The Nerdist Podcast / Chris Hardwick

[mummifiedstalin]

I'm a casual fan of Web Soup (as in, I watch it when I happen to see it on). And I think that Chris Hardwick has a good sense of humor and timing...probably one of the few who could easily do the same type of thing as Joel McHale. But I've never actually thought of myself as a "fan" or anything.

But, I happened to see that he does a podcast, The Nerdist, and I listened to it because he had an interview with Wired's editor in chief, who I like a lot. The podcast, though, is wonderful. Good funny but also intelligent in a way that mixes actual conversation with messed up humor in a great way.

Anyone else listen?

I do. Chris Hardwick is on my stalking list. ;D

The podcasts are pretty fun because he can get looser, not that "Web Soup" is exactly tight. Actually, one of the things I like about him is his self-deprecation when a joke falls flat. Very funny guy though. Very knowledgeable.

Love the Nerdist podcast. Only found out about it because he appeared on Cole Stratton's Pop My Culture one and he mentioned the live one with Craig Ferguson so I checked it out. Become a big fan of his work. He's also very funny when he appears on the Late Late Show, not that I'd know as it isn't shown over here and I'd never do something like use a proxy server (ahem).
