    Episode 310: GG No Reread NEUROMANCER

    Liv and I return for more GG No Reread, this time in a first time experience of covering a game and a book of the same exact name. That's right, it's the classic cyberpunk novel Neuromancer by William Gibson and the monumental if less well known Commodore64/Dos/Amiga game Neuromancer! We absolutely go in on adaptation, accessibility, insights about the future, the ways books and games differ in their expression, and more and more. Cyberpunkers, unite and jack in! PS: Go watch a Let's Play hero, GamerForFun play this game at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMzapyB2VHw PPS: Head over to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oE90qAx_yNM at Wednesday Feb 4 at 930 PM EST for a live show follow up with me and Liv!

    Episode 309 - No Wall Scroll Original Flavor - Black Lagoon!

    We welcome back long distant and now returned friend Andrew (Piss) to the show along with our equally fond friend Emily (SpaceQueenEm) to talk about the phenomenal cult classic Black Lagoon -- a Madhouse special, and a true treat. Rock, Revy, and the rest killing Nazis and ramping Torpedo Boats: get ready and get excited. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Episode 308: Abide With Horses with Jack King-Spooner!

    We welcome back past beloved guest Jack King-Spooner (Dujanah; Mashina; Judero) to talk about his new game Abide and extreme media, specifically the oft-banned videogame Horses. A wide-ranging, philosophical conversation I think is well needed and timely! Keep your eyes peeled for the kickstarter for Abide! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Episode 305 - GGNoReRead Presents: House of Leaves and What Remains of Edith Finch

    Liv and Trev reconvene to put two totems of their respective forms in conversation with one another: Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves and Giant Sparrow's What Remains of Edith Finch; two works with many commonalities outside of the core premise of "what if a house was f****d up" (sorry I don't know how to do the blue text thing on here).

    We finally get our stuff together and welcome Cameron Kunzelman of The World is Born From Zero, and Ranged Touch, and games journalism, and the upcoming Everything is Permitted to the show! We kind of have a lot of fun with this one, and I'm hoping you all have as much fun as us -- stick around to the end to hear some more about Cameron's new book on the Assassin's Creed series, and pop in up top for nickname discourse, facts on who read or purchased my book, and a series of sitcom pitches.
