Sinopse
Throwdown Thursday is a weekly show centered around the characters in the films, books, TV, comics and more that we love, and love to hate! Patsy the Angry Nerd and Ashes von Nitemare talk-along with an occasional guest- about what impact that week's character has had on their lives, pop culture, and society as a whole. Those characters are then placed in a battle scenario in which they showcase their skills and talent against a similar opponent and the winner is decided by listener voting. Shows also include Patsy's Science Facts and The von Nitemare Vineyard Wine Recommendation!
