Happy New Year from all of us here at BWN! This week, we bring you another wild visit to the Trailer Park as we take a look at trailers for the Chevy Chase documentary, a reboot (of sorts) for The Muppet Show, and, wait....PC Tunney recommended a horror film? Apparently so, as we take a look at the trailer for Primate. Of course, the MCU headlines the Trailer Park this week as the Nerds discuss the latest Thor-based Avengers: Doomsday trailer, as well as the official trailer for Wonder Man. How do these two seemingly unrelated trailers fit into the broader scope of the MCU, and what, exactly, does Dr. Doom want with all these kids? In News Around the Nerdosphere, we look at the mammoth success of Zootopia 2, and ponder whether the equally huge success of Stranger Things might cause Netflix to rethink its stance of making movies for the cinema. The Main Event of the show, however, has the Nerds discussing the best of 2025 in the Nerdosphere. Who did we think were our best actors/actresses of the year? What were the best movies and shows? And what were the biggest stories in Nerdom this past year?

With the Nerds between shows to watch, the Trailer Park takes center stage this week as the guys take a look at the latest, including trailers for Cold Storage, Madden, Apex, and The Odyssey. Did Paramount make a mistake by pulling its upcoming animated movie, The Last Airbender, from theatrical release and releasing it directly on Paramount+? In addition to all the news involving a pending WB merger, is the company making yet another mistake by opting to keep Dune 3 in its current release window to go head-to-head with Avengers: Doomsday? Or might this represent a rare opportunity for fans of both franchises to spend a very long day in the theater? Speaking of Doomsday, the guys lament that AI has created some very realistic deep fakes this past week that have duped even the nerdiest of Nerds. All that plus Rey Cash reveals the brackets for the World Comics and Best-Of-The-Rest brackets in the Battle Royal Madness tournament!@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

Unsafe Nigeria; Gumi Describes US Military Action In Sokoto A Terrorist Acthttps://osazuwaakonedo.news/unsafe-nigeria-gumi-describes-us-military-action-in-sokoto-a-terrorist-act/#Issues #Gumi #Omokri #Sokoto #Sowore #Tinubu #Trump #US ©December 26th, 2025 ®December 27, 2025 12:14 am One of the most talked about Islamic Preachers in Nigeria who have had photographs with people suspected to be terrorists; terrorizing villages and communities in the Northern part of Nigeria when he visited the suspected terrorists in their camps inside forests on the ground of having peace talk with the armed groups, Sheikh Ahmad Abubakar Mahmud Gumi has described as a terrorist act the United States, US military action ordered by President Donald Trump that attacked and killed yet to be ascertained total numbers of ISIS affiliated Lakurawa terrorists in Sokoto State on Christmas Day, this, the Islamic Cleric called on the people in the villages affected by the US missiles' strikes on Thursday night to post on social media platforms evidences of damages caused by the US military action, according to Gumi, it is inline with the teaches of Islam for terrorists to be killed, but, the killing must be done by people with a clean and holy hands, and "not by another terrorist whose hands are stained with the blood of hundreds of thousands of innocent children, women, and men just recently", stressing that, the US involvement in the fight against terrorism in Nigeria will make the country becomes an enemy of its neighbours, a theatre of war, because the involvement will attract the real anti-US Forces into the West Africa country, and in a manner that looked like mockery, Sheikh Gumi said "dropping a few bombs here and there cannot tackle the menace of terror; they need serious military on the ground, which, if we are serious, we have enough men to do that", in contrary to Gumi's assertions, the Nigeria Government, through the office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar said it was President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Thursday that gave the US the approval to carry out the strikes against the terrorists, but the government statement apparently did not go down well with Omoyele Sowore, a human rights activist and the founder of SaharaReporters news media, who insisted that "it is evident that the strikes were carried out without the genuine authority or informed consent of the weaklings masquerading as government under Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu", and in a swift reaction to Omoyele Sowore, one of the recently nominated and confirmed Ambassador-Designate, Reno Omokri said "I am afraid I will have to disagree with Mr Omoyele Sowore, and others like him, who are misinforming the Nigerian public that the recent actions against terrorists are proof that Nigeria lacks sovereignty, Such views are indicative of a lack of awareness of international relations, It is also wrong for Mr Sowore to call our government and military weak". #OsazuwaAkonedoUnsafe Nigeria;

