The Nerd Out episodes

  • Ep 114 – Survival Guide

    Recorded via Skype = Palm Springs + Southern OR on 3.20.20

    It’s Week 2 of the LOCKDOWN…which is nerds’ time to shine (let’s face it). Documentary suggestions, more media ideas, and how to stay sane with our new segment “Quarantine Shit”!

    You oughta be meditating. Ritzy recommends 5 Minute Meditation, Practicing Human, Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (we love Brene!). As Brene reminds us:

    GET BUSY LIVING OR GET BUSY DYING

    Kanopy is a great place for free media, especially for kids! Libby is a great way to access Library books…also free!

    You should be reading some of our faves: Dealing in Dreams by our friend Lilliam Rivera, Becoming by Michelle Obama, the Beastie Boys Book (check out the audio version!), and Tough Shit: Life Advice from a Fat Lazy Slob Who Did Good by Kevin Smith. And Angelenos should check out Skylight Books – you can still support them online!

    And finally, we ALL need some tunes right now. Check out Ritzy’s Dance Off Pants Off playlist on Spotify and Orion Sun.
