Listen to our first ever special episode with a very memorable guest!  Ed Greenwood, legendary creator of Forgotten Realms, the biggest D&D setting ever created, joins Ken, Jay and Marie for a chat about his new, revolutionary publishing venture!  But Ed stepped onto Planet X and was therefore also subjected to games, swearing and silliness. He fit in perfectly and shared personal stories and crazy anecdotes.  Don't miss the fun!

Sunday, October 18, 2015

Episode 19

Exciting news on the DC front - Arrow finally called himself the Green Arrow! Well, okay, that's not at all exciting. Which is why we also discuss loads of other cool geek news, like Star Wars Battlefront, King Kong vs. Godzilla, and the recently announced Hellfire and Legion shows, plus lots more!

Ken's beer of the week was Shock Top's Pumpkin Wheat, a delight that left him (mostly) coherent.

Episode 13

Lucky 13! We play it fast and loose by chatting about Marvel's meltdown, Doctor Who and Wes Craven.  Jay asked Marie and Ken some quick fire questions, and forced them to decide terribly difficult geeky things. It was horrible. There *may* have been tears.