China criticized the latest United States National Defense Authorization Act on Thursday, saying it blatantly interferes in China's internal affairs and sends a seriously wrong signal to "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.中国周四批评美国最新通过的《国防授权法案》,称该法案公然干涉中国内政,并向“台独”分裂势力释放出严重错误的信号。Zhang Xiaogang, spokesman for China's Ministry of National Defense, made the remarks at a news conference in response to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, which was signed last week by US President Donald Trump.中国国防部新闻发言人张晓刚是在新闻发布会上就2026财年《国防授权法案》作出上述表态的。该法案已于上周由美国总统唐纳德·特朗普签署。The act includes multiple provisions related to China and allocates about $1 billion for the so-called "Taiwan Security Cooperation Initiative," aimed at enhancing arms sales to China's Taiwan region.该法案包含多项涉华条款,并拨款约10亿美元用于所谓的“台湾安全合作倡议”,旨在加强对中国台湾地区的武器出售。Zhang said the law constitutes blatant interference in China's internal affairs and gravely undermines peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.张晓刚表示,该法案公然干涉中国内政,严重破坏台海地区的和平与稳定。He accused the US of reneging on its commitments by intensifying arms sales to Taiwan, noting that such actions will only embolden "Taiwan independence" separatist forces and push the Taiwan Strait closer to danger and war.他指责美方不断加大对台军售,背弃自身承诺,指出此类行为只会助长“台独”分裂势力的嚣张气焰,将台海局势推向更加危险甚至战争的边缘。Zhang also criticized Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party authorities for "sacrificing the interests of the Taiwan people" and allowing the US to "drain Taiwan dry" in pursuit of its own strategic goals.张晓刚还批评台湾民进党当局“牺牲台湾民众的利益”,纵容美国为实现自身战略目标而“榨干台湾”。"Attempts to use Taiwan to contain China are doomed to fail, and seeking 'independence' through force will only lead to self-destruction," Zhang said.“企图以台制华注定失败,妄图以武谋独只会自取灭亡。”张晓刚说。He urged the US to fully recognize the extreme sensitivity of the Taiwan question, strictly abide by the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiques, and handle Taiwan-related affairs "as cautiously as possible".他敦促美方充分认识台湾问题的高度敏感性,严格恪守一个中国原则和中美三个联合公报,以“极其谨慎的态度”处理涉台问题。The spokesman urged the US to stop arming Taiwan in any form and to safeguard overall China-US relations and bilateral military ties.这位发言人呼吁美方停止以任何形式武装台湾,切实维护中美关系大局和两国两军关系。Also on Thursday, Xu Dong, spokesperson for the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National People's Congress, China's top legislature, expressed strong dissatisfaction with and firm opposition to the newly signed act.同日,全国人大外事委员会发言人许东也对该法案的签署表示强烈不满和坚决反对。Xu said the act continued a long-standing tone of containing China, hyped the so-called "China threat", and constituted blatant interference in China's internal affairs, seriously undermining China's core interests.许东表示,该法案延续了遏制中国的一贯基调,渲染所谓“中国威胁论”,公然干涉中国内政,严重损害中国核心利益。"We hope the US side views China's development and China-US relations objectively and rationally, and works with China to implement the important consensus reached in the meeting between the two countries' heads of state in Busan," Xu said.“我们希望美方客观理性看待中国发展和中美关系,与中方一道落实两国元首在釜山会晤中达成的重要共识。”许东说。"We strongly urge the US to abandon its zero-sum mentality and ideological bias, and to refrain from implementing the China-related negative provisions in the bill," he added.“我们强烈敦促美方摒弃零和思维和意识形态偏见,停止落实法案中涉华的消极条款。”他补充道。He warned that if the US insists on going its own way, China will take resolute measures in accordance with the law to firmly safeguard its sovereignty, security and development interests.他警告称,如果美方一意孤行,中方将依法采取坚决措施,坚定维护国家主权、安全和发展利益。During the news conference, defense spokesman Zhang also slammed Taiwan's regional leader Lai Ching-te for what he described as "kowtowing to the US" and recklessly pursuing militarization, calling him "an instigator of war".在新闻发布会上,张晓刚还抨击台湾地区领导人赖清德“对美卑躬屈膝”,肆意推进军事化,称其为“战争的煽动者”。Lai recently told the media that Taiwan must pursue "peace through strength" and reaffirmed what he called a "rock-solid" relationship with the US, alongside plans to push forward a $40 billion arms procurement.赖清德近日对媒体表示,台湾必须追求“以实力谋和平”,并重申其所谓与美国“坚如磐石”的关系,同时计划推进一项400亿美元的军购计划。Zhang said Taiwan's DPP authorities are colluding with external forces in a bid to pursue "Taiwan independence", which he called the root cause of rising tensions across the Taiwan Strait.张晓刚表示,台湾民进党当局勾连外部势力,企图推动“台独”,这是当前台海紧张局势上升的根本原因。"Lai's unprincipled submission to the US and his reckless pursuit of militarization have turned him into nothing more than a pure destroyer of peace and an instigator of war," Zhang said.“赖清德毫无原则地向美国屈服、肆意推进军事化,使其沦为纯粹的和平破坏者和战争煽动者。”张晓刚说。"Lai now has the audacity to talk about 'peace' while arrogantly boasting about 'strength', a stance that is both delusional and self-deceiving," the spokesman added.这位发言人补充说:“赖清德一边狂妄鼓吹所谓‘实力',一边却空谈‘和平',这种立场既荒谬又自欺欺人。”"The trend toward national reunification is unstoppable," Zhang said. "Those who betray the nation and seek to split the country will ultimately be condemned by history."“国家统一的大势不可阻挡。”张晓刚说,“背叛民族、分裂国家的人终将被历史所唾弃。”blatantly interfere in/ˈbleɪtəntli ˌɪntəˈfɪə(r) ɪn/公然干涉reneg(e) on commitments/rɪˈnɪɡ ɒn kəˈmɪtmənts/背弃承诺arms sales/ɑːmz seɪlz/武器出售/军售three China-US joint communiques/θriː ˈdʒɔɪnt kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪz/中美三个联合公报zero-sum mentality/ˌzɪərəʊ sʌm menˈtæləti/零和思维militarization/ˌmɪlɪtəraɪˈzeɪʃn/军事化instigator of war/ˈɪnstɪɡeɪtə(r) əv wɔː/战争煽动者

Having already decided to abandon official coverage of Season 5, the Nerds give their final verdict on Season 4 as PC Tunney is all too glad to see this series go by the wayside.

There are no so-called "prohibited or restricted waters" in the sea area between Xiamen and Jinmen, an island administered by Taiwan, a spokesperson of the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office said on Saturday.国务院台湾事务办公室发言人周六表示,厦门与台湾当局管辖的金门岛之间的海域不存在所谓的“禁止或限制水域”。Chen Binhua, spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said that Taiwan and the islands of Penghu, Jinmen, and Matsu are parts of China. Waters between Jinmen and Fujian province's Xiamen have long been shared fishing grounds for fishermen from both sides of the Taiwan Strait.国务院台办发言人陈斌华表示,台湾及澎湖、金门、马祖列岛都是中国的一部分。金门与福建厦门之间的海域长期以来一直是海峡两岸渔民的共同渔场。He added that the routine patrols by the Chinese mainland coast guard are crucial for maintaining maritime order and ensuring the safety of fishermen from both sides. He called on the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan to acknowledge the historical and factual realities of these shared fishing areas and to stop unjustified detentions and aggressive actions against fishermen from the Chinese mainland.他补充说,中国大陆海警开展的例行巡航执法对于维护海上秩序、保障两岸渔民生命财产安全至关重要。他敦促台湾民进党当局正视相关海域的历史和事实现实,停止对大陆渔民进行无理扣押和挑衅性行为。Chen warned that the DPP authorities would bear full responsibility for any consequences if such actions were to continue.陈斌华警告称,如上述行为继续发生,由此产生的一切后果将由民进党当局承担全部责任。prohibited or restricted waters禁止或限制水域State Council Taiwan Affairs Office国务院台湾事务办公室shared fishing grounds共同渔场routine patrols例行巡航/例行巡逻unjustified detentions无理扣押

