Nerd of Mouth: Daily Summaries Delivered
by The Last Podcast Network
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.

That Episode Where We Just Talked About Isekai
Jake guides Holden and Mike through the magical world of Isekai, which in English means umm...well it means another world. That's often magical! People going to strange lands or dying for reasons that don't matter so they can be reincarnated into things that get progressively weirder. Why is this such a huge thing in Japanese culture and what examples are there from Western culture? We all go through a real journey in this one, and unlike a lot of isekai it actually does have a definitive ending.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

An Untitled Episode About the Art of Titles
As much as we don't want to, we do judge books by their covers and more importantly their titles. A good name can make or break a movie.. Holden takes us through the art of naming things, why some titles work and some don't and the boys get into some fun debates like defending "Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot" as a good name for a movie. Then Jake talks about the infinite amount of interchangeable mobile game titles like Kingdoms of Kingdoms and that one that everyone just calls PUBG cause whatever it actually is called is very stupid. And finally Mike brings up how movies get renamed in other countries. Did you know Hot Tub Time Machine is called "GO!! With Bath" in Japan? Well you do now.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Shining a Light On the Failed Dark Universe
Almost a century before the MCU, Universal Studios and its monster properties had a shared universe. Hell, they even shared it with Abbott and Costello a few times. Then after the MCU Universal was like "hey, we want the exact same lucrative interconnected thing they have" and thus we had the Dark Universe born of brittle clay on shaky ground. And after a false start with a Dracula movie that felt like a historical epic on Starz they properly kicked off their franchise with Tom Cruise as Tom Cruise in the Mummy (Guest starring a mummy). The boys raise this failed experiment from the dead and perform a verbal autopsy to determine exactly why it all fell apart. And yes, there's some good old fashioned Brendan Fraser defense and a shout out to the insanity that was Van Helsing.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Why "The Monster Mash" is America's Spooky Anthem
There are hundreds of Christmas songs that we're about to be bombarded with for the last two months of the year but for some reason there aren't many Halloween songs. So few songs that people will just play horrifying sound effect records to fill the void cause you can only listen to Monster Mash so many times. And boy do we in this episode!! You'll learn the full history of the song and the pure joy that is talking like Bobby "Boris" Pickett. Spooky season can be both scary and silly and this week we go all in on the silly side.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Why Funny People Make Scary Movies Now
The big communal belly laughs we used to hear in theaters have now been traded for blood curdling screams as folks with comedy backgrounds like Curry Barker, Jordan Peele, and Zach Cregger bring the tension and release formula they perfected so well into a new genre with massive critical and financial results. Why is this happening and more importantly why is it such a natural transition and hey, is there any way at all that comedy movies themselves can make a comeback or are we just trading slapstick for movies where people get stabbed with sticks (and various other weapons).Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

The Rough But Rewarding Journey of John Stewart, Green Lantern
John Stewart was created with the best of intentions by two white guys named Neal and Denn to add some actual color to the very white DC Comics of 971 and he came out swinging, with the character not shying away from his blackness. Then he sat on a shelf for a good while before he was used at all as the substitute in a Green Lantern book where the lead never actually left. Writers would put him through hell on a whim and when he finally did get a bit of salvation it was from a creator that rightfully deserves to be forgotten . And while he's often been used as a supporting character in comics (even taking a backseat to Guy Freaking Gardner of all people!!) it was folks from television that saw his potential and would make a truly lasting impression with the character, first in Justice League in 2001 and now in the modern hit Lanterns that is redefining the character and proving he always deserved the moment he's getting now.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Is There A Good Wolverine Game?
Jake takes the boys through a brutal tour of Wolverine's solo video game past and play through some real Weapon Excrement as they discuss games so bad you'd need a healing factor to survive them. Is it really that hard to create a good game for our lovable and murderous canucklehead? Have they ever gotten it right? And did Sony even get it right this time with their new triple A game or will Wolverine succumb to his greatest threat yet: Video game journalists. The bulk of this episode was recorded before the new game came out but we reunited like a fifty-something Hugh Jackman to share our thoughts once we played the game (since everyone has them and we also shamelessly content farm.)Want even more Nerd of Mouth?
