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.
Excellent podcast! Most enjoyable.
@daveholmes american dub=shit. UK “dub”=gold. wish i could articulate more or give out a good reccomefndation how the fuck do you spell that word- anyways, check out folk like Mala, Anything on Hyperdub, rustie, benga, ikonika, …i dont think they count as dub per se, but thats where the overall influence came from. oh, and when i heard “you gotta tape me up” i couldnt laugh hard enough. that nigga got cadence
It would be wonderful if social media WAS a forum for open debate. It would be perfect if people thought about things they posted. Instead it has turned into a stream of consciousness thing. I think part of the problem is that people describe themselves as Republican or Democrat… you know? People shouldn’t describe themselves like that and they should be open to voting based on the particular issues of that time. It’s not like a sporting team you support unconditionally forever. Nor should it be religion or values that you inherit from your parents. Politics is real issues that affect real lives. I wish more people would think about that.
Can we get a list of all the recommendations?