A Chinese mainland spokesman on Wednesday condemned Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party authorities for banning the mainland social media app RedNote, or Xiaohongshu, calling the move "an act against democracy" and driven by self-interest.中国大陆发言人周三谴责台湾民进党当局封禁大陆社交媒体应用“小红书”(RedNote),并称此举是“反民主行为”,受私利驱使。Chen Binhua, spokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said at a news conference that the DPP authorities' decision deprives people in Taiwan, especially young people, of their right to information and their freedom to use social media platforms.国务院台办发言人陈斌华在新闻发布会上表示,民进党当局的决定剥夺了台湾民众,尤其是年轻人的信息权和使用社交媒体平台的自由。The ban, announced on Dec 4, was imposed by Taiwan's "interior affairs department" for a year, citing alleged failures in "multiple cybersecurity indicators" and claims of "frequent fraud".该禁令于12月4日宣布,由台湾“内政部门”以所谓“多个网络安全指标不达标”和“频繁涉诈”为由,实施为期一年的封禁。Chen argued that RedNote allows people in Taiwan, especially young users, to learn about the mainland's real situation and interact positively with mainland netizens. This, he added, breaks through the "information cocoons" and long-standing slander about the mainland that the DPP authorities have deliberately cultivated.陈斌华指出,小红书让台湾民众,特别是年轻用户能够了解大陆真实情况,并与大陆网友积极互动,有助于打破民进党当局刻意营造的“信息茧房”和长期对大陆的抹黑叙事。"The DPP authorities claim they are 'combating fraud', but in reality they are acting 'against democracy'," he said, adding that the ban exposes their "inner fear and unease".他表示:“民进党当局声称在‘打击诈骗',但实际上是在‘反民主'。”此举暴露了他们“内心的恐惧与不安”。Chen denounced the ban as a reckless action that tramples on democracy and restricts freedom. "It has also severely affected the livelihoods of those in Taiwan who rely on RedNote for income," he added.陈斌华谴责该禁令是践踏民主、限制自由的鲁莽行为,并补充说:“这也严重影响了依赖小红书谋生的台湾民众的生计。”According to reports, RedNote has more than 3 million users in Taiwan, 70 percent of whom were born after 1990. Following the announcement of the ban, downloads of the app surged, pushing RedNote to the top of Taiwan's social app download rankings on Sunday. The app is still available on both Google Play Store and Apple App Store, but it can only be used through a VPN.据报道,小红书在台湾拥有超过300万用户,其中70%为“90后”。禁令宣布后,应用下载量激增,使其在周日登上台湾社交类应用下载榜首。尽管小红书仍可在Google Play和苹果App Store下载,但只能通过VPN使用。Chen pointed to media reports showing that Facebook was involved in nearly 60,000 fraud cases last year and has already exceeded 30,000 cases this year, far more than the number attributed to RedNote by the DPP authorities.陈斌华引用媒体报道指出,Facebook去年涉诈近6万起,今年已超3万起,远高于民进党当局归因于小红书的数字。He further criticized the DPP authorities for opposing anything that Taiwan residents use and blocking anything popular among young people, from mainland-based shopping platforms and video sites to social media, saying the DPP has effectively become the "party of restricting people".他进一步批评民进党当局对台湾民众所用之物皆反对,对年轻人喜爱的热门应用皆加以封堵——从大陆购物平台、视频网站到社交媒体,称其事实上已成“限制人民的政党”。The ban has drawn widespread criticism across the island. Cheng Li-wun, chairwoman of the Chinese Kuomintang party, said the DPP's ban on RedNote is merely the first step toward building a "great firewall" under the guise of fighting fraud.该禁令在岛内引发广泛批评。中国国民党主席郑丽文表示,民进党以打诈为名封禁小红书,只是构建“防火长城”的第一步。She noted that the DPP authorities cannot tolerate the fact that on RedNote, users of different backgrounds can freely and amicably discuss topics ranging from beauty and fashion to everyday life.她指出,民进党当局无法容忍不同背景的用户在小红书上自由、友善地交流,从美妆、时尚到日常生活的各类话题。"The DPP authorities will inevitably face the consequences of their reckless actions," Chen said, adding that such regressive measures cannot stop the growing trend of people in Taiwan, especially young people, seeking to learn about and connect with their compatriots on the mainland.陈斌华表示:“民进党当局必将为其鲁莽行为承担后果。”他强调,这类倒退举措无法阻挡台湾民众,尤其是年轻人了解大陆、与大陆同胞交流的趋势。Condemn/kənˈdem/谴责self-interest/'self'intərist/私利information cocoon信息茧房regressive measures倒退举措
The Democratic Progressive Party authorities have banned the mainland social media app RedNote, or Xiaohongshu, out of self-interest, depriving the people of Taiwan of their right to information and to freely use social media platforms, a Chinese mainland spokesman said on Wednesday.中国大陆发言人周三表示,民进党当局出于私利,禁止大陆社交媒体使用小红书,剥夺了台湾民众获取信息和自由使用社交媒体平台的权利。Responding to the DPP authorities' recent decision to ban RedNote, Chen Binhua, spokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said at a news conference that although the DPP claims the move is aimed at "combating fraud", it is in fact "an act against democracy".针对民进党当局近期决定禁止小红书,国务院台湾事务办公室发言人陈斌华在记者会上表示,尽管民进党声称此举旨在“打击欺诈”,但实际上却是“反民主行为”。Chen said that through RedNote, people in Taiwan, especially young users, learn about the mainland's real situation and engage positively with mainland netizens. This, he noted, breaks through the "information cocoons" and long-standing slander against the mainland that the DPP authorities have deliberately fostered.陈斌华表示,通过小红书平台,台湾民众特别是年轻用户能够了解大陆真实情况,并与大陆网民积极互动。他指出,这有效打破了民进党当局刻意营造的“信息茧房”以及长期以来对大陆的污蔑。On Dec 4, the DPP authorities imposed a one-year ban on RedNote, which has more than 3 million users in Taiwan, 70 percent of whom were born in the 1990s. The authorities cited reasons such as "failing multiple cybersecurity indicators" and "frequent fraud".12月4日,台湾当局对拥有逾300万用户的社交平台小红书实施为期一年的禁令,其中70%用户为90后。当局以“多项网络安全指标不合格”以及“频繁发生诈骗行为”等理由作出禁令。Chen condemned the ban as a reckless act that tramples on democracy, restricts freedom, and deprives the people of Taiwan, especially young people, of their right to information and to access social media platforms freely. "It has also seriously affected the livelihoods of those in Taiwan who depend on RedNote for income," he added.陈斌华谴责这项禁令是践踏民主、限制自由的鲁莽行径,剥夺了台湾民众——尤其是年轻一代——获取信息和自由使用社交媒体平台的权利。他补充道:“此举还严重影响了台湾地区依赖小红书平台谋生的从业者的生计。”Citing media reports, Chen pointed out that Facebook was involved in nearly 60,000 fraud cases last year and has already surpassed 30,000 cases this year, far exceeding the number of incidents attributed to RedNote by the DPP authorities.陈斌华援引媒体报道指出,脸书去年涉及近六万宗诈骗案件,今年迄今已突破三万宗,远超民进党当局归咎于小红书的案件数量。Chen criticized the DPP authorities for opposing anything used by the people of Taiwan and blocking anything popular among young people—from shopping platforms and video sites to social media platforms from the mainland—saying the DPP has effectively become the "party of restricting people".陈斌华批评民进党当局反对台湾民众使用的任何事物,阻挠年轻人喜爱的任何平台——从购物平台、视频网站到大陆社交媒体平台——称民进党已实质上成为“限制人民的政党”。"The DPP authorities will inevitably face the consequences of their reckless actions," Chen said, adding that such regressive measures cannot halt the growing trend of people in Taiwan, especially young people, seeking to learn about and connect with their compatriots on the mainland.陈斌华表示,民进党当局终将为其鲁莽行径付出代价,并强调此类倒退措施无法阻挡台湾民众——尤其是年轻人——日益增长的了解大陆同胞、与之建立联系的趋势。

