Love isn't just a subplot; in the multiverse, it's a superpower. As we kick off Black History Month 2026 & speed closer to Valentines Day, we're moving beyond the "struggle" and centering on Black Joy and Connection.In this episode, we're counting down the Top 10 Strongest Love Affairs in Nerd Culture. We aren't just talking about "ships"—we're talking about the ride-or-die partnerships that have survived cosmic reboots, zombie apocalypses, and the high-stakes world of public education. From the royal union of T'Challa and Storm to the slow-burn "nerd-meets-nerd" chemistry of Janine and Gregory, we explore why these couples resonate so deeply with the Blerd community.Join us as we analyze how these relationships challenge historical stereotypes, celebrate vulnerability, and prove that in every timeline, Black love is a radical and necessary force.Open show: Join Our Patreon: http://patreon.com/vvclifeGrab Some Gear: http://vvcmerch.comGeneral TalkWeekly Recap Sign Up For PatreonBaldur's Gate 3 Sessions!Monday Night Co Op!!Lor Travis Invitational TournamentThe Precious: JS-1: https://amzn.to/4tcesqlFame: https://a.co/d/ghVl7sbJaelyn: https://a.co/d/0njXVQbSloan: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4390724824/?ref=share_ios_native_controlCommercial #1Main Topic: Key Discussion PointsThe Blueprint: Why A Different World's Dwayne and Whitley still define "Goals" in 2026.Multiversal Bonds: The evolution of Miles Morales and the strength of his comic-book connections.Revolutionary Romance: How Black sci-fi and fantasy are finally giving us "soft" love stories without the trauma.Riddle Me this: Commercial: #2Games:Police SimulatorStars Of IcurusDue ProcessArms Of GodNews: Power Rangers UniverseCat cellphoneSocial Media Platform only for A.I.Chuck NorrisJudge Dred RebootGundam on Netflix?Disney Afternoon CollectionCalculate How much a ood chucksHumans will return to the moon next week Highlander rebootComic Of The week:Instagram: http://instagram.com/blacknerdpodcast facebook: http://facebook.com/blacknerdpodcastReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/blacknerdgang/s/uftLsO0Ad9website: http://blacknerdpodcast.comhttp://twitter.com/vvcradio http://instagram.com/js1thasupplier http://instagram.com/fameplanbhttp://instagram.com/jaelynaleisehttp://instagram.com/sloan_tempest

Maintaining a balance between your creative passions and the "real world" is a challenge every blerd (black nerd) faces when they decide to hit record. In this episode, we're peeling back the curtain on the business, the hustle, and the mental health required to survive as an independent nerdy content creator.Whether you're a cosplayer, a YouTuber, or a comic book writer, being "independent" means you are the CEO, the intern, and the talent all at once. We'll discuss how to build a brand that stays true to your geeky roots while navigating an industry that doesn't always have a blueprint for us.Open show: Join Our Patreon: http://patreon.com/vvclifeGrab Some Gear: http://vvcmerch.comGeneral TalkWeekly Recap Sign Up For PatreonBaldur's Gate 3 Sessions!Monday Night Co Op!!Lor Travis Invitational TournamentPokemon CompetitionThe Precious: JS-1: https://amzn.to/4qOtukDFame: https://a.co/d/3ZJSSYhJaelyn: https://a.co/d/eaAkAWrSloan: https://www.etsy.com/listing/4370365252/?ref=share_ios_native_controlCommercial #1Main Topic: Commercial: #2Games:Duel Fire Walled CityMagical AcademyLoot BoundSemiNews: Nights everyone should plan with their friendsSamsung is top dog!If buying doesn't count as ownership then…..Demolition Man 2 in productionComic Of The week: OrdealInstagram: http://instagram.com/blacknerdpodcast facebook: http://facebook.com/blacknerdpodcastReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/blacknerdgang/s/uftLsO0Ad9website: http://blacknerdpodcast.comhttp://twitter.com/vvcradio http://instagram.com/js1thasupplier http://instagram.com/fameplanbhttp://instagram.com/jaelynaleisehttp://instagram.com/sloan_tempest

Segregation or Sanctuary: Do We Still Need Blerd-Specific Spaces?The Controversy: As "Black Cons" grow in popularity, some argue that by creating our own conventions, we are retreating from the main stage and making it easier for "Big Cons" (like SDCC or NYCC) to ignore Black creators.The Debate: Is "Blerd" a necessary label for protection and networking, or is it becoming a "marketing gimmick" that limits Black creators to a smaller niche?The Heat: Pose the question: "If San Diego Comic-Con was perfectly inclusive tomorrow, would Blerdcon still need to exist?"NewsTNA's AMC Debut: TNA Wrestling officially debuted on AMC this week (Jan 15) with TNA Genesis 2026. Was the premiere "underwhelming" or a solid first step for a brand trying to reclaim its spot?

The Black Nerd Podcast crew is back for their annual pre-Thanksgiving tradition! This week, the hosts take a break from the usual deep dives into comics, gaming, and genre film to focus on the things that truly matter. Join them as they share personal stories and hilarious hot takes about everything they're grateful for—from representation in media (finally!) and the latest generation of gaming consoles that kept them sane, to the simple blessings like Auntie's mac and cheese and the power of a perfectly timed viral Black Twitter moment.Open show: Join Our Patreon: http://patreon.com/vvclifeGrab Some Gear: http://vvcmerch.comGeneral TalkJoy HQBaldur's Gate 3 Sessions!Tha Revival 2 The Precious: JS-1: https://amzn.to/4pqy8nLFame: https://a.co/d/3HVq28oJaelyn: https://a.co/d/f3J7httSloan: https://amzn.to/4p9syqfCommercial #1Main Topic: What A Black Nerd Is Thankful For!Riddle Me this: Commercial: #2Games:Kingdoms Of The DumpKyju Cleaner simulatorErrosionBeasts Be GoneGod BreakersNews: Tech that will completely change in our lifetimeDigital Credit CardNep-Hero's?New Black Tech Bros?DeadMau5 has a game?Black Spades ?Instagram: http://instagram.com/blacknerdpodcast facebook: http://facebook.com/blacknerdpodcastReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/blacknerdgang/s/uftLsO0Ad9website: http://blacknerdpodcast.comhttp://twitter.com/vvcradio http://instagram.com/js1thasupplier http://instagram.com/fameplanbhttp://instagram.com/jaelynaleisehttp://instagram.com/sloan_tempest

On this episode of Burn Notice, Napalm and I break down the truth about Black folks in anime, comics, and nerd culture—and why the real bullying never came from the kids, but from grown adults clinging to old stereotypes. We talk about how Black creativity has always been part of anime since the '80s, how cosplay and Comic Con are exploding with melanin, and how our own community sometimes becomes the biggest gatekeeper of Black imagination. From HBCU tradition clashes to creative insecurities to adults projecting their own baggage onto kids—we call it all out. Be who you are. Let your kids be who they are. The future is creative, nerdy, and wide open.
