I've scheduled the next one to be on the 29th at 5:30pm EST. Let me know if we need to change the time.
We are reading Moon Knight vol. 1 by Warren Ellis and Declan Shalvey! One of my personal favorite comic book runs in recent years. The first issue might throw you off a bit, but every...
2015-08-23 22:59:25 +0000 UTC View PostSo I know we briefly discussed having the Moon Knight CBC tomorrow, but it totally slipped my mind. Is there any way we could push it back a week to either the 28th or 29th?

So, here's the first episode of that show. Enjoy!

You guys voted, and you wanted to see a video about who killed Batman's parents. Well, HERE IT IS!!!
It's also our first sponsored video, so please let me know what you think about all that. Keep in mind that it was my first time doing a sponsored thing where I had to stick to a script ...

It's just you and me today! Let's sit down and discuss the convoluted history about how NerdSync got started.
Listen to stories ranging from a middle school experience that made me dislike gamers, the many failed attempts at other podcasts and YouTube channels that came before, and the ...

I'm testing out REAL Origins as it's own show. First up, She-Hulk! Let me know what you guys think!

In case you haven't heard me talk about this before, NerdSync is (potentially) getting sponsors. I just wanted to clear the air about what that means and how that affects you. Give it a listen, and let me know if you have any questions in the comments!
She-Hulk has been breaking the fourth wall ever since John Byrne's Sensational She-Hulk run from the late 80s and early 90s. But what does it mean to break the fourth wall, and what can we learn from ancient philosopher Plato's allegory of the cave? Let's find out!

I'm trying to upload these earlier in the day, but we struggled a lot with this one. There's a whole section that has no pictures or visuals, so I hope I explain everything well. Anyway, enjoy!

We saw FOX's latest failure at a Fantastic Four film that foreshadows a familiarly fruitless franchise for Marvel's First Family that left us feeling fairly forlorn. But seriously, it wasn't good.
That being said, we're not here to hate on it for an hour of your life. Instead, we humbly...

I made a first pass at some logos for a few of the new (and some old) shows. Some still need a few tweaks, but I think they look neat!

A young fan named Cameron created this, and I thought it was pretty great! Perhaps this could be a thing that we upload to the channel? What do you guys think?

Here's another early look at a video that will be coming out tomorrow! It's also probably the weirdest video I've ever made. Enjoy!

The Fantastic Four famously gained extraordinary super powers from a space flight where they were hit with cosmic rays, but would this work in real life? Could cosmic rays actually alter your DNA causing you to acquire fantastic new abilities? Let's take a look at the science behind the origin of th...

It's a bit last minute, but here's this month's Comic Book Club event page. If you are a Patron that pledges $5 or more, you should be invited. Unfortunately, I don't have everyone's Google+ profile yet.

I was hoping to get this up sooner for you all, but it's still over 12 hours in advance. So that's something!
Anyway, this is a pretty science-heavy episode about the Fantastic Four. I hope you enjoy it!
And feel free to comment on the actual YouTube video so you can ma...

We went to VidCon, and it was a BLAST!!! We met up with some great friends, we saw some of our favorite YouTubers, Chris broke his shoulder, it was a magical time!

Greetings, new Patrons! Greetings, old Patrons! Greetings anyone else who is somehow reading this.

Hey, we should probably plan for this to be a thing soon. Sorry I basically missed this month. VidCon took a lot out of me. But that must means that we'll be doing two CBCs in August! The first one will be The Sandman: Preludes and Nocturnes. Here's the synopsis:
"In PRELUDES & NOCT...

It's time yet again to go into the comments and hear what you guys had to say about Jason Todd in Batman: Hush, Stan Lee quantum leaping through time, and Agent Coulson's nickname of Cheese. We're also discussing Lois Lane as a superhero, the Ant-Man movie, and public domain Superman comics. You guy...

This one was a bit of a hassle to research, and I still haven't wrapped my head around it all. Hopefully it makes sense, and is also entertaining. I think it's really interesting!
Enjoy, you wonderful nerds!

Remember when Marvel Studios had first announced that they were planning on making an Ant-Man movie? Remember how weird and kind of lame that sounded to most people? Well, Marvel's marketing of the film has been using some interesting psychological techniques to try and get you on board to watch thi...

Hank Pym was a founding member of the Avengers as the Marvel superhero, Ant-Man, but most fans might know him as the guy who beat his wife, Janet Van Dyne aka the Wasp. Behind the scenes, however, Ant-Man was never intended to become that abusive husband. That infamous moment in the character's hist...

Hello, wonderful Patrons! Here's another chance to watch a video before anyone else! It's this week's Tie-In video about the psychological marketing techniques of Marvel Studios' Ant-Man. Enjoy!

One of the most recurring debates between comics fans is what character is or isn't a shameless rip-off of another character. Whether it's Marvel vs. DC or vice versa, people can always find some way to attack or defend characters from either side. But honestly, does it even matter? Today, we're tak...

Here are the two thumbnails for next week's videos! As you can see, we'll be talking about some Ant-Man, both Hank and Scott. The CM video is probably easy to guess, but I'd be really impressed if you could guess the Tie-In topic.
