Magic the Gathering turned 30 this year…but not actually. We will get to that controversy and the giant convention that Kyle attend this week. We go REALLY deep on the Magic talk so be warned this might not be for everyone. However, if you like Magic or conventions about nerdy stuff, this one is for you.

We are back! Sorry, but Kyle was kidnaped by pirates. That is not actually what happened, but we will get into it before talking about how favorite game of 2021: Valheim. This indie darling swept the world by storm last year talking many game-of-the-year accolades. No surprise, this game is amazing, and we talk about all the things we love about it.

Baywatch Nights is a masterpiece of a time capsule that was the nineteen hundred and nineties, and I will hear no slights against it! Seriously, the mysterious nature of this how has catapulted this two season show into meme cult status, but we wanted to understand how this show got made and who it was for. In watching it (all shows up on YouTube) we learned so much about the time period, television, and discovered there was actually some good stuff too. Also, season 2 was a cocaine fueled...

College football season is here, and there are fewer things in this world that bring us as much joy (and crushing disappointment) as our favorite sport. Still, for those not part of the college football cult, deep investment in armature sports might seem odd. This week we take a look at the sport, what makes it unique, why we love it, what it could improve, and where this strange game is going.

Sharpen your hammers, it’s time to talk about Thor Four the Thoring. This movie truly is an odd duck. Infused with Taika Waititi energy from start to finish, it’s a little like Ragnarok, but mostly this movie is its own thing for good and ill. After some time to stew on it, we are finally ready to talk about this entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Check out James’ Instagram for graphic design.

Sharpen your axe and grab the hoe! It’s time to do some farming. We are talking about Stardew Valley this week. This indie game took the world by storm in 2016, and has cultivated a cult like following owing to its charming art, great characters, and fun game play. This game is something that can appeal to anyone. Ash joins us this week to talk all about our favorite farm game. Check out James’ Instagram for graphic design.

GO Fest 2022 is a wrap! We talk about the event, the gameplay, and the people on the show this week. Also, deranged road trippers that we are, our band of 3 drove from Las Vegas to Seattle and back again. We have a lot to say about our journey, but I can sum it up by saying this past week I learned two important things; the unparalleled beauty of the American West and that 1982’s “Gloria” by Laura Branigan slaps.

This show is a throw back to our Pokemon GO roots so we can call it Pokemon GO Radio 281! We are so excited for Pokemon GO Fest 2022 in Seattle this week. In order to get back into the swing of things, we brought a real expert to the show. DPhiE is a Pokemon GO podcaster, streamer, PVP expert, and all around super cool person. We talk about the game and our expectations for this GO Fest. Follow DPhiE @DPhiE250 and check her out every week on the GoCast podcast.

This week we are talking about one of the greatest animated series that you might not have ever seen before. Over the Garden Wall is a short mini series that premiered on Cartoon network in 2014 to great acclaim. The art style, music, writing, and voice acting are truly incredible. If you watch these ten about eleven minute episodes, you will not regret it. Over the Garden Wall is literally a masterpiece. Twitter – @BonusEpisodePod Email – [email protected]

Happy Birthday to our homeland this fourth of July. Just like with all family members, there are things we love and things that bring us deep, personal shame. Yet, we take this opportunity to celebrate some interesting American history. Some odd, some heroic, and some stories from the past that are shockingly still familiar. This podcasts celebrates our love of this country and the study of history.

We are back to close out the Obi-Wan series on Disney+. The last 3 episodes were better than the first three, but there was also some strange and confusing choices made along the way. Plus we dive into some easter eggs from other parts of the wider Star Wars canon.

Set out on the open road! We are about one month away from driving to Settle for Pokemon GO Fest 2022, and we have road tripping on the brain. We talk about some of our past trips and discuss what it takes to make a good cross country trek. 

Oh Hello there! We have been looking forward to this show for the better part of a decade, and at least for the first half, it does not disappoint. This is our first chance to go deep on Star Wars, and this week we are talking about the first three episodes of the six part Obi-Wan series on Disney+. The good, the bad, and the predictions are coming in hot.

Just in time for Memorial Day, we break out the BBQ talk. This week we discuss the finer points of preparing, smoking, and eating the national meat of Texas; brisket. King of meats. We also get into a discussion about what type of pit is a good buy, and what works for each of us.

This week Bethany and Mark talk about the CBS mainstay, Survivor. This show has been on the air for over 20 years with 42 season. We discuss how this simple concept has thrived and made some incredible tv moments.  A Guide to Binge-Watching Survivor

This week we dive into the insanity of the multiverse and discuss the latest Marvel movie. The good parts, the bad parts, the weird parts, and the departures from the stock Marvel formula

Come home to the ancestral home of the nerds! This week is an intro into playing Dungeons & Dragons, and why we think it’s a game anyone and everyone can love. I too once counted myself as a skeptic of this game, but after a couple good friends showed me the light, I am fixated. Join us while we talk through the easiest ways get started playing.   D&D Player’s Basic Rules  Dungeon Master’s Basic Rules  D&D Beyond Discord 

Magic the Gathering has been a pillar of nerd culture for almost 30 years. We’ve played casually for 10 years, and seriously for the past 2. Why has this game endured, and what makes it special? We have a special MTG expert join us this week to hash it out.   Magic the Gathering has been a pillar of nerd culture for almost 30 years.

This week we dive into Spiderman: No Way Home. We talk about all the reasons why we love this movie, but also discuss the wild production deals that had to happen for this movie to go from being a nerdy dream to a nerdy reality.

This week we talk about an interesting phenomena in tv and movie franchises. People get excited about an interesting or funny side character, and creatives double down to give the people more of what they want. This tendency, like Urkel in Family Matters, makes a potenitally loveable character into an annoyance and detracts from other parts of the show. You will be shocked at how much this happens! Agree? Disagree? Hit us up on Twitter @BonusEspiodePod or email us [email protected]

Mark and Kyle freed from the bonds of making a show that people actually wanted, set out on a self-indulgent exploration of the weird shit they care about deeply and possibly too much. This week we explore the cop comedy sitcom Brooklyn 99, and try to understand why this tv show is so incredibly good. Follow us on Twitter @BonusEpisodePod

Ha. I had Nar write this part and he was all “that takes like 30 seconds.” Maybe the way you do it ya trash. Obviously I’m not going to use what he wrote. What a time it’s been. I’ll miss this stupid joke that I do where I write nonsense in the notes. I’ll hopefull do it on the new show too. Won’t be the same though. Well here’s the lame stuff Nar wrote. This is the last episode of Pokemon GO Radio, and we have some big feels about it. If you like the podcast, fear not, we are transitioning...

We are back! Nar is home from the UK and ready to get back to podcasting. This week we recap the Festival of Colors, Lush Jungle fun times, and examine a Beary good Community Day. Finally, we break down Niantic’s latest push to get folks “back to normal” in Pokemon GO.    Please consider supporting Casey as he battles a brain tumor. Money helps and this is a great way to show him people care.    Thanks to Ben Sound for the intro, and check out Sean Siders for great music like the remixed outro
