It all started with a Post-it note sketch in the bowels of a university. A mild mannered mail carrier and an unassuming desk assistant became fast friends bonding over comics, movies, food and everything in between.

And thus Motor Mouth Podcasting was born!

Tim Girard

Podcaster, Composer, and Co-Founder

Tim has been a nerd pretty much since he was born (in one his earliest childhood pictures, he is in a Spider-Man swimming pool... and he’s had glasses since he was 3). Since he couldn’t make money reading comics and watching movies in his bedroom, he decided to make a living in music. After getting a BM in Composition from the University of Rhode Island, he ‘tried to make it as a professional composer’ (read: worked at the Blockbuster Video in his hometown). Since getting a degree in Composition worked out so well for him the first time, he decided to move all the way to Colorado to get another, more expensive one (this time, an MM!) from DU’s Lamont School of Music in 2013. He is one of the three voices you’ll hear when listening to Nerds That Geek’s Movie Mumble podcast, and he also composed its theme music. He has also written some music for short films and video games (don’t worry, nothing you’ve heard of) and he dreams of one day composing the film score to the 12th reboot of Spider-Man.
