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...



A dining podcast with Doug Benson – perfect when he’s got the munchies.
This is fine but where’s Doug Loves Hallways?
Fun conversation between friends is always on the menu with @dougbenson. Where can we see the dinner photos
This is re-freakin-diculous. I’m sitting hear listening to people who aren’t food experts eat food that I can’t even see. Too funny
FUNNY, I loved it and share recipes
oh man I love the sign off! Overall the podcast is a little slow and sometimes the eating causes a bit of dead air. As for having guests it seems that your chef is sort of your guest so having an actual guest on for an interview or what not might detract from that. I’d definitely listen again once a month isn’t soon enough.
This was awesome. A little problem with hearing the chef’s voice on the beginning but it worked out in the end…. the month long wait will be agonizing though.
loved it! please please do more
more doug!!!
and weed food would be cool too
o and greg proops or other comedy guests
If anyone can co-opt the tag “enjoy your burrito” it’s a Benson podcast about food.
lets see some recipes
Karen fucking chewing her food while talking may have been unavoidable but it was INTENSELY ANNOYING AND DISGUSTING, not to mention this goddamned pretentious hipster soft-spoken chef with her fucking fake Italian accent pronunciations, don’t make me fucking gag.
Fuck you kevin, Fuck You!
Not as harsh as Kevin put it and realizing this is a podcast about eating food… When people typically have dinner conversation they will sometimes talk while chewing…they just won’t do it whisper close to your ear. Please consider at least chewing off mic if possible. Maybe you can use the guest chef interview as a buffer, while they talk you taste?
I have to agree. I love these two, but the squishy chewing and slurping noises made me turn it off. Maybe put the microphones further away from their mouths so it’s not right in our ears (some of us listen with headphones). I’ll check back next time to see if it’s been figured out.
This was a hell of a lot of fun. I love Doug Benson and this Karen Anderson seems pretty cool, too. I say keep ‘em coming.
Perfect. Pictures of the food right along with the post and podcast. I wish Mike and Tom Eat Snacks would do that.
Enjoyed the podcast. One suggestion: consider putting a mic on the chef (maybe you did as things progressed). I had a hard time hearing her at the beginning. Keep it up.
YO FUCK ALL THESE HATERS, I LOVE THE SOUND OF YOU CHEWING!
Please mic the chef.
I love uni!
I think you should do the cheese plate each time but you should tell what types (with links) that you will be tasting so we can try them with you.
Really enjoyed this. Liked the relaxed and intimate vibe between all three of them. Can’t wait to hear more.
Loved the show guys! Hope you keep ‘em coming!
I love it when Karen gives Doug shit about hit colon. Also, can you mic the cook?
You guys rule, guests would be a cool idea, @officialswag315 my twitter, the chef sounded like she knew what shes talkin about, sounded kinda nervous, but as a total overview keep up the awesome work with the cast.
i really dig the show and i am veg so i don’t even eat what you all were talking about. i say keep it up. having guests is a good idea after more episodes (maybe have a guest choose a place to eat?) the sign off killed me.
Not everyone is meant to have a podcast I guess. I love DB and would totally listen to this podcast if he got another cohost. Karen has one of the most annoying speaking voices I’ve ever heard. So when she starts interrupting Doug and stepping on his jokes with her mouth full, I just want to punch a baby. Unlistenable. Get a new cohost Doug.
