Jurassic Park Episode 3: Noob’s Book Club

Right now the show is just weekly. I’m still figuring out how to make everything work so that I can release two a week like I used to. But, for now, enjoy Jurassic Park Episode 3. This show covers the final chapters of the Second Iteration. They introduce the rest of the primary characters, including the dinosaurs.

Give it a listen and let me know what you think. What did I do right? What can be improved? I want to make this work and take constructive criticism well. With no additional delay, download and listen to Jurassic Park Episode 3. I can’t wait to hear what you think.

I might already have another book to continue this podcast. Christine keeps mentioning that she has books for me to read and use on the show. I love that everyone in my life already supports me in these silly ventures. Eventually, I’ll find my wider audience.

Note: If you want to read along, find a copy at your local (or multinational conglomerate) book store to purchase and add to the conversation. I hope you enjoy my return to the podcasting arena and I look forward to bringing more content as time allows over the next few months.

Episode 1.03 – Ixalan and Thankful

Similar to the previous episode. I released this on the first of the month, technically missing our deadline. We respect tradition here at 2 Guys Gaming. This time, we recorded at my house. 3 cats, a dog, and 3 kids plus a pellet stove means there’s a lot more ambient noise. But, it’s all brought to you with love.’ The third episode: Ixalan and Thankful.

We start by talking about the cards that we like from Ixalan. Chris talks about cards he likes. A black card that doubles damage. white removal, a god that triples tokens, and a dragon and a dragon dinosaur. I bring the Millenium Calendar, a land that uses the graveyard, and a straight busted 2 mana 8/8. Obviously, those aren’t the only cards, but they’re the highlights.

Then, we discuss some about Old School 93/94, Jason’s preferred play style. Chris, having played before, teaches me about the meta and that it is as limiting as I thought. But, it still makes me want to try some decks on xMage.

We end the discussion with things we are thankful for. Amazon sales and friends made through Magic the Gathering top the list. Read my articles on the page for more. Thanks for listening to our Ixalan and Thankful episode and join us next month for more.

2 Guys Get Spooky – Episode 1.02

After the audio issue in the last episode, we decided to get together and record in person this time. Other than the gain on the microphone being a bit low while recording (easily remedied), everything came out much better. Enjoy 2 Guys Get Spooky.

First, we talk about childhood trauma related to horror movies. Then, we discuss a few other franchises before moving on to our favorite horror movie of all time. We both agree that it is Shaun of the Dead.

There’s a brief talk about television shows, mainly the Walking Dead. We both agree that the show never was that good and we even lost faith in the comic. But, Chris mentions some other comics that he likes in the horror genre. I never read many horror comics, so I let him take the wheel in this segment.

Finally, we talk about video games. Chris tells a story from when he first saw me playing Fatal Frame. We both think it is probably the scariest game out there. Chris hates Resident Evil much more than I do, so I let him get that out of his system.

Finally, we wrap up with the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror. No matter how much you think the Simpsons sucks now, the Halloween episode never disappoints. Thanks for listening to 2 Guys Get Spooky and we’ll talk to you again in a few weeks to discuss the new Ixalan set from Magic the Gathering.

Dragons of Fate Episode 13: Noob’s Book Club

A bit late on the finale, Dragons of Fate Episode 13. But, I am extremely busy right now and I don’t see myself getting any less busy until at least January. So, for now, enjoy this one and get ready for Jurassic Park this weekend. All I will say here is great ending to a great book. Can’t wait for the next one.

I chose my next book for Noob’s Book Club. Quinn loves Jurassic Park and he asked for the novels. I planned to buy them for Christmas, but Christine got them. As he read, he told me about the books. I last read them when the movie came out, 30 years ago. I forget much of what was in the book, so I plan to read that one next in the series.

Dragons of Fate Episode 9: Noob’s Book Club

A day late (but not a dollar short). Better late than never, as they say. Dragons of Fate Episode 9 starts to reveal that history has been changed, but that effect on the future (present?) remains to be seen. In this episode, I explore my relationship with a fictional character some. Raistlin used to be my favorite (before he went off the deep end), but in this series, Magius wins out. Episode 10 on Wednesday. Only 4 episodes left!
