Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries: Ep.7 Nicktoons Pt.1 Aug 05, 2020

Show notes

Hey kids! There's some strong language in this episode (and all our episodes), so please go watch She-ra instead. It's very good.

This week, we ask the hard-hitting question, was magic school bus on nickelodeon at one point? (It was).

But aside from that, Austin and Brenda discuss some of their favorite Nicktoons throughout the years. There are so many of them that we couldn't contain this all to one episode.

Nicktoons will return.

Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries: Ep.5 Tron, Not Just a Level in Kingdom Hearts Jul 22, 2020

Show notes

A shorter episode this week because Brenda had a meeting with her jobs counselor. The meeting didn't happen, but the episode is still short.

This week, Brenda surprises Austin with one of her niche interests, Disney's 1982 sci-fi flop. Tron. Learn the history of this film of firsts, why it failed, and what the future holds for the franchise. Also, go watch She-Ra on Netflix. Not sponsored. Watch Prop Culture too, if you have Disney +. Also not sponsored.

Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries: Ep.2 TMNT (The Movie, Cartoon and Comics!) Jul 01, 2020

Show notes

There are some small audio issues with this episode! Please bear with us.

This time on Secret Histories of Nerd Mysteries, Brenda gets the podcast's name wrong, not once, but twice, Austin brings Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to the table, and we have a lot of terrific turtle talk. Brenda barely knows what a turtle is. After being trapped inside for so long, it's so easy to forget.
