    Meeting Master Chief: A TORG Gaming Expo Recap

    Episode 14 - Welcome to another exciting episode. This episode I talk about how I went to Torg Gaming Expo in Columbus, OH to meet the voice actors for Halo. I got to meet Master Chief, Cortana, 343 Guilty Spark and the multiplayer announcer. I also went around the expo and explored all the vendors to which I picked up a couple of games I was looking for. The vendors were 80% video games and there must of been over 100. Plenty to see and buy. I also review a new beer from War Pigs Brewing called Blinding Light Show. - brewed with orange and lemon peels. It is a hazy and it weighed in at 7.5% ABV. This is my first time trying it since it came in a multipack from War Pigs. So listen in to see if this is a good beer that I will get again or a one time try. Follow me on Twitch!

    The Dawn of Halo Studios – What This Means for the Future of Halo

    Episode 13 - Welcome to the latest episode. It was a very surprising weekend if you watched the Halo World Championship and saw the ViDoc video at the very end of the tournament with the head of 343 making an appearance. Now 343 Industries is Halo Studios. In this episode I talk about how I feel this will be a good thing for the Halo franchise and also why the studio name change, the changing of the engine to Unreal Engine 5 and also the future of Halo. I also try out a new beer from New Belgium Hoppy 12 Pack. It is the Electric Thunderclap IPA. This beer is probably just a limited one they sell in their Hoppy variety pack.
