Rules of Nerdquisition hosts THE RULES OF NERDQUISITION, a fiction show with 36 episodes published.

Technical difficulties aside, Spock has a beard and Gretchen has a new studio setup. We also talk the Disney classic of TRON, its sequel, and its influence on modern SCIFI works such as Cyberpunk and The Matrix.

Because what's an episode of Star Trek without an evil AI to contend with and a logical fallacy to defeat it with? Also, we've got a new format, as we first talk Trek, and then dive into other fandoms. This week (speakin

The Nerds first outing with Greeks gods and their influence on our favorite science fiction franchise, and we've got an actual Greek god to contend with...or, an alien...or, something.

The Nerds are back! Okay, we didn't actually go anywhere. No holiday hiatus for us, even if we weren't quite on time for this episode. You can blame Gretchen. We do. That said, let's have a serious conversation about Vul

It was a movie. Someone made it. People acted in it. You might recognize them. Not terrible, not great, but a milestone for sure. The Nerds review the first Trek film and discuss the future of TRoN.

It's a Kirk Family Reunion, and most of them die. Also, Spock has a neat trick.

There were some technical difficulties on our side near the close of the show, but Spock built a time scanning ham radio, and Kirk swore on broadcast television for the first time. The Nerds discuss.

The best Trek is weird Trek. The Nerds discuss that and the best hallway fight scenes from SciFi/Fantasy.

Hand us some tissue, please. We've got Klingons.

The Nerds take a trip, and a toke (or three), in Paradise.

The Nerds take a week away from Trek and guests to share their mutual love for SyFy's re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica. Also, Helios. Because of course.

The Nerds spend a couple of hours speaking with actor/producer Tom McLaren (Lost in Space -Netflix-, Helios, Ralph's Perfect Christmas), about passion projects, indie projects, and the evolution of the film/TV industry.

The Nerds are back on track and talking about the horrors of AI. Has anyone seen Osborne?

Oops, the Nerds skipped an episode, but that's the least of our troubles as a greater mystery has emerged: Who is Osborne, and more importantly, the actor who portrayed him? Inquiring nerds want to know.

The Nerds enlist the aid of Thomas "The Villain" Bishop in order to breakdown the psyche of the most famous Trek Villain of all time, Khan Noonien Singh.

The Nerds try to find out whodunnit in this murder mystery aboard the USS Enterprise.

Tomorrow is yesterday, but only on the second Tuesday of each month when divided by the color purple.

The Nerds speak with Trek alum, writer and producer, Steve Warnek, about his involvement with Star Trek, how he got into the biz, future projects and labors of love.
