26: Into the Cage-iverse

Love him or loathe him, you can’t deny that Nicolas Cage is... interesting. in this episode, No. 1 fan Jon breaks the podcast record (probably)for the most NC references, including his ‘recommen-dont’ film called Left Behind (“It’s the f*****g rapture, innit”) - another consequence of Jon’s late night, post-pub viewings. Dan has the misfortune of reviewing Next, the Cage-starring caper he picked from Jon’s Sack of Fun (TM). Our regular ‘Buff or Buff’ Quiz is back - this time featuring facts about Jar Jar Binks, sport horror movies, Eurovision and David Bowie cameos. Find out which piece of trivia is a complete and utter lie. And in our recommendations segment we talk about Bird Box, Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse, The Marvellous Mrs Maisel, and Dan’s latest addition to the Nerd Bookshelf - a Firefly novel. Before all that, hear about our best nerdy Xmas swag, plus Dan’s review of Mary Poppins Returns.
