We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian.

The Salty Nerds talk about the Sylvester Stallone classic Over The Top (1987). A film about a man and his son who like to drive big rig trucks and break arms arm-wrestling.
When his ex-wife is in the hospital, truck driver Lincoln Hawk decides to pick up his estranged son from military school and try to reconnect after years of not caring. But jealous grandpa Robert Loggia isn't having any of that father-son bonding nonsense and sends goons to kidnap his grandson back!
Now, the only way Hawk can win back the love of his child is to become an arm wrestling champion! And he's about to go... OVER THE TOP!
