WEEKLY AUDIO UPDATE: Podcasts, Podcasts, and More Podcasts!

Hey, gang! We're back with another weekly audio update with all the juicy news happening behind the scenes at NerdSync! This week, we're mostly talking about podcast news. If you didn't know, NerdSync currently has three podcasts: The NerdSync Podcast, Flashback Flicks, and The Online Podcast with Scott & Dylan. 

You can find each of them on iTunes, Soundcloud, and now... YOUTUBE! (kinda)

The Surprising Origin & History of SPIDER-MAN's Web Shooters! 🕸

This is a video I've been meaning to make for SO LONG! Hope you like it! I found it incredibly fascinating to learn about the almost identical web shooters from the Golden Age. 

I know I say this a lot, but it really is true. You guys are the ones who enable me to make these videos each week. Without you, these would not get made, and I'd have to look for a job elsewhere. Thank you for everything! 

And hey! Looks like the video is already ranking super wel...

COMMENTARY: We used to have a machinima... yeah...

You are in for a treat today! NerdSync used to make a Halo machinima series. That's... I mean... what more info do you need to know? Watch it and see how terrible it was!

The Beautiful Origin of Mary Jane and Peter Parker's Relationship 💕

A tad late for Valentine's Day, but here you go! This topic was very last minute, but I really wanted to talk about it. Hope you like it. 

WALLPAPER: Lego Batman + Adam West!

Not sure if anyone would actually want this one, but here it is!  I think it's kinda pretty. 

WEEKLY UPDATE: The Revamped Newsletter!

Fun times! Here we go with another rambling update! Mostly, I wanted to talk about our revamped newsletter. If you haven't already, you can sign up at nerdsyncnews.com  for free. Thanks, gang!

LEGO Batman is the New 1966 Adam West Batman, and Maybe That's a Good Thing?

New video! This was meant to go up yesterday, but I fell asleep. It turned out better than I expected, though! Very pleased with the final result!

What did you guys think of LEGO Batman?

NEW WALLPAPER: Miles Morales Spider-Man!

This was a fun one to make! The image was already very pretty, but I wanted to make it pop a bit more. I added a big, soft lens flare in the top left corner that covers some of Miles' arm and plays to the natural shadows of the image. I whitened the eyes to make them stand out more. And I shifted the colors a bit to make the black and red contrast off each other a bit more. 

If I had more time, I would have done a better job with some of the clouds in the background. I had to e...

How Miles Morales Turned Marvel's SPIDER-MAN into a Legacy!

I tried uploading this yesterday, but Patreon was acting all funny. So, here it is! The continuation of #Webruary!

Thank you to everyone that has been sharing it around. I don't typically beg for shares, but my intuition says this video won't do so well on YouTube, so every little bit helps! Not that you need to do anything more than you are currently doing. Thank you for being a Patron! I'll be uploading the wallpaper for this one later today!

COMMENTARY: Wonder Woman's weird sidekick

I introduce Dylan to the WONDERful world of Etta Candy, in this super embarassing and cringey NerdSync video from the distant past.

How Can SPIDER-MAN Stick to Walls with Shoes On???

New video! I forgot to post it here yesterday because Dylan was having his big live stream event and I was distracted.

I want to do more of these Q&A type videos where I take a question directly from the audience and give it my best answer. We'll see how this one performs.

Kraven's Last Hunt wallpaper!

I didn't post the Superman thumbnail as a wallpaper because I didn't think it was that great, but I can if you want me to. Here's the Kraven one! I added some new lighting, changed around some colors, and make the focus on Spidey pop a bit more. Hope you like it!

You can download it from either that above image, or this link here!

Weekly Update: New Podcasts, Old Shows, Many Collabs!

It's been a while, but here's this week's audio update about podcast news, an ancient NerdSync show coming back, and a bunch of potential collabs coming up!

Thanks for being Patrons!

COMMENTARY: A Very Batman Christmas!

We're going back to the first NerdSync Christmas special for this week's commentary video! It's a good time!

Let us know what other videos you want a commentary of. Except Cap-Wolf. I get it. We recorded it, but I have yet to post it for reasons. Someday...

The Hidden Meaning and Psychology of KRAVEN'S LAST HUNT! (Spider-Man)

Here's the video we posted yesterday! We're starting a month of spider-videos called Webruary, because I'm hilarious. We've got some fun stuff in store!

Weekly audio update coming soon. Possibly later tonight. Lots of stuff to talk about. Thanks for supporting our Patreon!

COMMENTARY: Topo the Octopus

So, this is awkward, but I can't remember if I've posted this one before. We recorded it all the way back in December. If I have, let me know and I'll post another one. 

Anyway, Dylan had never heard of Topo before, so I wanted to sit down and watch this classic NerdSync video with him. Have fun!

