All Nerd & Tie Network Podcasts

We make a bunch of podcasts at Nerd & Tie, we know it’s hard to keep up with all of them. So, with that in mind, we’ve decided to make a feed of all of them (well minus two)!

Grab your Bat’leth and prepare to experience bij as our Casual Heroes once more find themselves dealing with the Shakespearean Shouty Men of Space, the Klingons!

In their first episode ‘A Little Private War,’ we get very little Klingons and a lot more allegories for the Vietnam war as Kirk and McCoy get involved in shennanigans which have little to no purpose and then in ‘Sins of the Father,’ Picard and Worf get to do Space Opera intrigue on the Klingon homeworld while Wesley Crusher gets bullied by Tony Todd and we see the start of Worf’s ever continuing dissolusionment with the Klingon people and then finally, in ‘wej Duj,’ Boimler’s attempts to get a bridge buddy escalate into a web of lies while we see what Klingon and Vulcan Lower Deckers do on their own ships. Hey, is that T’Lynn? It doesn’t matter because you know how I told you to prepare to experience bij? EXPERIENCE BIJ!

EPISODES DISCUSSED: A Private Little War (10:31), Sins of the Father (42:37) and wej Duj (01:06:22)

TALKING POINTS INCLUDE: We’ve never done Hirogen episodes, Iron Lung, Kill James Bond, Miles goes on a rant about James Bond, it’s a metaphor for Vietnam, Gene Roddenberry and Chris Claremont’s fetish journals, it’s been a while since we’ve had an episode be both racist AND sexist, Kirk doesn’t do a Starfleet, Miles realises that in SF… you can just make shit up, Miles tries to summon the Candyman and we legitimately get to talk about Brighton, an appropriate Mighty Boosh reference, proper Space opera with cloaks and knives, Kurn bullies Wesley in a weird form of prison rules, Patrick Stewart glad to do some proper theatre shouty acting, Worf’s long life of moral compromises begins, Miles and Charlie are probably too British to watch ‘For All Mankind,’ we finally crack why we hate Ed Sheeran, Miles would rather be watching Cronernberg-pervefest Shivvers than listen to Sheeran at work Miles is definately the Garrett of his place of work, Rowan Atkinson would make an amazing Romulan and so much of space travel must just be allieviating boredom, even for Star Trek.
