Between holidays, sickness, weather and a serious case of the blahs, it’s been awhile. But there is hope. Here is Episode 05 where our hosts tackle how to handle little geeks who are struggling to handle what is and isn’t socially acceptable to their peers.

We hope you enjoy our thoughts on the process of supporting them without smothering them in their sleep.

 

Topic - In this episode, Mack and Steve accidentally drop some content bombs on our horizon that include a Godzilla game that sounds fantastic and Alignment Discussion version 1.5 occurs.  As a result, we didn't quite make it to the topic that we'd planned so we decided to figure out the location of that pesky missing plane!

Hosts - Dan, Mack, Bryan, Steve, and Lucas
