Buckle up, Buttercup. The Lunduke Journal has one heck of an announcement for you:
Starting one week from today (Wednesday, December 13th at 12pm Central Time) a new, weekly, live chat show will kick off — the aptly named “Untitled Nerdy Chat Show".
Multiple guests at the same time. Nerdy topics (including retro and modern computing, as well as nerdy entertainment). Plus a live text chat room on screen that the guests can see and interact with.
The ultimate, nerdy hang out session.
And the guests won’t simply be celebrities (though there will be plenty of those)… no, sir! Guests on the “Untitled Nerdy Chat Show" will include… all of you.
Guest spots will be filled via subscriber-only posts on Lunduke.Locals.com. So, if you want to be a guest on an episode of the show — be sure you have a subscription.
A few quick notes on that:
Anyone who picks up a Yearly Triple Pass or Lifetime Subscription gets priority placement in securing a spot on the show. Grab your subscription then email “bryan at lunduke.com” to sort out the details.
Subscription prices to The Lunduke Journal are going up (to match inflation) on January 1st. So grabbing a subscription now, and locking in the lower cost, is a good idea.
Keep your eye on Lunduke.Locals.com for show announcements and related posts.
Other Perks of Grabbing a Lifetime or Triple Pass Subscription
There are quite a few reasons to have a Triple Pass (Yearly or Lifetime) to The Lunduke Journal during the month of December:
Full access to all three sits in The Lunduke Journal family (Lunduke.Locals.com, NerdyEntertainment.Locals.com, & ConservativeNerds.Locals.com).
Saving money over having just the standard Monthly subscription.
Plus, the following are only perks when getting a new subscription during December:
Priority placement in getting a guest spot on “Untitled Nerdy Chat Show" during December.
A custom, nerdy limerick, written specifically about you. Turned into a pixel art comic strip. And released publicly.
Lifetime Triple Pass Only: Only pay once, and never again. No recurring payment of any kind. Pretty sweet.
Reminder: These subscription prices are going up in a few weeks. So hop on it now to get the lower price.
Here’s an example of what your nerdy limerick might look like. Each is hand written, and hand-designed (no silly A.I. here). Each is unique.
Pretty sweet, right? Grab your Triple Pass or Lifetime subscription and become immortalized in nerdy, pixel art poetry.
Some Background on the “Untitled Nerdy Chat Show"
One of my absolute favorite things, in my shows, is interacting with other nerds. Shoot, I even enjoy hecklers in my audiences.
In years past I did a regular show called “Lunduke & Friends” — a simple, casual chat show where I would hang out with some delightful nerds and talk… about nerdy stuff. It was simply wonderful.
This resulted in a pilot TV show being filmed, for a cable network, which we tentatively called “Untitled Geek Talk Show”. That show never got past the pilot stage (for a whole bunch of reasons), but portions of that show stuck with me.
Over the last few years, I have put my desire to have this type of chat show off to the side for two key reasons: 1) I have been travelling, making recording such a show difficult and 2) the technology for doing exactly the kind of show I wanted was a real pain in the rear (doable… but challenging and clunky).
Now, as 2023 comes to a close, both reasons are resolved. Doing a show like “Untitled Nerdy Chat Show" is now both possible… and convenient. Now’s the time.
Going forward, this will be a weekly show — with a number of celebrity guests already lined up for January. One hour of nerdy jibber-jabber.
And, just like everything else on The Lunduke Journal, there will be zero advertisements or sponsorships. No Big Tech, or Big Media money or influence.
This has been a dream of mine for a long time… and I am incredibly jazzed.
