We are back to close out the Obi-Wan series on Disney+. The last 3 episodes were better than the first three, but there was also some strange and confusing choices made along the way. Plus we dive into some easter eggs from other parts of the wider Star Wars canon.

Set out on the open road! We are about one month away from driving to Settle for Pokemon GO Fest 2022, and we have road tripping on the brain. We talk about some of our past trips and discuss what it takes to make a good cross country trek. 

Oh Hello there! We have been looking forward to this show for the better part of a decade, and at least for the first half, it does not disappoint. This is our first chance to go deep on Star Wars, and this week we are talking about the first three episodes of the six part Obi-Wan series on Disney+. The good, the bad, and the predictions are coming in hot.

Just in time for Memorial Day, we break out the BBQ talk. This week we discuss the finer points of preparing, smoking, and eating the national meat of Texas; brisket. King of meats. We also get into a discussion about what type of pit is a good buy, and what works for each of us.

Come home to the ancestral home of the nerds! This week is an intro into playing Dungeons & Dragons, and why we think it’s a game anyone and everyone can love.

Join us while we talk through the easiest ways get started playing.   D&D Player’s Basic Rules  Dungeon Master’s Basic Rules  D&D Beyond Discord 

Magic the Gathering has been a pillar of nerd culture for almost 30 years. We’ve played casually for 10 years, and seriously for the past 2. Why has this game endured, and what makes it special? We have a special MTG expert join us this week to hash it out.   Magic the Gathering has been a pillar of nerd culture for almost 30 years.

This week we dive into Spiderman: No Way Home. We talk about all the reasons why we love this movie, but also discuss the wild production deals that had to happen for this movie to go from being a nerdy dream to a nerdy reality.

This week we talk about an interesting phenomena in tv and movie franchises. People get excited about an interesting or funny side character, and creatives double down to give the people more of what they want. This tendency, like Urkel in Family Matters, makes a potenitally loveable character into an annoyance and detracts from other parts of the show. You will be shocked at how much this happens! Agree?
