Nerdy Show

When The Nerdy Show Network’s flagship podcast isn’t unloading on the latest geek news and happenings, we’re diving deep into the super-specific with listener-requested discussions and interviews.This time we're raising hell on the crime-ridden, neon-soaked streets of Neo-Gotham and discussing one of our favorite spins on the Batman mythos: Batman Beyond. This late-90s animated series spun out of the critically-acclaimed Batman the Animated Series, and surprised our younger selves with a wise-craking Batman in an even grimmer world.Join Cap, Doug, Briggs, La Valle, and Tony as we share our love for this schway TV series, its surprising origins, the movie adaptations that almost happened, DC's mishandling of the character in the comics, and even some hope for what's to come.What torrid hookups are happening in the Batmobile? How did Alfred die? All this and more thanks to Joshua Westphal – the Nerdy Show fan who requested this topic. #SchwayFor links and more info, head to the main episode page: http://nerdyshow.com/2016/04/nerdy-show-259-batman-beyond-schway

When The Nerdy Show Network’s flagship podcast isn't unloading on the latest geek news and happenings, we're diving deep into the super-specific with listener-requested discussions and interviews. This episode happens to be both of those things!This day marks the 15th anniversary of one of the most influential pieces of Internet literature from the early days of webcomics: 8-Bit Theater. A parody of all things beautiful and horrible about RPGs both on console and tabletop, this series chronicled the adventures of the so-called "Light Warriors" and trolled audiences for nine years with continual anti-climaxes. Not only is it a work of great geeky significance, it's also one near and dear to Nerdy Show's heart as it's the brainchild of one of our founding hosts: Brian Clevinger.Join Cap, Trench, Tony, Brandon as they dig up Brian's sordid, pixelated past. Learn how to quit college in style and stretch a dumb joke out for nearly a decade! Is Fighter a secret genius, or a massive tool? What's up with Black Mage's face? These questions might be answered! By listener request we also go deep into narrative RPG design theory and how the old ways of tabletop number crunching should give way to storytelling. Thanks to Kahalis, Barryeyi, and Joshua Westphal for the topics!For links and more info, head to the main episode page:http://nerdyshow.com/2016/03/nerdy-show-251-8-bit-theater-15th-anniversary-with-brian-clevinger
