And which villain would absolutely ruin the vibe? 🍗 Fictional Feasts: From the Hogwarts Great Hall to the Avengers' Shawarma, we decide which pop-culture meal reigns supreme. Question of the Week: If you had to invite ONE villain to Thanksgiving dinner, who are you picking? (Vote in the Spotify Poll below! 👇)

Welcome back to Nerd N Out, the only podcast that makes you feel like you're living in a fever dream! This week, we're talking about how to get out of a tight spot—whether you're an indie game developer trying to break free from a soulless studio, a VTuber trying to get paid, or a movie studio trying to figure out if your film should go straight to streaming.

We n-n-n-nerd out on the shocking VTuber payment scandal that has the whole creator community on edge.

And of course, we're getting ready to nerd out... with zombies as we dive deep into the new Marvel Zombies TV show, breaking down what you need to know before you watch.
