**51:10** – Do you think the current quarantine situation is going to result in a huge influx of indie game masterpieces next year because everyone has been stuck at home and thirsty for any kind of work to take their minds of things?
**52:30** – The time I’ve had in quarantine has given me a-lot of perspective on my career decisions. I wen’t from web developer to web-app developer… (It’s been along process to switch an associates 2 times) However I’ve been playing Jackbox with friends a-lot lately, and it’s given me the perception that common-day board games like Monopoly could be easily adapted to something like… do you see web based controller games continuing to take a foothold in the party game industry?
**55:50** – Although I’m a web programmer, for those who aspire to break into the gaming industry or some other sort of programming. If you were hiring would you choose the person with a fleshed out github portfolio? or the person with a degree?

**1:01:25** – What’s the most Florida Man thing you’ve ever witnessed while living here? Also what the most Florida Man thing you’ve ever done yourself?
**1:04:55** – What game do you wish you could play for the first time again?
**1:07:05** – I just got access to EA Origin’s Game Vault library and I’m having trouble deciding which Need for Speed game to jump into. In chronological order I’ve installed Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Need for Speed: Rivals, Need for Speed: 2015, Need for Speed: Payback. Historically I’ve played games chronologically for narrative-based games but I don’t think this applies to the Need for Speed franchise. I’m tempted to just play the newest one, but I’ve noticed that the older games are better reviewed than the newer ones. What would you do in my situation?

**S3E013 – Great Friendly Beings** Mar 23, 2020

We’re back this week with two Game Dev Origin stories. While these fine people aren’t everyday names in Game Dev lore, they are two people that inspire me and keep my energy up for doing this crazy job day after day. On today’s cast:

Alicia Cano: Engineer, and life-long Floridian. She has been at Iron Galaxy long enough to remember Kiran falling down the stairs during the Holiday Party, so she’s seen some shit, listen up.

Tom Angus: I’ve worked with Tom on three (!) different occasions now. Once at Kodiak, once at Microsoft, and now (hopefully finally) at Iron Galaxy. You’ll never find a more positive person in all your days, so stop searching.

Next week Dave and Darryl will be back. Neither can leave the house, so I don’t know what they are going to speak on, but tune in regardless!

We’re Back for 2020 Dec 30, 2019

Welcome everyone!

We’ve got some (hopefully) exciting news for you all. Darryl and Dave are back for 2020. After a lot of contemplation, they boys have figured out where their “podcast fatigue” came from. Summating a lot here, but the podcast became too much of a time and money sync to continue for what we were getting out it.

But, over the last year, we’ve had so many of you reach out and talk to us about what the show meant to you, how it helped you when you were down, or just that you needed to know if Darryl throws it in the hoop…so we’re willing to give it another go for 2020.

Like most things in life there’s a catch. We’ve started a Patreon. We’re not trying to live off this patreon. All we want is to cover hosting costs and hire an editor so Dave doesn’t have to do it every week. Any money above and beyond that will be dumped back into community events (PAX meet-ups, etc.).

We’ll start 2020 with a normal show, and (bespoke) show notes as you’re accustomed to, but for now please enjoy the first, and last, episode of 2019.

Dave jumps into an (unintentionally long) story about parenting woes, and the day-in day-out rigors of raising kids who have no problem lying to your face.

Then, finally, like a beam of light setting an otherwise bleak landscape ablaze, the guys recap PAX. Booth setup promlems? #GOTEM. PAXAMANIA stories? #GOTEM? Let’s Rank It and meet-up recap? Yeah, son, you know we got those for days.

Team GFB Radio – Episode 86 – The PAX East After Party

2:45 – Darryl story time! He goes full Bob Villa, and NO ONE should go full Bob Villa.

16:50 – Dave story time! He goes full crummy Dad! Dave goes over home schooling, and punishing children who lie to your face.

33:10 – Okay, enough of that personal garbage! Onto PAX stories. Dave gets it rolling with some booth set-up woes, predictably, roll into Unfortunately Timed Drinking.

45:15 – PAX proper begins, and Dave details some cool stuff they did at the booth, PAXAMANIA shenanigans, and random accounts of how Saturday nights up and done got off the rails.

58:10 – The guys talk about the Let’s Rank It! panel, which we both feel was a rousing success (even with all the Rookie of the Year and Windjammers talk. Still a good time), and get into the GFB meet-up (which totally ruled!) Thanks to all the CCGs that came out for the panel and the meet-up.

Episode 84 – PAX BOUND! Apr 18, 2016

It’s a Lang-only, email- heavy show this week so if that’s not your cup of tea…too late, Trick, you already downloaded it! Thanks and sorry not sorry.

If you’re hitting up PAX East in a few days definitely listen to the beginning of this show as Lang goes over all GFB-related dealings at PAX East.

Aside from that lots of emails get answered. Some are good, some aren’t, and one is genuinely regrettable. Which ones are which? Who can say.

