b"Hi there. We're all nerds and geeks here, right? We're passionate about our hobbies, but why does that passion so often turn to rage and complaining? Can't we all just have fun and enjoy each other's thoughts and company? Well, this week on Nerds Without Pants we're joined by a couple excellent guests to talk about just that. Enjoy the beautiful voices and even-handed opinions of Erika Szabo and John Gholson!\\nWe kick things off with introductions. Erika is becoming a force to be reckoned with in the realm of games and tech writing. John has started a new comics blog, acted in a movie, and been on VH1 since last we heard from him. After that we move into Consumption Junction. We talk about Iron Man 3, comic book back issues, Fire Emblem, anime, and the proper language needed when reviewing vibrators. Yes, you read that right.\\n\\nThen, we go deep on the echo chamber of nerd rage that can be found on the internet. Sexism comes up a lot, as it's been a hot button issue in the games sector recently. From the Dragon's Crown art kerfluffle to Iron Man 3 ruining people's lives, the crew tries to preach a message of tolerance and positivity. Simply put, why so serious, gamers?\\nThis is a very different episode of Nerds Without Pants, and you're really in for a treat. Let us know your feelings on nerd rage in the comments below. Also, give some love to Erika, who we would really like to have back on the show very soon. Possibly forever. And ever. And ever.\\nFEATURED MUSIC:\\nBobby McFerrin- Don't Worry, Be Happy\\nBrian Tyler-Can You Dig It (Iron Man 3 Main Titles)\\nMatthew Wilder- Break My Stride\\nRobbie Rob- In Time (Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure soundtrack)"
