The Somewhat Ambitious

My girlfriend TJ is over in Shanghai, and whipped up this popart wallpaper of sorts, for The Somewhat Ambitious. I’m very chuffed. It’s a pretty fair representation of how we both behave with a camera on us. Luke is calm, collected, and charming. I turn into an utter goon.

If you missed Nerds of a Feather this morning, here’s what you… uh… missed.

- The rather rambling discussion regarding a tribe of 200 who populated the entire world. Apparently Voltron is going to save us from the rapture.

- The 24 year old who is changing his name to James T. Kirk, by deed poll. To be honest, I wish I had the cajones to do this.

- We chatted about Zachary Quinto, who plays Spock in the new Star Trek feature, and his inability to do the Vulcan salute!

- Can glass harness the raw might of lightning? Probably!

- We talked about the advent of Indonesian Hobbits, and new evidence which suggests they’re something rather more remarkable than previously thought.

- And finally, with the help of Manchux I wreaked my horrible revenge on Marieke Hardy, by dumping loads of crappy Harry Potter slash fiction onto Eroticmarieke.com, which isn’t sexy. It’s just weird. And it’s also the last time I’m leaving my Facebook open at the studios.

Keep your eyes glued to the site, because along with the podcast from todays show, you’ll soon also be getting loads of new (read: rushed and irrational) content. And you might also get some news on the next upcoming Somewhat Ambitious podcast with Luke and myself, which is being recorded this week. I think. Talk to Luke, he’s the brains of the outfit.
