So this one is a bit old, and doesn't mention the current police brutality because I recorded it a relatively long time ago and didn't have the heart to release anything at all for a while! But it's a very good episode as Bryan Quimby of Street Fight Radio and I talk politics, games, pandemic, and more. A way to get back into content for us both perhaps, listener, and I hope you are doing okay. Production by the Great Julian!

Hi all! Jon and I are still at it but you may have noticed that 1) there has been very little video game news and 2) there has been a LOT of real life news. So we've had little and less to record on. That said, this is an episode we recorded a week or two ago, and should still be relevant to today. News and views that aren't exactly relevant to the current situation in America? Well, can't say I'm not consistent. Production by Julian! Production by Julian! Production by Julian!!

Liv and I are back in one of No Cartridge's most ambitious series, as we cover Campo Santo's classic Firewatch and put it in conversation with the absolutely gorgeous and moving A Constant Hum, the debut novel/collection by Australian author Alice Bishop! Learn about the history of Australian bush fire, find out if the book is more somber than the game or vice versa, and enter a wonderful discussion that -- I think -- elevates both pieces.

Liv and I are here to talk about that ol elephant in the room -- the quarantine! This is an older episode, but I wanted to put it on the free feed, and there'll be a new one tomorrow on patreon; I think this is a nice therapeutic approach to the pandemic, though, as we talk cooking in gaming and how it serves as a way to help ourselves and our friends cope!
