Podcast Live
Hi Friends, So as Lorena said, I was on top of things and indeed got great seats to be in the same room as Tom. It was so fantastic that a few weeks later, I’m feeling sick so as Chris Hardwick said, I must be pregnant.
I had an extra ticket so Nikki came with me. It’s not surprising to see how many people were here to see Tom more than Maisie Williams or Guillermo del Toro. I saw someone walking towards us and hit Nikki saying OMG look. It was like Patinson-pants lady went to the next level. She had an great likeness of Loki/Hiddelston tattoo on her arm. I’m all about tats. Symbols, words, passages, things that mean enough to permanently keep on your body. I’m trying to figure out how to do the deathly hallows, a doctor who something, and Tolkien. But Loki? Yes, I’m judging. I mean I love Tom as much as the next person, but… I tried to get a photo of it but alas, it was not meant to be.
The podcast was so funny that time went so quickly. I’d say it was over before I knew it but there was a giant head in front of me who couldn’t hold still that kept moving and making the experience a bit miserable. The lighting also completely washed out every photo I did manage to get.
I promise, Tom is sitting at that table.
While they said no video, luckily Chris Hardwick knew that people would be filming and asked tumblr to get on a few things. GdT is really funny and really loves the “F” word. He also loves embarrassing Tom and made all of us go awww… a lot. Here are some of my favorite parts:
Puppies
GdT was asked how Tom’s fanbase would like seeing him in an evil role, he answered and said “I think they will like him no matter what he does… They could see a picture of him grinding puppies in a dark alley and the internet would go awww, Puppies.”
Serious Questions
We also got the answer to a serious question from what’s in Crimson Peak. You see some things in the trailer… but Matt asked about the pokey stick!
At the end, Tom, who is so theater, had to curtsy on the way out.

The internet is still waiting…
While any GoT fan is on “hair watch”, which Maisie helps us with the weather! Will it rain? Will it SNOW?
Internet where is the Maisie Williams “Will it Rain-No it won’t” gif I’ve been waiting for since the @nerdist podcast on Saturday?

There is so much more from darling Maisie which I’m sure you’ll listen to but as this is time for Tom, that’s all we have time for!
Give the whole thing a listen, the link to podcast is HERE. Just in case you need it, there is some language… and a castle that lies yonder that I may or may not want to visit 😉 (14:40-ish give-or-take)
