For All Nerds Show

It's a Tale of Two Stevens/Stephens on ScreamBros: Steven Things this week as Chico Leo and Jamie Righetti dive into Stranger Things. What do Steven Spielberg and Stephen King have to do with the hit Netflix series? A lot more than you might think. We dig into the show's wide range of influences from the 1980's and look into the profitability of nostalgia. Is Stranger Things just a great imitation, or does it bring something original to the table? Plus, we have a few thought on where Season Two might be headed, including why the show needs an injection of well-written characters of color.

This week on special delivery DJ Benhameen and Chico Leo discuss Mr. Robot, Power and the return of Narcos! And the fanbros even have a film recommendation this week!

On the 10th 6th episode of the Slambros podcast, Illa YC and Boman12L are joined by Okayplayer.com Managing Editor, Kevin Clark. The trios tag-team could not come at a better time, as they discuss Ring of Honor’s new six man tag-team champions, another injury update, what Brooklyn was like during the week of Summerslam and the second departure of Alberto Del Rio. After two months, the “New Era” is actually starting to feel “new.” Once again it is Smackdown vs RAW and the 2016 version of the fight is looking increasingly one sided. However, the winning side might not be the brand you are expecting. (No but for real, everyone should be watching Smackdown). In the main segment, The Slambros take a look at first months of the brand split and Smackdown vs RAW 2016. Smackdown is off to a strong start. With The Miz spitting super hot fire, it's no wonder why Smackdown is the talk of the net and the Slambros have their own thoughts on the matter. However, that does not mean RAW is far behind them. Tune in as the three breakdown what they are loving and hating so far about the “New Era.”

Sex Luthor Is In The Loudspeakers Lounge and things will never be the same on the spaceship. Join Chico Leo & Tatiana King Jones as they take over the captain's chair on this very special episode of FanBrosShow. It's a battle to the death between the two hosts as they vie for control of the spaceship and all of the known universe. Kind of like an episode of Vice Principals, but much more intergalatic. And violent. Worry not where BenHaMeen is because the dastardly duo have all of the recap from AfroPunk, an extended trip to Trifling Heights, plus all of the geek and blerd news that you need in your life. Plus perhaps the greatest rendition of Luther Vandross to ever grace the spaceship. Tune in.

On episode 3 of the hit anime podcast Outlaw Barz, Deadly Diva, Jade and Sope rant-review the final (finally) chapter of the Bleach manga. The ladies discuss the some of the more anger inducing anime endings that make no sense; while Sope explains (yet again) why you should never give your heart to an anime. There's also plenty of anime recommendations and news to go around, so sit back, grab your box of strawberry Pocky and hit play!

Chico Leo is here to discuss the best from the last week of TV with you and yours. And he's joined by ScreamBros host Jamie Righetti! On this week's episode Chico and Jamie talk Mr. Robot, The Night Of, Fear The Walking Dead and The Strain

My Mary Jane Is Black and My President Too, so it's time for the haters and the few loud idiots who still think that Mary Jane can't be played by a beautiful talented actress like Zendaya. We don't waste much time with the fools as there are far too many other awesome things to speak on, including the Geekquently Asked Questions, a whole country takes a trip to Trifling Heights, and all of the news and comedy from the team you know and love. Plus the biggest news about New York Comic Con that you will hear anywhere. Shouts to our new found friend Mr. Boyega. We always attack the block bruv.

On this episode, Chico Leo and Jamie Righetti welcome author and film critic Alexandra West to talk about her book, Films of the New French Extremity: Visceral Horror and National Identity. If you're a fan of films like Martyrs, High Tension, Irreversible and Trouble Every Day, then you don't want to miss this episode. We dive into the controversial genre, known for extreme violence, blood and sex, and discuss the larger issues at play, including France's tumultuous history of failed revolutions, Nazism and colonialism and how the attempt to forget but not rectify this past has come back to haunt the country and invade the horror genre. This is a conversation you don't want to miss!

Chico Leo and DJ Benhameen are here to talk the week in TV with YOU! This week the bros talk Mr. Robot, Power and Fear The Walking Dead.

What a wild week for wrestling fans, the WWE is heading back to Brooklyn for Summerslam and NXT Takeover! Wellness violations be damned! The Slambros, Illa YC and Boman12L , have plenty of wrestling to cover for the 9th 5th episode. Another week another health update for a wrestler, this time Shelton Benjamin. How long could this new injury keep him away from returning to the WWE? Also the Slambros examine Stephanie McMahon’s plan to introduce new more diverse content into their programing. Given the WWE’s past, can Vince and company be trusted with LGBT characters? Outside of the dirt sheets, Summerslam weekend is packed! NXT is returning to Brooklyn for another stacked Takeover card. The roster is almost entirely new, but Triple H’s little promotion could once again steal the whole weekend with must see in ring debuts and matches like Asuka vs. Bayley and Samoa Joe vs. Shinsuke Nakamura. That’s only a taste to the main event, Summerslam, on Sunday. John Cena vs AJ Styles II, Brock Lesnar vs Randy Orton, Finn Balor vs Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose vs Ziggler, one or multiple of these could be a match of the year contender. The Slambros have all this and more covered. Plus, this isn’t even their final form!

On this new episode of FanBrosShow Chico Leo & BenHaMeen break down why they were blown away by the premier of the new Netflix series Get Down. While both of them went in with mixed feelings they came out of the experience having seen the light. It's a very special episode for Chico Leo as he has been waiting all of his life to see the early days of Hip-Hop represented on screen. So get ready as thug tears are shed left and right on this one. Not nearly as many as our man Tommy on Power though, and maybe only about half of the ones that were shed in the latest Mr. Robot. Oh we couldn't just leave you with the Get Down review, as we have to cover all of the greatness of the week in television.

The Hat Trick Of Black Stereotypes has almost been achieved by our good friend Will Smith, but after Suicide Squad he still needs one more goal for the trifecta. Give him time folks. Time is not what the FanBros have for Suicide Squad, or more like they have the time to give it the proper review that it deserves. Trust and believe far better things are said about the Luke Cage trailer, and the Geekquently Asked Questions are en fuego this go round. Plus Tech News With Tatiana, Comics I Copped with Benhameen, and the always on point Chico's Pick Of The Week. Patent pending.

On this episode of ScreamBros, Jamie and Chico tackle rape-revenge narratives. Are they empowering or exploitative? We take a look at films like Ms. 45, Lady Snowblood, I Spit On Your Grave and more to unpack the commentary these films make on the lack of real life justice for victims and the women gone wild that we love to cheer for.
