Description
The Super Fantastic Nerd Hour is a podcast dedicated to all the things that nerds love. We explore science fiction, fantasy, comic books, TV shows, movies, video games, and sometimes action figures. During the INFINITE CROSSOVER CHAMBER we mashup our favorite characters against each other to see who would win (because that’s what nerds do when they get together). Each episode also includes cool recommendations for stuff you might like. Hosted by Ali Mattu and H.A. Conrad.

A Universe of Nerdy Knowledge
Between the two of them, Ali and Conrad seem to have all bases of nerd-dom covered. Ali has spoken at ComicCon about StarTrek and Conrad has read more books than could possibly fit in an normal sized house. They’ve got the chops AND great rapport. Definitely worth a listen.
:)
Amazing debut from a perfectly-paired duo. I can’t wait to hear more!
Great addition
Super fun and great addition to my list of podcasts.
