Opener contains sound from the Doctor Who episode “Almost People.” Music by the University of Rhode Island Ram Marching Band under the direction of Dr. Brian Cardany.

The chime is from RCP Tones. It’s been part of the Nerdist podcast since the beginning. See: nerdist.com/download-the-nerdist-podcast-ringtone/

I combined my favorite 11th Doctor saying with the Nerdist chime, and my favorite marching band song to date “Hold On I’m Coming” by Sam and Dave as done by The URI Marching Band.

Black Eyed Peas, Britney Spears, hate by numbers, music, Wayne Gladstone

As Hate By Numbers heads towards it’s last 4 episodes, let’s take a look back at the previous 96! This week it’s Glad Stone SINGS and other music related Hate by Numbers!!  This week I dig though the Hate by Numbers archive for the times Glad Stone blessed us with his vocals! I’m also including HBN’s related to music!

Let’s start off with episode 12.  Here is one where he’s the object of Miley Cyrus’ affection?  Oh this video is so innocent.

There is a reason why this classic is among the most popular of the HBN’s, it’s episode #39 with the Black Eyed Peas!  Apparently it is perfectly acceptable to rhyme a word with itself.  It is if you are the Black Eyed Peas!

 

In episode #61 he explores the deeply philosophical song “My First Ki$$” featuring Ke$ha.  I was thinking of changing my name to Dian€.  That makes as much sense as Ke$ha!!

 

Here is the powerful song about the nonsense of the ‘Masque at Ground Zero”  Here is episode #63!

 

There was the time that Taylor Swift wrote a song about Glad Stone. She’s really needy!!  Here is episode #84!

 

Of course there was that time when EVERYONE whipped their hair back and forth thanks to Will Smith’s spawn Willow.  Here is Glad Stone pointing out the awesome stuff in Whip My Hair!

We end with a return to the Black Eyed Pea’s Will.I.Am!  His song with Britney attracted the ire and humor of Glad Stone.  I actually like this song.  It’s a silly pop song.  But Glad Stone’s criticism are valid.

If you know where the top image comes from then you definitely want to check Don Hertzfeldt’s newest creation WORLD OF TOMORROW.  It is currently available via Vimeo for the mere price of $3.99.  Most of that money (90%) will go towards him creating more amazing and though provoking art!

Here is the wonderful REJECTED now with color commentary by Don Herzfelt himself!

 

 

Finally, if you are considering making something, stop considering and just do it! Here are some words of wisdom from the Nerdist himself, Chris Hardwick
