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...


This was an absolutely delightful show! I had a blast seeing everyone. Thank you, Pete, TJ, Doug, Mosha, Kyle, and Alex for bringing on the laughter and keeping it weird!
Haystack! Love Hayward. Pacific Seafood Buffet forever. Great great episode.
I am soooo damn happy this is up so soon!!!! I had a blast going to this and glad I got to back up Moshe about Hayward! Can’t wait to listen to this again!
Holy shit this was stupid. And I loved every second of it.
Liked how during your Bob Seger fuck song bit you said “this isn’t material”, when a few weeks ago you clearly said during an episode that you’re working on material about that very thing.
I feel like a dick for even bringing this up, I mean, who gives a shit?
Love you Pete!
One of the funniest episodes. I was exhausted at the end.

This episode made me more uncomfortable than Outside Lands.
“‘I get it, it’s a hologram…’ and she touched the devil’s face.” Katie! Haunted house! Amityville-style! Pre-show! Christmas riffs! North pole for cocoa! Free Podcast! JOY.
Ha ha, was that 5 minutes on Hayward? The Stack isn’t even that bad, they should’ve said EPA or Hunter’s Point.
I love the 1 on 1 but this was slow and methodical torture. It was like being at a diner with 3 guys who are hopped up on gin, speed and bitterness and talk over each other ripshit for 3 hours…..and your on the inside seat.
I would be mugging and mouthing like Al Jolson “mammy” to the people passing outside the window to the street where they walk and talk freely and thinking how many hits it would take with my cranium to break through leaving the guys thinking “what the fuck was his problem?
10 hits, 50 hits, 100? All would be a necessary alternative to the panic that ensues when you feel your inner troglodyte coming forth from your pit of your bowels. Love ya
I THINK THIS EPISODE BLEW OUT MY SPEAKERS
Here you go, Pete. Come with me to Oviedo.

I think we’ll all have to donate to help save Katie’s eardrums after this episode.
Which/whose podcast had the original Kamikaze Orgasm riff?
I must find it.
For the glory of the empire.
TJ Miller is awesome. “Keep it crunchy” hahahahahaha oh Teej. You da best.
Interview Katie! It’s time to hear from Blaster Girl!
That was horrible.
And I love everyone on there.
It must be an outlier.
Reset, reset.
So few gems between the shouting.
I found myself polite-smiling all the way through that.
Seeing how long you can yell peaked with Dumb and Dumber.
I’d love to hear the same guests one at a time. I’ll leave live gang-joking events for others.
Nice try, though.
Horace just wrote “Nice try, though”! Holy. Shit.
Great ep.
You said “Nice try, though.” but eariler you said ” that was horrible” how can it be both? Nice try, though.
Loved this episode, your live shows have been getting more and more delightful each time. I was dying when you all started shouting hysterically.
I swear, when the name “Hannibal” was first brought up, I thought I would hear all about “fava beans and a nice chianti.” I like what you guys did MUCH better.
Pete–please, for the love of god,back away from the mic when you: cackle, snicker, chortle, giggle, crow, roar, howl, guffaw, bay, clamor, holler, yell, screech, snort, bray, prattle, bark, shriek, bellow, vociferate, bawl, wail, yelp, cry out, ejaculate, squeal, titter, etc., etc., (and yes, I broke out the thesaurus though there truly aren’t enough words to encompass the pain of listening to a drunk Petey too close to the mic).
Other than that great show, thanks…
I prefer the sincerity of the one on ones vs live group shows, but this one had several dec momentz.
