80's Star of "Teen Witch" & "Karate Kid Part 3" Robyn Lively is our guest. She talks about her new movie "Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters" on Pure Flix. We also discuss the Cult status of "Teen Witch" and the unforgettable rap "Top That"....she even raps some of it for us.
In Top Nerd News we discuss some of the San Diego Comic Con news that we didn't get to talk about last week. We start with the Game of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon starring Frankenstein....err I mean... Matt Smith. Will this show capture audiences like its predecessor was able to do? Then we take a look at the Lord of the Rings prequel, The Rings of Power. Will the overly critical Tolkien fans accept it, because they REALLY dumped on the trailer. But it looks pretty epic, with bearded women, sexy trees, and Eminem. We also talk about the new Sylvester Stallone movie "Samaritan" as well as the passing of Star Trek icon Nichelle Nichols.
Skungy's Pick of the Week is a cute little Cat Game called "Stray" Be a cat. Bounce all nimbly bimbly from saucers of milk, and rub up on robot peoples legs.
All that and more on The Week in Geek with D Squared. Sunday nights at 7pm on WRNO.com and the Free iHeart Radio App. If you want to be on the show or just leave a comment, go to Newstalk 99.5 WRNO or The Week in Geek on the iHeart Radio App and Click the Red Microphone Button to leave a 30 second message!
