Episode 411: Nick's Sports News
April 1st, 2026 | 1 hr 9 mins
amazon prime video, april fools, avatar the last airbender, back to the future, c-3p0, call of duty, d23, dave chappelle, dcu, disney, ditto, eidos montreal, epic games, fallout, fanta, fortnite, gaming, geek, glen powell, god of war, half baked, harry potter, hbo max, he-man, invincible, james tolkan, john hannah, lobo, masters of the universe, miyamoto, moana, movies, nerd, netflix, pikmin, playstation, pokopia, pokémon, project hail mary, pubg, scream, sony, spider-noir, star fox, star wars, super mario, super mario galaxy movie, supergirl, team italy, the masters, the mummy, the world cup, tiger woods, tomb raider, top gun, tv, video games, walt disney pictures, xbox
Major Announcement we are shifting our coverage. This is a permanent change. No there isn't news about PlayStation raising prices. Or That Dave Chappelle is coming to CoD. Nintendo losing a lawsuit, not here. Netflix raising prices, I guess that might warrant sports coverage. Also not sure who Supergirl or He-man are.
