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.
Yay Danielle! It was almost a year ago that I was sitting at the bar with her talking about how amazing this show is, and now she’s on it! Hugs all around!
I’ve been waiting anxiously for this one.
Oh this is so awesome! I love Danielle. i’m super happy she’s on the show! Thanks you guys!
Hooray for sex positive podcasts and webcomics crossing over! I’m so excited about this episode
I actually use the Sensis condoms
I feel awkward now.
Wait, wait. Where’s the gif?
Read GWS this morning, saw the blurb about Sandra, and just thought. “Oh, that’s cool, I listen to that, too!”
Later, I’m here on the Nerdist site, looking at the picture from the latest SNS without reading anything and trying my damdest to figure out where I know the pretty girl in the picture from.
I’m an idiot sometimes.
I remember the concept being called NAT: Nose Avoidance Tilt in the british series coupling…
Awesome podcast. GWS continues to be amazing.
“. . . bi men are my unicorn. . .” Amen sister. Amen.
The first kiss protocol talk was great! I especially like the bit about other touching before the actual kiss.
My last boyfriend and I first kissed on our second date. I was complaining about my back being all sore, and he offered to do reiki, and then after he finished, when I thanked him I touched his leg (he was sitting behind me), and he held me and pulled me back and I leaned on him, and then we kissed.
So I’m a big fan of pre-kiss touching.
So I just tried to use your promo code at AdamandEve.com…
I got a mysterious insurance charge tacked on at check out when I used Paypal. So I called Customer Service to have it removed the unhelpful person I got at Customer Service told me they couldn’t do anything about it and tried to hang up on me.
When I called back a second time after seeing that I could not resolve that charge through Paypal as she had suggested the next person I got on the phone tried to tell me she couldn’t cancel my order because it had already shipped. I pointed out that I had placed the order literally 18 minutes before and she found a way to cancel it for me.
Awful first time experience with a company. I’ll be sticking with JT’s Stockroom, I’d suggest reaching out to them for promos.
Just wanted to add a follow up, after posting a comment on their facebook page, someone from Adam and Eve got in touch with me. They’ve really gone above and beyond to make up for the original hassle with the people on the phone.
What a brilliant conversation! Love “Girls with Slingshots”, love this podcast, and of course as a bi-nerd-guy in a poly triad? Totally great conversation to listen to. Please continue!
Oh, and I assure you bi-guys are NOT unicorns. Horny? Yes. Equine… Well, no. Not really. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go brush my long, shiny mane.
First of all- Thank you Danielle for leading me here!! Definitely listening to more of Sandra!!
The first kiss protocol conversation-especially the touching the other person before actually kissing- totally true for me! Most of the guys I’ve been interested in, I have known for a while or have been friends with before we actually did anything, so might be a bit different. But a tickle fight is almost always the best way to start a kiss for me- any tension of wanting to kiss just goes away and both people laugh and it gets you close and then all of a sudden you stop, your faces are right there and boom! Make-out.
Listening to the part of the podcast right now about first kisses…
Once took me something like two hours to kiss my date who was just sitting on some steps waiting patiently for me to get over my anxiety. Yes we went on to date for several months.
Also, there’s a song by the group Air Miami called “Pucker” that seems to be about a person’s interior dialog just before a first kiss. The same lyrics are simply repeated over and over, which is pretty realistic in my experience:
“I’ll Just sit up and pucker
I don’t know if I like her”
Love your show! Danielle was a great guest. Have her on again!
i object! not everyone leans right.. being left handed several times i have tried to go left, awkward moment.. and shift back right
