The answer was stunningly simple… a clip show!

After all, when people as disparate as Cyprian of IJustMadeLove.com or Tony Dyson, the creator of R2 D2 have dropped by the studio, it’s only right to share them at the end of the year.  2009 also found us talking to twitter sensation Roof Coffee Cup guy, (who almost got arrested for talking to us)  and Professor Jeff Eely who filled us in on the death of pinball.

As if that wasn’t enough, Paul Milo, author of “Your Flying Car Awaits” stopped in to tell us about being a space trucker.

What more could a person ask for this festive holiday season?!

Lesser Nerds Podcast yes 51:20 Requiem For A Rolodex http://www.lessernerds.com/2009/12/requiem-for-a-rolodex/ http://www.lessernerds.com/2009/12/requiem-for-a-rolodex/#comments Wed, 16 Dec 2009 02:04:31 +0000 Art Carlson http://www.lessernerds.com/?p=650 Today’s show finds the nerds asking what the heck is so special about the concept of a Google phone? After all, over the last 100 years, we’ve been promised several technologies that just never happened. Author Paul Milo drops by the Flimm Building to talk to the nerds about why he wanted to be a space trucker, as well as other topics from his new book, Your Flying Car Awaits.

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!
