Gonna Catch ’em All! (Eventually? Maybe?)

(Note: Gotta catch ’em all? Yeah, right. I couldn’t catch ’em all when there were only 150 of ’em. I have no chance at this point.) On this month’s Noob and Sons (recorded over the weekend and most likely to be posted later in the week), we dedicated the whole show to Pokemon. The crazy […]

Episode 1 – Halloween Spooktacular

Enjoy your Halloween leftovers (I think those exist.  I might be confusing my holidays.)  with the first episode of Noob and Sons.  After talking briefly about our favorite parts of Halloween, we talked about the following.

Living a Childhood Dream

(Note: A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, a father and his two sons pretended that they were heroes in the Star Wars universe.

Who ya gonna call?

(Editor’s Note: With the (un)official status of 2 Guys Gaming very much up in the air, Christine suggested that I do a podcast with the boys. Be on the lookout for Episode 1 of Noob and Sons, most likely tomorrow.) Being a gamer dad can sometimes be a delicate balancing act. When the children were

Dice, Dice Baby

(Editor’s Note: Depending on the demographics of our audience, that might be a severely bad reference. Either way, it’s a bit of a stretch, I admit.) I went to Wal*Mart a couple of days ago.

Button Mashers Beget Button Mashers

(Editor’s Note: Apologies again for our silence this week. I’ve been dealing with end of semester stuff. Hopefully I can maintain the schedule of posting twice over the next two weeks. If not, I’ll definitely be back when finals are over.) My family took me to a local arcade (yes, they still exist!) for my

On the Tabletop – We’re taking a break on the tabletop from Magic for a month to talk about our first impressions of Heroclix.  More on the game in a couple of months! The Digital Playground – We might only be kids at heart, but we shower the Lego video games with plenty of love!

We Are Builders of (Lego) Worlds

(Editor’s Note: This was supposed to be posted yesterday, but it was VSL night and I crashed after that. Sorry.) We recorded Episode 5 of the podcast this past weekend. I’m in the process of editing it and it should be live by next weekend. Hopefully, because it is a busy one with a Cub
