Nerd of Mouth

The hills are silent with the bloodcurdling sound of our voices as we talk about the origins, the fall, and resurgence of horror in video games. If you played it with the lights off and it wasn't Leisure Suit Larry chances are we give it it's due this episode, everything from Alien: Isolation to Zombies Ate My Neighbors. And Resident Evil. Lots of Resident Evil.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Aim lock yourself in a room and listen as Holden goes through the entire history of cheating in video games and discusses the different kinds of cheating that happen. This one gets deep into tech talk but also the moral dilemma we all face when we ask if cheating is okay if it makes a game more fun (yes it is and yes it does) and when does it all go too far?Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Anime is demon slaying the box office right now and all it had to do was…just be itself? Jake explains how we got to this golden moment and how to sustain it. This one’s got Nepalese politics, Japanese economics, and poop jokes for some reason. Well there’s a reason, you just have to listen. Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

This week while Mike was off in Japan, Jake and Holden welcome Seena Ghaznavi (from LPN’s The Foreign Report) to talk about the waning era of the gadget! From walkmans to calculator watches everything has been swallowed up by the smartphone, and we’re spreading the love for the PDAs, MP3 Players, Flip Phones, and point and shoot cameras that made us the nerds we are today!Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

We're doing a good ol' fashioned deep dive on the man from the Great White North who made Hollywood his second city and blew up the box office! We go through Rick's early life, his meteoric rise and his powerful decision to walk away from it all, proving he was the goodhearted nerd we always cheered for. If it ever comes out that he's actually a terrible person we will have to immediately take this episode down because we shower him with praise as both a performer and a man. But I don't think he will, because he's Rick Moranis, the littlest giant of the silver screen.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Witness as a boy is born and uses fantasy to escape the reality of living in the foul wasteland that is Bayonne New Jersey. Young George RR Martin is the ultimate fanboy, transforms into the ultimate journeyman writer, and then after years of toiling in writers rooms and the clearance section of Waldenbooks creates a beloved book series! And with that series comes a fan base that is first Stark loving glad and eventually becomes Stark raving mad. Was that a lame sentence? Yes, but we met our deadline and published it anyway unlike some people!! Is it okay that the guy is too busy enjoying life and Elden Ring to return to Westeros or is he guilty of being like every dad in a 90s kid movie and making a promise he refuses to keep?Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

In honor of Labor Day we’re laboring over the first 17 years of Marvel movies and ranking every Avenger from Ant Man to Quicksilver. Yes that Quicksilver. We could have done this all day but condensed it to one episode of bickering, quips, and camaraderie.

Greetings from Yancy Street, you podcast enjoying crum bums, we’re celebrating the Worlds Greatest Comics Magazine and a film franchise you clearly have gotten enough of, the Fantastic Four. Why do we love them, what makes them unique, and why is it harder to make a great movie than it is for Pedro Pascal to shave? Get on a rocket with your unqualified friends and strap in, just like a lap dance from the Thing, it’s gonna be a lumpy ride!Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

It’s our 25th episode spectacular but don’t worry, we do the same thing we do every episode, Pinky (narf!). In honor of the new season of King of the Hill which we all enjoyed, we’ve decided to talk about the recent trend of rebooted cartoons. Jake takes us on a tour of the Animaniacs, Tiny Toons, Beavis and Butthead, and because we’re pro pain and suffering, the Powerpuff Girls! Plus we pitch our own cartoon reboots (including one the industry has already said no to!)Want even more Nerd of Mouth?
