We have attempted to do a podcast for quite a while, but life kept getting in the way. Having the Nola Nerd Baby brought plenty of complications such as pre-partum depression and preeclampsia. We go into detail about that experience, but how our sweet baby was worth it. We also discuss briefly Black Panther, Infinity War, and Ant-Man and the Wasp. The Nola Nerd Baby made her first con appearance at MegaCon Orlando. Having a baby changes how you approach a con and we give the details of how we did it. While in Orlando, we also experienced Star Wars Galatic Nights. Finally, we discuss how Mrs. Nola Nerd Couple captured her Holy Grail of Star Wars experiences with the upcoming Star Wars Celebration Chicago.

What to do at Wizard World? People always ask us what is there to do at a comic con besides gather autographs. Well, there is the vendor and artist alley area. We always describe as a jewelry show for geeks. Then there is the programming. Celebrity panels tend to be…
We are really upset we are going to miss this year. Timing was right for us (we do have real jobs that pay money that have to take precedence over we do it because we love it job). The celebrity line up is fantastic and it boasts one of the…
