I’m your nerd host, Chris Hardwick
Nerdist is a place where we nerds come together and share the nerdery that we find. It's also my home to various elements of the Nerdist Empire. You might recognize me from TV. You don't realize that's where you know me from, but it is. You think you went to college with me or I look like your cousin's friend, but that is not the case. At one time or another you stumbled upon me on your moving picture box in such cerebral gems as MTV's "Singled Out" and Noam Chomsky's "Shipmates." and so much more...
Say hello to the contributors.
Why does Miss Piggy sound like a pre-surgery tranny?
I love your podcasts so much I wish I could enslave you into making a new one each day! That being said, the Muppets was the worst. They sound nothing like the Muppets I remember.
Mild disappointment aside, when are you going to have Wil Wheaton on?! I’m waiting!
The problem remains that Disney, when it bought the Muppets, immediately set about trying to find no-name replacements for all the voices, so they could fire the expensive ones.
I will never forgive Disney for the special feature on Season 2 when the Muppets pretend like they’ve forgotten who Jim Henson was.
What was the intro music? It’s chocolate for my ears.
Anamanaguchi! You can find them on itunes or at anamanaguchi.com.
Enjoy the ear chocolate!
Man, I hope the guacamole’s okay.
I was on the redline headed to work when Gonzo started talking about his daily routine and just went into a fit of public embarrassment. When he mentions falling out of a boat and calling for help my body decided to keel over despite my mind’s harsh protests.
I have a puppet ministryand I’m always trying to learn more.I do Birthday parties,church events, any special occasion. I love the muppets!
Sigh. This is the third podcast in a row that I can’t listen to. Yes, I realize they’re available on iTunes, but I don’t like iTunes, and I dont’ want to have to download it just to hear you guys. (However, I will eventually if it’s the only option. I’ll just grumble about it incessantly.)
Chris, you’re so hott!! I loved you on Jimmy Fallon!!! Your Kermit impression was the best! Are you single??!?
Some people here have no clue what they’re talking about.
That Disney understudy thing was held about 5 years ago.
Any replacement puppeteers for the Muppets have been performing those characters for 20, 15, or 10 years. They’re all people who have been with the Muppets for a long, long time.
Best. Intro. Ever. Followed by an episode I will definitely be listening to again.
I discovered this podcast about 3 weeks ago. This episode has put your existence on a whole different level. Thanks for doing what you do <3
How have I not heard this until now… May I suggest Muppeteers VS Nerdist Celebrity Bowling? Please?!
Hi! Remember when I was a kid, my best friend is a muppets
