Something a little different - this 'Interlude' episode is a roundtable of some us and friends - join us as we hang out and talk about some gaming, sci-fi television and film, and a few other segues wherever we end up. 

Special guest Mike joins us as Brandon is away on a Top Secret Mission. We talk about gaming with kids and some ideas of how to bring that Arcade feel to your home. 

Upgrades - we talk about when we upgrade hardware and replace parts, and when do to major software updates. A revelation about Ken's computer is revealed. Also the new Star Wars game is a great movie?

No topic, just banter - We touch briefly on our Dreamcast experience, play with Alexa some, talk about Telltale Games and 7 Days to Die by the Fun Pimps  and banter about Superhero TV series.

Brandon Loves Death Stranding, Patrick Hates Red Dead, Ken wants to go see the Dungeon Siege movie over and over again. Oh, and we also we all talk nostalgia about gaming when we were kids.

We’re joined by repeat guest Justin, and review some games we think most people have not played. Also amidst the slew of various media remakes, we pine for games that should be remastered for current hardware.

The Crew reminisce about video game memories.

Show Notes / Links:

We discuss Cancel Culture (aka Callout Culture or Name-and-Shame) with a focus about how it applies to Video Gaming - what it is,  how it's being weaponized - for good or bad. 

Honorable mention game music:

This episode the gang talks about the Podcast itself… because we like  to talk about ourselves. Find out what happened to Jim Stories, how we  come up with ideas, get guests, and some special thanks to people that  have (sometimes unknowingly) helped up along the way. We also have a  listener-requested Public Service Announcement on Gaming and Aging.
