Hello, and welcome to Episode 12 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In this episode, it's Vib's turn to have the Hot Take, as he sits down to explain why Lara Raith, the de facto Queen of the White Court of Vampires in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, is a good person and not the monster we all think she is. It goes about as well as you're imagining. In fact, one has to wonder if Vib has been enthralled (and Sean does... frequently).
Next time, we're back to Games Workshop's Warhammer franchises, providing an Expertise is Overrated style clear and unambiguous explanation of the Chaos gods. Join us then for more nonsense.

Hello, and welcome to Episode 11 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
Join us on yet another voyage across JRR Tolkien's Middle Earth, as we bring laserlike focus to a frequently overlooked question. Just how weird are the family trees? No, seriously, just look at them. Ever wanted to know just how related Aragorn and Arwen are? Whether Feanor was just ultra fertile? If Finwe is the rightful king of Gondor? This is the episode for you? Special credit to http://lotrproject.com/, without which we would have struggled in this episode even more than we did, go check them out.
Next time, it's time for another Hot Take, as we ask "Is Lara Raith a good person". Join us then for more nonsense!

Hello, and welcome to Episode 10 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In our landmark 10th episode, we ask a burning question at the heart of the video game industry. Is Early Access good for the videogames industry? With the rise of Early Access as a way to bring games to market, alongside paid betas, now feels like a good time to drill down into the impact that it’s having on an industry we both care about.
Next time, we dive back into JRR Tolkien’s magnum opus, Middle Earth, and investigate just how weird family trees can get when you start adding immortality into the mix.

Hello, and welcome to Episode 9 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
This time, we strain ourselves analysing the Marvel Cinematic Universe, asking specifically who can lift Thor's mighty hammer, Mjolnir, and why. In the telling, we drift leisurely through the full spectrum of MCU films, complain about how bad the Dark World was, and question if Odin has any clue what he's doing.
Next time, we step away from fiction to ask a wider question: whether Early Access is good for the video game industry. Join us then!

Hello, and welcome to Episode 8 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In this episode, Vib and Sean ask why, given the fact that they're, you know, magic, wizards in JK Rowling's Harry Potter series hide from muggle view, rather than practicing magic in the open. It's a slightly thorny question, but our heroes navigate it with their usual deft skill and limitless tact.
Next time, things get quite weighty as we tackle Mjolnir, Thor's mighty hammer, asking who can wield it, and why.

Hello, and welcome to Episode 6 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In this episode, we struggle vainly to get to the bottom of a difficult subject in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files: Immortality. What is it, how does it work and, crucially, how do we get some? The answers (or lack thereof?) might shock you.
Next time, voyage to a galaxy far far away as our gallant hosts provide a traditional Expertise is Overrated ranking of all 12 (yes, 12!) Star Wars films. This might just be their most divisive episode yet...

Hello, and welcome to Episode 5 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In this episode, listen along as your hosts get to the bottom of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire, trying to work out in the midst of all the chaos and carnage who we should actually be rooting for. And, in what might be a first, they actually get to an answer.
Next time, Sean and Vib seek eternal life in the Dresden Files, asking "What is immortality, and how does it work". There's no way this goes wrong...

Hello, and welcome to our first ever Red Hot Reaction. These are special (and usually shorter) episodes we do as and when interesting things happen in the world of geekdom, gaming and anything we deem worthy of reaction.
Today we were very excited to see the first bit of gameplay for the upcoming Total War Warhammer 3. We are both massive fans of the series so this was right up our street. We give you our take on the trailer and the gameplay reveal and discuss what we hope to see in the game!
Thanks for listening!

Hello, and welcome to Episode 4 of Expertise is Overrated, where two nerds with an inflated sense of their own intelligence take the time to answer questions no one was asking.
In this episode, Vib and Sean provide objectively correct rankings of the Primarchs from Warhammer 40,000. In the process, they answer such vital questions as "Who really won when the Lion fought Russ" and "What even is the point of Perturabo"? Shockingly, they also agree on more rankings that you expect.
Next time, journey to the shores of Westeros, where two idiots try and work out who might be the one true hero of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.
