Nerd'ish Nerdy Nerd News
Nerd'ish Nerdy Nerd News (NNNN) explores, discusses, and nerd’splains some of the most interesting nerd topics of the day. The podcast consists of Fergal and Tim, (the weakest links by a country mile) who ask some seriously basic questions of co-hosts Kristian and Jess. Kristian (who is very nerdy) will actually help you understand things a little better while Jess (the TURBO NERD) has some real answers to fascinating topics of the day. This podcast is set in the town of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada and it is a hilarious take on the latest happenings in the nerd world. Mostly family-friendly and delightfully informative. Let's see what we will discover this week.
