UNT 11: Westworld
06/02/2017 Duration: 01h34minIf this doesn't look like anything to you... well, sit down. We need to have a chat. Just like the UNT team did when they gathered around the camp fire, reconfigured their personal AI settings and rambled on about HBO's hit TV series: Westworld. Dolores, Bernard, Mr. Ford and especially the Man In Black, all are discussed as well as the nature of what it truly means to be sentient. P.S. Tim may or may not be a robot. Hosted by: ‘Captain Boomerang’ Greig (@GreigT13) Featuring: Tim (@timagne) & ‘Rabbi Dirtsheet’ Jared Robinovitz (@SuperJew75) Follow our NEW official Twitter account @unfunnyntangent Music by: Ramin Djwadi & Village People.

UNT 10: The Walking Dead
22/01/2017 Duration: 02h19minWalkers, roamers, biters, oh my! Whatever you call them, zombies, by any other name, have captured the world's attention these days, and we here at Unfunny Nerd Tangent are no exception. So much so, we felt the need to talk about not one, not two, not three, but six and a half seasons of AMC's hit show, The Walking Dead. Shane, the Governor, severed limbs, missing eyes, the way the comic book / television timelines seem determined to correct themselves, and of course - Negan - nothing is off the table as we sit down to talk all things undead. Oh, and don't forget to look at the flowers...
