    Overrated Opinions

    We know, the title of this episode could be the title of every episode of every podcast ever. In this instance, however, we're specifically discussing things within nerdom and media, and whether or not we think they're overrated, underrated, or just plain rated. Give it a listen and reflect on how underrated these hosts are, and how cool and cute they must be in real life.

    Video Game Adaptations

    Video Game Adaptations

    You know that feeling where you're playing a video game and you think, "This should be a movie or a TV show"? So do we! We're talking about the video game franchises we'd like to see made into movie/TV franchises. Preferably by a studio that will push too much content, establish new lore that takes away from the feeling and intent of the original, and bleed it for every last cent in every imaginable market. What could go wrong?

    Our Favorite Comics

    Our Favorite Comics

    The reading kind, to be clear. Like with graphic novels and manga. Did you think we meant comedians? Is there an audience for that? Are you turned off to the episode now that it's about Batman instead of Seinfeld? Honestly if it gets us a few extra listens we'll pivot and become a comedy podcast—we're that insecure.

    GOAT Directors

    GOAT Directors

    Spielberg. Kubrick. Scorsese. These are the last names of thousands of people in America. They also happen to be the last names of some really good directors. But which director is the best ever? We're tackling this unanswerable question with unconventional methods and unconsistent criteria. Lights (just pretend), camera (we know, it's an audio format), action (its already recorded and edited)!

    Do You Feel A Draft?

    Do You Feel A Draft?

    That's right, we're drafting things! Some nerdy, some commonplace, all subjective. We've never argued more than this episode, and we're still arguing about it a week after recording. Our friendship has been shaken to its core, all for your entertainment. Enjoy!

    Looking Back at '23

    Looking Back at '23

    2023 came and went, and we tried/saw/read/played/consumed lots of new things (new to us, at least). Hear about which movie, TV show, video game, and book we each enjoyed the most this year. If you're lucky, you may even hear about what we're looking forward to in 2024 (luck has nothing to do with it, it's all there, just listen).

Hilarious!

Wow these dudes are funny! I'm not a huge nerd with superhero stuff but this got me way more interested! Can't wait for the next episode! Love the dynamic.

Love it

Never been really into Podcasts, but this is my first one really listening to and so far I’m loving it. So funny, makes a lot of good points, and consists of the same conversations that I have with my friends. Love it, keep it up!

Camilla Keon ,

One of my favorite podcasts!

You can count on every episode being amusing, well thought out and researched, and very amusing. The perfect contrast of in depth discussions regarding the podcast subject and funny anecdotes to balance it all out. I tell all my friends to listen, even if they aren’t well informed on the genres this podcast typically revolves around. I’m not a super nerd, but I learn so much and find myself delving into each episode. There’s something for everyone, and the humor keeps me coming back!
