Ohayou gozaimasu, bitches. We were joined this week by friend of the show and ninjaHELL’s own Christopher W. Reynolds (Kubu-kun) who took us on a trip through the wonderful world of Science Ninjas and tentacle pron known as “Anime(?)” What started out as fond ruminations on Fushigi Yûgi and Kimba the White Lion soon took that predictable detour through the gutters of Akihabara—loosen up those Naruto headbands, folks, ‘cause it’s gettin’ hot in here! Yaoi and Yuri and slash fiction, oh my! We then wrap things up with a heated argument that we all took far too seriously for far too long. “What is not as bad as you remember: “Super Mario Bros.: The Movie” or “Dragonballs: Evolution.” Then Mason fell asleep again… for FREE!

Hi, James Witley. We were down to two comedians for this week’s show and I really tried to make it work, but it turns out that Mason is a super jerk. Luckily that didn’t stop awesomes from happening! This is the very special news episode where we get to run down a half dozen of the hottest stories to cross our RSS feeds: keyboards in a Rockband game? Megan Fox replaced by attractive person? Free MacBook Pros available to the public? Shane yells at Mason for half an hour? Just when you think it couldn’t get any better we open up the vaults for a never-heard-before battle. “What is more awesomes: The Beatles’s ‘I Want to Hold Your Hand” or the PS2 phenomenon ICO.” I can’t wait. Can you? FREE!

Face front, true believers. The fail continues as we valiantly tried to make this one a focused movie nerd show. Then from out of nowhere Vanilla Ice popped into the fray and everything went crazy. Once again we startled the breadth of our shared history as we moved from the Violator to Terry Gilliam in less tangents than you would think.  We shared some stories from our home video purchasing pasts and spent a fair while shitting on a lot of people’s hard work. Heat is still awesome, btw. We then round out the show with the epic question that has led many of us to the drink. “What is more horrible: Matrix Reloaded or Metallica’s Reload.” Regardless of who wins, we lose. Oh, and did I mention it’s FREE!

Remember us? After an amazing show at the Alamo Drafthouse, the crew returned to the “studio” with the solitary goal of staying focused/sober long enough to record a podcast. Fail on both accounts. We wound up with a three hour train wreck of loose threads and nonsensical asides. What follows are some of our favorite bits along with several clips from the live show. And if our references to racist superheroes, Brittney Spears’s classic blues collection, and my own personal kryptonite don’t do it for you there is always the nerd battle. “What is more awesome: the  Halo Reach Beta or Duck Hunt?” Save your answer for the end of the podcast. (50/50 says your right) And yes, it’s still FREE!

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! Be forewarned: this special episode of the PodCore NerdCast is intended for those that have already viewed Iron Man 2 by whatever means necessary. Recorded mere minutes after a midnight premiere of the film, the Nerdcore Comedy Tour and friends assembled at the “studio” for an open discussion of our immediate reactions. Our favorite moments (many of which catsuit related) are shared and pontificated upon alongside our minor disappointments (none of which catsuit related).

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS SPOILCAST IF SUCH CANDOR OFFENDS YOU! I’M TOTALLY SERIOUS ABOUT THAT, FOLKS. TOTALLY.

Welcome, Virgins. The show kicks off a little slow as we try to muscle Alex off a brag-raid for his DSi-XL. (Animal Crossing, anyone?) Then it’s on to the good stuff as Shane tries to fit everything he knows about sports into a single sentence, Uncle Buck learns a little bit about the Facts of Life, the crew create an internet rumor about Leonard Cohen, and scrotums are threatened. We then fail in our goal to stay on topic as we ask, “What is more awesomes: Batman and the Outsiders or Ponyboy and the Outsiders?” All of this and the occasional reference to space dolphins for the low low price of FREE!

The podcast ZUNEcast has landed. Join us on this grand experiment we call a pilot. Thrill as we try to explain what “the Pokemons” are without a single Michael Vick reference. Then be prepared to continue thrilling for another twenty-or-so minutes as we answer the question that has weighed heavily upon the nerd zeitgeist for thirty years now. What is more awesomes: the Millennium Falcon or the Fantast-i-car? It’s a program full of excitement, wonder, and a fair bit of calling She-Hulk a slut. It can only get better from here, and did I mention it was FREE?
