It’s a solemn week as Dan and Andrew mourn the loss of nerdy legend, Leonard Nimoy.

Week in Geek: Dan talks about the update to his western webcomic, Long John, while also praising the new music album by John Carpenter, Lost Themes. Andrew plays Pokemon Y while also reading a zombie choose-your-own-adventure book on his Kindle, Zombocalypse Now by Matt Youngmark.

NEWSBLAST: Before getting to the meat of the episode, Andrew and Dan decide to dive into some nerdy headlines that had slipped through their fingers over the last few weeks.

Beam Me Up: Dan and Andrew say goodbye to Leonard Nimoy by discussing everything from Star Trek to Transformers to Fringe. 

Needs of the Many: To continue the memorium, Andrew and Dan discuss what is arguably Nimoy’s most notable work as Spock in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
