The Nerdcast 183: Disney, Layoffs, & Mars Rovers

What was meant for 90 days, went 15 years.

The Nerdcast gives a quick shoutout to the little rover that could. Opportunity made it fifteen years but is now signing off. We’ve learned so much about the martian planet due to a machine that went miles when it was only expected to explore meters.

But the crew also had plenty else on the agenda, including a quick recap of the week prior, super commercials and all. The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part and Alita: Battle Angel are on the agenda but so are new video games, Activision/Blizzard layoffs, a trio of trailers, and much, much more.