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week. This week, we're talking about the CFDA banning the use of fur in shows on its official New York Fashion Week calendar, following similar decisions by fashion weeks in London, Copenhagen and Berlin. We also discuss the U.K. banning ads from brands like Nike, Superdry and Lacoste over misleading sustainability claims. Lastly, we discuss the Prada-Versace deal, which officially closed this week, just a day before creative director Dario Vitale departed the company. Vitale served as Versace's creative director for only nine months. Later in the episode, Zofia is joined by Leanne Elliott Young, CEO of the Institute of Digital Fashion, to discuss the growing use of digital passports in the fashion industry. Digital product passports, or DPPs, embed product data into a scannable code that lets both retailers and customers track an item's provenance. The idea is to make authentication easier and keep a record of the chain of possession of an item, particularly a luxury item, over the course of its life. The E.U. recently passed a regulation requiring all products sold starting in 2027 to have a DPP, forcing brands to start thinking about implementing this feature. The Institute of Digital Fashion is consulting with brands to help prepare for that rollout.
Having a quick squizz at the the official positions, what might happen in the early parts of your #AFLFantasy draft and some extra DPP adds from the Keeper platform.
On this episode of BWN, Rey Cash makes his long-awaited return just in time to hear the Bandwagon voice more complaints about The Witcher, Season 4. This week, the guys reviewed Episode 5, and to say it wasn't well-received would be an understatement. At least one BWN member had had enough of the show. Is he in the minority? There is a very stripped-down version of the Trailer Park, along with newsworthy stories such as whether a Home Alone sequel might be in the works, Zootopia 2's big weekend, and an examination of DC's upcoming movies and shows. Plus, the guys look at Variety Magazine's listing of the Top 100 comedies of all time. Did the guys agree with this take, or did they reject it?@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

In this episode of BWN, we talk a little about Thanksgiving preparations and a lot about The Witcher Season 4, Episode 4. Episode 4 featured key character arcs and developments, while a central mystery about Regis's true nature was revealed. Tunney still hates the show; Patrick and Dave are not so sour on it. What say you, fellow nerd? The conversation then shifts to a loaded trailer park segment, where the guys take a look at the Beatles anthology re-release, a documentary exploring the 1985 Chicago Bears and their Super Bowl Shuffle, and a first look at the live-action remake of Moana. They delve into the redundancy of live-action remakes and the impact of Disney's marketing strategies. The nerds then discuss some recent renewals and delays in the nerdosphere, including the renewal of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms for a second season (before the first season has even aired) and the delay of the DC series Lanterns. The episode concludes with a discussion of Eddie Murphy's tremendous documentary Being Eddie, highlighting his influence on comedy and film and his recent honors.@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

Northern Ireland based Plaswire, a leader in recycling solutions, has announced a groundbreaking initiative that uses blockchain, IoT and AI technology to revolutionise the recycling of wind turbine blades, unlocking a seismic opportunity for other sectors, including aerospace. Wind Turbine Blade Recycling Partnering with digital trade specialist company ubloquity, the new system sets a new global standard for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance, delivering transparent and granular traceability for Plaswire's RX polymer - a recycled composite material derived from decommissioned wind turbine blades. This marks the world's first application of blockchain to track and verify recycled polymers throughout the entire lifecycle, from blade collection to reuse. Andrew Billingsley, CEO of Plaswire, explains: "By 2035, millions of wind turbine blades installed in the 2000s and 2010s will reach the end of their 20-30 year lifespan, creating millions of tonnes of composite waste. Europe alone is expected to generate around 350,000 tonnes of end-of-life blades by 2030 - this presents both a significant challenge and opportunity for sustainable recycling and circular economy solutions, such as those pioneered by Plaswire. "This collaboration with ubloquity marks a major step forward for the recycling of wind turbine blades. For the first time, we can provide complete transparency on the journey of every kilogram of our RX polymer, from its origin in decommissioned wind turbine blades to its next life in new products - all in real-time. That level of traceability is transformative for industries under increasing pressure to cut their environmental impact and achieve ambitious sustainability goals. We are particularly excited about the opportunities this creates for the aerospace and defence sectors where the highest levels of traceability and transparency are not just desired; they are essential." Working with the major global wind developers, Plaswire fully recycles wind turbine blades into durable RX polymer, which is then used for construction, packaging, logistics parts and furniture. With this new blockchain solution added to the process, the company offers its extended customer base a fully traceable, sustainable solution supporting the principles of the circular economy. Rick Atherton, Technical Project Manager at ubloquity, added: "Trust and transparency are essential if recycled materials are to be widely adopted. By implementing our digital product passport (DPP) and combining Plaswire's processing and shop floor recycling data, we can demonstrate exactly where their polymer originates and how it is reused. This gives industries the confidence to choose recycled composites over virgin materials and helps them deliver on their sustainability commitments." Plaswire believes this solution could extend beyond the energy sector, particularly into aerospace, where thousands of aircraft are expected to be retired over the next decade, producing significant volumes of composite waste. The company estimates that its new system could cut carbon emissions by 2.7 tonnes of CO? for every ton of material processed, significantly driving a circular economy. Dr Leslie Orr, Director of ADS Northern Ireland said: "Net Zero carbon is a key goal for the aerospace industry. It is great to see two Northern Ireland companies working together addressing a global issue. This recycling tracking solution from Plaswire and ubloquity is an innovative contribution to our industry, to recycling and to the environmental protection of our planet." About Plaswire Plaswire develops recycling solutions for hard-to-process materials such as wind turbine blades and aircraft interiors, creating new resources like RX Polymer to replace high-carbon virgin materials. Plaswire is deeply committed to the pursuit of a net-zero future, where every action and decision is guided by the principles of environmental responsibility. About ubloquity Based in B...
In this episode of Bandwagon Nerds, the Nerds dive into their disappointment with The Witcher Season 4, Episode 3. Episode 3 may have introduced a perilous new enemy, but beyond that, Episode 3 could not get out of its own way. A longer-than-usual visit to the Trailer Park includes a wild new Sam Rockwell film, Fallout Season 2, Toy Story 5, Super Mario Galaxy, and Season 2 of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters! In News Around the Nerdosphere, the guys discuss a potentially perfect screening decision for a reboot of Alice in Wonderland. Meanwhile, Star Trek is actively looking for a new showrunner, and it appears that V for Vendetta will be headed to the small screen.

