    Still Loading #404: 007 First Light w/ Thrak

    You all knew this coming. It HAD to happen. It's finally here. My nearly 3 hour episode on the new James Bond game, 007 First Light. I have been anticipating this game for quite some time and I'm not gonna lie ya'll it did not let me down even in the slightest. It lived up to all my hopes for it. Joining me to break down this game in all it's glory is returning friend of the show and fellow Bond fanatic Thrak from The 3DO Experience podcast and the Call of Duty Thrak Ops podcast. We talk about how this game feels like James Bond in every way possible. We talk about how the gameplay makes you feel like Bond, the sound design, the cinematic nature of the game and so much more. We do a big spoiler dive into the story of the game as well which we do shoutout clearly before we dive in. If you love James Bond like I do you will not want to miss this episode.

    Still Loading #403: Pokémon Go w/ Jared Moss

    Ten years ago the world felt a little brighter. Ten years ago Pokémon Go came out and took the world by storm. It was a game that crossed generation gaps, got people up and moving and out in their neighborhoods. It encouraged us to explore areas we thought we knew only to discover new things about our own towns. Jared Moss from Play Along Podcast joins me for this one to chat about all things Pokémon Go! And for it's 10th anniversary we also solicited some clips from friends of the show! So get out the door, put this podcast on and catch some Pokémon, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

    Still Loading Mini #59: The Super Mario Bros. Super Show E13

    Don't underestimate Toad. He may just get a super star and become... THE TOAD WARRIOR! It's another Mario Super Show episode! And of course I am joined by my co-host with the mo-host Dexter Morrill to break down this wild episode. Between robotic love interests, eating nothing but dry pasta, pasta sauce being gasoline and so much more, this episode goes (well drives) places you wouldn't expect. Follow Dexter on social media!

    Still Loading #402: Trace Memory w/ Derek Van Dyke

    This episode's origin is TRACED back to my patrons! See what I did there? Truly awful jokes aside... This week on the show I am chatting about the Nintendo DS launch game Trace Memory which was chosen by my patrons for this episode. I am joined by fellow podcaster Derek Van Dyke to help me break down everything this game has to offer. From gimmicky DS controls (That actually work well?) to a simple but engaging story, we dissect what works and doesn't work about this often overlooked title.

    Still Loading #401: Mario 101 w/ Drew Mackie

    Some of my favorite episode topics are the ones I couldn't think of. This week on the show I am joined by Drew Mackie from the blog, Thrilling Tales of Old Video Games to talk about his recently released article, Mario 101. In Mario 101, Drew lays out a series of 101 obscure and fun Mario facts over the course of 40,000 words. This is the kind of topic I never would have thought of, which makes it the perfect topic for me to cover on the show. This type of super niche, hyper specific research is my jam and I when I reached out to Drew about coming on the show for a game (something we have yet to plan) we asked if we could talk about this and I jumped at the chance to. This was a really fun conversation about a side of Mario you don't really see. This is Mario 101.

    Still Loading #400: Matt Gourley

    We have made it another hundred episodes! For the past few mile marker episodes Ive been focusing on people that have helped me on my podcasting journey and helped make the show what it is and this episode's guest is no different. I am joined by probably my favorite podcaster of all time for this episode, Matt Gourley. Matt and I talk about how he got started in podcasting, unexpected challenges in podcasting, how he became a part of Conan O'Brien's podcast and we are even joined by a famous deceased author! Matt was absolutely wonderful and you should go listen to his plethora of podcasts. Superego, I Was There Too, James Bonding, With Gourley and Rust, Pistol Shrimps Radio, Mallwalkin', Bonanas for Bonanza, Keys to the Kingdom, Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend.

    Still Loading Mini #58: The Legend of Zelda Cartoon E12

    The moblins are revolting! For the penultimate episode of Dexter and I's look into the Legend of Zelda cartoon we are breaking down episode 12, "The Moblins are Revolting!". I won't sugar coat it, this is probably the worst episode of the Zelda cartoon in a while. Not even the legendary horror icon Elvira could save it either. Follow Dexter on social media!

    Still Loading #399: From Pixels to Prose w/ Nadia Oxford

    I obviously love video games and one thing that I wish there was more of a focus on in the online gaming discourse is what other benefits we get from gaming besides the social aspects and hand dexterity etc. In this episode I got to chat with friend of the show Nadia Oxford about her recently released book "From Pixels to Prose: What Video Games Taught Me About Storytelling" from Retro Game Books, which dives into an element of what I mentioned prior, video games teaching us about media in ways we may not expect. I had a lot of fun chatting with Nadia about her book, about what videos have taught her about storytelling and writing and about who she hopes this book will appeal to. Please go check out her book, its funny, insightful and a wonderful read all around.
