Rambling Nerds

 In this week's episode, Jonah introduces us to the EmDrive, a seemingly physics-defying thruster with the potential to revolutionize space travel as we know it. Before that, though, Cirdan gives his review of an old and somewhat forgotten masterpiece, the first-person shooter Insurgency.

This week on Rambling Nerds, Jonah will be telling us about Starlink Internet, a project that aims to get WI-FI on all parts of the earth through the use of low-orbit satellites. Then, Cirdan tells us about a very unique game that he loves, SCP: Secret Laboratory.

Yes, that's right folks, this week we have our first guest, Lukas! This means that this is our first ever episode to feature 3 topics, with Jonah talking about zero-gravity planes, Cirdan talking about Battlefront 2 Autoplayers, and Lukas talking about, you "guest" it (haha much laughter), the Chilean Civil War!

In this week's episode of Rambling Nerds, Jonah goes full photographer on us and explains the exposure triangle, which allows photographers to control the brightness of their photos! After we finish with that, Cirdan has a rather short, but still somewhat interesting talk about guerilla warfare, to help explain his topic from our previous episode.

No, folks, the title did not deceive you, since today's episode gets pretty wacky as we talk about the United States Navy Marine Mammal Program, which, obviously, leads to a discussion of murder dolphins because clearly, murder dolphins are a logical thing to be discussing. But first, we take a look at Hiroo Onada, the Japanese soldier who kept fighting 29 years after the end of WWII. We also had to record twice, because Jonah did a smart. Note from Jonah: It was OBS leave me alone :l

We hope you're ready, this weeks episode of Rambling Nerds is gonna be a
spicy... wait, no... a FIZZY one! Our first topic today is the time when PepsiCo
owned an ex-Soviet naval fleet. Afterwards, Jonah brings us on a computing
adventure with the second topic, BOINC (Berkely Open Infrastructure for Network
Computing)!

This week on Rambling Nerds, Jonah discusses the most efficient forms of travel; bikes and trains. But before this, Cirdan talks about two of his favorite things; MASSIVE SPACESHIPS and explosions, in the form of a fun little game known as Dreadnought.

This week, Jonah takes us a journey through physics by explaining Maxwell's Demon, a tiny little creature that completely ruins our understanding of everything. Then, we sit back and relax, hopefully confusion free, as Cirdan talks about the WWI shooter, Battlefield 1.

In Episode #15 of Rambling Nerds, Jonah will be talking about a really cool book series, The Belgariad, and why he would recommend we read it. We will also listen to Cirdan telling us about Star Wars Squadrons, an upcoming game. And of course, the day after the episode was recorded, more info came out, making some of what's in Cirdan's topic outdated. 

This week in Rambling Nerds, Jonah introduces us to permaculture. Additionally, we have Cirdan talking about one of his new favorite games to play, Pathway!
