5.10: Dipped In Chalamet What's goodie!?!? This go-round we review Warner Brother's new Dune movie starring Willy Wonka and MJ alongside a recap of Marvel's fun cinematic universe loophole-a-thon, What If...? /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/21665927

5.9: Oh, Indeed 11/16/2021

5.9: Oh, Indeed For better or for worse, we vaxxed and we outsiiiiddddeee!! All this to say, we went to the movies as a squad again for the first time in a long time to see Marvel's Shang-Chi. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/21177239

5.8: Return of Plinko 11/01/2021

5.8: Return of Plinko Running it back to make sure y'all get these takes! We dive into the unknown of Disney+'s What If...? and see what's popping with DC's new Suicide Squad. We may or may not have access to a leaked photograph of some upcoming Marvel project, but you've got to listen to find out. This and more Bronx-based knavery on Season 5, episode 8 of 2Nerds and an Actor. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/21014750

5.7: Doot-Doot Doot Doot 09/07/2021

5.7: Doot-Doot Doot Doot We're at this point again where we have to ask what year this is. For real, we did a double-take reading our agenda and realizing the nostalgia train is running OD as we reviewed Space Jam: Legacy and Masters of the Universe: Revelations. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/20395709

5.6: Nexus Event 09/01/2021

5.6: Nexus Event What's good y'all?!? We're talking up the Loki finale and the Black Widow movie because Marvel's Phase Four is kinda dominating the streaming wars. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/20337032

5.5: The Callbacks 08/10/2021

5.5: The Callbacks Coming to you live from what looks like the end of the world, it's...Us! Yeah, Netflix's Sweet Tooth hit a little too close to home, but we watched and reviewed it. Of course, we had to make sure we saw Fast 9, by hook or by crook. It confirmed our earlier suspicions that it could become the most franchise-able series ever. That, some Snow White and Willy Wonka casting rumors, and a few cool trailers on Season 5 episode 5 of 2Nerds and an Actor. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/20089181

5.4: Meek Mill Wept 07/23/2021

5.4: Meek Mill Wept We dive into HBO Max's In The Heights, or better said, the place where the Heights is said to have been. There were discrepancies. No double parking? No dirt bikes 'ming ming-ing'? No dembow blasting? Also, we chop it up about the first two episodes of Disney+'s Loki. We know we have no idea what is happening or what is going to happen, but listen to our guesses! This and more on Season 5, episode 4 of 2Nerds and an Actor. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/19903883

5.3: The Crossover 07/11/2021

5.3: The Crossover Next up on the saga of catching up to 2021 content is Netflix's second season of Love+Death+Robots and the Disney+ reimagining of Cruella. Watching both made us wonder what the reasoning was for the Disney villain flicks and whether L+D+R lived up to the anticipation. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/19774055

5.2: Most Dangerous Woman Alive 06/24/2021

5.2: Most Dangerous Woman Alive 2N1A FINALLY saw the Snyder Cut of Justice League and it's kind of like we did y'all a favor by waiting. Aisha goes off about Lois Lane, and there were no lies detected. We reflected on the work of Paul Mooney and imagined what he would say about the race issues with the Golden Globes. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/19597907

5.1: Kold Open 06/08/2021

5.1: Kold Open It's been a long time, shouldn't have left you, without a podcast to geek to. So, after our pandemic hiatus, we realized we were gonna have to recap the last few months. This one's a doozy, but we had to hop the turnstile to get on the hype train for the Feige/Marvel announcements. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/19395092

4.20: The Confirmation of BuckWild 01/13/2021

4.20: The Confirmation of BuckWild 2Nerds and an Actor had to bring it back come rewind for December's Disney Investor Day announcements. Real talk, those reveals lifted the morals of nerdy content consumers the world over. Disney came out swinging for '99 and the 2000s, with enough material to spark imaginations the next decade. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/17528006

4.19: Hairography For What 01/05/2021

4.19: Hairography For What As a hellish year comes to a close we are gifted, in kind, with DC's Wonder Woman 1984 and Pixar's Soul. We reviewed them and had to consider whether these releases were entirely on-brand for 2020 or not. Spoiler alert, they were. This and a little more on this episode of 2Nerds and an Actor. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/17425874

