As heard on 107.7 The End in Seattle, Gregr with his pals Branden and Ceej take a deeper, longer, dumber look into the things the make this world nerdier. From centaurs to AI, robot dogs to Godzilla, they’re rarely right, but ready to make you laugh through your anger. Go to nerdtalkplus.com and connect with them, leave a question, comment, or even a subject you’d like to hear them cover (poorly) on the show.

On a very mature episode of jk welcome to yet another incredibly juvenile episode where we do at least cover three actual Nerd Talk stories. Someone clean off the white board, we've gone zero days without "an incident." And we play another round of "Did Gerg Remember to Beep it?" Which is a very fun game where Gerg often loses. Good luck! Thanks fo…
