Hi All!
Here at NerdCulturePodcast we sometimes receive requests from people asking us to plug their topic/product. Sometimes it turns out to be something dodgy, or inappropriate for our family friendly image, but sometimes it’s something pretty cool – and the Electric Animal Circus definitely falls into that category.
According to the creator, Patrick Gleeson, ‘In a junk-punk, post-apocalyptic future an incorrigible showman and a boy genius build robotic animals from trash and make them the stars of a travelling circus.’ Intriguing yeah!
He has a website that chronicles the development of the Circus from concept to future release, featuring short films, photos, music and artwork, which can be found at:
The Electric Animal Circus
It really does look awesome, with the xylophone playing octopus my personal favourite – “Keep it simple Stratonicus!”
According to Patrick his show will be ‘geek/robot/puppetry/theatre/scifi/junk-punk/music/animatronic/circus heaven‘ and I think he may be right.
Check it out!

The title of this post comes from a comment by the awesome Larry on the latest episode (#88) of NonCanonical, a weekly comic podcast. It is the culmination of a running gag from the preceding episodes dealing with the ‘creative’ forces behind Marvel Comics at the moment, and is pure comedy gold. In fact, it is so awesome that I laughed out loud on the train and immediately decided that I had to post about it, and the show, here.
As I mentioned NonCanonical is a weekly podcast from Australia that focuses on comics. It features News, reviews (The Pull List) & a featured topic discussion (like our War Room). It has a rotating roster but is mainly hosted by Josh, Joe, Larry & Kane. I have been listening to it since episode #4, when Jarrod and Looch from Classic Comics got me onto it, and have loved it ever since. It is a great mix of comedy and informed opinion and has steered me in the direction of some great comics. I don’t always agree with some of their opinions, but they always have valid arguments for them and that is what makes listening to them so enjoyable.
We also feature comic based content on here, and I’m especially proud of our coverage of DC’s the New 52, but their entire focus is on comics and they cover items we simply don’t have the time or resources to. Not only that, but Their show entertains me every Monday morning on the way to the start of a new working week, so for that alone they should be thanked. And lets face it, everyone needs a Larry in their lives!

Story Hub is where we will showcase the original work of the NCP crew and our friends. In the future we may even be able to post your work here. For our first Story Hub post we have the first instalment of NCP member Luke ‘the Harshest Critic in the World’ Walker’s Protocol. Take it away Luke……
Greetings culturalites. We at Nerd Culture Podcast are not content to merely comment on the current state of Geek Chic. No! It’s time for us to expand the minds of nerdom. So, in this spirit of cultural destruction, we unveil the Story Hub.
Here, you will find our efforts to stand on the shoulders of such literary giants as L. Ron Hubbard, Dan Brown and Kevin J. Anderson. Like what you read? Or, are you so angered that you want to tear down the internet to prevent us from infecting others? Does Dan Brown have deeper characters and more intricate plots? Let us know. Drop us a line or leave a comment.
