This week on Nerds Talking, our main topic is the shocking attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. On July 13, 2024, Trump, the Republican Party's presumptive nominee in the 2024 presidential election, was shot and wounded in his right ear while addressing a campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania. Who was behind this attack? What were their motives? Numerous theories abound, but we are committed to uncovering the truth and digging deep into the details. This incident could have drastically altered the course of the nation had the assassin succeeded.
In addition to this gripping main story, we cover some other notable, albeit less critical, topics. We discuss Michael Jackson's mother and her recent legal battle to claim royalties from the late singer's estate. Moreover, we review the supernatural horror film The Watchers. This 2024 American film, written and directed by Ishana Night Shyamalan in her directorial debut and produced by M. Night Shyamalan, is based on the 2022 novel by A. M. Shine. It stars Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Olwen Fouéré, and Oliver Finnegan. The story follows Mina, an American expatriate working in a pet shop in Galway, Ireland, who is haunted by the death of her mother, which she accidentally caused fifteen years earlier. Estranged from her twin sister Lucy, Mina embarks on a journey to deliver a golden conure parrot to a zoo near Belfast. When her car breaks down in a forest, she becomes stranded and meets an old woman named Madeline, along with two other occupants, Ciara and Daniel, in a bunker-like building called "The Coop." They soon discover they are being watched by mysterious entities known as "The Watchers" through a mirrored window every night.
Join us for an episode filled with in-depth analysis, thought-provoking discussion, and our honest review of The Watchers. Tune in to Nerds Talking for all this and more!
