I told my grandma… she was confused

Great podcast. Might not be for grandmas as advertised. I came for the hot takes. I stayed for the baseball talk.

Fantastic Nerdy Podcast

This podcast is great! I love going through the GOT and Harry Potter series with y’all! The commentary is hilarious and insightful at times.

Y’all mentioned that you might go through Avatar: The Last Airbender, which I think you should do! This series (and the legend of Korra) is fantastic and I think it’d be fun to have discourse about it!

Thank you again for giving me entertaining podcasts to listen to during my runs!

My Nerd Safe Space

This podcast dives deep ;) into some of my favorite series and gets me thinking about the series in a more complex way. From Harry Potter, GOT and House of the Dragon, Zach and Scott provide hilarious commentary and new outlooks. If you don’t have IRL friends to nerd out with, this podcast is the next best thing. 10/10
