Great podcast
Love the podcast — funny and relevant to today’s nerd culture! Topical discussion about video and board games that is fun to listen to even if you don’t play the game they are discussing 😇
Inspiring and Hilarious!
I stumbled upon Love Thy Nerd after looking for more podcast from organizations like Geeks Under Grace and it does not disappoint! More importantly it really is a funny and helpful podcast delving into nerdom and doing so for the glory of God. Awesome podcast that I truly do love, keep up the good work nerds.
