Getting back to normal, Trav and Alex join forces from the very beginning of this one. Ya know? Like old times. Alex reads a lovely email from a listener and Pearl provides her insight in response. Thanks to a listener, Trav has broken the Twin Eagle mis-translation mystery wide-open! The guest for this episode is Hungry Goriya, a YouTuber and Twitch streamer growing fast in popularity! They discuss how it all began for HG, how she's always able to keep her cool, and if she really is destined for a future as a PBS narrator. The show wraps with some listener questions about handheld emulators and games that got us through college.

On this episode, Alex starts out by himself, completely clueless as usual, before Kulor warps in from nowhere! We talk for 30 minutes about chiptunes and how he got started making music, before he mysteriously warps out again... Alex is so freaked out and disoriented that his longtime girlfriend Pearl stops by to calm him down and talk some Final Fantasy VII Remake (as well as Extra Innings for SNES...?) But as soon as she leaves, Alex is back to ranting to himself before Trav stops by to get things back on a professional level, as we talk school, YouTube scheduling, and a lot more!

On this episode, it's just Trav as Alex proves to us he's not a robot, or at the very least, not a time lord. On this episode Trav gets serious for about five minutes to talk about overcoming the things that keep us from being creative and asks his guest the same. The first guest is Caleb J. Ross, an author and YouTuber, who is co-hosting an all new podcast coming to the Polykill network on May 26th (Tales of the Lesser Medium). The second guest is someone very valuable to the Cartridge Club (CartridgeClub.org) and also has a keen eye for NESfriend errors. You won't want to miss this one.

Another DrunkFriend podcast! But where's Travis? He has some actual important stuff to attend to this week, and Alex quickly realizes that this podcast business is not as easy as it sounds. As he begins to panic, he is bailed out by longtime podcaster Rob of the Classic Gaming Podcast! The two talk about how his podcast started and all the long running jokes that have developed over the years, the Final Fantasy series, being embarrassed at our early work, video game remakes, guitar stuff, and a lot more!

(Also I was overserved, maybe just a tad. I also misinterpreted Karsten's question. I blame the whiskey.)

On this week's DrunkFriend, Travis and Alex sit down with Aaron from the YouTube channel Friday Night Arcade, who tells some great stories about how he ended up learning audio production, what his YouTube experience has been like so far, and pairing video game footage with 80s TV theme songs! We answer some listener emails and questions, as well as talk about the ESPN Docu-series "The Last Dance." We get into some 90s NBA talk as Alex speaks of the highs and lows of basketball card collecting as a kid, and Trav tells a hilarious story that prominently involves Tim Hardaway's leg.

On this installment of DrunkFriend, Trav and Alex take a break from guests to check in on how each other thinks the podcast is going thus far. It's hard to get two 90's nerds together and them not talk about pro wrestling so this episode has a moderately deep dive into 90's wrestling video games as well as what got these two invested in this totally real sport as 90's kids. Earliest memories? Favorite wrestlers? What's the weather like in Albuquerque? As always, the show ends on listener questions. Send yours to [email protected]!
