Let’s Get Twiharded!

Outcasts! Twihards! Twitards?

We’re very sure all of you are well aware of what we do here by now. If you consider yourself an avid listener, this post is not necessarily for you.

Every three weeks we tackle a very pressing matter on the podcast: Twilight.

First, a backstory:

One day, after a sudden inner-revolution, Jeff realized that he spends countless precious seconds directing hatred toward a certain sparkly, romance-filled, vampiric love story. As these thoughts were juggled around in his mind, he realized that maybe he doesn’t quite have the right to hate a series with such passion.

After carefully assessing the danger, Jeff decided he’d tackle the Twilight audiobook in an effort to understand where the hype came from. At each recording session, Jeff brings an incredibly detailed outline. This outline is presented to Bill and Mike; their reactions are recorded in real-time.

Popular Outcasts assumes that if they absorb the roots of the series (the books) then maybe they can get away with making fun of the series guilt-free.

For those of you that consider yourself fans, this is where you come in. Look at your Facebook friends, look at your phone’s contact list, scan your twitter feed; we want you to tell the fans about what we’ve been up to, who knows, maybe they’ll enjoy themselves!

We’ve compiled a helpful list that will allow you to easily access every “Let’s Get Twiharded” segment we’ve recorded thus far.

New listeners the Twilight segments are found within the last 30 minutes of each episode, but feel free to listen to everything! Have fun and and don’t take our satire too seriously!

Self Help For Nerds Like Us

Outcasts!  I just wanted to hop on here real quick and let you know about a really great book that has a lot of great information to help nerds like us, for lack of a better term, get our shit together.

It’s called “The Nerdist Way” and it’s written by Chris Hardwick.  Yeah, that Chris Hardwick.  It’s basically a blueprint to help you take the things that make us nerds (including, but not limited to our curse…er…ability to categorize and obsess over everything) and make those things work for our benefit.

It’s a great read, and an even better AUDIO BOOK!  I mean, it’s read by Chris himself, so if you’re a fan, you’ll enjoy it immensely!

It’s probably best to direct you to his site, nerdist.com, to pick it up.  

Enjoy, folks!
