Nick D – Erik & Steve & Movie Reviews, and My Dog Baxter

Nick welcomes movie critics Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy back to the podcast to recap the Chicago Critics Film Festival, including their thoughts on Power Ballad and Tuner. They also review several new releases, including Keke Palmer’s comedy I Love Boosters, the horror film Saccharine, and the latest Star Wars adventure, The Mandalorian and Grogu.

Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick for a conversation about some truly bad celebrity excuses before they test their knowledge of early 2000s comedy classics with a fun quiz. And if you know the name of Ron Burgundy’s dog, the title of this episode may already have given you a hint. [Ep 457]