Actually, and this is a technicality, really, you could say. You just need to listen to this episode.

Episode 83 – The Best Day Of The Internet Apr 11, 2016

Hey, you! Yes, you! The one person who gives a fuck about these bespoke, hand-crafted show notes! I would have much preferred to go to bed, but instead stayed up to get this done for you. Hope you enjoy it.

Hey! Where are you going? You barely glanced over here…no way you read all these Show Notes.

Wow. So that’s how it is? You treating me like I’m a fucking ghost now? Like I’m not even here?

*Three Hours Pass*

Okay, listen, I get it. I made that weird. I got way too tight about the show notes.

It’s just that after the last couple weeks I thought you cared.

*Two more hours pass*

It’s just that…

I don’t….

*Yet two more hours pass*

I don’t know what to think anymore

*An hour goes by*

*You get a text message from a number you don’t recognize*

What are you wearing?

Episode 80 – CCGesus Mar 21, 2016

It’s a solo show for Lang, as he failed to do any interviews whilst at GDC. He answered a bunch of emails, read some iTunes reviews, and in general did his best not to make a mockery of the Platform of Excellence that has been established for the show. This is validated with some iTunes reviews, including one that dubbed Darryl Wisner as CCGesus, a.k.a. the greatest nickname of all time (which up until now belonged to Dominique Wilkins, a.k.a. the Human Highlight Reel and Dave’s college acquaintance Big Breakfast).

Episode 79 – How Are Your Rock Features? Mar 14, 2016

Dave is in Orlando and this podcast was recorded at Casa de Wisner. It’s an email heavy show, but Darryl does talk about some shenanigans he saw off of Orange Ave. while walking to work one day, and we’re all worse for hearing that story.

Then the guys start to work through the email backlog. I won’t bore you with all the details, but the guys touch on lots of different topics: Genital dreads, software unit tests, RUN GFB, Dave being way too drunk at the Giant Bomb PAX Prime party, etc. you get the gist of it.

Team GFB Radio – Episode 79 – How Are Your Rock Features?

Original Air Date: March 11th, 2016

4:00 – Dave gets Darryl caught up on last week’s show that he wasn’t on.

27:25 – Michael McBreen wants to know if we use Unit Tests. Nope, they don’t make sense for Game Development so that ill-considered response pretty much makes it a fact.

34:15 – David from Montreal wants to know if we’ve ever encountered any weird driver/compiler bugs. Oddly enough, yes, and they made us men.

45:10 – Someone wanted to remain anonymous, so I reverse traced his IP and found out it was actually PRESIDENT OBAMA I SHIT YOU NOT.

47:15 – Aaron writes in with some corrections from when we talked about the upcoming Star Wars attractions at Disney.

50:15 – Ben writes in to make fun of Dave, and in true indie-dev form, comes up short. Feel free to try again Ben.

55:05 – Andy from Pittsburg writes in to reminisce about the Giant Bomb/Gamespot party at PAX Prime last August.

1:00:00 – Wes from Normal Illinois writes in to discuss genital hygiene.

Episode 78 – CCGs In The House Mar 07, 2016

It’s a Lang-only show, but instead of panicking Dave called in some favors and got some CCGs lined up for what is, without a doubt, the Greatest Episode of All Time (also the longest episode of all time for those scoring at home).

Dave starts off with a DICE summary with Playstation’s Adam Boyes. The guys talk about DICE itself, after hours stuff, and the now infamous Friday night at Omnia. No phone numbers were tweeted out during this segment.

Then, Dave welcomes travel bestie Kelly Wallick to the show to discuss travel, specifically to Japan. They debate the merits of Tokyo and Kyoto, and try to get everyone excited enough about Japan to book a trip there immediately.

After that Dave chats with Justin Woodward about lots of stuff, but mostly his company’s new game that’s up on fig.co right now. This game is CCG approved.

Dave rounds out this monster of an episode with a grip of emails before passing out in a heap on the floor.

Hello Everyone! After a week of radio silence the guys are back and better than ever.

First, they start with a heartfelt apology about last week. They tried their best, they failed, and you picked them up. Sorry/Thank You.

The guys then plug the first ever Team GFB Play Date (info here), Dave talks about The Witness (again), before launching into an extended travelogue from his trip to SF.

Darryl had an unexpected trip to Chicago while Dave was out, and his visit coincided with a company Bender, and he did it real big.

They guys wrap the show with four STRONG emails, and manage to plug their PAX East panel in their answers (they are pros).

The dudes talk about Valentine’s Day, Chicago Pizza shaped like hearts, PAX East plans, and DICE before getting into Dave’s weekend in Santa Rosa, CA with friends of the show Adam Boyes and John Vignocchi. Some stuff went down.

49:55 – Alex a.k.a. subreddit master wants us to stack rank our favorite (and least favorite) games we’ve ever worked on.

