On this episode, it gets way too real as we fuel our existentialist depression with a movie that hits closer to home than it did in 2008, Wall-E. Joined by our guest Tyler, we contemplate what fictional universe we'd want to live in, where we discover that Tyler and Syd just want peace and to be able to chill, while Casey wants to commit vigilante justice. We also come for the capitalist overlords, furries, and Taco Bell for taking away our potatoes. Thanks for listening!

On this episode of the Nerd Herd, Syd forces Casey to watch another film just for the art and awesome character design. We have a deep discussion about the best way to prepare a potato, how the plot of this movie is basically No. 6, and how Casey has lost her sense of escapism and can't watch anything without comparing it to the current state of the world.

Alternatively titled: Ep 77. The "we're mad at America so let's talk about Japan" Episode. This time on the Nerd Herd, we discuss all of the animes that Syd has taken the opportunity to show Casey and kick off her first anime phase during the quarantine, and how the through line of Casey's eclectic anime crushes is that they are all just little bitches.

Recorded on Star Wars Day, this week on the Nerd Herd, we discuss the Final Season of Clone Wars. On this episode, we discuss adults throwing toddler-level tantrums about spice, how #MAULWASRIGHT2020 , and Order 66 and Anakin's fall to the Dark Side ruining our lives yet again because it hurts worse every time.

This week on the Nerd Herd, we discuss a much higher quality Disney-Pixar film, Coco. This movie steered the discussion towards childhood memories, we have a random Harry Potter chat, and we were truly caught off guard by the awesome plot twists and tears this movie induces.

This week on the Nerd Herd, we gave ourselves another existential crisis (this is our last one for awhile) by watching another Studio Ghibli film, Howl's Moving Castle. We discuss what type of romance we actually like in movies, real-life robot infestations, and the foreshadowing that the dramatic, Harry Styles-dressing, bob cut Howl had for his actual life.

Welcome to a bonus episode! This time, we discuss what's been entertaining us during social distancing (everything timestamped below!). Syd has reached her second anime phase, Casey has reached her second Loki phase, Clone Wars has wrecked us emotionally and we're increasingly impressed with the creativity of video games over movies.

This week on the Nerd Herd, we cover the very self-aware, hilarious, and colorful, Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse. On this episode, it's mass chaos as we're joined by Luke to discuss the mainstream intro to the multiverse, the Easter Eggs that clue us in to which Spider-Man is our universe's, and which character everyone relates to most (it's not who you'd expect).

This week on the Nerd Herd, we're keeping it current with Pixar's newest cinema-turned-streaming release, Onward starring some of our favorites, Crisp Rat and Tom Holland (Spidre-Man himself). On this episode, we realize the quarantine is making us way too introspective because we cover many a heavy topic, including but not limited to: Mental health during Ol' Rona, Disney's problematic LGBTQ+ representation, and the possibility of JFK and Walt Disney's frozen heads being stored in the same cryogenic freezer.

This week on the Nerd Herd, we discuss another Studio Ghibli film, Castle in the Sky, with special guest Tyler. On this episode, the metaphors get even deeper as the message of the movie warns against nationalism and nuclear power (Damn). Don't worry though, it's not all serious deep chats because Casey spent way too much time comparing this to Dark Crystal and we do some deep linguistic research LIVE ON AIR to solve the mystery of Anna Paquin's phasing accent.

On this socially-distanced episode of the Nerd Herd, we are joined by honorary co-host, Tyler, and the third of our sibling trifecta, Luke, to discuss a childhood favorite of ours, Studio Ghibli's Spirited Away. We talk through all of the metaphors and parallels that completely flew over our heads as kids because we were too scared of our parents turning into pigs, break down our existential emptiness and dread that all Miyazaki films weirdly put into us, and Syd and Casey are too excited about yet another sad boi with a delicious redemption/development arc (except this one is also a dragon).

We're kicking off the new year by discussing the first live-action Star Wars series and meme incubator, The Mandalorian! On this episode, Syd has so many theories about what comes next that she had to create a literal flow chart, Casey is very curious about the logistics of Mando copulating while keeping his helmet on, our Easter Egg hunt and Fun-Fact-Finder Caps were truly ON for you, and we're just so happy that we're getting fed with some amazing live action Star Wars content.

This time on the Nerd Herd, we had to eat some VERY special salad to be able to see (for the third time) and enjoy the newest addition to the heart and soul of The Nerd Herd, Star Wars. On this episode, we break down some of the awesome nostalgic moments, we pose several "good questions....for another time" because we just don't understand why some things happen in this movie, Syd has her own fanfic version of the film ready to go whenever the execs want to remake it, and Casey is (surprise) just impressed with Adam Driver's talent and sex appeal. Stormpilot is canon king. Thanks for listening! Don't forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts and Spotify!

This time on the Nerd Herd, we finish out our latest series with How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. On this episode, we dish out our opinions on how early it is acceptable to listen to Christmas music, and Casey takes a major issue with the ending of this movie while Syd is really just here to talk about animation.

We're continuing our latest series with the sequel (not squeakquel) to How To Train Your Dragon. On this episode, we discuss our excitement for all the Marvel Disney+ shows, what movies we would always sit & watch back in the days of cable TV, and how we don't really understand why the villain of this movie is such an edgelord and all the characters totally overreact about it.

This time on the Nerd Herd, we discuss How To Train Your Dragon. On this episode, Casey was half asleep during the movie & hence had way more questions, Syd didn't realize that Gerard Butler's accent was actually his accent, and.....dragons.

On this mini episode, we discuss the new Jurassic World short film, Battle at Big Rock, which gives us a look into the state of things post-Fallen Kingdom. We also discuss our theories on how the OG 3 from Jurassic Park will tie in to Jurassic World 3, speculate about what item of clothing Kylo Ren will take off in The Rise of Skywalker, and Casey briefs Syd on the horrors of Humboldt Squid.

On this episode, it's a nostalgia trip for Casey & Syd as we revisit a favorite movie from our preteen years. We discuss whether or not Elle Fanning is actually a good actor, dissect various plot holes that our childhood minds didn't care about, and realize that Stranger Things basically ripped off this movie.
