My name is John, and I am a nerd. I have lots of other nerdy friends. For many years we would get together, drink and talk about all kinds of nerdy things. Now no longer are those conversations shrouded in the privacy of whosever house we are hanging out at. Thanks to having a lot of extra time we are now recording all of these crazy conversations so that someone other than the NSA is listening to them. If you like nerdy things, who knows, maybe you will like this.
