In the mix in 66: Ray tells off the neighbor as best he can; get ready for Homeland Week II!; reports from the Seattle Retro Gaming Expo and the awful potential bar site; Alex attempts to entertain a seminar crowd; we take a long moment to discuss Al's demons (or heading them off); the rebirth of our alma mater, and another quite eventless round of The Balcony is Closed. This podcast has variable depths for easy shipping.
We're 65 and primed to retire! Alex crashes and burns at a pub quiz; Ray's sunsets seemingly Sisyphean SCROLL shipping; our new segment "Sh*t My Alex Says"; helping out at the international school; the new Japanese busses are in!; further wedding blunders, and the Balcony is Short! Forgive this podcast O Lord, it knows not what it does.
64 bits! Of conversation! The next generation of No More Whoppers episodes touches on Kickstarter fulfillment; old game magazines; how not to use IC payment cards in Japan; World Warzes; Final Fraioli Five; and more of the comedy of errors we call The Balcony is Closed. This podcast is free with any large drink purchase.
Fade in: two ruffians pull into town driving a '63 NMW. Alex lays plans to gay-wed millions; the launch of SCROLL 10; gearing up for the revival of Retronauts; DQX on PC and possible passing of the X in 10 mantle; a Grumpy requiem; scraping the bottom of the naming barrel; Alex finds and rejects a potential bar location; more OJT at Genesis; a slice of Fan fun, and The Balcony is Tepid! This podcast is not religious, but it is spiritual.
Just like there's 62 ways to skin a cat, we do our 62nd way to record a podcast. Ray returns from the E3 gameapalooza with... not much to say about that, but Alex is ready to go off about birthday shopping for the two most important people in his life; his extreme apartment makeover; and interning at the bar and dabbling in video game mixology. Plus! Donor recognitions return, and another surprising round of The Balcony is Closed! This podcast will, in time, learn the error of its ways.
In this very special episode, Alex entertains his friend of 50 years, Smoo! These ancient chums discuss the fragile internet cafe; Smoo's experiences in FFXIV; Alex's first wedding as a fake priest; HD remasters and current/next-gen gaming; the origin of Smoo; a Philly cheesesteak verdict; fears of sharks, heights, and cars, and a very intimate episode of The Balcony is Closed! This podcast will totally go to the 7th and 8th grade dance with you.
In our 61st soirée, we hit the ground stumbling! The boys discuss wasting away in margheritaville; Alex samples the largest legally available Red Bull in Japan; the health benefits of cranberry juice; iCompass iNeptitude; getting lost in the porn district; apologies to Mrs. Shadowlaw; the complexity of Japanese men's magazines and the elusive beard; Fraioli frequents filthy festivals; scams and schemes; a heated argument re: colossi, and a stunning reversal in The Balcony is Closed! This podcast can be enjoyed for up to 24 hours without connecting to the internet.
60 men enter, two leave! And they can only talk about silly things like a Nihonland Weekend postmortem; chilling tales from Ray's flight; bartender etiquette; organizing the game bar; Alex takes himself out to the ballgame; Ray is summoned, and the new face of Fan Fun, including an apology to, oh, about 30 of our listeners.
