Nerdy Show

It's with a heavy heart that we report that Space Ghost is no longer getting enough oxygen. On March 2nd, George Lowe, voice of Space Ghost, and all-around delightful weirdo, became a true ghost. He joins C. Martin Croker, voice of Zorak and Moltar in Valhalla. We never did any podcasts with either of them, but back in 2014 we recorded an episode of Nerdy Show Live with George Lowe where we read s...

His new record, Hard Reset , is out now, further new projects await, and we've du...

In this archival interview from 2018, Cat speaks with Talking Heads' David Byrne about the Criterion Collection re-release of his 1986 film, True Stories and the first ever edition of that film's complete soundtrack. The film was Byrne's directorial debut and as it plainly puts it right at the start is "about a bunch of people in Virgil, Texas." The film is part zany, slice of life comedy, part an...
