Draft Punks

Hey folks! We've got a new format for you to check out this episode. This is a capture of our audio recording from Twitch where we let Ali and Travis debate and try to convince us of what the most chill songs are. We matched up 8 songs from each of them in a tournament bracket and voted each round to see which songs would advance to the finals. Let us know what you think!

Whoa, we're back! Happy New Year punks! As a heads up, we recorded this episode through Audacity, and Brian forgot to take any time stamps, so a couple of swears snuck in. This episode is marked as explicit, but we still wanted to warn you in case you listen with your kiddos! In this week's episode, we're joined by the inimitable Holden Hintz of How To Waste Your Time, along with Chris Bartlett of Friendly Fire, to talk about our favorite Jackbox Games!

Our extended Summer Break is over and we're back with a new episode featuring Pete of the incredible Hello Hyrule podcast! In this one, we try to make the definitive list of who should be cast in an upcoming Zelda project. The lists quickly go in *very* different, sometimes bewildering directions, but hey, we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording!

Preston and Ryan are joined by Bob Buel and Jacob McCourt to draft all things PAX East 2023! Whether it's games, food, interactions, or, yes, PINS, anything is fair game in this draft!

This week we're celebrating the wholesome games that bring us together with Janet Garcia and Haley MacLean! Whether you're listening to this during the holiday season or in the middle of summer, we want you to reach out to someone who matters to you and let them know. And we want you to know that you matter too! Thank you so much to Janet and Haley for taking time from their busy holiday schedule to join us!

The picks this week are all over the place, from an AR game that got us going outside together to a life sim that had us join forces to game the stocks and tear down racoon capitalism.

We're back baby! It's been not quite a year since our last episode of Trivia Punks, and we're bringing it back with a banger. We're joined by Jacob McCourt of the Left Behind Game Club podcast, and Video Game Trivia show on YouTube.

Listen to find out Jacob's opinion, and let us know what you'd like to see from future Trivia Punks episodes!

Travis, Preston and Brian are joined by the ever eloquent caster Vansilli in this episode to talk about their favorite Valorant agents! Who will go first?

At the end, Preston and Vansilli have a great chat about what it takes to be successful in the world of casting and esports. If it's a field that's ever interested you, you won't want to miss it!
