  • Summary

  • Join us every other week as we convene the 'video game book club.' Each episode is structured around a topic: anything from 'Trust' to 'Robots' to 'Body Parts'. Listen in as your hosts each bring a game to the table that they think exemplifies that topic in some way. Give us a shot and remember, games are just metaphors.

    Ok folks, it appears we've made a si able mistake. Somehow in making jokes about an invisible , we've seemingly made all s we try to type invisible. We were just goofing, you know, just getting ja y with our words. I don't know what deity has caused this. None of us are particularly ealous in our religious beliefs, yet this certainly implies some kind of digital force that has messed with what we can or cannot do. If it wouldn't cause a ba illion emails to get sent to us, I'd blame "Arthur Smarts" for this.

    In this episode: David hits the wall, Giovanni has heard enough, Tess keeps trying, Greg has gotta go fast.

    Games discussed: Elden Ring, Sea of Thieves, HYPER DEMON, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Arbitrary yet enjoyable

A meandering of topics from the crazy game world to the inane blandness of U2 free downloads. Never a disappointing trip through the mind meld of these dudes.
