Nutty Bites 107: Strong Female CharactersNutty Bites 107: Strong Female Characters

It seems like Strong Female Characters are on the rise again. Nuchtchas and Laura Nicole are joined by Tek and Jason to talk about it. First of all, why are we seeing a resurgence of the strong woman? Which characters are the most relevant to our experiences? Thanks to the past popularity of strong female representation, society has changed, as a result those characters of the past don’t hold up to today’s standards. We also talk tropes too, especially what we like seeing in female characters, and what don’t we like seeing in female characters? Who are some of your favorite female characters?

Nutty Bites 102: Con Survival GuideNutty Bites 102: Con Survival Guide

Convention season is upon us so we thought we’d give you an updated Con Survival Guide. This year we talk about not just attending a con but being a guest at a con, dealing with cosplayers, cosplaying, and being press at a con. The golden rule is, don’t be a creep.

Each con is different but with these tips you can make sure your experience is happy, healthy, and doesn’t break your bank.

I also thanks all the patrons who made this episode possible. If you’d like to contribute go to my Patreon Page and donate to the show and next month I’ll be thanking you. I read the names at the beginning of this episode, I am still getting a feel for how this patreon thing is working. Let me know if you like it at the beginning of the show, or the end? Thanks!

Nutty Bites 99: Intro to Ghibli - Porco RossoNutty Bites 99: Intro to Ghibli – Porco Rosso

 

Porco Rosso is set during the rise of fascism where a human pilot is cursed to be a pig. Porco is a lovable character that you can’t help but love. We meet Fio who is the girl everyone falls for because she is amazing and talented. Listen to Nuchtchas, Tek, Jen, & Jason talk about their experiences with this film. We went pretty long on this one, so it may take a while to get through. enjoy!

Intro to Ghibli, a new regular segment of Nutty Bites and the Talk Nerdy 2 Me Podcasts. Jen & Jason guide newbies Nuchtchas & Tek through the movies of Studio Ghibli. We are starting with the Hayao Miyazaki films in order(ish), just bumping My Neighbor Totoro to the first.  Once we finish those we will hit up the Isao Takahata films, then the Ghibli films without either director, then two non Ghibli Miyazaki films, and we also have some bonus shorts to sprinkle throughout.

Nutty Bites 98: Cooking ShowsNutty Bites 98: Cooking Shows

Cooking shows are awesome, but also include a lot of things both fiction and non fiction. From how to shows, to competition shows, to anime, to quick videos online, to podcasts, to movies, we explore all these have to offer. We delve into how much influence these shows have on our cooking and eating habits. Jen and Jason of the Talk Nerdy 2 Me Podcast join Nuchtchas and Tek to discuss all of these topics and to go wildly off topic, like you do. So listen and enjoy as we totally geek out about food and cooking.

Nutty Bites 85: Intro to Ghibli – My Neighbor Totoro

Nutty Bites 85: Intro to Ghibli - My Neighbor TotoroNutty Bites 85: Intro to Ghibli – My Neighbor Totoro

Intro to Ghibli, a new regular segment of Nutty Bites and the Talk Nerdy 2 Me Podcasts. Jen & Jason guide newbies Nuchtchas & Tek through the movies of Studio Ghibli. Starting with My Neighbor Totoro, we bumble our way through figuring out how this form of IntroCast works.

I’m also really pleased with the show art, I drew this of the four of us with Totoro. I will be using this art for all of the Intro to Ghibli episodes because the imagry from this movie has become so iconic of studio Ghibli. You can look forward to a future post about this Daily Creativity piece on it’s own.

We are starting with the Hayao Miyazaki films in order(ish), just bumping My Neighbor Totoro to the first.  Once we finish those we will hit up the Isao Takahata films, then the Ghibli films without either director, then two non Ghibli Miyazaki films, and we also have some bonus shorts to sprinkle throughout.
