30&Nerdy Podcast
30&Nerdy Podcast began with an idea. We could do what those Mythical Morning guys do...well we can't. We don't have producers and a crew, we don't love editing hours of video content, and well, we don't have the time; what with jobs and families and life....soooo....we aren't doing what they do, but we did start a podcast back in 2019. What started out as a podcast full of our everyday conversations that we would have anyways; became so much more. What was a portal of our wisdom and education; is now a way for us to stay in touch and up to date with the ever growing world of Nerd Culture!
30&Nerdy is a podcast for Nerds, by Nerds. Created by Josh Davis and Tyler McDaniel; We are here to Entertain, Enlighten, and Educate about all things in the vast Nerdiverse. The wild thing is we even wind up learning new things. While we are not all knowing in aaaaallllll aspects of The Nerdiverse, we will try to lean as much as we can for the content. There's so much out there, and as we said; there is so much that even we have to learn new things.
A little bit about us:
Josh (The Doctor of Nerdonomics, The Juice, Ucey Juicy, JD, The PodFather of 30&Nerdy) is a theatre teacher in Tennessee. He is more of the Marvel / Star Wars person of the show. He is a Disney shill. Some of his favorite characters include Spider-Man, Gambit, Nightwing, The Riddler, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Josh has a wife and child and he loves playing video games, watching movies, directing plays and musicals, and hanging out with his daughter.
Tyler (The Duke of Nerds, The Sweet T of The Nerdy South, Tyler Mac, T-Mac, The Rockstar of Rizz) is The Multi-Media and Content Director at Tennessee Legend Distillery. He is more of the DC / LoTR guy of the show. One hill he will die on is that Disney owns too much. Some of his favorite characters include Batman, Wolverine, Vegeta, The Joker, and Samwise Gamgee. Tyler's biggest passion is being on stage. He has been in over 60 plays or musicals spanning elementary school, middle school, high school, college, and various community theatre companies in East Tennessee with 500+ shows in the professional theater world in Pigeon Forge, TN.

"You're a wizard, Harry."
20 years ago, a phenomenon began. JK Rowling's Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone came to life in theaters all across the globe. Here we are 20 years later, and Harry Potter is still one of the biggest and most celebrated franchises in the history of film. So we took a break from busting ghosts to talk about The Boy Who Lived!

S3:E30 - The Evil Dead with David Horton
Friday Oct 15, 2021
Friday Oct 15, 2021
"We're going to get you. We're going to get you. Not another peep. Time to go to sleep."
40 Years ago...today...October 15th, 1981...an evil awoke.
On this day, in 1981, The Evil Dead hit theaters all around America. Sam Raimi took a chance. The crew took a chance. The producers took a chance. Thankfully they did. Due to that chance, we have one of the best horror films and cult classics of all time. The Evil Dead. Setting the stage for the careers of both Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell, Evil Dead changed the game of horror and prepared an entire genre with a new blueprint. Luckily, we personally know someone that worked on the film; David Horton of Johnny Has The Keys Podcast. In this interview, he discusses moments on set, how it was done, working with the crew, and tropes of horror.
In this episode, Tyler will also recount his time at New York ComiCon. From people he saw in panels, moments of the weekend, seeing Ghostbusters: Afterlife, pictures with celebs, and so much more. Don't forget to check out the 3 daily updates on the podcast platform of your choice.
