Episode 6.04 -The Rum: In this episode, the guys dive into The Rum, our totally intentional play on Netflix’s The Rip starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, because nothing pairs better with morally questionable characters than a solid pour and strong opinions.We break down the movie’s greatest achievement: making everyone look guilty… but somehow still likable. It’s a masterclass in “We think that person is absolutely guilty, but I’m still rooting for them,” and we unpack all those deliciously messy story beats along the way. Add in some surprisingly solid behind-the-scenes respect (including the stars going out of their way to protect the crew), and there’s more to talk about here than just cool guys doing cool-guy crimes.This is a high-energy, fast-moving episode with plenty of laughs, hot takes, side tangents, and the usual Rum & Nerdy chaos. Grab a drink, embrace the moral ambiguity, and join us for a really fun ride because if everyone’s guilty, no one’s innocent… and that’s half the fun.Two rambling idiots—Greg and Garrick—bring you the *Rum & Nerdy Podcast*, a weekly dive into the world of nerd culture through the eyes of late 40s/early 50s dads who still can't get enough of their favorite movies, TV shows, and theme parks. With a deep love of all things nerdy and a shared passion for good rum, these two buddies mix laid-back humor, nostalgic memories, and plenty of laughs as they discuss everything from classic sci-fi to the latest pop culture trends.
