Will Smith did WHAT? & What even is the Metaverse?

The boys talk about the last 3 months, covering the Oscars drama involving Will Smith and Chris Rock, the conflict in Ukraine, NASA going back to the moon, the Australian economy, a few interesting news articles as well as the Metaverse & NFTs. Join us for some laughs and chats about the events of the first quarter of 2022!

We never did actually talk about Moon Knight - but check out episode 2 for our review on the series.

Another slight correction from the first segment - G.I. Jane was a 1997 movie, not 2002.

"Stop trying to make fetch happen" is from Mean Girls (2004).
