Nerd Noise

Contrary to popular belief 2016 did not take out the Nerd Noise squad despite our major celebrity status. What do fame whores like us do when we’ve felt the frigid presence of Death lurking just out of our peripheral vision? We discuss Rogue One: An ‘I’m Not Crying, You’re Crying’ Story. Because if we don’t record ourselves nerding, did we really nerd?
