The Nerds are Typing is a podcast where we dive deeper into our favorite fictional works and critically analyze characters through the lens of the Enneagram and MBTI. TNAT is hosted by Connie and Delia, sunshine/grumpy besties and MBTI and Enneagram nerds (respectively). This is the place to be for deep dive character discussions, analysis, and dragging as we use these two systems to break down fictional characters and from some of our favorite works.

Next week, in our season finale, we’ll be discussing Enneagram type 9 and MBTI ISFP & INFPs. Future seasons will focus on doing in-depth character analysis for some of our favorite fictional properties like Avatar the Last Airbender, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Disney, ASOIF/Game of Thrones, Doctor Who, Sailor Moon, the MCU, and so so so much more.
