Quick! Name six iconic movies that hit theaters in the year 1999.

Nothing?! Ok. We’ll do it for you:

  • The Matrix
  • The Blair Witch Project
  • Election
  • Boys Don’t Cry
  • 10 Things I Hate About You
  • Office Space

And the craziest thing is? That’s not even the half of it!

In honor of that crazy year in movies, Nerdette Recaps with Peter Sagal is back again, featuring recaps and analysis of the six films listed above (as well as updates on whatever Peter was doing 21 years ago). 

Will we have a Hook-esque bonus episode, too? The truth is: WE DON’T KNOW.

Take a listen to the trailer, and make sure to join Tricia, Greta and Peter for their first recap on Wednesday, Oct. 21! 

And don’t forget, we want to hear from you! Join the party and send us a voice recording about any of the movies we’re featuring. Just record yourself on your phone and send the audio file to nerdetterecaps@gmail.com. We record early on Mondays, so send them in on Fridays if you can!
