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...


I am glad to hear a bit of rap on today’s show and I can agree that Brother Ali is a great rapper. Also Cecil Otter, also from Doom Tree is a great rapper. Two of my favorites.
OMG!!! LOVE the Sonic Youth reference in the pic!!!! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Sonic Youth and Jawbreaker references in your pics?
Ok Jonah Ray, you win, I’ll listen to your podcast
Not really into P.O.S. Between Brother Ali and Aesop Rock, Rhymesayers has been putting out some great albums this year, but that new P.O.S is straight dog doo-doo.
John Ross Bowie sounds like Mark Adkins from Guttermouth.
This was the first Jonah Raydio i’ve listened to and I love it. Good job there buddy
He’s from coastal BC? No wonder he thinks Montreal gets cold!
welp, posted in the wrong one
Piling on to the Cradle of Fifth accent jokes, I saw Sepultura post-Max leaving (but pre-Igor leaving) and Derrick said at one point, “We are Sepultura from Brazil!” Dude, you’re Derrick from Cleveland. But you’re gigantic so ok.
