We have had tons of fun with Spada, Ryan, TV’s Mr. Neil, Dustimus Prime, and more! From all the memes, jokes, insults, shock and awe from deaths in hollywood we have had a lot of fun. However all good things must come to an end, in the final days of nerd news it wasn’t feeling very rewarding or fun. So to inject more fun we are stepping away from the news desk. Join us in nerd News 100 as we reminisce on everything in the last two years. We also make the announcements of what will take Nerd News’s place!  Thank you to all the fans who contributed to NN 100, and the Nerd News in the last two years!

This weeks Nerd News tries to answer those questions, and much more ! We hit on the digital distribution craze with news of two different services and their success bringing media to the masses.

They may get a turkey dinner, but they missed out on the bacon as shared by Spada before the show this week. We took a good hard look at some controversial comments from Geoff Johns, discuss Bumblebee getting himself into an accident, and talk about Dora the Explorer’s latest adventure to court. Marvel is all over the news as they have a new old game coming to download services everywhere, along with some new animated adventures on the way. We also discuss a certain Doctor making a house call to the United States after approximately 40 long years.
