Get ready for the new daily show

Listen: The Following the Nerd Podcast Ep 110 – “Houston, we have a problem.”

September 7th, 2014 by Marc Comments

On this week’s show Marc and Saxon look at the second episode of Doctor Who Season 8 and ponder if the show can get back on track.

We also look at fanboy hatred of Man of Steel and the infuriating argument from someone who doesn’t know the facts.

Plus, let’s talk about the big superhero casting this week as Joaquin Pheonix is afraid to say yes to Doctor Strange, the Rock is announced as Black Adam, Shazam’s enemy, ana Arrow casts its Ra’s Al Ghul.

We also look at all the latest Nerdy news, including Al Pacino saying he’d be up for a Marvel movie. Well, yes please!

And that’s just the top stories, there’s sooooooo much more in here, guys.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