In this episode of Bandwagon Nerds, the guys continue their review of Season 4 of The Witcher. Episode 2 is a significant improvement and a hopeful step in the right direction, marked by the introduction of Lawrence Fishburne to the cast. How big a difference might his character make to Season 4 as a whole, and how are the guys feeling about the overall direction of Season 4 so far? A journey to the Trailer Park revealed the title for the sequel to Godzilla: Minus-One, as well as the first look at Michael, a Stranger Things animated spin-off, and a bloody new (ish) version of Kill Bill, coming to theaters next month. Speaking of Stranger Things, the fellas address an ugly rumor about David Harbour and Millie Bobby Brown.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 189-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 27,906 on turnover of 8.8-billion N-T. The market took a beating on Wednesday, led by large cap artificial intelligence-related stocks on the back of heavy losses by tech stocks on Wall Street overnight amid investor concerns of an A-I bubble. MOFA still in talks with Estonia over opening reciprocal offices Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung says the government is still in talks with Estonia on the "name and legal status" related to setting up reciprocal (互惠的) representative offices. Speaking during a legislative hearing, Lin said the ongoing talks are focusing on issues such as the title of the representative offices, their legal status, and other concerns related to diplomatic immunity and privileges. The statement follows reports that the government is hoping the office will follow the formula of its counterpart in Lithuania, called the "Taiwanese Representative Office in Lithuania." However, Estonia is reportedly insisting on using the title "Taipei" due to concerns about a backlash from China. DPP claims 'most' people oppose opposition pension proposals The D-P-P legislative caucus says a recent survey shows a majority (多數) of people oppose bills proposed by the K-M-T to end annual cuts to civil servant pensions. The survey was conducted by the D-P-P. According to D-P-P lawmaker Wu Si-yao, it found that 59.7-per cent of respondents supported continuing pension reforms initiated by the D-P-P in 2016, while only 31.7-per cent thought they should be stopped. Wu says stopping reforms will exacerbate inequality between active and retired workers, civil servants and workers receiving labor, farmer and national pensions. The K-M-T legislative caucus has placed the bills at the top of its priority for the current legislative session. Philippine Typhoon Death Toll Rises Philippine officials say the death toll from flooding and damage caused by Typhoon Kalmaegi has risen to at least 114. They say 127 others are reported missing, with many of them in a hard-hit province still recovering from a deadly earthquake. The Philippine government says most of the deaths were reported in the central province of Cebu, which was struck by Kalmaegi on Tuesday, setting off flash floods and causing a river and other waterways to overflow (溢出). Kalmaegi moved away from western Palawan province into the South China Sea before noon Wednesday and was heading toward Vietnam. Supreme Court skeptical of Trump tariffs The US Supreme Court appeared skeptical of President Donald Trump's power to unilaterally impose tariffs during a three-hour hearing. It comes after Trump used a law designed for national emergencies to justify his sweeping (廣泛的,全面的) economic agenda Nick Harper reports from the Supreme Court in Washington DC. Interpol Launches Campaign to Fight Illegal Deforestation Interpol and partners have launched a global law enforcement effort to fight illegal deforestation in tropical areas. Wednesday's announcement says it's aimed at dismantling (拆解) criminal networks behind illegal logging, timber trafficking and gold mining. They drive large-scale deforestation and generate billions in illicit profits each year. The effort was announced ahead of the U.N. COP30 climate summit in Brazil. It will focus mainly on tropical forests in Brazil, Ecuador, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Peru. Interpol is working with with the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime on the new effort.

Courts, Climate & Common Sense – Austria's Supreme Court President Georg Kodek on Why the Law Can't Save the PlanetIn this compelling episode, The Fifth Court hosts Peter Leonard BL and Mark Tottenham BL sit down with Georg Kodek, President of the Austrian Supreme Court, during the European Law Institute Conference in Vienna.He explains why courts can't be expected to fix climate change – and why real solutions must come from politics and public conviction, not litigation.From a Peruvian farmer's lawsuit against German power plants to how TikTok might be used by the Austrian Supreme Court, Kodek discusses the limits of law in global challenges – and why judges must learn to speak to the public again.But first, three fascinating Decisis.ie cases:DPP v Clark – Repeat firearm offender sees sentence increased from 6 to 7½ years.DPP v BK – Conviction of a mother set aside after court finds statements in a safeguarding assessment unreliable.Harford v Commissioner of An Garda Síochána – Judicial review dismissed where a criminal trial was deemed an adequate remedy.Sponsored by Charltons Solicitors & Collaborative Practitioners, specialising in Family Law, Civil Litigation, Property, Wills and Probate.

Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC are joined by Chair of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee, Dame Emily Thornberry, to discuss the evidence given to the Joint Committee on the National Security Strategy by key individuals involved in the decisions to prosecute and ultimately abandon the Chinese Spying case (R v Cash and Berry). In a highly unusual public examination of the collapse of a politically sensitive prosecution only weeks before it was due to commence, the Joint Committee subjected DPP Stephen Parkinson, First Treasury Counsel Tom Little KC, Deputy National Security Adviser Matthew Collins and Attorney General Lord Hermer KC to detailed cross examination over some 4 ½ hours with a view to understanding what had changed since the charging decision in April 2024 to make the case against Messrs Cash and Berry impossible to continue as the DPP and Tom Little claimed. Did the judgment in the Russian spy case (R v Roussev) handed down in July 2024 really make any difference to the DPP's ability to present a case under the Official Secrets Act 1911? Given the clear and consistent evidence of China's active threat to the safety and security of the UK during the indictment period as set out in Matt Collins's three witness statements, why couldn't a jury determine that China was in law “an enemy” for the purposes of the charge? And was Lord Hermer right to lay the blame for the collapse of the trial on the failure of the Conservative government speedily to replace the 1911 Act with an updated National Security Act as recommended by the Law Commission in 2017? -- Covering the critical intersections of politics and law in the UK with expert commentary on high-profile legal cases, political controversies, prisons and sentencing, human rights law, current political events and the shifting landscape of justice and democracy.

