Its an odd week when Laidman comes back with stories of assless chaps and whips but what do you expect from this Canadian weirdo?
In this episode of the Nerd News network, its a reunion for all 3 Mikes and a Spada as they tackle what happened in the world of Nerdom this week! Spada tells you how to find some really fantastic deals on whatever you need. Laidman shatters Birdman’s hopes for breaking an exclusive Rock band 3 story via a video response to the set list and Blanchard brings us an update to the Michael Bay produced TMNT movie. The TWIG nerds also touch off on how software piracy can yours for only 150 bucks on your PS3 and what the hell is going on with the new Spiderman reboot and who shall be his lady love.
This episode also features some lovely hatemail read by a very bizzare British-ish fellow and an interview with a canadian geek who knows his stuff,Jonathan Llyr formerly of Canada’s own Space Channel and his own Podcast Hardcore Nerdity. Lastly we have a toy review that may have you hunting the racks of Toys R Us or Ebay very soon…
take a listen and stay tuned at the end for a touching story of love at first fist….

We are short on crew but full on news in this episode of the Nerd News Network!
Ryan, Blanchard and Birdman all take on all this stuff that happened in the Geek o sphere this past week. We talk about some interesting casting for the upcoming Judge Dredd movie involving a certain Dr McCoy and what will happen to be our beloved Terminator Franchise when its taken into 3D and made animated. The Nerd News boys also get into a heated discussion involving comic books, the successes and the failures and how this relates to Scott Piligrim vs the World which is under-performing at the box office right now and so much more. Birdman also talks with one of the developers from Power Gig:Rise of the Six String about the new game and some potentially cool pre order bonuses too. Our DVD review of the week also features a certain cyborg police officer and our Game Access.ca review takes us to the Streets of Port Caverton with skateboard in hand.
Strap in and let’s go with this edition of the Nerd News Network!
