Things are getting NERDY on the latest episode of ERIC ROBERTS IS THE MAN! We’re joined by very special guest John Nicholson to look at an episode of the geeky cult TV show CHUCK guest-starring Dave Bautista, that guy from Avatar and ERIC ROBERTS. And, hey, do you like James Franco? Well, you get a double dose of FRANCO with 2017’s THE INSTITUTE, which he co-directed and stars in. And it blows! But if you like time period inaccurate pubes, a Keyser Soze hunchback and Eric Roberts getting sliced and diced by a pendulum.. You might dig it! All that

It's WONDERFUL! It's MARVELOUS! It's ERIC ROBERTS IS THE MAN, featuring special guest Will Slater (from the Exploding Helicopter blog/podcast) helping us fulfill our BLOOD OATH!

We follow that with an episode of OZ which tackles the difficult topic of capital punishment, but more importantly features Eric Roberts with a BEARD. IT'S ALL TOO MUCH. STOP READING AND START LISTENING.

Sporting some of the worst hair in the history of movies. Let's listen, ok?

First up is the gleefully bad-taste extravaganza CHILLERAMA, which briefly features ER as General Bukkake in the anthology segment WADZILLA. Then we slow things down a little to investigate the Hitchcockian pleasures(?) of star-studded borefest THE HOUSE ACROSS THE STREET. It's all here, and it's all spooky. ENJOY!
