The Nerdist! It’s one small step for man, and one incredible show about life, the universe, and everything NASA nerds want to know about. This show is, you know, no big deal. It only features legendary astronaut Buzz Aldrin, one of 12 human beings to have ever walked on the moon! We’ve also got NASA’s latest superstar, Bobak Ferdowsi joining us to talk about launching an SUV size probe onto Mars. Matt and Jonah hit the streets of L.A. with an exclusive “space tour” and Chris and the gange play “It Is Rocket Science” with our guests. Come blast off with us!

Humans! This episode of the Nerdist show on BBC America is so jam packed full of amazing things that it's leaking out of the sides and making a mess all over the floor! Get out the Sham-Wow and the wet-vac because we're about to get beautiful all over your television set. That's right - two of the best looking people on the planet join Chris Hardwick tonight. We'll start with Joe Manganiello, who stars as the six foot five werewolf on True Blood (and yes, we've determined that he actually is that tall - but can he get through our revolving door?) Plus, the lovely Morena Baccarin from Firefly and Homeland joins us. We’ll enlist both of them to help us play a game called “Obscure Comic Book Character, German Restaurant, or Dinosaur?” Matt and Jonah head off once more as our Nerdist ambassadors to the United Kingdom and well-dressed comedian Paul F. Thomkins spins some yarns. All this on The Nerdist!

If there's one thing all nerds have in common, it's a deep and abiding love for science fiction. Why, some nerds love sci-fi so much, they would devote an entire hour of television to it. That's right: time to set your eyeballs to 'watch!' It's The Nerdist Tribute to Sci-Fi, because, let's face it, most of us would rather live in the Shire or Flotsam Paradise than in our current abode. We'll hear from horror master Guillermo del Toro - the nicest man in Hollywood... He's giving us the lowdown on one of the most anticipated movies of the summer, Pacific Rim. Also joining Chris and the gang will be the angelic Katee Sackhoff, star of Battlestar Galactica and 24. We'll find out what fictional world they'd like to dwell in and then we'll put their knowledge of British programming to the test in the television trivia game BBC(een) It! Also, Matt Smith sends one of his battalion of mechanical clones to talk more about life as the Doctor. All that, plus an exclusive look at the supervillain version of TED Talks (aptly named ZOD Talks) and the comedic stylings of Ron Funches. This show killed at the Mos Eisley Cantina and you'll love it too!

Oh, hello, we didn't see you there! Don't worry - we can't actually see you. So don't worry about putting nicer clothes on, just sit back and enjoy this episode of The Nerdist! On this show, we're talking to Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg - these childhood friends met at Bar Mitzvah camp and have been entertaining audiences ever since. They'll talk about their new movie This is the End. Then, Zach Galifianakis joins Chris, Matt and Jonah to give us the lowdown on The Hangover III. We'll test their knowledge of obscure British television shows and see if they can discern which are real shows and which are fake, in a little game called BBC(een) It! Matt and Jonah explore London once more with another installation of The Nerdist Lads in London. Then, we'll balance out the dude factor when we get to know the new Doctor Who companion Jenna Coleman in a behind the scenes of The Nerdist Podcast. Comedian Natasha Leggero delights us all and makes us laugh! Come join the equation!
