Wow this thing is still going?  Holy crap!  Episode #4: Black Panther is a little different from our regular format.  Co-host Seth has been crazy busy at work and became ill on top of it so Matt called in a favor from his buddy of many years Hoppy Mike to fill Seth’s massive shoes.  They discuss the blockbuster Black Panther and if it is really worth all the hype it is getting in the media and the box office.  Matt goes on a rant about Marvel comics and how the movies are not like the comics but they are but they aren’t.  Mike introduces himself and why he is qualified to be a Reel Film Nerds backup host.  Spoiler Alert this is the first time Hoppy has ever done a podcast!  Check out our new badass intro and outro by Ted Leonard over at Prescott Pro Sound.  Thanks Ted for lending your butter smooth vocals to our podcast!  Thank you again everyone for your continued support of our little venture, especially you Mom!
