We’re here, guys, we’re finally here! It’s Day 1 of Comic Con 2014 and Team Nerdist is assembled and ready to go… but as everyone knows, you can’t go into battle without a group huddle. We needed a pep talk. Enter Jack Black and Kyle Gass, the Masters of Pep.

Tenacious D gave us invaluable insight into what we would need to do this weekend to stay on top of things. The speech they prepared taught us how we should handle the upcoming marathon of panels, screenings, parties and news. The speech is… rousing, to say the least. Thank you so much for your meaningful words, Jack and Kyle. We are finally ready to embark upon this journey together.

Now let’s get crazy up in this Con!

Join us for Borderlands: The Presequel themed Laser Tag every day at Petco Park from 11-5 and follow @NerdistDotCom on Twitter and Instagram for more up-to-the-minute coverage from SDCC2014! #NerdistSDCC
