Simon Pegg is living every nerd's dream: He grew up watching Star Wars, Star Trekand horror movies, then started making movies of his own. He played Scotty in the new version of Star Trek and is starring in Steven Spielberg's latest, Paul.

We've invited Pegg to play a game called: "And he makes a poke check while head-deking in the crease!" Three questions about an obscure little game called "ice hockey."

Originally broadcast June 18, 2011.