THEORY: Could SUPERMAN Actually Reverse the Earth's Spin and Turn Back Time? 🌎

It's a day late, but it's here!

A little background: It's a day late because I had to wait on sponsor approval. But since they never got back to me, I just cut them out and uploaded it as is for your beautiful faces!

Hope you like it. I've updated the names in the description to be everyone I have on the list so far. More commentary videos coming soon, and the weekly audio update as well! Thanks gang!

What's With Those X-MEN Comics in the LOGAN Trailer???

I don't think I posted this here the other day. My bad. Here's a short video about the X-Men comics in the new Logan trailer, and also 8 other times comics and movies featured meta comic references!

Your Name in Our Videos!

Since we've had sweeping changes to the Patreon, we need to collect your names again to put in our videos. Fill out this link here asap so we can get all your names ready for tomorrow's new video! 

If you remember having filled out this form in the past, please take a moment and do it again. We're building a brand new list of names. We'll probably have to redo this o...

What's Happening at NerdSync?

Here's a little audio update that tells you everything you need to know about video schedules, future topics, podcast stuff, and more! Now you are in the know about everything happening at NerdSync this week!

Ant-Man wallpaper download!

Here's our first HD wallper download thing. You can download it from here!  First time doing this, so let me know if it works! (Also keep in mind that comic books often don't have super high resolution images, so apologies if it looks a tad pixelated.)

HUGE REWARD CHANGES! PLEASE READ!

Hey, gang! Today is the day we redo our reward tiers. Here's what has changed:

WHAT'S NEW!

• Weekly audio updates right here on Patreon! All the behind-the-scenes news at NerdSync. Every. Single. Week!
• Weekly video commentaries! Now we'll publish at least one of these silly things each week. Hopefully with better audio quality, too!
• HD wallpapers made from our video thumbnails! I spend a ton of time on video thumbnails, and I'm excited that you guys are...

New Podcast Intro Music!

If you didn't know Dylan and I have started a new podcast called The Online Podcast, because we're super funny and clever. There aren't any episodes officially out yet, but we've recorded 4 of them and plan on releasing the show next month on iTunes, Soundcloud, and wherever else RSS feeds went in the 90s. 

Speaking of the 90s, that's kind of the vibe I wanted for the intro music. Like, what the 90s thought the internet would be like. So I asked our sound guy, 2017-01-21 20:10:59 +0000 UTC View Post

Why ANT-MAN Would be a USELESS Avenger!

Once again, the video is late. Sorry about that. But I hope you like the video. I took the time to make a semi-decent animation that makes up for the terrible one I did for the Han Solo video last week.

Thanks, gang! Still working on updating the reward tiers. That should be changed soon.

New Rewards! Drilling Down.

Thanks to everyone for voting in the poll about reward types. Looks like you guys mostly want exclusive content, behind the scenes stuff, and digital rewards. So let's drill down even further to see what specific things you want the most.

Remember, you can vote for multiple things, but don't vote for EVERYTHING as that wouldn't help much.  It's a lot of things, I know. Hope it doesn't overwhelm anyone.

Why BATMAN Not Turning His Head Is A Good Thing

We've got a new video up, but it's not on our channel. It's on Mr. Sunday Movies' channel! He was very gracious to offer me a spot to make a video for his audience, and I realize now that that might have been a mistake, as they do not seem to be warming up to me...

Oh well, here's the video, in case you want to hear me talk more about Batman costumes! (Also, you are NOT being charged for this. Not sure if Patreon tells you that or not.)

Help decide the reward tiers for 2017!

Hey everyone! First of all, I want to apologize for the millionth time that I don't keep up with the rewards as best as I should. And by that I mean, I'm pretty abysmal at it. So this year, I want to rework some of the tiers to be a little more doable for me, while still exciting for you!

I've created a poll, but I am more than open to your own suggestions and thoughts that may not be represented in the poll options below. Leave any feedback in the comments about what kinds of rewar...

COMMENTARY: Spider-Man Web Pits Stuff

I haven't posted one of these in a while, which is a shame because we have a lot of them. I need to remember to post one every week or so. 

Anyway, here's a commentary about Spidey's underarm webbing. Enjoy!

Why Han Solo Shooting Second is IMPOSSIBLE! (Star Wars)

I feel like I am apologizing more and more for videos being late. But hey, it's the first one of 2017! Excitement!

I just wanted to say that I would not have been able to take a week off without your support here on Patreon. Genuinely. January is one of the most underpaying months for YouTube, and normally I have to work extra hard to make a billion videos that are geared towards just getting clicks and views. But your support meant that I could take a small break and not worry abou...

The Hidden Genius of RORSCHACH's Mask! (Watchmen)

Last video of the year! Or first, depending on the timezone. Thanks for being Patrons despite how bad I am at managing this Patreon. I plan to get better about that in 2017. 

Once again, not charging you for this one either. Happy new year!
