The Nerds Are Typing

The Nerds Are Typing is a weekly podcast where sunshine/grumpy besties Connie and Delia dive deeper into their favorite fictional works and critically analyze characters through the lens of the Enneagram and Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). From Lord of the Rings, to Harry Potter, to Avatar: the Last Airbender, to Legendborn, to Sailor Moon—no fandom will be left untyped. Warning: there will be pit stops at Hogwarts Houses, astrology, and mess!
