Nerd Podcast Radio - Your Nerd Home Away from Home
260 episodes - English - Latest episode: 13 days ago - ★★★★★ - 9 ratingsNerd Podcast Radio was made by three friends that decided to sit down and talk about the thing that we love most, being nerds. We decided to record it, seeing how we all moved to different cities and didn't want to see our friendships fall to the wayside. In this podcast, we get together every other week, and talk about whatever nerdy topic that comes to us. Sometimes there are more of us, sometimes there are less of us but we're always Nerd Podcast Radio.
