‘King of the Nerds’ episode 5 podcast with Jessa: The rise of the Jack – Zack attack

Another week of “King of the Nerds” has come and gone, and with that, we have a variety of new subjects to discuss! Was Jack a spelling legend? How did Zack avoid the Nerd-Off? What in the world was with Brian’s chest hair? All of these are things that were discussed at length this time around with Matt Carter and Jessa.

This episode started with seven contestants, and over the course of the episode, the showdown commenced to see which six were going to be lucky enough to make it to the next round. This included a debate between “Star Wars” and “Star Trek,” some more publicity for a certain pizza company, and a spelling bee to end all spelling bees. If you catch the reference, this is one that even Akeelah would be terrified of.

New to the CarterMatt Podcast? What we do is sit down with either members of the CarterMatt team or friends of the site to discuss anything and everything related to TV. We’re coming off of our most popular podcast to date discussing the premiere of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” and coming early this week Matt and his fellow former “Beauty and the Geek” star Jason Prager are going to go through the remaining episodes of “True Detective” before we reach the finale. You can find all of our podcasts on the site here, or here if you want to grab them on iTunes.
