We Might Be Nerds

Jake checks the crew's knowledge (or lack thereof) regarding Olympic Games video games, we learn the story of a could-have-been analog HD standard, and discuss Microsoft's decision to NOT make Windows 10 the last Windows you'll ever need.

Microsoft resurrects a relic of the past, another tech relic finally passes on, pigs invade the language of children, and scientists shoot living things from a gun!

A single question turns into an hour long discussion on the inconsistencies, plot holes, and nonsense found in the pop fiction we all know and love. Such topics include unaccredited Pokemon gyms, what makes a toy live, and Ganon's lack of discretion. 

We get DEEP into the taste test/discussion of the original sandwich cookie Hydrox and its popular usurper Oreo, and move into a fun game of the wild and weird laws of US States.

We're back with a journey starting about a century back and then looking towards the future. We discuss Scottish maid astronomers, imposter cookies, pollutant-based inks, and robot muscles!

Due to a number of technical issues we've not been able to record this past month, so please enjoy this small collection of bits from our pre-show recordings as well as an outtake from Episode 13. We'll be back on Monday May 3 with a proper new episode.

Ever wondered what true silence sounds like? Microsoft has just the room for you! We talk anechoic chambers, the potential for another "Skypening", wordplay to avoid referencing Carpool-19, and cooking by impact.

Memories of an old Goosebumps PC game lead to looking at the history of Dreamworks, it's founding, and the original meaning of "getting Shreked". We also take a look at some unreleased tech from the early 90s that might have impacted the portable computing landscape had it launched.

Have you ever wondered if you could have a USB powered mini-fridge? Wondered what would happen if you stood upside down for days on end? Or maybe you've questioned an entrepreneur's real motivations? If so, join us as we dive into these topics along with a quick primer on what gives cryptocurrency its value.
