Your weekly dose of nerdy chaos — straight from the Aussie nerdverse. 🎮🍿📺
We’re DJ and The Professor: lifelong geeks breaking down the week in movies, TV, gaming, and pop culture, with a healthy obsession for indie devs, comics, and creators who are shaping the future of fandom.
Every week, we serve up:
🎙️ Hot takes and deep dives on what’s blowing up (or bombing) in nerd culture.
🕹️ Spotlights on indie games, comics, and creators — real talk, straight from the people making the stuff we love.
🤓 Science and tech tangents, because being a nerd is more than just fandom — it’s curiosity, and we lean into it.
If you’re the friend who can’t stop ranting about patch notes, MCU theories, or why that side quest broke your heart, you’ve found your people. Pull up a chair, grab your headphones, and let’s get nerdy.
New episodes every week. Stay chaotic, stay curious.
