What started as a passion project has evolved into a multigenerational conversation—one that blends nostalgia with fresh perspectives, classic fandoms with new obsessions, and heartfelt storytelling with plenty of laughs.
Hosted by a dad who grew up on Saturday morning cartoons, 90s hip‑hop, and comic‑book culture, and a daughter discovering her own favorite fandoms in real time, Zero Dark Nerdy brings two eras of nerdiness together under one mic. Each episode explores the entertainment we love, the characters who inspire us, and the cultural moments that stick with us long after the credits roll.
We’re joined regularly by guests from all corners of the pop‑culture universe—creators, collectors, superfans, musicians, filmmakers, artists, and everyday nerds with extraordinary stories. Whether we’re breaking down the latest blockbuster, revisiting a childhood classic, debating the best TV theme songs, or diving into the weird and wonderful corners of fandom, our goal is simple: to create a space where everyone feels welcome to geek out.
Zero Dark Nerdy is more than a podcast. It’s a family, a community, and a celebration of the things that bring us joy. Two generations. One shared love of pop culture. Endless conversations.
Welcome to the nerdy side of life.
