The Lymph Node Institute's "Nerds" Show stands as some of the finest cream of their SubGenius genius! Doc Ellis and Doktor Bugbladder explore the furtive, sweaty world of comics/SF fandom from the unblinking eye of an insider's perspective. In the "Gamers' Youth Encounter Situational Therapy" session, Doc, Bugsy, and Doktor T. Nitus use broadly drawn archetypes of the principal gamer types: The closet-case dungeonmaster, the hormone-addled nutcase, the coolly obtuse narcissist, and the fetal-balled paranoid failure, all thrown together in a snake-pit RPG session that unleashes the twisted psyches of each player in fearsome ways. Musical selections by Devo and the Butthole Surfers try like hell to offset the plangent tones of Leonard Nimoy waxing nostalgic about hobbits--but the horror that is filking takes the show straight down the greased, spasming throat of Satan, and the LNI boys add to the insanity with their own creation, "Filking in the USA."
