Hank and Petra are podcasting from deep in the hills of Appalachia. We are laughing and talking about ourselves, our community, and the world in general. We like to think of ourselves as educated Hillbillies. You can expect regular discussions about geeky topics such as philosophy, current events, m…

The Hillbilly Nerd Talk podcast is an absolute gem that I stumbled upon through the Podern Family hashtag on Twitter. From the moment I started listening, I knew I had found something special. Hosted by Hank and Petra, this show is filled with hilarious banter and charm that keeps me coming back for more each week.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the chemistry between Hank and Petra.

They have a knack for bringing their unique perspectives on current events and cultural issues, which often differ from mine, but still manage to draw me in and keep me engaged.
The realness of their conversations is another highlight of this podcast. They don't hold back and aren't afraid to share their opinions, which adds an authenticity to the show that is refreshing. It's like listening to a genuine conversation between friends rather than scripted content.
Additionally, Hank and Petra's intelligence shines through in their discussions. They have strong opinions and are well-informed about the topics they talk about. Even though their views may differ from mine at times, I appreciate their insights and value the thought-provoking conversations they bring to the table.
If there's one downside to this podcast, it would be that some listeners may not resonate with Hank and Petra's hillbilly personas or find it relatable. However, I believe that anyone who gives them a chance will quickly see past any stereotypes or preconceived notions and appreciate the wit, humor, and wisdom they bring to each episode.
In conclusion, The Hillbilly Nerd Talk podcast is an absolute delight to listen to. The chemistry between hosts Hank and Petra, along with their real talk style conversations make for an entertaining experience every time. Whether they're discussing current events or delving into deeper issues, this podcast never fails to make me laugh out loud and keep me engaged. I highly recommend giving it a listen and joining in on the hillbilly wisdom and fun.

We're happy to introduce Ripley, Podcat 2.0. She's our only child, so we gush. Are we already becoming cyborgs with our phones giving us photographic memory and access to Dr Google? We typed our term papers on typewriters. I'm all in on House if then Dragon, loving the female viewpoint as much as the dragons. I relate to the utter dysfunction of the Targarians, and love being back in Westeros. Hank's ok watching it with me. Hank's watched Netflix's Maniac. I caught enough to think it's weird but love the sets and acting. It's time to revisit Starship Troopers. It's funny and satire, but the marketing made us expect a serious action movie. Expectations weren't met. And a racist little scandal came out of Kentucky. We're glad things are changing and this isn't tolerated.
This show is in memory of Chairman Meow. I'm scared I'll never love any animal as much as I loved that mean grey cat. There is a kitty shaped hole in my heart. I've been loving television lately, and picking the shows. We both liked The Sandman. Hank liked The Boys until the end, and I think he's only putting up with House of the Dragon because I'm utterly obsessed. We've enjoyed some ambient music from YouTube. The floating astronaut is amazing. It's devolved into “floaty spaceman” here. NASA says not to worry, but they're trying to change the trajectory of an astroid. So don't look up but there's a Double Astroid Redirecting Test going on. Hank is a big history reader, and he's reading Hunter S. Thompson's articles written during the Nixon era. It's good to know that things have been this crazy before.

HNT 254: Slapageddon. New Music from Old Bands. Momma's Family and Seven Year Switch. Mr. Skin.
Chairman Meow is a picky little shit and finding her food has been challenging. I'm doing the Master Gardner training and volunteering. I've find my tribe. My outrage subs have been active lately. I can't imagine what possesses people to keep “pets” that cause so much death, destruction, and STRESS. And what's going on in Ukrainian is freaking us out.

I've been binge listening to the Belief it or Not Podcast. It's reassuring to hear that other people also grew up in a cult and got out. Hank had two young fellas painting a fence. He let them make their own mistakes. Never Gonna Give You Up has hit over a billion views. Free Guy is a shockingly good movie. See it. And we've had it with our unvaccinated neighbors. Our state is getting decimated by COVID because nobody can tell them what to do.

