S1:E21 - Nerdin In The 90’s
30&Nerdy Podcast
There was an idea... a passion project celebrating Nerd Culture with"southern charm". After nights of planning, thinking, throwing around ideas and suggestions... an image began taking shape as the 30&Nerdy Podcast. What started as friends discussing their favorite comics, movies, and games quickly resonated with listeners who appreciated the authentic enthusiasm and unique southern perspective on all things nerdy. The podcast created a welcoming community where being passionate about traditionally "nerdy" interests was celebrated rather than stigmatized. Then a community began. Then growth happened. Then we had to become something more.
From these humble beginnings, 30&Nerdy Podcast became Studio 66, then from those ashes; Nerdy South Entertainment. It has turned into something far more expansive than its founders could have imagined. The brand grew beyond audio content to encompass convention appearances, merchandise lines, community events, and expanded media offerings that connected fans across the southern states and beyond. What makes Nerdy South Entertainment special is how it's maintained its authentic voice and community-centered approach while growing into a recognized platform that bridges southern culture with the wider world of fandoms, proving that nerd culture thrives everywhere, including... The Nerdy South!

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.

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.
