Depending on how you pronounce it, “Live in New Zealand” could have either of two meanings. In this case, it has both, because:

  1. Planet Nerd has gone live on Triangle TV, broadcasting from satellite and terrestrial stations at 9pm Friday nights, and
  2. New Zealand is going to be my life-raft when the rest of the world is drowning/boiling/starving in about 40 years’ time

I congratulate the New Zealanders on their good taste, robust climate, fertile soil and high mountains.

It be September 19th, and ye know what that means: all ‘cross the Interweb, nerds be talkin’ like pirates. But there be another reason to remember today, an’ that be Punraiser, a fund raising event in support o’ RMIT Fine Arts photography students. So get along to Roxanne Parlour tonight to see a line-up o’ Melbourne’s finest comedians, includin’ Planet Nerd presenter Ben McKenzie talkin’ about science or somesuch, and our very own DVD reviewer, Rob Lloyd, presentin’ a preview of his incredibly nerdy new show, Every Film Ever Made, with Planet Nerd guest star Adam McKenzie. Arrrr!

 

I got pretty excited about the prospect of Iron Man. You know I did. Just scroll down the page and listen to me sing “How Good Does That Movie Look?” in a slightly flat fashion. But the thing is, I really am a bit excited about Iron Man, and now I have more reason than ever. Sing and ye shall receive! Behold, the Iron Man “teaser trailer”.

…man. How good is that goatee? Plus the soundtrack of the trailer will make metalheads (or more likely, since this is Planet Nerd, Guitar Hero fans) go mental.

 

I couldn’t help but cheer when I noticed that SuperNerd Kyle Purdy made it to #3 in the Top 7 Geekiest Apple Fans.

Kyle was one of my favourite interviews ever.

Nerds Gone Wild cover Issue 4A friend just brought this magazine to my attention, and I am stunned that I haven’t come across it before. Nerds Gone Wild is the creation of Melbourne writer Mia Timpano.

It’s a magazine that you can buy in the store. You can also download it for free as PDF. The latest edition features Daniel Kitson as guest writer.

I’m in heaven.
