  • Episode Seventy Three: Rainbow Six: Siege
    Aug 6 2022

    "Fookin' laser sights..."  

    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 our seventy third episode, we discuss the long running competitive shooter, Siege. With great potential to be an incredibly rewarding tactical team game, the experience of playing Siege is defined by intense highs and lows. A steep learning curve and little room for mechanical error due to a very low TTK, makes Siege difficult to intially get into. However, we here at the podcast think it is an incredibly satisfying game to invest time into.

  • Episode Seventy Two: Battle Royales
    Aug 2 2022

    "We got a number one Victory Royale 

    Yeah, Fortnite, we 'bout to get down (get down) 

    Ten kills on the board right now"  

    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 our seventy second episode, we discuss the absolute monolith that the battle royale gametype has become. From Fall Guys to Fortnite, we talk about the highs and lows involved in getting a Victory Royale, chicken dinners, a crown and becoming a Legend. While we have differing opinions on the future of battle royales, it is impossible to ignore their cultural influence.

  • Episode Seventy: Nine Inch Nails
    Jul 1 2022

    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 our seventieth episode, we take a look at the vast discography of Cleveland industrial rock heavyweights, Nine Inch Nails. With grimey themes of hedonism, sexuality and self-hatred, Trent Reznor's band evolved a distinct sound that Aidan adored as a high schooler. With classic bangers like Closer and some insane deeper cuts, Nine Inch Nails deserve all the respect they receive.

  • Episode Sixty Nine: Malazan: Memories of Ice
    Jun 24 2022

    "We humans do not understand compassion. In each moment of our lives, we betray it. Aye, we know of its worth, yet in knowing we then attach to it a value, we guard the giving of it, believing it must be earned, T’lan Imass. Compassion is priceless in the truest sense of the word. It must be given freely. In abundance..”  

    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 our sixty ninth episode, we discuss perhaps the most highly regarded entry in the Book of the Fallen. Detailing the war against the cruel yet powerful Pannion Domin and the forces controlling it, Memories of Ice has some of the very best moments of the series, with intense emotional highs and lows, coupled with an incredibly well-paced narrative with Erickson's grand sense of scale. A pretty obvious SPOILER WARNING for the events of the book and some of the later entries in the series.

  • Episode Sixty Eight: One Piece - Part 4
    Jun 22 2022

    'Weird stuff's out there! SUPER weird stuff is out there!'

    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 our sixty eighth episode, we return again to the whack world of One Piece, with the concluding moments of Enies Lobby and a discussion of a favourite arc of the podcast, Thriller Bark. We are reaching a point of the story that feels like peak One Piece. With some impactful moments and the great humour of Thriller Bark, One Piece's Paradise Saga is proving to be greatly enjoyable.
