Aim lock yourself in a room and listen as Holden goes through the entire history of cheating in video games and discusses the different kinds of cheating that happen. This one gets deep into tech talk but also the moral dilemma we all face when we ask if cheating is okay if it makes a game more fun (yes it is and yes it does) and when does it all go too far?Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

This week while Mike was off in Japan, Jake and Holden welcome Seena Ghaznavi (from LPN’s The Foreign Report) to talk about the waning era of the gadget!

Rick Moranis Canadian Badass
We're doing a good ol' fashioned deep dive on the man from the Great White North who made Hollywood his second city and blew up the box office! We go through Rick's early life, his meteoric rise and his powerful decision to walk away from it all, proving he was the goodhearted nerd we always cheered for. If it ever comes out that he's actually a terrible person we will have to immediately take this episode down because we shower him with praise as both a performer and a man. But I don't think he will, because he's Rick Moranis, the littlest giant of the silver screen.Want even more Nerd of Mouth? Support us on Patreon! www.patreon.com/nerdofmouth

The Trial of George RR Martin
Witness as a boy is born and uses fantasy to escape the reality of living in the foul wasteland that is Bayonne New Jersey. Young George RR Martin is the ultimate fanboy, transforms into the ultimate journeyman writer, and then after years of toiling in writers rooms and the clearance section of Waldenbooks creates a beloved book series! And with that series comes a fan base that is first Stark loving glad and eventually becomes Stark raving mad. Was that a lame sentence? Yes, but we met our deadline and published it anyway unlike some people!! Is it okay that the guy is too busy enjoying life and Elden Ring to return to Westeros or is he guilty of being like every dad in a 90s kid movie and making a promise he refuses to keep?Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

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.