In this episode of Bandwagon Nerds, the guys are back, so is The Witcher, and PC Tunney needs your support. Tunney is rather displeased with the start of Season 4 and not just because Liam Hemsworth has replaced Henry Cavill in the titular role of Geralt. But what did Patrick and Dave think of the first Episode, and are there reasons to believe Season 4 might still be good? A limited visit to the Trailer Park looks at the official trailer for one of the most anticipated series returning to Netflix in a few weeks, Stranger Things Season 5, as well as the seventh (yes, seventh!) installment of the Scream franchise. There is also a lot of news around the Nerdosphere. Call of Duty is on its way to the big screen. Disney created controversy as it backed out of its deal with Doctor Who and got into a dispute with YouTube. Oh, and those rumors about Netflix wanting to buy WB-Discovery might be more real than we thought. But the question remains: Just how much of WB-Discovery does Netflix really want?@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the incredible screenwriter, showrunner, producer and dungeon master CRAIG MAZIN!Craig is a self proclaimed Pipster! Which bodes incredibly well as an opening gambit right there... This is such a treat of an episode which anyone possessing an interest in the making of television (and cinema in general) will get an immense kick out of. Chances are you will know Craig from his recent work on The Last Of Us, some of you may go back to the Chernobyl miniseries times, and some even further to the Hangover movies, but none of these can be considered pigeonholes. There is so much in the craft of these projects, and as viewers of them will know - the humanity is undeniable, and that's something that just cannot be faked or phoned-in. So what you hear here is a conversation with someone who makes incredible shows and movies, informed by a love of the work, the people involved, and life in general. To hear that he was once blamed by a critic for being "singularly responsible for degrading Western Civilization" will make absolutely negative sense by the time you've heard this. Oh and stay for the shared Barney story too, cos that rules.

Serious questions get raised about Disney's handling of Star Wars, and Zack Snyder's ongoing attempt to remain a focus of interest and influence in the DC universe.

Compatriots from Taiwan will be invited to attend a commemorative gathering marking the 80th anniversary of Taiwan's restoration to China, which will be held around Saturday on the mainland, a Chinese mainland spokesperson said on Wednesday.中国大陆一位发言人于周三表示,台湾同胞将受邀出席一场纪念台湾回归中国 80 周年的纪念大会,该大会将于周六前后在大陆举行。Zhu Fenglian, spokeswoman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said that representatives from various sectors, including Taiwan compatriots, will be invited to attend the event, while related visits and exchange activities will also be organized.国务院台湾事务办公室发言人朱凤莲表示,包括台湾同胞在内的各界代表将受邀出席此次活动,同时还将组织相关参访交流活动。Highlighting the significance of Taiwan's restoration as an important achievement of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45), Zhu said the commemoration aims to unite Chinese people from all over the world, including compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.朱凤莲强调,台湾光复是中国人民抗日战争(1931-1945 年)的重要成果,具有重大意义。她表示,此次纪念活动旨在团结包括海峡两岸同胞在内的全球中华儿女。It aims to bring them together to jointly remember the history of the war, pay tribute to the heroes who fought against Japanese invaders, safeguard the victorious outcome of the war, which is Taiwan's return to the motherland, and protect the common home of the Chinese nation, she said.她指出,纪念活动旨在凝聚大家的力量,共同铭记抗战历史,缅怀抗击日本侵略者的英雄先烈,捍卫包括台湾回归祖国在内的抗战胜利成果,守护中华民族共同的家园。Zhu added that Taiwan compatriots are welcome to join their mainland counterparts in sharing the pride and dignity of being Chinese.朱凤莲补充道,欢迎台湾同胞与大陆同胞一道,共同分享作为中国人的自豪与尊严。On Oct 16, Taiwan's "mainland affairs council" banned public officials from participating in commemorative events on the mainland marking the 80th anniversary of Taiwan's recovery. The order also requires members of school faculties, political parties and organizations, as well as related individuals, to refrain from participating in any mainland-organized activities or events.10 月 16 日,台湾地区所谓 “大陆事务委员会” 禁止公职人员参与大陆举办的纪念台湾光复 80 周年相关活动。该禁令还要求学校教职工、政党及社团成员以及相关个人不得参与任何由大陆组织的活动。Zhu condemned this separatist stance of "Taiwan independence" of the Democratic Progressive Party authorities, saying that it distorts and denies historical facts and undervalues the victory in the war of resistance.朱凤莲谴责民进党当局这种 “台独” 分裂行径,指出其歪曲、否认历史事实,轻视抗战胜利成果。"By intimidating and suppressing Taiwan compatriots from participating in related commemorative events, the DPP authorities have completely abandoned the national stance, which already faces opposition and will increasingly face more opposition and condemnation from the people of Taiwan," she said.她说:“民进党当局恐吓、阻挠台湾同胞参与相关纪念活动,完全背离民族立场,这一做法已经遭到反对,未来必将遭到台湾民众更多的反对与谴责。”Referring to the DPP's demand of "equal dialogue" with the mainland, Zhu said it is an attempt to resume cross-Strait consultations without recognizing the 1992 Consensus, and distorts the historical and legal fact that both sides of the Strait belong to one China.谈及民进党方面提出与大陆 “平等对话” 的要求,朱凤莲表示,这是其在不承认 “九二共识” 的情况下试图恢复两岸协商,且歪曲了海峡两岸同属一个中国的历史和法律事实。"In essence, this only creates obstacles for cross-Strait dialogue and consultations, and is doomed to fail," she said, emphasizing that the 1992 Consensus continues to serve as the anchor of peace across the Strait.她强调:“本质上,这只会为两岸对话协商制造障碍,注定不会得逞。” 同时指出,“九二共识” 仍是维护台海和平稳定的定海神针。According to the spokeswoman, cross-Strait tourism is being mainly hindered by the DPP authorities, as tour groups from Fujian province and Shanghai have been unable to visit Taiwan despite having received permits from the mainland earlier this year.这位发言人表示,两岸旅游主要受到民进党当局的阻碍。今年早些时候,福建省和上海市的旅游团虽已获得大陆方面的许可,但至今仍无法赴台旅游。"The mainstream public opinion in Taiwan supports peace, development, exchanges and cooperation. The DPP authorities have positioned themselves against such mainstream public opinion in Taiwan, and they are bound to be rejected by the people," Zhu said.朱凤莲表示:“台湾社会的主流民意是支持和平、发展、交流、合作的。民进党当局与台湾主流民意背道而驰,必然会遭到民众的反对。”The mainland has introduced a series of measures to facilitate cross-Strait exchanges, including introducing free applications for travel permits for first-time visitors from Taiwan and expanding the list of entry ports supporting on-arrival permit applications.大陆已推出一系列便利两岸交流的举措,包括对首次来大陆的台湾居民实行旅行证免费申请,以及扩大支持落地签申请的入境口岸范围。"During the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-30), the high-quality economic and social development of the mainland will provide more opportunities for Taiwan compatriots and enterprises," Zhu said, adding that systems and policies promoting cross-Strait economic and cultural exchanges will be further improved.朱凤莲表示:“‘十四五'规划(2026-2030 年)期间,大陆经济社会高质量发展将为台湾同胞和台湾企业提供更多机遇。” 她还补充道,促进两岸经济文化交流的制度和政策将进一步完善。compatriot音标:/kəmˈpeɪtriət/翻译:同胞;同国人搭配:fellow compatriots(同胞们)、Taiwan compatriots(台湾同胞)commemoration音标:/kəˌmeməˈreɪʃn/翻译:纪念;纪念活动搭配:commemorative gathering(纪念大会)、in commemoration of(为纪念……)restoration音标:/ˌrestəˈreɪʃn/翻译:恢复;光复(文中特指 “回归”)搭配:the restoration of Taiwan to China(台湾回归中国)、restoration of peace(和平的恢复)consensus音标:/kənˈsensəs/翻译:共识;一致意见搭配:the 1992 Consensus(“九二共识”)、reach a consensus(达成共识)编辑分享
With the China spying case continuing to generate headlines, mystery and yet more uncertainty surrounding the true reason for the DPP's decision to drop charges against Chris Cash and Chris Berry under the Official Secrets Act 1911, and Double Jeopardy having been sent an anonymously leaked copy of his expert witness statement, Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC secure an exclusive interview with Professor Kerry Brown, the former UK diplomat, academic and China expert who was due to be a defence witness on behalf of Chris Berry had the case gone to trial. Ken and Tim discuss with Prof Brown a number of the issues he was due to cover at the trial – the recent history of UK/China relations; the networks in Britain engaged with China; the structure of decision-making in China; whether Chris Berry could conceivably have met the second most powerful man in China, Cai Qi, as the Security Services had “assessed”, in the course of his alleged spying activities; analysis of the likely security and intelligence value of the information passed between Cash, Berry and the alleged Chinese State Security agent “Alex”; and, finally, the concept of China as an “enemy” State. Bearing in mind the force, clarity and weight which was bound to be attached to Prof Brown's defence report, Ken and Tim suggest that the timing of the service of his report and the DPP's decision to drop the case appears to be more than a coincidence. Was service of the Brown report on 29th August 2025 the trigger for the meeting convened on 1st September (Chaired by National Security Adviser Jonathan Powell and attended by 20 senior mandarins and spy chiefs as well as Doug Wilson, director-general of the attorney general's office) where the general theme was how the UK's relationship with China was going to be damaged by the case and where the main “action point”, according to Caroline Wheeler's well briefed article in the Times, was for the AG's office to relay these concerns to the DPP? The duo conclude by agreeing that unless and until the written advice given to the DPP by prosecuting counsel, Tom Little KC, as to why the case was dropped is published following a waiver of privilege by the Attorney General, the mystery surrounding this case will continue. ----------- Covering the critical intersections of politics and law in the UK with expert commentary on high-profile legal cases, political controversies, prisons and sentencing, human rights law, current political events and the shifting landscape of justice and democracy.

