YOUR AD HERE!

Mar 16, 2010

This week, the nerds continue discussing the pressing issue of transit, such as why traveling at warp speed would probably kill you.  We also examine why stupid people, street racers, insurance companies, and a desperate guy in a Toyota all have lawmakers in the U.S.  pushing for mandatory black boxes in cars, (and why a greasy salesman soured Crashboy on the idea.)

Speaking of greasy salesmen, it turns out companies are bidding on advertising to YOU,.. in real time on the interweb!  Welcome to the brave new world of instant ads…  not quite like it was back in Mad Men times.  Good thing you can now get yourself a genuine limited edition Mad Men doll (Christina Hendricks actual measurements not included)

The Nerds wonder what Google thinks of Apple’s 120,000 iPad preorders. And remember a few weeks back when the nerds had a good chuckle at Amazon’s expense for suggesting Astro Glide lube to shoppers buying bulk communion wafers?  Turns out, that was just the tip of the iceberg!

Plus, Ask Art this week poses the age old question,… what’s better – real Star Wars, or Family Guy Star Wars?  The answer might surprise you.  And we give full props to the fine folks at edgypodcastreviews.com, who apparently thought we were kinda keen.  Plus why James Brown’s body is missing… all on the special St. Swithun’s Day edition of Lesser Nerds.

    Not smart or ass-y. But a very well produced podcast with two compelling voices and a nice balance of “I didn’t know that and *SNARF*”

    Hey, thanks, man. And all the best with Kill Shakespeare!
