This week on Nerd Alert we’re talking about Thor (with the author of Thor & The Warriors Four, one of my favorite comic books of last year), Doctor Who (yes, finally), and interviewing the artist behind Axe Cop.
Be there!
Nerd Alert returns to discuss why Portal 2 sucks, if Game of Thrones is better than the book, and how in 1996 one high school class put on a musical adaptation of Star Wars.

Hi Everyone,
I have some good news and some bad news.
The bad news - Bleep Bloop: Zookeeper will be the last episode of Bleep Bloop for a while, possibly ever. I’ve had it in mind as a finale for a long time, and I think it’s an appropriate end to the series.
The good news - out of the…
This week on a very special Bleep Bloop we cover one of Jeff’s all-time favorite games.

Bleep Bloop - Catan with John Lutz
What’s cooler than playing German board game Settlers Of Catan? Lots of things, but specifically playing it on a $15,000 computer-table with 30 Rock’s John Lutz.
We couldn’t work it into the video so I feel obligated to report that Pat won. This is almost certainly the most we’ve ever actually been into a game during a Bleep Bloop shoot.
Bleep Bloop: America’s Next Top Model
We asked a Maxim model to help, but for some reason still got stuck on the changing room level.
