Nerdy Show

On January 31st we lost a friend, brother, /co/merade, brony, poképhile, and so so so much more – the one, the only, the legendary: Triforce Mike. The night of Sunday, the 29th, he was hit by a car while biking. The crash put him into an unconsciousness from which he’d never wake. On the 30th, hundreds of people came to his hospital room to pay respects, friends and family arrived from out of town...

Winter holiday specials are a time honored tradition. Some are simply strange attempts to cash in on the holiday season (*cough*StarWars*cough*), others are brilliant, creative outpourings in the name of warmth, family, togetherness, and the hope that maybe, just maybe we can make the world a better place. We’d like to think this is the latter, but we’re willing to bet you’ll disagree. Whatever yo...

Nerdy Show Prime is our on-going series of stand-0ut, single-subject episodes existing beyond our regularly scheduled programming. We’re pleased to bring you the first in a multi-part Prime series on the topic of “fan films”. We've entered in a bold new era of fan films, one where creating a full-scale film in someone else’s universe is an accepted thing, what’s more we’re seeing more and more fan...

Part 2 of our Nerdy Show Prime 2-part feature on VOICE ACTING! When it comes to animation – voice actors define a character. Sure, there’s the writing and the animation, but it’s the voice that really sells the character. What would the animated characters be without their iconic voices bringing each of those characters to life? What’s the difference between a good anime dub and a bad one? It’s th...

When it comes to animation – voice actors define a character. Sure, there’s the writing and the animation, but it’s the voice that really sells the character. What would the Looney Tunes be without their iconic voices bringing each of those characters to life? What’s the difference between a good anime dub and a bad one? It’s the voices. As nerds we’ve created something of a fandom surrounding voi...

We’ve got a treat for the real Poké-maniacs in the audience. Triforce Mike has an important message about just how much insane work goes into Pokémon breeding, his quest for a perfect Teddiursa, and why he feels IV training shouldn’t be viewed as cheating. It’s a rant so expansive it had to be given it’s own cartridge. Ladies and gentlemen: Pokésode Tweed! Tracks: On the Origin of t...

At long last… You knew this day was coming. A new Pokémon game without a corresponding Nerdy Show is an unnatural thing. It’s like a sunrise without a Moltres or a derp without a Bidoof. Besides, everyone knows that Triforce Mike is a first class Poképhile. He has to go door-to-door and everything! This is like AA for him. He needs this. So embark with us on an adventure i...

Nothing could have prepared us for this… This is both the first episode of Nerdy Show Prime and an unparalleled document of the unusual. Nerdy Show Prime is a new brand of monthly episode dedicated to big topics that take an entire full-length show to discuss. However, we’d pushed aside our originally intended topic to tackle a more pressing matter… the disappearance of our good friend, Dean Walla...

My fellow Nerds, a crisis is upon us. As some of you may have heard, a recent high court ruling in the UK has greatly jeopardized the future of the Chiptunes movement. The hardware integral to creating music from current and retro gaming systems is now illegal. This aggression will not stand, man – and we won’t sit by idly while our bothers and sister across the pond cannot pick up their Gameboys...

Originally published June 2010.As you’ve no doubt gathered from our recent episodes, we’re in love with the X-Box game, Alan Wake and its live action prequel, Bright Falls. But alongside our excitement for this new game is our love for one of Wake‘s primary influences: David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the monumental television series and Nerdy Show h...

In this week’s action packed episode of Nerdy Show , we have a very science-heavy theme, surrounding SPACE!! IRONY!!!* We have our good pal Pixelh8 coming back on the show to discuss his upcoming performance this weekend where he will be performing at the British Institute of Astronomy at Cambridge University for the Science Fair. His performance relies heavily on the barely noticeable sounds of t...

Last year we celebrated our love of obscure video games and kicked off our Tetris Rap Attack competition - in THIS episode we reveal the winners! This humble competition asked fans to remix the music of hidden SNES gem, Tetris Attack (aka Panel De Pon ) and the winners would be selected by rappers Astronautalis, Masurao of Krondor Krew, and MC Cool Whip to rap over them. In this episode, we're joi...

Celebrating the chiptunes genre/movement (whichever you prefer to call it), the Nerdy Show team invites British chiptunes maestro, Pixelh8 , on the show to give us his take on it. We also have the amazing return of the incomparable Brian Clevinger! We missed him so much!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

At last! Galdap has pulled a fragment from Nerdy Show’s lost season from the void – and none too soon! Just in time for their April 19th performance in Orlando, and subsequent return to Nerdy Show we’re proud to present to you Nerdy Show ’s first interview with the Protomen . This interview is an excerpt from the June 18th episode called “The Mega Show” , which celebrated everyone’s favo...

This unnamed episode from February 11th, 2009 is our earliest recording; pulled from the aether by arcane magicks. Cap, Mike, and Hex’s first show together is lost to time – never recorded – and this episode is possibly the second, third, or even fourth Nerdy Show recording. Before this, Aaron had been co-hosting a show called Talk Nerdy to Me on WPRK, a college radio station in Winter P...
