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...



Hey Pete!
Great episode as usual! Love those Sklar bros!
Speaking of fellow Jews… April 7th, Passover, the one Jewish holiday Jews celebrate MORE than the High Holidays (Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur), and you choose to bring YMIW here to NYC on THAT night?! Why, Pete? Why is that night different from all other nights?
Good luck selling-out the show. Here in NYC. With no Jews. Man, wish I could’ve gone. Sheesh. You made it anti-Semitic, Pete. You made it anti-Semitic.

SHOOT! I NEED MY CHOSEN WEIRDOS AT THAT SHOW!! crap crap crap crap crap crap crap. C’mon GOYS. GET OUT TO NYC AND SUPPORT! i find it hard to believe that no one on my management or agency teams saw this problem (lots of jews. just so, so many jews).
for years i took this idea from khalil gibran to heart: that you should give as a fruit tree gives- totally indiscriminately and without expectation. you know what? fuck him. the only people who can successfully adhere to that premise are childless AND not me. oh, and pete- some of my best fun anymore is to visit the folks, take them out to dinner, and hit on the waitress with a relentless fury for the duration of the meal. it’s beautiful payback for both mom and dad- her enjoyment and his embarrassment clearly outpace (at least in my memory) their feelings when dad used to do it.
Funniest & most weird episode of the series. It helps when you have twins bring twice the funny.
Tour Dates!! Hittin’ da open robe with Pete Holmes!!! I’m the most smartest bird, yo! This has quickly become my favorite podcast! If only for the naked honesty!! Keep it Crispy!
Does Kumail seriously have a bit about ‘gangsta’ types keeping track of assists, like in the Ice Cube song? I have been making that joke since the song came out, and have even done it at open mikes a few times… Obviously I’ll stop now, but does someone have a link to Kumail doing this so I can see how close it is?
Randy and Jason are the sweetest. I’m so glad you had them on the show!
And, in response to the comment by pbnews, here is Kumail’s assists bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HDgULSW1T8
