This month, we’re cracking open the vault on Schmoedown promos with the editor, storyteller, and emotional puppet master himselfβ€”Eric Rodriguez aka Nerd Chronic! 🎬


On Episode 25, Adelia and Josh tag in the mastermind behind the music cues, mic drops, and montages that defined the Movie Trivia Schmoedown. From cinematic hype machines to digital era adaptations, Eric walks us through how he built the Schmoedown’s visual identity one promo at a time.


We’re talking favorite edits, character arcs, emotional storytelling, and how he made trivia feel like the final round of a Rocky movie. So lace up your boots, cue the dramatic score, and get ready to remember why Schmoedown promos were half the damn show.