The Trailer Park kicks off this week's edition of BWN. Three previews catch our eye: The Age of Disclosure, Send Help and a second trailer for The Running Man.

Will The Smashing Machine live up to Chrisopher Nolan's praise? And, why Finn Wolfard references Game of Thrones when talking about the final season of Stranger Things.

In the wake of Robert Jenrick's speech to the Conservative Party Conference likening Attorney General Lord Hermer KC to a “Mafia lawyer”, accusing him and Keir Starmer of treason in relation to the Chagos Islands agreement and calling for the sacking of “activist” Judges together with the return of political appointments to our judiciary, Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC ask whether Jenrick's disgusting, populist bile make him the Stephen Miller of UK politics. They also debate the Government's kneejerk response to further demonstrations in support of Palestine Action in the form of Shabana Mahmood's promise to legislate to ban protests on the basis of “cumulative disruption” to the community, despite there being ample powers under existing laws to do just that. The duo then revisit the continuing mystery of why the DPP felt he had to abandon the criminal trial of Christopher Berry and Christoper Cash on charges of spying for China under the Official Secrets Act 1911 before finishing with praise for the judgment of Mr Justice Bennathan in acquitting a Turkish man for burning a Koran outside the Turkish Consulate in Knightsbridge earlier this year in protest at the Islamisation policies of the Erdogan government.

Lessons from Cameron-Brooks Alumni on Military to Business Transition Success Each Cameron-Brooks Career Conference represents a major career event for our JMOs. In these military to business transition successes, officers together years of military service and months, (maybe even years of preparation in the Development and Preparation Program). Then, they interview with Industry leading companies in business. Our JMOs at the August 2025 Career Conference averaged 10.3 interviews over a two-day period. Additionally, every single JMO was pursued into the follow up process. Recently, I had the opportunity to sit down with my teammate Geoff Fries and three Cameron-Brooks alumni who attended the August Conference. In this episode, they share their experiences and insights pre-conference in DPP, during the conference, and during the post-conference where they earned offers, evaluated them and made a decision to launch their next career. Together, we unpacked their stories and explored what their preparation, mindset, and execution looked like resulting in their military to business transition successes. Below, I'll highlight their lessons, strategies, and mindsets - from early preparation to behavioral interviews and ultimately into final decision-making. Meet the Alumni: Three Distinct Paths to Success Before diving into strategies, here's where these three standout officers landed: Matt Dahlager, an Army Military Intelligence Captain, joined Ubicquia, a smart grid technology company that leverages sensors and AI to improve energy infrastructure. He'll serve as an Area Sales Manager for the Ohio River Valley region. Spencer Preston, a former Marine Corps officer, accepted a role as a Summit Fellow at USAA in San Antonio, Texas. He'll rotate through key leadership areas such as CEO staff, property and casualty operations, or CFO development roles. Weslee Warren, a Navy Surface Warfare Officer, joined Corning Optical Communications in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he'll work as a Technical Program Manager driving fiber-to-the-premises projects and collaborating with engineering and product teams. Building a Foundation: Start Early One of the strongest themes in our conversation was the value of time spent in DPP. On average, candidates spend about 11 months preparing through the Cameron-Brooks program. Spencer prepared for 38 months. Wes spent about one year. Matt invested nearly two years. During that time, Cameron-Brooks was able to meet them multiple times for in person and virtual preparation sessions, which allowed them to: Build Trust with Cameron-Brooks Early engagement allowed each candidate to develop a trusted relationship with the Cameron-Brooks team - vital since our team members advocate for each candidate directly with partner companies. Conduct Self-Assessment and Reflection Before they could tell their story to companies, they had to understand it themselves. This meant revisiting military experiences in order to translate their military experiences into relevant business leadership accomplishment with clear impact and results. Leadership, problem-solving, mission alignment, etc. and how that translates into private-sector value. Learn Business Skills and Apply them They didn't just study business - they applied it. By integrating recognized industry concepts that they learned in DPP such as Lean Six Sigma into their current military duties, they created concrete examples that later became powerful interview stories. Invest in themselves Hundreds of hours of practice, reflection, and preparation went into preparation before the Conference. Learning to Speak the Language of Business Each alumnus emphasized how critical it was to learn the language of the Business. Their Go-To Learning Tools: Books and Business Education: They read extensively - diving into leadership, finance, and operations management books, reviews, articles,
In this episode of Bandwagon Nerds, the Nerds return to discuss the penultimate Episode of Peacemaker Season 2. This was a relatively short Episode, but boy howdy, did it pack all sorts of action, humor, shocks, and emotion into the little time they had. At the end of the day, Chris seems like a broken man, setting the stage for what should be an amazing and wild season finale. An extended trip to the Trailer Park explores the question of Who Killed the Montreal Expos? But we also explore another zombie apocalypse movie (We Bury the Dead), the almost guaranteed-to-be-controversial The Carpenter's Son, and an upcoming documentary about the one and only, Martin Scorsese. The Simpsons 2 is coming, but even the hardcore fans seem less than enthused. Speaking of being less than enthused, Microsoft alienated many Xbox owners by increasing the price of Game Pass Ultimate. On the other hand, EA stockholders must be thrilled as the company was sold for a staggering $55 billion! All this, plus the evolving landscape of AI continues to create issues in many circles of the entertainment industry.Powered by RedCircle@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

