This week on The Jock and Nerd Podcast, we celebrate 11 years of podcasting with a packed episode! We react to two of the most anticipated trailers of the year with breakdowns of Dune 3 (2026) and Spider-Man: Brand New Day. We also discuss why Zendaya is set to dominate 2026, take a look at evolving trailer release strategies, and examine the latest Oscar ratings numbers.
Then we dive into our full review of Project Hail Mary (2026), breaking down how the adaptation stacks up and whether it delivers on the hype. We wrap things up with News From The Nation and What Are We Watching?, featuring the latest in streaming TV and returning fan-favorite series.
Thanks for rocking with us for 11 years — we couldn’t do it without you!
