=== Round 5 - Nerd Culture Club ===
(Contributed by Lex Friedman)
We’re going to mix something from the world of nerd culture with something from the world of popular music and meld those two together.
For example if we ask you for “ex-nazis making clones of Hitler that get around, get around, get around town” your answer would be The Beach Boys from Brazil.
