We also revisit a few salient topics this week.  Art tries desperately to put his profanity laden tirade from last week’s show into some sort of meaningful perspective, while Crashboy speculates on the possibility that our poll might very well have been hijacked by the good folks at the Parents’ Television Council.  And if that wasn’t enough, Mark Ryder of vajazzleville.com drops by the Flimm Building to drop off a few DIY kits for our listeners.

Plus, the switch to Google Chrome, the story behind Saddam’s sex tape, and what you can tell your spouse when the term “wild Asian ass” comes up in your search history.  All that and more on British Petroleum’s favorite podcast, Lesser Nerds.

Then, it’s time to scratch our heads at the continuing bad behavior by one of our heretofore fave companies, Apple.  It seems the cops who busted down the door of the lost iPhone blogger were working at Apple’s behest. (In related news, cigarettes cause cancer, and Ricky Martin is gay.)

Following up on last week’s discussion, the nerds look at a site that playfully tells you how crappy your Facebook privacy setting are, and take the social network to task over their pathetic new security features.

And if that wasn’t enough, Art rails yet again about our culture of fear, as Crashboy brings us up to date on how people could actually hack your car. (and why they would even want to)  All that, plus our Geek Dad book winners,  why ICBMs have to fly so damned high, and in a listener suggested vajazzling update, the nerds scale the heights of awkwardness with a discussion of kagel.  All on this week’s edition of Lesser Nerds.

And that’s when things start to get a bit creepy… Crashboy introduces us to the Florida airport security worker who took a riot baton to his co workers after they made fun of his … riot baton.  Then Art takes us into the depths of the interweb to view the dubious offerings at “Crabrevenge“.  And if that wasn’t enough, both the nerds get the willies at the latest offering on ThinkGeek, the “Tell Me Your Secrets” Bear.

To make up for the creepiness, we look at Cupidtino, the new dating site for Mac heads, and marvel at the creator of a YouTube baby announcement video, who somehow managed to sneak away from his video editing software just long enough to create a few kids.

Plus, why you should quit Facebook, real life porn parodies, why Gilligan’s Island may not be as shallow as you thought, and what exactly is the beef train? (no, it’s not that).  All that and more on the official podcast of ROFLCon, Lesser Nerds.

Who the hell is buying floppy disks these days?  Apparently enough to keep them thriving… in spite of the fact the nerds now use them as sassy coasters.

Is social networking making our kids anti social?  We pose that question to Wired Magazine’s Ken Denmead, who feels that (in the words of The Who), the kids are alright.

Does Facebook big cheese Mark Zuckerberg believe in privacy? Well, according to one of his colleagues in the Twitterverse… not so much.

Why does Roger Ebert hate 3D so much?  Turns out the Nerds’ favorite film critic thinks two dimensions is fine, thank you very much.

Did homosapiens and neanderthals ever get… busy?  The answer may surprise you (and kinda gross you out)

What would a REAL first person shooter POV look like?  Some obliging Dutch soldiers give us the answer by storming a hijacked ship with HD camcorders strapped to their heads.

Plus, what are the craziest things you can buy on the internet?  Wherefore CNN?  And we answer the question left hanging from last week’s show.. “Who won the damned Chuck Norris books!?”  All  that and more, on the only podcast allowed in Vatican City…. Lesser Nerds.

And if iPads aren’t up your alley, maybe you’d like to know what former employees of super secretive Area 51 are saying, now that their 50 years of secrecy are up.  Or perhaps you’d like to know the latest disturbing trend in suicide bombing? Hint — if Pamela Anderson is sitting beside you on a plane… be very afraid.

Art was right — it turns out the 3D revolution might just be driven by porn after all.  We look at that, as well as the teenager who got a very public and jaw-dropping revenge on his sister for ratting-out his secret stash of beer.

Plus, Lesser Nerds updates on vajazzling, California’s pot law, and the winners of our Kill Shakespeare contest.  All on this week’s jam packed St. Leocadia edition of Lesser Nerds.

The subsequent discussion shows Art’s ignorance, although he’s not dumb enough to have any interest in the stupidly named “Tiger Text”, an app for cheating spouses.

By the way, if you actually read this write up every week, it may be a sign you are addicted to the internet.  Good thing the medical community is now actually considering making your compunction an actual disease!  Too late for the winner of Apple’s billionth download contest however, who actually got a congrats call from Steve Jobs….. and didn’t believe it!

The nerds also find themselves this week with a bit of an Olympic hangover.  And what better way to cure it than with… pole dancing??  We also look at the time frame for NASA to cross James Cameron with George Lucas … on the surface of the moon.  And speaking of Star Wars (have we mentioned Star Wars in the podcast before), seems the fightin’ Rebs at old Miss aren’t too fond of the possibility their new mascot might be Admiral Ackbar

And if all that wasn’t enough for one show…. Crashboy foams at the mouth over the upcoming Max Headroom DVD, plus we give you a vajazzling update.

Why? Because we care.

We look at the “Twoddler”, a stunning and promising new technology that will be obsolete by the time you read this. If so, it will join the list of everyday things that have become extinct over the last decade.

Art Carlson confesses his desire to get an ultraviolet tattoo, while Crashboy reciprocates by confessing his crush on the girl who builds Millennium Falcon beds (the show’s not called “Lesser Nerds” for nothing).

We also look at rhinos, cougars and swine flu. Just in time for the holidays!
