Prompted by photos Brian recently shared, which revealed the depth and dedication of his own early nerdiness, Barry, Dave and Tod delve into their own, not quite, secret origins. At what point did all of us cross over from simply liking a given thing, like Star Trek, or Batman, to engaging with it on an interactive, creative or otherwise expansive level? Buying the books, tracking down the merchandise, costuming, DYI, and seeking out like minded souls are all early manifestations of Nerddom. Unfortunately, there is no cure for this all to common affliction. Perhaps we could start a telethon? We could get Bill Shatner to host. And of course, while he's there, we would want to get a few more autographs.There's also the usual, Random, Topics, as well as a mixed bag of What's in the Box and What's on my Workbench projects. Thanks for listening!
