The Last Podcast Network

The Nerds got their Revenge, now what? That’s what comedians Holden McNeely, Mike Lawrence, and Jake Young are trying to figure out in the weekly combination tribunal/confessional “Nerd of Mouth.” Recorded from the dankest basement in the “Last Podcast on the Left” studios, we’re getting to the bottom of whether there’s more to life than any% WR videogame speedruns, limited edition action figures, and anime shows about ludicrously strong children beating each other up. Theme song by Grant Gordon, logo by Andy Kluthe.

Wizard and the Bruiser

Remember when you’d spend your allowance on some grainy photos of Castlevania IV and trust a cartoon frog to tell you which console to buy? There were tips and also tricks in the same place! We sure do and will go over all the Gamepros and cons from the heyday of video game magazines. How did they start? Why did they die? And shockingly, which one is still being published today?!

An Elegy For Video Game Magazines

How does a street level vigilante turn into a meme of a character that can do anything and beat anyone? It takes time, popularity, Grant Morrison, and casually sacrificing the rest of the DC universe (Some with just one punch!) to give us the omnipotent version of Batman that could beat anyone with some prep time and a trust fund. And who cares if some people balk at how OP ol' Brucie is, the stories are dope and yeah, we should all have contingency plans to stop Aquaman. This is the episode on Batman you both need and deserve.

Batman's Bat God Crisis

We conclude spooky season (To be fair it's been a pretty damn spooky year) with a history of haunted house attractions. Holden takes us all the way back to when haunts started with Ancient Greece and through some Dark Ages, some not so Dark Ages, and the Great Depression when creepily yelling at people for fun started becoming the art form it is today! Then Jake talks about theme park horror attractions like Halloween Horror Nights and Knotts Scary farm. And finally Mike takes us home talking about the lunatic fringes (emphasis on the lunatics) that have tried to take haunted houses to the extreme and what happens when an art form loses its art and just turns into a guy named Russ torturing people. It's always a guy named Russ, isn't it?

A Jaunt Through Various Haunts

The hills are silent with the bloodcurdling sound of our voices as we talk about the origins, the fall, and resurgence of horror in video games. If you played it with the lights off and it wasn't Leisure Suit Larry chances are we give it it's due this episode, everything from Alien: Isolation to Zombies Ate My Neighbors. And Resident Evil. Lots of Resident Evil.

Horror In Video Games

To herald both spooky season and Smarch Madness Jake Young Frankenstein, Holden Mckneel Before Zod and permanent third host Mike Lawrence are celebrating one of the most beloved Halloween traditions there is: The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror. We watched every single one so you don't have to. Seriously, you don't have. But don't worry, we talk plenty about all the classic vignettes too that you actually want us to talk about in this Kang sized spectacular too!

Last Treehouse of Horror on the Left

Aim lock yourself in a room and listen as Holden goes through the entire history of cheating in video games and discusses the different kinds of cheating that happen. This one gets deep into tech talk but also the moral dilemma we all face when we ask if cheating is okay if it makes a game more fun (yes it is and yes it does) and when does it all go too far?

The History of Cheating in Video-Games

Anime is demon slaying the box office right now and all it had to do was…just be itself? Jake explains how we got to this golden moment and how to sustain it. This one’s got Nepalese politics, Japanese economics, and poop jokes for some reason. Well there’s a reason, you just have to listen.

2025: The Year Anime won

This week while Mike was off in Japan, Jake and Holden welcome Seena Ghaznavi (from LPN’s The Foreign Report) to talk about the waning era of the gadget! From walkmans to calculator watches everything has been swallowed up by the smartphone, and we’re spreading the love for the PDAs, MP3 Players, Flip Phones, and point and shoot cameras that made us the nerds we are today!

The Death of Gadgets: Eulogy for a Gizmo

We're doing a good ol' fashioned deep dive on the man from the Great White North who made Hollywood his second city and blew up the box office! We go through Rick's early life, his meteoric rise and his powerful decision to walk away from it all, proving he was the goodhearted nerd we always cheered for. If it ever comes out that he's actually a terrible person we will have to immediately take this episode down because we shower him with praise as both a performer and a man. But I don't think he will, because he's Rick Moranis, the littlest giant of the silver screen.

Rick Moranis Canadian Badass

Witness as a boy is born and uses fantasy to escape the reality of living in the foul wasteland that is Bayonne New Jersey. Young George RR Martin is the ultimate fanboy, transforms into the ultimate journeyman writer, and then after years of toiling in writers rooms and the clearance section of Waldenbooks creates a beloved book series! And with that series comes a fan base that is first Stark loving glad and eventually becomes Stark raving mad. Was that a lame sentence? Yes, but we met our deadline and published it anyway unlike some people!! Is it okay that the guy is too busy enjoying life and Elden Ring to return to Westeros or is he guilty of being like every dad in a 90s kid movie and making a promise he refuses to keep?
