About this listen

 Nate and Matt are two relatively non-toxic, non-confrontational Gen Xers working in the arts and tech industries. They consider themselves "good guys"—often to a fault. But in a world that's more science fiction than fact, more dystopian than utopia, will Good Guys actually Finish Last? F&%k that! They have a better idea: to sit around and bitch about all the worst clients, terrible software, stupid stupid current events, people with narcissistic personality disorder, and more. Will they find a positive spin amidst the piles and piles of lame? Tune in to find out.2021 © the negative nerds Economics

    The Negative Nerds s1e3: The Nihilist Nerds?
    May 27 2022

    Is Matt a Nihilist, a Cynic, or Pessimist? None of the above? And what do you do when you have a great experience in a job that you're trying to quit? The "Last Gasp Gig"?

    This podcast was recorded and (barely) edited by the incredible app called Descript. We're not sponsored by them, but that link you just passed is an affiliate, and we think you'd really like it.

    The music that begins and ends this episode, entitled Apocalyptica, is from the incredibly talented musician/producer/entrepreneur/fellow negative nerd Michael Winger.
