Episode 81
How else would the episode start than with a discussion of the most famous scholar in the Nuts’ field, the Breakdancer RayGun. As with most of the world, the Nuts are skeptical. Other embarrassing moments in the Olympics are discussed, as well as the Nuts’ talents in music (no correlation). The conversation ends with a discussion about the closing ceremony of the Olympics and the inclusion of artists like Kelly Clarkson and Celine Dion.
