Episode 399 - Gamer Babies

It's been a rough week. We're all chilling on Shiva's back patio, but we've got a lot of un fun topics to cover. There's good stuff too, so we balance it out. We've got Cosby going to jail, Elon Musk's refusal to log off continuing to kick his butt, Kavanaugh and the ghouls in DC, and Gamers being bad. On the good side, Seattle is vacating misdemeanor pot convictions, there's some fun new games out, Doctor Who and The Good Place are back soon, there's new cons in Oklahoma, and furry kickstarters passing their goals.

Savrin’s Newbie Convention Organizer’s Guide

I was inspired by putting together my prior video about my time in the Brony fandom to really delve deep into the steps required to get a convention off the ground. This goes deep into the hows and whys, and covers things you probably haven't thought of if you're the type of person who thinks they'd like to start a convention.

Episode 396 - Fear Of The Derp State

This week it's Fuzz and Savrin at his apartment, as Shiva is off in the mile-high land of Colorado still. We've got brief touches on the two Solo things Savrin put out, Twitter being bad so try Mastodon, a 5000 calorie munchie box, LeVar Burton hanging out with pals, Doctor Who coming back, India doing away with the gay sex ban, and amusing minor league sports teams.
