  • Sorry, Internet Issues

    We will be taking a temporary hiatus from podcasting for this week and the 2 that follow, due to internet troubles and Jonah being on vacation. Sorry about that!

  • Jonah rambles on GPUs

    This week on the Rambling Nerds podcast, Cirdan has a strange tale to tell from the Second World War. Later, Jonah continues his computer talks, today focusing on GPUs. Note from Jonah: I ran out of time for the editing on this episode due to forces beyond my control, so I didn't get all the way through and Cirdan's words are cut off at the end in some parts. I apologize for the mishap, and I hope that you will still be able to enjoy the podcast.

    In this week's episode, the nerds take a look at CPUs, and discuss how they work. We also get to hear a strange tale, one of a military which has accidentally invaded its neighbor 5 times. (Excuse the title, Jonah requested it be in binary.)

  • Dungeoning and Dragoning... Part 2!

    In this week's very exciting episode, Jonah will teach us about some quantum
    weirdness, and will leave you either very interested, or VERY confused. Then, we
    take a second look at the misadventures of Reel, Frank, Shael, Erinol and The Cleric, in the continuation of our DnD campaign! Note from Jonah: I said some things about entropy that were very wrong, please ignore them.

  • Giant Robots and Gravitational Waves... What Could Go Wrong?

    In this week's episode, Cirdan tells us about the action packed, thrill-filled, high-octane FPS that is Titanfall 2, and why it deserves a bit more attention then it's getting. In the meantime, Jonah gives us our weekly dose of SCIENCE! (This time he teaches us about neutron stars, black holes, and gravitational waves.)

  • RIP Battlefront 2

    As Cirdan mentioned in the last episode, today he will be talking about the cancellation of Star Wars Battlefront 2, and getting mad at the developers for this, in his opinion, STUPID idea. But before we get to that, Jonah will teach us about general relativity.

  • Fast or slow, will we ever know?

    In this week's episode of Rambling Nerds, Jonah leaves us all thoroughly bamboozled by explaining to us that the faster we go, the slower we go? Cirdan doesn't understand. Neither will you. But, before we get to that, Cirdan wishes to ramble on about his favorite blasters from Star Wars, the DLT-19, and F-11D. Note from Jonah: I said some stuff that was incorrect about special relativity. If you are travelling at 90% of lightspeed, it will look to everyone else as if you are travelling at 90% of lightspeed. I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

  • Laws of Thermodynamics 2: Electric Boogaloo

    In this episode of Rambling Nerds, Jonah continues his explication of the laws of thermodynamics, this time talking about the 3rd law. Later, the nerds have a ton of trouble trying to summarize their D&D campaign, as they find it very difficult to stay on topic.

  • Deception and the Laws of Thermodynamics

    In the fourth episode of Rambling Nerds, Cirdan, being the war-history lover that he is, talks about Operation Fortitude, an allied deception in WWII. In the meantime, Jonah talks about the laws of thermodynamics, which gets Cirdan scared about the end of the world. Another VERY normal episode, yes yes.
