#2 - I am Your Father: Is Logan a Western?

Welcome to the second episode of I am Your Father. In this episode Garrett and his non-fiction-loving dad watch Logan together.

#98 - R2-T2: Shadowlands, Diablo IV, and Overwatch 2 First Impressions

I'm back! Well, past me is back. Present me is definitely sick as can be thanks to BlizzCon. Speaking of BlizzCon, this episode include Patrick Beja and myself giving our first impressions of World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, Diablo IV, and Overwatch 2. This was recorded live from the BlizzCon floor so please excuse the background noise.

Is R2-T2 back? Well I never considered it gone. I've just been very busy with TAC and ITN as well as the additional load of working on HotSlogs. I was planning to bring back R2-T2 on a regular basis once BlizzCon had wrapped. But now that I am so sick, I'm not sure I'll be able to deliver on that as planned. Enjoy Patrick and I for now and I will see you all as soon as I can.

#96 - R2-T2: Ghost Stories

Say it isn’t so! In the same story we found out that Blizzard was working on a StarCraft shooter, but also that is was canceled. If this sounds a little familiar… that’s because it’s not the first StarCraft shooter to get the axe. On today’s R2-T2 I cope with this news, give a brief history of StarCraft: Ghost, and take questions from listeners about our hopes for future StarCraft games.

#90 - R2-T2: Bananarac

2 episodes in one week? It’s almost like February is a short month and traveling and technical difficulties compacted that issue! Anyways, on this episode I’m joined by my good friend Abby. She and her husband Ben, are to blame for Katie and my cocktail obsession. I’ve been wanting to talk to Abby about one of her all time favorite drinks, the Bananarac. It’s a riff on the Sazerac that employs a banana liqueur and it’s delicious.
