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...


Woo! Go Seahawks!
Feast the bread! How cruel for a poor guy like me who decided to get braces in his 30s, and not back as a teenager. I love good bakery bread, and I can eat baguette if it’s fresh of the day. But no pumpernickel, no fig bread, no fougasse filled with olives, or all the other delicious hearty breads of my local artisan bakery. I’m down to mushy, sliced, industrial bread, because it stays soft for days. Oh well, I’ll can still enjoy croissants and chocolatines (or “pain au chocolat” for the parigots) once a week. Plus, the delightful lady behind the counter is named Antoinette, what more can you ask from a bakery? (Now before your mind pictures a little old lady from Provence, where her baker husband is from, I should mention she’s from Macau).
Everything about that Little Shop of Horrors audition story was great. Morgan’s advice to sing as loudly as possible? His being able to chose any role he wanted, choosing a werewolf? Awesome.
I just listened to the Morgan Walsh and Erinn Hayes podcasts back to back. I listen to a lot of podcasts, but yours is the one that always strikes an emotional chord. I did, indeed, listen to the Kristen Rutherford pcast, and I am truly sorry for your loss. You move me. Enough said. I said, Enough Said! Hearts and Thoughts!!
hey there… I just found your lovely podcast. Never saw Burning Love, but you guys keep talking about it. How can I watch it? Nowhere on the interwebs does it seem available. Got any secret hints or hidden passwords? Help! I feel like I’m missing out on what all the cool kids already know.
