A Bazooka? .... Okay.

Hello! Welcome to the Nerd Impact Podcast, where we discuss and dissect the books, comics, movies, TV shows, music and games, that have had an impact on us and our lives.

This Episode is focusing on the 2010 Comic book movie - Kickass. We go back ten years to a new upcoming Aaron Taylor-Johnson, A child Chloe Grace-Moretz and a Nic Cage being Nic Cage; starring in a real world hero movie, blending ultra violence and comedy. Does this movie hold up as well as it did when our younger selves adored the movie? Was this movie one of the first ultra-violent, slapstick comic book movies to show we can consume these types of movies pre-Deadpool? These are some of the questions we dive into. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Nerd Impact Podcast, where we discuss and dissect the books, comics, movies, TV shows, music and games, that have had an impact on us and our lives.

In this fifteenth episode, we use the fantastic Astartes short animation series, as a jumping off point for a wider discussion about the vast universe of Warhammer 40K. A very lore heavy episode, with fantastic discussion around our individual highlights of the grim-dark world of the 41st Millenium, truly a proper session of nerd talk!

After Sixteen Episodes, we decided we probably should should introduce ourselves (and reoccurring guests, Archie and Ben). We take a breather this episode and explain who we are, what started our love for nerdculture and when did it go from an interest to a passion.

We also look at the greater influences and what areas we all like to nerd out the most about. The impact is real this episode folks, please enjoy and hear how this podcast came to light!
