The Fandalorians: Teachers by Day, Nerds by Night

We are officially twenty-five percent of the way through the 21st Century. In school terms? That means the First Quarter is over. The mid-terms are coming up. And it is time to sit this Century down for a serious Parent-Teacher Conference.So, for this episode, we are throwing out the standard Oscars or Golden Globes categories. You won't hear "Best Director" or "Best Visual Effects" today.Instead, we have built “The Fandy’s”, a prestigious award to highlight some of our favorites from the century so far.We’ve broken down the last twenty-five years of movies, TV, games, and internet chaos into categories that actually make sense to those of us who live in the classroom.We’re talking about The "Group Project That Actually Worked" Award for the best crossovers. We’re handing out The "Dog Ate My Homework" Award for the biggest flops. We’re looking at The "Class Clowns," the "Hidden Gems," and yes, we are even handing out the "Please Stop" Award for the slang that has destroyed our souls since the year 2000.We have the red pen ready. We have the rubric. Let’s see who made the Honor Roll and who is getting sent to the Principal’s office. Let’s get into it.Follow the Fandalorians on: Instagram: @fandalorians.podcastYoutube: Check out the Archived episodes  @thefandaloriansTwitter (X): @FandalorianspodTikTok: @thefandalorianspodcastEmail: [email protected] Us: (631) 494-3632🏡 Buying or Selling a Home?Adla Real Estate Group!

Please take your seats and brace yourselves, because today Mr. Richardson is joined by his daughters Hayden and Brynn and former student Adelaide Boese as we dive into Stranger Things season 5 Volume 1. We are breaking down what we liked, what we loved, and yes, a few lovingly picky nitpicks before turning our attention to predicting how the rest of the series wraps up, including who survives, who does not, and who might be heading to the big Upside Down in the sky.

On today’s pod, we are joined by Nicholas Keating Casbarro, creator of the Vitalerium Universe, to talk worldbuilding, sci fi, and what it takes to launch a full blown book universe. Then, because we clearly have no self control, we dive into round three of our ongoing Muppet Movie Casting madness. This time we are aiming straight for the stars as we decide which classic sci fi films absolutely should be remade with felt, chaos, and at least one confused human actor. Buckle up. This one gets weird fast.Find more information about Nicholas Keating Casbarro and his book series here: Website: https://vitaleriumseries.com/ Amazon: https://a.co/d/g33NvYPAudible:  https://www.audible.com/pd/Vitalerium-Descent-into-the-Void-Audiobook/B0DKL8YR1R?source_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdpBarnes & Noble:  https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/vitalerium-descent-into-the-void-nicholas-keating-casbarro/1146017414?ean=9798891323926BAM!: https://www.booksamillion.com/p/Vitalerium-Descent-into-Void/Nicholas-Keating-Casbarro/9798891323926Patreon: patreon.com/InsideVitalerium-Social Media-Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vitaleriumseries/  @vitaleriumseriesFB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553020843285  The Vitalerium SeriesThreads: https://www.threads.com/@vitaleriumseries  @vitaleriumseries X: https://x.com/vitalerium  @vitalerium  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@vitaleriumseries?_t=8lyB9h4ckjG&_r=1  @vitaleriumseries Follow the Fandalorians on: Instagram: @fandalorians.podcastYoutube: Check out the Archived episodes  @thefandaloriansTwitter (X): @FandalorianspodTikTok: @thefandalorianspodcastEmail: [email protected] Us: (631) 494-3632🏡 Buying or Selling a Home?

On today’s episode of The Fandalorians Teachers by Day Nerds by Night, we start with Hollywood eating itself again as Netflix possibly sets its sights on Warner Bros. What does that mean for movies TV and the future of streaming and should we all be mildly concerned or just grab popcorn. Then because the world is already chaotic enough we jump straight into Muppets Round 2 where we take action movies that absolutely do not need to be remade and remake them anyway with Muppets. Car chases explosions one confused human actor and at least one frog who should not be there.Class is back in sessionFollow The Fandalorians on social media and let us know what you think.
