Video Game Logic Podcast

The boys tonight engage in a post election discussion. We let out a lot of pent up feelings we've had since Tuesday night. We absolutely understand if you don't need this right now and need to skip this week. The next episode will Discuss Fallout 76, and the following gameclub is Satisfactory. We hope you all stay safe out there. 

Rage and Jared this week continue to be old men who are tired and broken. Next week, recording day is the US election, and we're going to stress way to much over what is going to happen. Perhaps we'll record it if there is a request. We hope you stay safe out there!

In this franken/non franken episode we talk about Rage's time at the Con, a single game I played, and explain why this one is weird. Next week is this months Gameclub Episode, so if you still want to participate, you've got time to play Fallout 76!

This week it was Jared's turn to mess things up. I forgot I had an event for my kid the day we decided we would record. So I had to go do that instead. Enjoy medical stories this week, and some more US politics stuff. 

This week, Rage is on his yearly pilgrimage to his state's anime convention. We pull some franken content from a recent recording, where we get very political. Given the nature of the discussion, and the time of year it is in America, we absolutely understand if you wish to skip this one. We'll be back with anime con stories and video game BS soon!

This week its Jared's turn to disrupt the schedule. He had a family emergency that needed tending too, so you get the first chunk of franken we recorded when we recorded last weeks episode. Enjoy!

Jared is losing it, two weeks in a row he's had an outage on the new planned recording night. Enjoy some more Franken Content. It seems we're likely to move the new permanent recording night to Thursday. 

This week threw us so many curveballs. We knew we needed to get the Gameclub done, Rage's work schedules be damned! So we agreed on a different recording night to get this done. Then Spectrum has an all day outage in the entire county where I live. So, I dug around in the archives and found a franken episode that didn't have a correlating name so I think this one has sat buried and unlisted to for 2 whole years. Enjoy!

Greetings listeners! This week we have a slightly different than usual franken episode that I explain in an opening stinger. Beyond that, we hope you all have a lovely weekend, and hope to see you again next week!

This week Jared needed to handle some adulting that could only get taken care of on recording night. Damn you financial responsibility! This franken is part 1 of Jared's recent weekend adventure to a very rich family's wedding. Part 2 will show up on the next franken episode. Enjoy your week!

This week we finally get back to it. We spend a long time talking about Baldur's Gate 3, and "spolers" we love this game. We look forward to seeing how many times it shows up on the VGL Awards this year.  For Show Date: 8/13/2024    July Gameclub: Baldur’s Gate 3 Next Gameclub: Lollipop Chainsaw

Rage had a very bad work schedule this week, and we were unable to connect up for a recording. We've got a short franken episode this week, and I'm putting together some solo content for if/when we can't record. The next recorded episode is still the Baldur's Gate Gameclub, and hopefully we are recording this coming week. 

Due to severe weather in Jared's area, we couldn't trust the internet or power to stay stable enough to record this week. The Baldur's Gate Gameclub is coming in our next episode, and we're very excited to spend 40 hours discussing the game. See you soon!

This week Rage was sick, and so we get a sneak peak at some of the discussion that will happen during the Baldur's Gate gameclub episode. Jared has played D&D a lot over the years, and will be making comparisons in the main episode a lot more in detail than the one on this franken episode. Here's to feeling better next week Rage!

This week we ran a franken due to more work and life conflicts. We should return next week for the video game action you know and love!

This week we talk about a game both like, but don't really want to play anymore. Alongside some of our normal BS and a small story or two. We hope you enjoy!

This week we ran a Franken Episode due to Rage needing to close at work on Tuesday. I recorded an extra bit for the beginning, and was impressed at how good my headset mic is. It's not as good as my normal mic, but for a 40$ headset, its not bad! We'll see you next week to discuss Another Crab's Treasure!
