September 06, 2021 Ranking the best duels in Star Wars
Hello, and welcome to Episode 21 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
Today, we're going back to Star Wars, site of many an argument between Sean and Vib, to discuss a hopefully less controversial topic, asking what are the best duels across the Star Wars canon. We travel through time and space, jumping from the big screen to television, in search of the greatest lightsaber combat the world has ever known.
Next time, we're back on Hot Takes, as Sean gives the definitive explanation on why Warhammer Fantasy's End Times was a good thing.

August 30, 2021 Can Creative Assembly make a Total War: Lord of the Rings? - ft. Lionheartx10
Hello, and welcome to Episode 20 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.

This time, we're addressing Sean's view that there's perhaps something too pedestrian about Creative Assembly's Total War that he worries would ruin the Lord of the Rings' high fantasy. This statement is so outrageous that Vib brought in reinforcements in the shape of none other than one of YouTube and Twitch's finest TW content creators: Lionheartx10!

Next time, we revisit the galaxy far, far away and reminisce about our favourite duels in the Star Wars universe. Needless to say, there's no way we will disagree on any of this...

In the meantime, be sure to check out Lionheart here:

August 23, 2021 What caused the Horus Heresy?
Hello, and welcome to Episode 19 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
This time, we're leaping forwards in time 28,000 years, as we ask what caused the era defining Horus Heresy in Games Workshop's Warhammer 40k universe. Was it inevitable, or does it all boil down to "the Emperor was an idiot"?
Next time, we're excited to welcome our second ever guest to the show, when we look at Creative Assembly's Total War franchise and ask "where do they go from here"?

August 16, 2021 Does Serenity finish off Firefly?
Hello, and welcome to Episode 18 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
Today, we talk about our favourite space cowboys (or are they?) and ask if Serenity provides a good enough ending for the beloved (at least by us) show Firefly! Name a more outrageous cancellation, go on, we dare you!
Next time, we're back to the grimmest and darkest of worlds, providing the clear and concise commentary you've come to rely on, as we explain the causes of Warhammer 40,000's Horus Heresy.

August 09, 2021 The Lord Ruler: Misunderstood Hero or Maniacal Despot
Hello, and welcome to Episode 17 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
Today, we ask whether the Lord Ruler from Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn Era 1 trilogy is the villain he's presented as, or a tragically misunderstood hero with the best of intentions. Believe it or not, we end up agreeing. We know, it's scary, and we promise it won't happen again.
Next time, we're covering yet another new topic for us! We're heading to the world of Firefly, the beloved space romp featuring some of TV's most excellent characters, as we ask if Serenity ties up all the loose ends left after the devastating cancellation of the TV series.

August 02, 2021 TV shows in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
Hello, and welcome to Episode 16 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.

We are entering the world that's almost bigger than our own - the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we talk all things Loki. At least that's what we thought going into this, but regular listeners will know we tend to meander. So get ready for a bit of Loki and a whole lot of other (mainly MCU) things.

Next time, we're branching out to a whole other universe, never before covered by Expertise is Overrated, as we ask whether the Lord Ruler from Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series is a misguided hero, or just a maniacal despot. And no, the answer isn't just "both"

July 26, 2021 Top 10 Warriors in A Song of Ice and Fire
Hello, and welcome to Episode 15 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
We're back in Westeros this week, as Sean and Vib argue about who is the greatest warrior in GRRM's A Song of Ice and Fire. Is it Gregor Clegane? Jaime Lannister? Big man Bobby B? Bran...? No, it's not Bran. Definitely not Bran.
Next time, we're branching out to a whole other universe, namely the one that Marvel has made billions off of... That's right, we're talking MCU and somewhat focusing on Loki!

July 19, 2021 Is the Ministry of Magic in Harry Potter an insurgency?
Hello, and welcome to Episode 14 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
Today is a very special episode as we welcome Ellie, our first ever guest to the show! Sean has brought in reinforcements to back him up on his view that the Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter universe is an insurgency, wizards are ethically dubious (at best), and drones are apparently the answer. Oh, and both the hosts get told off for a change!
Next time, we list our personal top 10 warriors in George RR Martin's A Song Of Ice And Fire. Who will make the cut?

July 12, 2021 Who are the Chaos Gods?
Hello, and welcome to Episode 13 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
Today, we ask a critical question. Who, or what, are the Chaos gods from Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40,000. Does Khorne just want a hug? Is Nurgle really a good guy? And what on earth is going on with Khaine?
Next time, things get exciting as we welcome the first ever Expertise is Overrated guest! We'll be joined by Ellie to ask whether or not the Ministry of Magic is an insurgency. Which will be not at all a heated topic...

July 05, 2021 Hot Take: Lara Raith is a force for good in the Dresden Files
Hello, and welcome to Episode 12 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In this episode, it's Vib's turn to have the Hot Take, as he sits down to explain why Lara Raith, the de facto Queen of the White Court of Vampires in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, is a good person and not the monster we all think she is. It goes about as well as you're imagining. In fact, one has to wonder if Vib has been enthralled (and Sean does... frequently).
Next time, we're back to Games Workshop's Warhammer franchises, providing an Expertise is Overrated style clear and unambiguous explanation of the Chaos gods. Join us then for more nonsense.
