This week we are joined by the lovely and talented Bill Young and spend a lot more time than any of us expected talking about fighting games. It’s weird. Also we start making our Kickstarter drinks and pimping out things for listeners as promised. Oddly enough, the first one on the list is our friend Porter, of Burn and Brew fame, and his drink gets us all pretty drunk. I’m not sure if that is how a rivalry is supposed to work, but we enjoyed it.
The Burning Brothers are coming! The Burning Brothers are coming!
Seriously, the guys from Burning Brothers Brewing are a blast to hang with and damn if their beer isn’t delicious! I should point out that the Burning Bros. were on fellow Fearless Comedy Productions partner podcast Burn and Brew last week. I’m sure it was great and all, but our interview actually got Gabe to talk so we win. Did I mention that we decided to start a rivalry with Burn and Brew this week? They don’t know that yet either. How could that possibly go awry? We’ll find out I’m sure.
This week we are joined for a lovely chat by Mr. Joshua Humphrey of the Twin Cities Theater Connection. Joshua’s website and podcast feature interviews with some of the most interesting figures and companies in the TC theater scene. Turns out, he’s also a hell of a lot of fun to talk to.
All the international Kickstarter backers are getting them automatically because Matt is an asshole and took forever to process those. We’ll let the rest of you know how to get them a little later.
So . . . holy shit Matt is drunk for this show. He and Jena just finished the Fearless/Rockstar Storytellers crossover before recording. The gang also talks about Matt’s recent trip to Disney World and Jena’s son hitting the dating scene. There’s prolly more, but I can’t remember it.
Hey folks, sorry we’re a little late this week. I just got back into town from my vacation and finally got everything sorted out and posted. Salsa and Jena recorded with Porter in my absence. I haven’t even listened to this yet. I hope they talk about dinosaurs.
Hey kids, we’re back with just us hosts this week. Did you know that the three of us sometimes accidentally hang out together when we’re NOT recording a podcast? I know, right? Mind. BLOWN. Anyway, we all attended Febtoberfest this year. Salsa even made beer for it!
This episode we discuss what games we’ve been playing and what books we’ve been reading since we haven’t done that in ages. We also do a Fast Five that we got sent in the mail. Sweet.
Tonight we are joined by Jenna Papke of Six Elements Theater! I’ll have you know that Jenna is a hoot to talk to and knows her way around a production as well. We spend some time picking her brain about theater and the like but honestly, we’re just gonna have to have her on again because this could have been a 5 hour show. Check it out!
EDIT: Jena (our Jena) is doing the JDRF Walk for Diabetes. If you want to throw her a few bucks, you can do so here.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are joined this week by Doug Kallberg who writes the webcomic Pandora’s Box and is the illustrator for the Kingdom of Loathing comic book as well. Doug was a blast to talk to and boy do we talk about comic books. Damn we loves us some comics books. Don’t forget the show Jena helped work on, Zastrozzi, goes up this weekend and hey, here’s the Calvin and Hobbes inspired ice sculpture Salsa was talking about:
Holy crap was this a fun one. There are few, if any, guests that are as much fun as Megan and Jeff from the Ridiculous Puppet Company. Hell, they bring lab coats.
We run the gamut this week as Matt tries to find ways to relieve stress, Salsa and Jena learn how much fun cheering for a high school dance squad can be, and Jeff and Megan tell us about making the Institute for Ridiculous Science into the company the Ridiculous Puppet Company.
Did I mention that Salsa gets a tarot reading from Miss Fortune? Oh, you don’t know her? Of course you do, it’s this lovely lady right here:
Damn I love these guys. I know we promised a bunch more links in the notes, so here’s a link to kick-ass lawyer Alex Bajwa and Blasphemina’s Closet.
