This week on Nerds Against Normality, we dive head-first into the roaring seas of Russell Crowe’s epic historical adventure – Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World.   Before we even set sail, we kick things off with our “One Thing” segment: 🎬 Stacey braves the elements at an open-air cinema screening of The Goonies, 🔥 Harry heads to the big screen for the brand-new Demon Slayer movie, and 🎮 Ben dives into all the biggest reveals from the Tokyo Game Show.   Then it’s time to weigh anchor for one of the most underrated films of the 2000s — a brutal, brilliant look at life aboard a British warship during the Napoleonic Wars. We talk about how men were truly men back then (and even the boys were tougher than most of us today), how hard life really was at sea, and why Paul Bettany deserves way more love for his performance as Dr. Maturin.   Expect laughs, deep dives, and plenty of banter as we ask: was Master and Commander a cinematic masterpiece or just a glorified game of Battleship?   🎧 Available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