4.18: Aww, What? 11/30/2020

4.18: Aww, What? The fate of Deadpool 3 rests in the hands of some great writers (who are also women!). We talk Mandalorian egg eating fiascos and review Netflix's Over The Moon on this episode of 2Nerds and an Actor. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/17007104

4.17: Comedians Getting Jacked 11/04/2020

4.17: Comedians Getting Jacked While holding our breath through what feels like Election Month, we checked out Borat: Subsequent Moviefilm and the final episodes of Lovecraft Country. Gal Gadot and Patty Jenkins are doing a Cleopatra movie, and Oscar Issac is in talks to join the MCU as Moon Knight. Meanwhile, the Demon Slayer OVA breaks box office records in Japanese theaters. Remember those? Movie theaters? This and more Bronx-based hot takes than you can shake a bacon, egg, and cheese at on 2Nerds and an Actor. Also, vote. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/16687382

4.16: Everybody Loves Yahya 10/25/2020

4.16: Everybody Loves Yahya This episode of 2Nerds and an Actor, we discussed the shrinking landscape of TV & film. We really have to wonder if the movie theater industry will survive this pandemic. If theaters were waiting for 'Tenet' and James Bond to revive the movies, that ain't it. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/16538447

4.15: Net Ten 10/01/2020

4.15: Net Ten So, we went to the movies. There was a lot of back and forth, tickets bought then canceled. Eventually, we did it. Socially distanced (we were the only three in the theater), hand sanitizers on tap, and decked out in PPE. All to see Tenet... For you. Kidding! But we did see it and we reviewed it...For you. Marvel Studios announced a new slate of projects. The Snyder cut of Justice League are actually reshoots, The Mandalorian season 2 trailer has us hyped, and the Emmy's were hella different this year. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/16240949

4.14: ShoutOut-Ish 09/14/2020

4.14: ShoutOut-Ish Marty McFly would be confused AF if he showed up here and now. This episode, we review the first few episodes of Amazon Prime's The Boys Season 2 and the controversial live-action Mulan on Disney+. On top of ALL that is a resurgence of several properties from yesteryear. The Golden Girls is on Zoom, The Batman is on hiatus, and the DUNE trailer is kind of amazing. Add the Bladerunner theme over some drone footage of a fiery California and you can see why we need to ask exactly what year this is. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/16010441

4.13: Blaxphemous Prime 09/03/2020

4.13: Blaxphemous Prime Took a break because the world is on fire. We back. This episode of 2Nerds and an Actor, we celebrate the life and work of Chadwick Boseman. Once we’re done crying, we give our No Spoilers then 'Spoilae' reviews of Netflix's Project Power and HBO's Lovecraft Country. Plus thoughts on the New Mutants release and Mulan! /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/15867683

4.12: El Manuel 08/06/2020

4.12: El Manuel We review Doom Patrol Season 1 (HBOmax) because, quarantine and Hamilton (Disney+) because, hype train. Korra’s coming to Netflix and those Emmy noms look #BlackAF. We watched hella trailers...for movies going straight to streaming! #2N1A /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/15515240

4.12: Symbol Unrest 07/23/2020

4.12: Symbol Unrest Season 4, Episode 11: After a moment to reflect on Naya Rivera's passing we dish out the hot-ish takes on the new Storm casting rumors, Nick Cannon wilding out, the shadiness of the CW's new (Black) Batwoman, Fast & Furious going to space, and a review of Netflix’s Warrior Nun & The Old Guard. /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/15323798

"A Tale of 2 Jokers" 04/23/2020

"A Tale of 2 Jokers" Mike and Aisha break down the nuances of two iconic portrayals of everyone's favorite Clown Prince of Crime, The Joker. Well, Aisha does more of the breaking down and Mike gets to kinda be the host. It's madness! Also, it's a lot of fun :) Check it out and give us a like, share and a comment! /episode/index/show/2nerdsandanactor/id/14441369
