Nerd of Mouth
Hosted by The Last Podcast Network · EN
The Nerds got their Revenge, now what? That’s what comedians Holden McNeely, Mike Lawrence, and Jake Young are trying to figure out in the weekly combination tribunal/confessional “Nerd of Mouth.” Recorded from the dankest basement in the “Last Podcast on the Left” studios, we’re getting to the bottom of whether there’s more to life than any% WR videogame speedruns, limited edition action figures, and anime shows about ludicrously strong children beating each other up. Theme song by Grant Gordon, logo by Andy Kluthe.

Remembering When He-Man Had the Power
1w ago01:39:50Tap to summarizeFor about the majority of Reagan’s presidency He-Man was the master of the toy aisle. Concocted by Mattel, aided by the synergy of a cartoon, and ultimately undone by corporate greed and an underperforming movie (that one of our cohost loves) , take a journey with us to Eternia to see a musclebound hero who’s been killed and resurrected many times because you can’t keep a once successful IP down.

Transcribe →The Funny Pages: A Comedy Graveyard
2w ago01:13:40Tap to summarizeRemember when you’d get a newspaper to feel smart and informed and just go straight to the funny pages to gab with Garfield, chat with Cathy, and umm, see whatever the heck Family Circus was up to? We remember! Reading these informed our future tastes and helped evolve our sense of humor before life got too grim (and stopped being so Mother Goose). Jake takes us on a walk through the history of newspaper comic strips and we all namedrop a ton of favorites and some real forgettable crap. Yeah, there’s a very obvious reason these things died.

3w ago01:34:58Tap to summarizeEven a blind man can see that Daredevil has been one of the most consistently compelling heroes in the Marvel Universe despite going through more changes than the real life Hell’s Kitchen.

Transcribe →Tiers of Kung Lao: Ranking Mortal Kombat Fatalities.
May 1101:27:38Tap to summarizeThe boys head to the Outworld to rank every single fatality from the first two Mortal Kombat games in this spine ripping barnburner of an episode! We celebrate the truly gruesome and creative kills and uppercut ourselves in the face every time someone's head gets off in the second one. Some of these fatalities are iconic and still hold up and some just end with someone exploding in a pile of femurs. So many femurs. Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Transcribe →George Lucas and the Revenge of the Prequels
May 401:35:06Tap to summarizeNoooooooo!!! Actually ,yes., We're re-examining the Star Wars prequels with their racist portrayals, wooden dialogue, and still kinda badass lightsaber fights. If you hate these movies Holden is your guy. If you think they're both ambitious and prescient, then Jake is your guy. If you're caught in the middle and just want your friends to hug it out and stop fighting about Jar Jar then you'll agree with Mike. It's a fun time racing through this pod about pod racing. Some would certainly say more fun than the movies themselves. Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Transcribe →The Challenging Journey of Video Game Movie Adaptations: Annihilation
Apr 2701:39:27Tap to summarizeWe've talked about video games based on movies but this time we're going the other way and focusing on movies that are based on video games and why they usually suck. Holden guides through the dark ages of Mario and Street Fighter, the darker ages of anything Uwe Boll has done, the mostly forgettable 2010s (There was in fact no need for speed) and how a little electric Pokémon gave the genre the creative spark it desperately needed and how we're still benefiting from it. . I guarantee this will be the most memorable podcast of your life. For us, it is Monday. Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Transcribe →The Kevin Smith Episode
Apr 2001:44:15Tap to summarizeIn honor of 4/20 we're doing a movie length podcast blabbing about the man behind Silent Bob. Holden Mcneely (Who had that name before Chasing Amy came out!) guides us through his history, his filmography (Yes, all of it),, and oh yeah, Mike gives him some credit to the man behind the View Askewniverse for revitalizing the Marvel universe. Ultimately all three hosts lean on the side of celebrating a man who had the courage to bet on himself and his friends and make a thing and be a nerd ambassador at an important moment in our childhoods.. It's a lot to cram into one episode(yes we forgot He-man but will get to that soon!) but we try! Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Holden gives us the history of Dinniman and the series before we give our full thoughts on the first book and talk about the difficulties and rewards of crawling back into the dungeon that is reading an actual book.
