This week Emily and Cody return in person one last time before heading off to warmer lands. Topics include Cornhole, retro & creepy toys, past & future cars, crazy TV shows, Neil Gaiman, Alien Isolation, and manatees. Also, we announce a listener contest!
NERDBURGER GUEST CONTEST
We’re holding a contest to bring one of our listeners onto the show later this year. If you’re interested, here are the guidelines:
Email us at nerdburgershow@gmail.com with the subject line “NerdBurger Guest”
Write a paragraph or two describing why you want to be a guest on the show. Write whatever you want. It can be funny, sincere, or even heartwarming. It can be the truth or it can be a pile of lies. Anything you think will get our attention.
We’ll accept entries for the entire month of March. Get your entry to us by midnight on March 31st.
Once we have all the entries, Mike and I will choose our favorite and contact you to be on the show. We’ll schedule you based on your availability. We record on the weekends, but are very flexible in our scheduling. We’ll find a time that fits your schedule.
We’ll announce the winner on the first show in April, which should go live on Wednesday, April 8th. The winner’s episode will happen whenever we can make the scheduling work, probably sometime in June.
This contest is not open to anyone who has previously been a guest on the show at any time.
Just what is this Cornhole thing we were talking about?

Emily was remembering this TV show starring Jonathan Frakes, which was born out of this even more ridiculous TV special starring Jonathan Frakes. Aliens. Creepy.
