Food

Caitlin and Alan want to eat videogame foods. Even if they look like Christmas Tree lights! Garbage Pizza! Comfort Stars! And of course… Pancakes!

Puzzles

Caitlin and Alan say the word “puzzle” so much it becomes meaningless. Puzzles that secretly tell a story are where it is at for us. Most puzzles in games are filler but a few made us see the world differently. Bot just the game world, but the one we live in too.

Women in Games

Caitlin and Alan highlight women in video games. Women were always part of video games so we learn a little history and feature our favorite women characters.

Role Playing Games

Caitlin and Alan debate what is the essence of Role-Playing-Games? If everything could be called a role-playing game, then is there really any such thing as an RPG? We talk about the math behind the fights, character creation, and storytelling. No more time-change in parts of Canada.
