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...


Um, was Vanessa serious when she said that she was drinking during the Oscars? While pregnant?
Oh no… I somehow glossed right over the news at the beginning. I’m an ass. I’m so sorry, Vanessa.
@Gene, You glossed over THAT?! How does someone gloss over that?!
You know what, rather than follow your lead and rush to put on my judgement cap, I’ll just assume that you were thrown off by the incredible poise and good humor with which Vanessa was able to present herself while sharing a very emotional and vulnerable subject with her audience. It’s a credit to her as a person, and as a professional, and I hope that she has all of the support and understanding that she deserves. Not a lot of people can be funny at the best of times, much less when faced with a loss of this magnitude, and for that she deserves a lot of respect.
That hatred people have for Anne Hathaway? I have it for The Killing. Awful, awful show.
This PMC was a fun one!
I had to look up the video of the press junket with Erinn and Ken and the clueless interviewer and *viola*… success:

If you’re just interested in the question referred to in the podcast and their kneejerk reactions, queue it up to 2:15.
Um, I’m curious where they are shooting now? I listened to the Nerdist podcast with Zach Braff and I was under the impression, from what he said in the podcast, that the hospital they shot Scrubs in (which is the same hospital they shoot Children’s Hospital in) was tore down. Did it really get torn down, or was Zach misinformed? Or am I just making that up in my head?