We are both vaccinated now. My one dose didn’t hit me as hard as Hank’s second dose hit him. Still worth it. Japan makes robot seals that respond to nursing home patients affection. Hank started a pool league night and even I’m learning to play some. And our friends have so much drama in their relationships right now.
Super Bowl. Vet Trip. Gender Reveal Party. Armie Hammer. Snow Removal Fight. Cicadas. AMC and GameStop. Nazi Secretary.
We were snowed in for our best Christmas ever. So we did it again New Years. COVID will mark 2020 forever. What a weird time. It also gave gonorrhea a boost. Bill Belichick passes on a Trump medal of Freedom. News from space. We may be hearing our neighbors. And I’ve found a 5 hour […]

Joe Arpaio records a Cameo welcome to a furry convention. Hillbilly Elegy hits close to home for both of us. We went to a wedding. Netflix was a steal back in the day. And a simple phone is a great ideal.
I finally read a book! How could I resist an X Men/Star Trek crossover. I made it through that book. We’re glad it’s not as hot as Death Valley. But Hank felt an earthquake. Aussies know how to earn husband points: shark punch! Why oh why do we call them waspers?
Petra’s following the Johnny Depp vs Amber Herd media drama. Maybe it’s schadenfreude watching Amber Turd get some karma. Christian Hillbilly Tarot Cards?! Yea I had to have em. How far back should we go changing names? Hank went fishing and review The Black Swan (book) for us.
WV elects their first trans councilwoman. We’re guilty pleasure enjoying RuPauls Drag Race. This leads right in to watching Behind the Candelabra. Who else remembers Liberace? Ford Bronco taking advantage of 90’s nostalgia and odd coincidence. NASCAR has been progressive about the Confederate Flag, and they certainly surprised, warmed my heart and made me cry […]
Introverts seem to be coping better with COVID stay at home orders. It is hard to be with the same person all the time. UK just cleaned house in their cheerleading program. There’s smoke but some people still say there’s no fire. Is it a Karen ruining the program? Joe Rogan just made podcasting millions. […]
We’re taking full advantage of the shut in. I’m learning to sew and gardening like a mad woman. We’re playing video games and connecting. Poor Chairman Meow has a full on panic attack when I tried to clean her ear. NOPE, she’s getting doped and taken to the vet. Did anyone know Tupac is alive […]
This is a historic time. We will all never forget the events of the past few months. If your not a little scared by all of this your a fool.
The Corona Stock Market collapse and the toilet paper shortage of 2020. Meow got tranquilized at the vet. And how did these dirty lyrics make it on air?
More adventures in Real Estate. That’s not how this works? Not only assholes drive Mercedes. What’s your kids show name? Did half time at the Super Bowl upset you? Listen to a mummy speak. Bobby Knight might drive said Mercedes. And I’m obsessed with the Johnny Depp Amber Heard Drama. I said she scary.

We hit a landmark in life. Our deal happened and now we’re distressing and catching back up on life. Is Ball in the Family the next Jerome Jackson tragedy? Two thumbs up for The Boys on Amazon Prime and The Righteous Gemstones on HBO. How much does a date cost? Depends on where you live […]
We know we say this every time, but it’s been nuts lately. Tank Girl got smashed in a parking lot and I’m outraged. We’ve had family drama. And Hank rants a bit. We enjoyed Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. It’ll be a classic. Wasping. I just hate when my home state is in the […]
Adventures in Real Estate or wow you just made eastern Kentucky uncomfortable with your racism. Should strip clubs take food stamps? He had WHAT? Are we gonna storm Area 51?
– Petra loves the show Good Omens. Apparently there is a petition against it. – Who knew that Cracker Barrel was gay friendly? – Cat Foxes are a real thing and a new species of animal. – You can now trade mark any dirty word, slogan or image you want. – Country rap? Why not?
We give our Game of Thrones post mortem. Samsung just rendered reality meaningless. Chernobyl has been interesting. I’m falling into the Reddit hole, and Hank liked Godzilla.
We’re the weirdos enjoying season 8 of Game of Thrones. We’ve got love for episode 5 and predictions for the end. We review the reviewers too. If your livelihood depends on a TV show, why do you blast it? Momma Drama! Momma has a spot of skin cancer. She’s getting lots of attention. She likes […]
We had a perfect dinner and drinks with Kathy Kline of Rock Your Retirement Podcast and her husband Les. They are inspirational. We got a call from MOMO It was a great weekend to be a Geek! You’ve been warned. We spoil everything.
Princess the Pig is in the news for all the wrong reasons. We’re someone’s Appalachian Adoptee. I was the wrath of Karma for one shining and inarticulate moment. Hank’s music picks.
Momma Drama is becoming a reoccurring segment of our show. It’s how I’m dealing with it! We watched way too much horrifying TV the last couple of weeks. I would say trigger warning, but our regular listeners know that by now. So MoMo is a big deal now. After everything else we talked about, all […]
