Nerd World Politics

Brendon Alekseii asks the question, if we can't talk about some of the things that Kobe was accused of doing after his passing...how can we remember to ask the tough questions about those kinds of actions?

Want to hear more of this conversation, take in the latest episode of Nerd World Politics, "Looking Back at 2019"...

What started off as a conversation about Bong Joon-Ho's "Parasite" became an opportunity for Marlon Thompson to spit this gem...

Tune in to our latest episode, "Looking Back at 2019", to hear more.

Your boys Marlon and Brendon are back with a new episode for 2020 (after a whole year off), and look back at some of the interesting things that happened from late 2019 - the Blitzchung fiasco, Kobe's passing, and more. Also, a new and crazy story from 2020...with T-Pain in it? He's still around? Check out the latest episode of Nerd World Politics to find out!
