Welcome to what we THOUGHT was the 50th episode of the NOGcast. In reality it's only episode 49. But that's exactly what we end up talking about... sometimes we try to do things before the thing is ready to be done which usually doesn't work out for anyone.

We also announce the winner of our NOGcast rap battle, prepare for a real life hurricane, and mourn the end of #StevenSeason.

This week we talk about the great shows & games that were taken away before their time, and how God extends grace that brings our hearts back from the brink of cancellation.

Plus first impressions on Netflix's Defenders, the Nerd of Godcast Rap Battle and a special Christian Nerd podcast cameo.

WELL, WE TRIED...

We set out to do a live, video episode. We wanted to do everything in real time, no edits, nothing cut or added... but something went wrong and all we have left is the audio version and a bunch of good intentions. That's what happens when you live without a safety net.

Without advance warning Steve-O is given the captain's chair for this episode, but with no time to prepare or plan, leading the show can be a challenge... We'll talk Comic-Con, take a spiritual gifts test, and discuss living life by faith, vision and intentionality to reach God's best for us.

This episode we are on location at Florida Youth Camp. We spend the whole time talking about all the things we remember from our childhood in the 80s and early 90s, and then take a look back at church culture THEN vs NOW, plus BEST THING EVER, OBAMA LLAMA, and our reviews of SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING. Tony welcomes a more seasoned crew in Pastors Justin Stewart, Rodney and Lindsey Cannon, Jason and Dani Wright and Lloyd Smith.

Join us as we step into virtual worlds and imagine what it would be like to live in Skyrim, Star Wars and more. Plus we welcome some special guests.

Trust can be hard to gain and easy to lose. This episode we'll talk about trusting, being trusted, and wonder if, after seeing Wonder Woman, we can trust DC to make good movies now.

In honor of this being episode 42 (see The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) we're taking an episode to answer YOUR ultimate questions about life, the universe and everything.

On our Season Three premier we're talking about Love and marriage, from the standpoint of our top nerdy class couples to some of our ever lovin' favorites from sunday school.

Plus a celebrity couple name game, this season's Best Thing Ever, and find out how, with the touch of a button, you can win a Nerd of Godcast prize pack.

“I was thinking about how people seem to read the bible a lot more as they get older, and then it dawned on me—they’re cramming for their final exam.” -George Carlin

In our Season Two finale we discuss getting old and we quiz some awesome senior adults on their nerd knowledge. This is 40.
