The More You Nerd Podcast

Myles is in much need of cheering up in the wake of the Silent Hills cancellation, so it's a good thing this week's challenge is to watch the pure enjoyment that is Rooster Teeth's phenomenal anime, RWBY.

The man known as a "game guru," "game god," or just ... "game designer," Mike Selinker returns to the show to discuss his new game on Kickstarter, Apocrypha ... eventually. Mike and the boys get caught in cavalcade of pop cultural tangents before staying the course to talk about his new tabletop RPG/card game hybrid that will assuredly involve cartoon dinosaurs learning valuable life lessons and NOT unspeakable horrors.

Before Myles delights in the tales of terrifying woe told by Drew and Patrick in their first experience with Amnesia, the boys take a step to defend the Batman v Superman trailer. In the midst of all this, Jason Anarchy, creator of the fantastic Drinking Quest, stops by to chat about his new tabletop RPG, Haiku Warrior, currently setting Kickstarter abuzz!

Since JJ Abrams and the good folks at Disney decided to show us a sneak peek at Star Wars: The Force Awakens, we too, thought it would be a fun idea to give you good people a teaser of our inevitable Star Wars: The Force Awakens episode coming this December as we all hail our new nerd overlord: BB8.

We got to sit down with one of the creators of Cards Against Humanity, Max Temkin, to talk about what the CAH crew are currently working on; the Science Pack of cards that is raising money for the Science Ambassador Scholarship to the board game show Tabletop Deathmatch. To Drew's delight we hold an in-depth Star Trek conversation. Plus, we had the audacity to challenge Max to a game of "Onion/NotTheOnion". Spoiler Warning: Max is good at games.

It's our 150th Episode and we have a very special guest to commemorate the event! Kelly Thompson, writer of IDW's hit relaunch of Jem and the Holograms as well as the upcoming OGN Heart in a Box for Dark Horse, joins the party to talk about her projects, the process of revitalizing an older property for a modern audience, and just general shenanigans. It was so nuts, Myles briefly became a robot!

As preparation for the upcoming Daredevil series on Netflix, The Nerds Without Fear read the seminal story, "Born Again." In the midst of the discussion, Eric Peterson drops by to talk about resurrecting the innovative PC classic, Descent!

The insanely talented writer, Alex de Campi, joined us this week! We picked her brain about her brilliant, off the wall crossover, Archie vs Predator, and dove down the rabbit hole comic book conversations tend to take us with one of the industry's sharpest talents.

During Talk Nerdy To Me, Myles goes over his positive experience with the iZombie premiere and his first impressions of the long awaited Final Fantasy XV demo before everyone gushes over their experience with the second iteration of the anime, Fullmetal Alchemist.

It's PAX (Penny Arcade Expo) Mania this week! We had a ball with the amazing creators of Dragoon, a table-top game taking Kickstarter and PAX East by storm! Nick Berbece, creator of the insanely fun and equally PAX-popular video game, Move or Die, joined our little party to talk about the progress of his game and give insights on how much fun the PAX experience is. We hope you have as much fun listening as we did talking to all the phenomenal creators!

This week we were forced say goodbye to the legendary Leonard Nimoy. As a pick-me-up to shake off the somber mood, the boys talk about one of their favorite new films, Big Hero 6!

Poor Steve Sunu. The warm, friendly and insightful Publicity Coordinator for Dark Horse Comics (what!?) graciously stopped by the week that BOTH a popular new Power Rangers fan film was released as well as news of Neil Blomkamp's official announcement to replace Alien 3?! Drew and Patrick try to keep Myles at bay as Steve tells us what Dark Horse has in store this year!

This week, Myles couldn't help but bring up the news that accomplished genre director Neil Blomkamp's Alien film is actually happening! Patrick and Drew threw him a bone so they could move on to talking about the pure fun of Atomic Robo.

Our friends Ashley V. Robinson and Jason Inman from The Red Shirt Diaries are back to update us on their current projects before diving whole hog into the universe defining movies DC as well as Spidey's new position at Marvel Studios. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! We also interview Leah Rifkin, executive producer and director of Revolution 10, a sci-fi drama viewers can control with their mind. WHA?!.

Live action Pac Man! Walter White! Liam Neeson hawking bad games! That's right! The boys tackle the entertainment aspect of this year's Super Bowl! Before delving into The Dresden Files for this week's challenge, they also discuss the merits of Marvel's new Daredevil trailer.
