#050: The Nice and Accurate Ramblings of Three Nerds Over a Book (w/ Cece)

General Nerdery Presents... — Mon, 14 Dec 2020 00:00:00 -0700

There is no better way for the Generals to celebrate their 50th episode than to bring on a special person to talk about a special book. Cece, nerd and wife of General Zac, joins in to talk about Good Omens. Released in 1990, this tale of an Angel, a Demon, an Antichrist, and an Apocalypse gone hilariously wrong has left readers laughing hysterically for years. But how could a book penned by the Legendary duo of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett ever been bad? Listen in for how we love it as well as news from Oscar Isaac, HBO Max and more!

Zac's Recommendation: Ka-Zar (comic) by Mark Waid and Andy Kubert

Tyler's Recommendation: Sukiyaki Western Django (movie) dir. by Takashi Miike

Cece's Recommendation: Geek Love (novel) by Katherine Dunn

Zac and Tyler this week take a look in at the genius of Sir Terry Pratchett's wonderful gift to us all, Discworld. To do that they open up (or listen to) the fantastic Guards! Guards! and get their satirical, fantasy, noir crime drama on! Also with news from Digimon:, Space Jam 2, and more!
