Nerdy Show

Frag heads and nose nerds unite, and get a whiff of this totally ripe episode! We're joined by a former Nerdy Show host-turned-fragrance expert, Kristin West, aka Beauty Meow, who gives us the lowdown on the olfactory arts. Kristin doles out oud-les of stinky facts and answers our ignorant questions about the art of stank. Are you DTF? (Down to fragrance).

We also talk about the new RoboCop project in the works from Neill Blomkamp, a shocking comic book first, Coheed and Cambria and Chrono Trigger concerts, the fine art of cutting edge, prank-based television, and more!

"Podcasts rain from above!"

Live at North Carolina Comicon, Cap speaks with voice actor, Jen Cohn, voice of Overwatch's Pharah.

Learn about the strange circumstances of Cohn's initial Overwatch audition and the "Dark Pharah" that gave way to the "Captain America of Overwatch". She shares the surprising animation gig she'd love to have, how her journey into voice work got started, where Doom Fist's voice was found, and the question on every fan's mind: where the heck is Pharah's animated short?!

Maybe we have an oral fixation... because we just can't stop putting things in our mouths. Some of these things in our mouths include opinions about recent movies!

Join cap, boR, Brandon, and Trench as we share our thoughts on Solo: A Star Wars Story, Deadpool 2, and Avengers: Infinity War, including genuine opinions and also outright lies. But, dear friends, every nerd podcast and their mom's is talking about those tentpole geek features. Sure, you want to hear our informed and sarcastic opinions - we're zany! All that said though, we've got something those other shows don't have... and that's miracle berries.

Yup, we're back to our old tricks and shoving inappropriate things in our mouths. Like the vacuum cleaner said: it's a livin'!

Moogfest is a festival unlike any other. One part TED Talk, one part that record you discovered in college that blew your mind; the event’s dual focus of Future Thought and Future Sound has made it a beacon for discerning artists, festivalgoers... and Nerdy Show for six years running.

During the day, theatres, classrooms, and workspaces are filled with lectures and workshops led by artificial intelligence scientists, synthesizer engineers, musicians, and even galvanizing social figures like Chelsea Manning. By night, Durham, North Carolina, becomes a cyberpunk music festival – robot-accompanied bands, A Clockwork Orange-esque montages, stages resplendent in synths and patch cables. Join Cap, Jon, and Flame On!'s Bryan on their overnight drive back to Orlando, recounting their electrifying weekend at the nerdiest festival in the world.

It's no secret: Nerdy Show loves food. And we get up to some weird, weird adventures with both eating AND making food. So, when we got a listener request to talk about Iron Chef - naturally we wanted to do far more than talk about the beloved Japanese cooking contest... we wanted to actually do it. Unfortunately our eyes were bigger than our stomach.

Hear Cap, Jon, and Chrystal share plans for a "Adamantium Chef" a video series likely too crazy to see the light of day. Share some stories about Iron Chef and the anime it's influenced, and recount our latest food adventures.

Our present is the future - and the future is a beautiful pandemonium of science so surreal that even the strangest jokes can come true.

Like what, you ask? Tesla coils at a hockey game, vitamins for frogs flavored like bugs, swarms of drones foiling the FBI, squid beak meta-material being used to make bras. Which of those are real and which of those are Nerdy Show discussions gone awry? Find out when Cap, boR, Jon, and Nicky team up and go peculiar as they recount their latest adventures and the weird "sci" that's not necessarily "fi". boR tries out the HTC Vive Pro to see if it lives up to his superhuman eyeball needs and looses himself in Accounting +. Cap share's the journey so far with hormone replacement therapy and the power of choosing their own form.  The gang discusses Avengers Infinity War. Oh, and Scale Watchers - those guys show up too.
