Hello Gamer Friends! We've got a double spoilercast for two shows that are well past the need for any spoiler warnings. First up, we talk with our MCU Correspondent Jay to talk Secret Invasion and close out with season 2 of Loki.

We're alive! Your Gamer Friends return to share some updates. Basically, last year was the worst year of our lives. Everything sucks! Not even two Spider-Men could save 2023. But, we're back, and we're going to talk about it all, including a very informal recap of our gaming adventures last year as well as a haphazard yet well deserved crowning of Game of the Year.
If you don't want to hear about our clinical depression, jump to 35:45 to get to the games.

We're recording again the weekend this episode releases and will have some more gamer content for you soon! Thanks for your patience and all the love.

This time, your Gamer Friends are joined by friend of the show and D&D correspondent, KetracelBlack, to get caught up on the recent OGL drama between Wizard's of the Coast, pretty much every other tabletop game company, and the TTRPG community at large. From the origins of the OGL and initial skirmishes between players and their corporate overlords to this year's absolute blowup, Jay has you covered.
Oh, and yeah, we're gonna be playing some D&D for the pod. We keep dancing around it but we might as well confirm it for those of you who read the show notes.

We're back with a huge episode to close out the year! Big Nkrumah's favorite Cities: Skylines content creator, Few Candy, is here to discuss her hugely successful first year on YouTube, her next big project, and what it was like being contacted by Colossal Order, the game's developers.

Your Gamer Friends are back to recap and discuss Wakanda Forever and Phase 4 of the MCU! Well, minus AudioNerd -- he got a fancy new job making the official Black Panther: Wakanda Forever podcast, so he doesn't want to be associated with our foolishness on this one.

Happy Halloween! To close out spooky season, AudioNerd and Big Nkrumah are talking about the horrific allegations surrounding the imminent release of Bayonetta 3 and the scary (not really) prospect of James Gunn taking over the DC film universe. Also, have you noticed how queer Apex Legends and Destiny are? We certainly have! With the launch of Apex Legend's newest trans character, Catalyst, and Destiny's latest season featuring a queer mom, we decided it was time to talk about it. What are the benefits and limitations of queer representation in these games? You'll have to listen to hear the answer [spoiler alert: there is no answer].

Yeah, our spoilercasts are just episodes now! This week, your Gamer Friends are joined by friend of the show @JenYetAgain (https://twitter.com/jenyetagain) to discuss the joy that was She-Hulk, and what she represents for a lot of different Marvel fans. We also dig our claws into Werewolf By Night, the new Halloween special. We don't want to spoil the spoilercast, so that's the only description you're getting. Don't forget -- if you're a patron, our She-Hulk finale listen-along is now live!

It's that time again!

If you're a Patron, you already have access to a video of Professor Dumptruck, Enya (Edna), and Big Nkrumah playing through the first two Phasmophobia levels.

Join your Gamer Friends as they embark on the first episode with the new format! This time, we're joined by friend of the show and Dungeon Master @KetracelBlack (https://twitter.com/ketracelblack) to discuss the recent Dungeons & Dragons controversy surrounding the Hadozee, a race of space monkeys that some claim to be racist charicatures of Black people. We talk about the origins of the drama, the merits of the arguments against the Hadozee and other race-focused play in D&D, as well as other similar trends going on in the tabletop space. For more context, check out the links in the show notes.

Hey Gamer Friends! This episode we're "Logging On" with the releases of Sniper Elite 5, Roller Champions, Industria, Mario Strikers: Battle League, The Quarry, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge.

There are literally too many games to list, so we won't!
