TONY — The new A24 film directed by Matt Johnson stars Dominic Sessa as a young Anthony Bourdain , with Emilia Jones, Leo Woodall, Stavros Halkias, and Antonio Banderas also starring.

We kick things off with your weekly dose of the latest entertainment news , catching up on what's happening across Hollywood, streaming, movies, and pop culture.

Our final movie review of the week takes us to Apple TV+ for Mayday , the latest film offering from Apple. We break down the story, cast, performances, pacing, and overall entertainment value to determine whether Mayday is a must-watch or one you can safely skip. Because this is Nerds Talking , you know we can't possibly end the show normally. The conversation takes a hard left turn when the boys tackle one of humanity's most important questions: Who came first… dinosaurs or humans? Seems simple enough, right? Well… not when we decide to consult the Bible for answers. What follows is a hilarious deep dive into what the Bible actually says, what it doesn't say, and whether we've somehow been interpreting the whole thing wrong this entire time. Dinosaurs, humans, creation, ancient history, and biblical interpretations collide in one of the most ridiculous—and entertaining—discussions we've had. It's the kind of conversation that starts with a legitimate question and ends somewhere nobody expected.

Byrne, Martha Kelly, and Luis Guzmán , with legendary Looney Tunes voices including Eric Bauza.

The Nerds have watched it, we've got opinions, and we're ready to tell you whether this Wile E. Coyote comeback is worth your time—or whether ACME should have left this one in the warehouse!
