I'm going through the backlog of @nerdmysteries.bsky.social, & as a card-carrying Punk Ass Book Jockey in Comics Retail™️, THANK YOU FOR TELLING FOLKS THEIR 90s/00s BOOKS AREN'T WORTH MILLIONS. I've done this shit for 10+ years, & this will forever be headache-inducing 😫

Superman will always be difficult to top as the greatest fictional character of all time if for no other reason than he threw a punch so hard he knocked out the Klan *in real life.*

PEAK PODCASTING PERFORMANCE! NEW SECRET HISTORIES OF NERD MYSTERIES!!!

YAYYY THIS IS MY FAVORITE TYPE OF AMUSEMENT PARK TOPIC YAYYY

Something goes bump in the night, and we call this meeting of the SHONM society to order as we talk about the haunted places of amusement parks. Thanks to those who got in comments and demand we make this episode it happened, come have some thrills and chills with us!

Days come and go, but Tuesday remains the same. Two nerds yell, laugh, and learn about whatever they decided to lock in on. This week Host Austin saw an image so haunting they had to learn everything they could about it, enter George Pal and the Puppetoons (you can thank him for Laika Studios btw)🔗⬇️
