This week on Geek Girl Soup, our theme is Musicians Who Movie. (Yes, we’re verbing nouns again.) That is, musicians who got into acting. We picked two movies showcasing four musicians: “Palmer” with Justin Timberlake and “Training Day” with Macy Gray, Snoop Dogg, and Dr. Dre.

In this bonus podcast, Pat (@patman23) jumped into the Geeky soup to have a spoilery chat about Dune (the 2021 and 1984 films and the book).

Happy Halloween! As far as Cort is concerned, it’s the most wonderful time of the year. Not that she doesn’t watch horror films all… year… long!

This week we discuss “actors who music”—that is, actors who are also musicians. There are lots out there, so we sampled three: Awkwafina, Oscar Isaac, and Jada Pinkett Smith. We watched one episode from one show and listened to at least one song from each actor/musician.

It’s Teacher Appreciation Day (appreciate teachers every day, you). So, we watched some comedy, action, & drama centered around teachers. Thanks for all you do: AP Bio, The Substitute, Stand & Deliver, The Principal, Lean on Me, Dangerous Minds, Akeelah & the Bee.
