Large Nerdron Collider

Part news show, part panel discussion and part blue-sky brainstorming, the Large Nerdron Collider is a podcast that embraces the geekiest of geeky tendencies. Whether it’s a deep discussion over which superhero needs their own standalone film (come on, Squirrel Girl!) or a look at how the changing power dynamics within geek culture are shaping entertainment, the Large Nerdron Collider is here to dive in. Plus, each episode will have a stream-of-consciousness mashup where two or more geeky properties are molded into something new (though not necessarily improved). Ever wondered how the Scooby Doo gang would take down The Jigsaw Killer? So do we, and we’re weird enough to figure it out!

I miss the mashups

I love this show. It keeps me up to date, and I even find myself adding my own comments to their conversation. But I will say that I miss the mashups. 7/18/2023 - Thank you for being supportive of unions! Ariel and Jonathan are spot on in their assessments of both the studios and of people opting out of the industry due to mistreatment of employees which will lead to a lack of employees in the future. School districts, hospitals, grocery stores, and more have been using these same stall tactics for decades, which is a large factor in labor shortages. Management must treat their employees with the respect they’re due, or management won’t have labor to keep their business running.

As an old nerd, I can relate

Really enjoyable show. Being just slightly older than Jonathan, love hearing someone my age who relates to all this. While we don’t nerd out about the same stuff, there is enough in common. Ariel sets a good tone for this and reminds me of a few people I know. I can almost imagine her at times with her hands on her hips and just giving a glare, you know that stare, at Jonathan for a comment. Really good interplay between them.

A Great Variety

One of the best things about this podcast is that they will cover ANYTHING that people geek out about. Comics, sci-fi, fantasy, but also throw-backs, Broadway, and so much more. Honestly, I’d listen to J+A talk for hour just about theater.

Like most of it.

I like the news and discussion, not as interested in the mashup at the end.

It’s back!!!

I was a fan of this show when it was produced independently back in 2017 and I am so happy it’s back! Ariel and Jonathan have such great chemistry and I love hearing about all the news in the geek-universe!
