  • Grief is Hard, Breh...
    Jul 14 2023

    So man, the shit has been hitting the fan a lot lately, but I've been getting good at grieving, and you know what? It's working!

    In this episode--now that I have the "spoons to do so", I go back through the last week, Introduce myself as the "Black Autistic Polymath", and invite you to stay around and join me next time. 

    I would love to play, join me!

    Myron, 

    Black Autistic Polymath.

  • Something Something Something... "Are We There Yet Tho?"
    Jul 13 2023
    And so, this is the reconciliation part of truth and reconciliation. You don't get to enter back into the lives of people until you are there. And, I have to tell you, we absolutely know when you are. And I owe the very concept of my personhood to two people, who showed me the path..."because I had to" (-Morpheus). Because, like him, he was willing to give everything he could. J.O. and J.P., this is exactly what you meant. Together we can do amazing things, but we have to actually know what being "together" means, when it comes to these things. The two of you introduced me to the fact that there are, more types of brown people than there are stars in the sky. You just have to do the work to find them. Now, I am taking a break, so that I can finish my Expert blah blah blah (super important thing I actually spent POUNDS STERLING in 2019, before the value dropped), so that my business can have more options and potential to serve more people. But, while I'm gone, I'm gonna run back some re-runs. However, I want you to watch for something. I want you to watch for the moment the visibly white people began to believe the show was more valuable than I could be trusted to be involved. In other words, when the value of the neighborhood got high enough, I was no longer welcome there. Or not. If you're not there, these were still amazing shows. So, enjoy! Oh, and Tyson, I know you are hurting. You have a full story and life of pain to unpack. Your words are dust to me, because no adult would punish a 9 year old for trying to learn how to work through feelings. You see Tyson, I know you were never nurtured. And you had to raise yourself, by yourself, becuase no was is ever paying attention to the middle child, especially when you have a fucking rocket scientist candidate oldest, and a fucking space cadet the youngest. You were erased, and for that I empathize with you. But you are dust, sir. I am "literally unbelievable", but sir, I do not have magic, and I cannot speak to ghosts. Silly, rabbit.

  • This... Is... The Intermission, Mothafucka!
    Jul 12 2023

    Words are funny things. Riddle me this, which one of these is meant to offend you directly:
    -My: This... Is... The Intermission Mothafucka!
    -Dick: This... Is... The Intermission, Mothafucka!

    Everything is made up. Did you see what I did there? It'll take you a while to figure it out. Or not.

    Oh, and public service announcement, prioritize rest like you do work. It helps you to amazing things.

  • Then, Came The Fucking Fire...
    Jul 11 2023

    Hello, 

    My name is Myron. I am a Black Autistic Polymath. This is what I was doing when Chris Cormier, Sherri Cormier, and Matt McKenzie [allegedly] manipulated my wife and literally stole my show.

    If you know any of these people, I speak about while I speak my truth. Demand they tell you the truth, but hold us both accountable. Be transparent. I am not the one under indictment. Be honest, would you allow this theft to happen if the victim was white and the criminal was black? I expect, demand that you hold me to the scrutiny. 

    I am calling all of you motherfuckers out. And, I will not speak with you alone. You will all speak to me, as a group. And witness what you are capable of. Enjoy.

    And a bunch of shit about who I am. 

    Thank you, or Good Bye.

    I have nothing left for your white feelings.

  • In The Beginning, There Was Darkness...
    Jul 10 2023

    I [allege] Chris Cormier, Sherri Cormier and Matt McKenzie tried to steal my podcast.

    We start this chapter with you as the witnesses. Witness what white people do to people like me.

    What did I do to deserve this? Ask them. Demand Justice. There are no half measures.

    Demand for them all to speak and face, with accountability, what they have done. Do it transparently. I am willing, available and committed to the same scrutiny from you all. I am calling them out.

    Chris, Sherri and Matt, Join Anna and I, and our community, to discuss what happened. I demand accountability.

    This is an episode I did to show that I am a person, and have a full range of emotions. None of my emotions are a threat. Yet, I want to ask yourself this: were you afraid of seeing my anger?

    Why do you think that is the case?

  • The Magic of Gaming with Chris Kingsnorth
    Oct 2 2022

    This episode with Chris was dope. We really had a great discussion, again, focused on systems of game development and some crossover into his past life, as the holder of "a certain kind of skills, that are literally unbelievable super science lab stuff!" 

    We laughed, we cried in this one. There's something for everyone. 

    Enjoy this Kickback!

  • Playing to Win with Anna Raymer-Parks
    Jul 12 2022

    This is a little throwback to "simpler days". Enjoy the show while I'm resting y'all!

     

    In this episode Chris and Myron welcome Anna Raymer-Parks to the show. Anna is a lover of games and competition, having grown-up in a family of card-players. She also happens to be Myron’s wife and a member of the Board Game Chats team. Chris explains why he thinks Anna is an omni-gamer, and the label really seems to fit well. Whether it’s playing cards, boardgames, video games, or even lawn-darts, Anna loves to play and to win. She’s also on a mission to rebut some of Myron’s less complimentary commentary from past episodes of the show. Join us to get the true story about Anna’s infamous Loonacy concussion, and whether she’s really as competitive as we’ve been led to believe.

  • Playing with Perspective - with Christopher Chung
    Nov 11 2021

    This episode was amazing. Chris totally threw down. Once I figured out he understands the production system for launching tabletop experiences, we went to town. We even got Chris's dream team on the leaderboard!

    Let's Go!