In this week's episode of China Insider, Miles Yu provides a summary of Xi Jinping's recent trip to Xinjiang to commemorate the seventieth anniversary of the region's founding, and the significance of this visit in contrast to Beijing's ongoing persecution of the Uyghur people. Next, Miles unpacks the latest developments within the CCP's influence operations and misinformation campaigns against Taiwan that aim to provoke instability and conflict between the DPP led executive and KMT controlled Legislative Yuan. Finally, Miles reviews President Trump's recent statements at the UN General Assembly regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and what this could mean for China and their perceived role in the conflict. China Insider is a weekly podcast project from Hudson Institute's China Center, hosted by China Center Director and Senior Fellow, Dr. Miles Yu, who provides weekly news that mainstream American outlets often miss, as well as in-depth commentary and analysis on the China challenge and the free world's future.
In this episode of Bandwagon Nerds, Patrick and Dave discuss the latest episode of Peacemaker. As suspected, Peacemaker's optimal Universe was anything but that, as we saw the introduction of Earth X into a multiverse that has already been one crazy surprise after another. How does this set the stage for what should be a wild final two Episodes of this second season? The guys also delve into the entertainment industry's response to current political events, the impact of Disney's decision to reinstate Jimmy Kimmel, and whether Apple made the right call by delaying The Savant. A quick visit to the trailer park reveals the latest offerings, including It: Welcome to Derry, Star Wars: Visions Vol. 3, and the guys discuss the teaser trailer for The Mandalorian & Grogu. Dave was less than enthralled with the first look at one of the most anticipated Star Wars films of recent years. Is he justified or just expecting too much too soon? The conversation shifts to wrestling and film crossovers, including the casting of Drew McIntyre in the Highlander reboot and the anticipated biopic about Randy Savage. All that plus what the guys are watching, as Dave waxes eloquent about the conclusion of season one of Alien: Earth.

The Nerds are back to break down the week in the Nerdosphere. It begins with a review of Episode 5, Season 2, of Peacemaker. Some major events took place in this Episode as Peacemaker has to pay for some of his prior sins, and he makes a huge decision that could have significant consequences for the DCU. A very stripped-down trailer park looks at True Hauntings and the Jack Black led remake of Anaconda. In other news, The Muppet Show is, in fact, making a comeback, Martin Scorsese opts to try his hand at a ghost story, and is Netflix angling to purchase Warner Bros? The guys also pay their respect to the legendary Robert Redford. All that, plus the guys take a look at the Jimmy Kimmel controversy and why the issues in play run a lot deeper than a show being canceled.Powered by RedCircle@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

The Nerds are back, and none of them are particularly enthralled with what they saw from the brief teaser trailer for The Witcher, Season 4, or, more specifically, one aspect of it. Meanwhile, Episode 4 of Season 2 of Peacemaker continues to set the stage for a dramatic showdown across dimensions. Can Peacemaker find peace in any of them? What is Rick Flag Sr.'s endgame? And portable pocket dimensions? Things are getting weird for our favorite misfit heroes. A more formal trip to the Trailer Park takes a look at trailers for Dust Bunny, The Rip, Wake Up Dead Man, and a brief little teaser for Super Mario Galaxy. In News Around the Nerdosphere, the guys take a look at the changing roster for SNL's 51st season, some huge news about Man of Tomorrow, an injury to Henry Cavill that will likely push Highlander to 2027, and could Paramount be on the verge of another major acquisition in the form of WB-Discovery?

At long last, Patrick returns to the show. Suffice it to say, but Patrick does not share Rey's opinion about Peacemaker. Meanwhile, Episode 3 of Season 2 of Peacemaker was all about the best dimension ever. Chris spends a lot of time in this Episode learning that the grass might actually be greener...but is everything as glorious as it would appear to be? The guys break things down for you as we near the halfway point of Season 2. Meanwhile, the Trailer Park takes a look at more creepy stuff with the latest trailers for Black Phone 2 , 28 Years Later, Bone Temple, and Marvel Zombies. The fellas also discuss the upcoming Amazon Prime documentary covering the life of John Candy and how long the guys think it will take for the movie to wreck them absolutely. The guys also get you caught up on the biggest stories in the Nerdosphere, including another studio suing Mid-Journey, a possible Muppet Show reunion, a well-known animation studio going by the wayside, a new Lara Croft, and whether we should be concerned over a delay being announced for Jordan Peele's follow-up to Nope. Lastly....the guys have been saying #2027 for 5 years now, and some announcements this week have 2027 shaping up to be absolutely massive for the Nerdosphere. Curious?

Episode 2 of Season 2 of Peacemaker was a wild affair across the board. Leading the way was Tim Meadows, being politically incorrect in so many hilarious ways that it was hard to keep track. There was a lot to unpack in this week's Episode, including doppelganger dismemberment, rooftop parties with copious amounts of Bud Light, bird blindness, and a bald eagle wrecking everyone and leaving. The guys break it all down. Is Rey feeling better about things this week? You will have to tune in to find out. Meanwhile, the Trailer Park takes a look at some trailers that snuck by us this past week, including the latest for The Lowdown, Wayward, The Savant, and The Woman in Cabin 10. The guys also get you caught up on the biggest stories in the Nerdosphere, including a delay for Mortal Kombat II, news about Goonies II, trying to figure out what is wrong with Season 51 of SNL, and a quick recap of some announcements that came out of Destination D23.Powered by RedCircle@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.
