Nerd of Mouth

What do Sephiroth, Aunt May, the Daleks, and Leonardo the Ninja Turtle all have in common? They're now a part of the world of Magic: the Gathering which now with it's Secret Lairs and Universes Beyond sets have co opted a bunch of beloved IPs into the beloved card game to make a bunch of beloved money. Musician and Magic card expert Skulk the Hulking gives his thoughts on how this has been both good and bad for the community, how it affects things competitively and gives us his thoughts on where it goes next (Hint: Just more capitalism).

A boy named Jimmy studied internet algorithms instead of books and created a gigantic empire to become the most subscribed to YouTuber and is now a billionaire with multiple product lines and dealings with Saudi Arabia, cause hey why not?! Jake argues that he’s just a symptom of the world we live in and providing the entertainment we deserve while Mike thinks his popularity is bad for society, especially kids (Helen Lovejoy: Won’t someone think of the children?!) Holden is somewhere in the middle. You won’t get any money for listening to this whole episode, but hey you might learn something!

Special guest Joel Kim Booster (Scrubs, Fire Island, K Pop Demon Hunters!!) joins our hosts to review and rank the first arc of every Absolute DC book, the line of comics that’s been a critical and sales darling. Is beefy poor Batman better than a Wonder Woman raised in hell?!! And wait, what’s different about Flash now? And is it a good idea to read Absolute Martian Manhunter on drugs? (Spoiler Alert: No.)

Sonic refused to be contained in one episode very much like how continually refuses to be counted out. Holden runs the boys through all his failed video game comebacks (Especially 06)and talks about how and why new generation hitched their hearts to the furry blue speedster that always comes back to new frontiers. Oh and we roast Shadow, cause why not, it’s Shadow.

We try to go fast through the history of Sonic the Hedgehog but there's too many spikes of random information that pop up and get in our way. Our three egg men answer questions like how did Sonic come to be? How was he marketed differently? How does one character get two simultaneous bipolar cartoons? Why are his silly comics mired by years of lawsuits? We get knuckles deep in this one, covering everything in the first 15 years of the little blue guy before calling an audible and realizing ironic masterpieces like Sonic 06 and genuine delights like Sonic Frontiers will have to wait a week to get their proper due.
