It’s a big moment for the humble N3RDS as the trio officially celebrates their 3 year anniversary of podcasting! Luis, Miguel, and Ed reminisce about their favorite moments from the past 3 years and cheers to many more!

Plus, they talk the latest from Bong Joon Ho, MICKEY 17! Does the Robert Pattinson lead movie work or is it a big flop? Opinions are mixed in the group so find out what loser is about to be an expendable.

All of this and of course: What We’re Into - which has Luis and Miguel passionately explaining they’re favorite shows right now. (Miguel gets a little carried away)

This week the boys are back in the form of dynamic duo, Miguel and Ed!

One of the big news points in the last week was the passing of legendary actor Gene Hackman, so naturally we wanted to pay tribute and recall some of our favorites of his vast career, but also took the opportunity to check out a fan favorite, Crimson Tide!

Speaking of tributes, we then move onto our feature discussion this week, the winners of the 97th Academy Awards!

We take a look at some of the big winners of the night (and losers), but we also get into the best looks of the night, best moments, CONAN, the musical numbers (what was with that Bond tribute?), and yes, those speeches.

It’s a laugh and a half… except for the grieving for GH, of course, but we keep it light and tight, so enjoy!