57:25 – Neale from Halifax wants to know the deal with TJ Combo’s stage in Killer Instinct Season 2 (which is now irrefutably KI canon).

Episode 74 – Unload The Toad Feb 08, 2016

This episode should be titled: Hey go review the show on iTunes, because that’s all we care about this week.

Darryl starts off the show by trying to explain what shipping a game is like for the listeners, Lang attempts to help with a fairly tenuous Shipping analogy.

Then, Dave talks about going to Austin, which of course means this week’s show has a heaping helping of Kraig impersonations in it. You’re welcome in advance. Kraig took Dave the the sexual nexus of Austin, and Dave still doesn’t know what “sexual nexus” means.

Dave talks a lot of PAX, and Summer Slam; he interviewed some people involved with the show, if you’re into behind the scenes PAX Wrestling info.

Darryl then goes over the glory that was the Killer Instinct World Cup, which basically went about as well as anyone could reasonably hope for.

Episode 73 – Ride The Snail Feb 01, 2016

In what can only be described as “fashionably late,” Episode 73 shows up to perplex and surprise you.

Lang speed talks for 60 minutes in this one, mostly because Darryl elected to not contribute. Topics covered include but are not limited to: Honey, Bees, The Witcher 3, honeycomb, Who’s Your Daddy, Mario Maker, Killer Queen, Turbo Bears, and much much more.

Later the guys talk about Adam Boyes’ reaction to the Witcher 3, PAX, KI Cup, and answer some emails. Huzzah, it’s the episode you never knew you wanted.

13:45 – Darryl wakes up long enough to ask a Killer Queen question. Dave provides a long-form answer, BECAUSE HE’S SO INTERESTING TO LISTEN TO.

Episode 72 – Let’s Rank It! Jan 25, 2016

This is a heartfelt edition of Team GFB Radio. We laughed. We cried. We planned a wedding for a stranger.

Dave starts by going over the latest Iron Galaxy Mandatory Fun Company Bender, wherein he watched Pacific Rim in the office with Ramon asleep next to him at five in the morning. The guys both started and, get this, finished (!) OXENFREE and have some spoiler-free thoughts on it. Dave has some musings on the show to this point, and Darryl doesn’t seem to appreciate them. Darryl gets Dave up to speed on the world of Lego Dimensions, and there’s some more Ori and Max and the Cursed Brotherhood talk before the guys roll into emails.

There were a lot of emails this week, and they were all good, but one stood out. It’s the one wherein the guys know how they will rebrand Team GFB Radio. Finally.

Team GFB Radio – Episode 72 – Let’s Rank It!

Original Air Date: January 22nd, 2016

1:50 – It’s the first ever “Team GFB Radio Darryl Carries The Show Minute”

2:30 – Dave details IG Chicago’s latest Mandatory Fun Company Bender.

Episode 71 – Drunk In A Cornfield Jan 18, 2016

This episode is, as they say, a grower not a show-er. The guys (for some reason) start off talking about their Coravins, then Dave transitions into talking about his new iPhone. This is probably a good time to remind you that without some boring parts in the shows you wouldn’t appreciate the great bits when they occur.

Darryl got a 3D printer and, probably because he’s a good father, decided to make toys for his girls instead of weapons like Dave would have. Then Dave went to LA where he saw his High School friend and comedian Brian Babylon and Multiplayer on Dash curator Alex Rubens, before going to a day trip to Orlando where he packed in too much drinking into too short a time.

Dave played Ori with his 9 year old son, and found it difficult to explain what a Metroid-Vania style game is to him, and why he should care. Darryl played some adventure games and the guys finally played Who’s Your Daddy. Turns out they are both awful dads, but you probably already knew that.

In emails, Dave tells the story of his Oktoberfest in Breese, IL back in 1994 (spoiler: it ends poorly), and the guys answer a question about what some one in Marketing does over the course of a game’s development cycle.

Team GFB Radio – Episode 71 – Drunk In A Cornfield

Episode 70 – Dave Got Iced… Again Jan 11, 2016

Turns out when you do an episode without a coherent theme, typing up show notes is kind of a chore. Imagine trying to tie together such disparate concepts/activities as the Plants v. Zombies board game, Witcher 3, fancy wine gadgets, and getting iced.

LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

If we had achieved this feat we would have received a Pulitzer Prize, I shit you not. Our genius would have been recognized on the global stage. But, instead, we have what you’re reading now.

Oh! They also spent forever on emails. Why did I even get out of bed today?

The guys make some half-hearted resolutions.

They inject an ill-timed Her Story spoiler cast into the middle of this episode.

And to top it off, somehow Darryl is experiencing his first Steam sale.

*sigh*

Episode 68 – The Son Of Big Breakfast Dec 28, 2015

The guys got on their Sunday night recording grind for you, dear listeners, for you. They hope you enjoy the result.

They guys spend a lot of time discussing past Holiday parties, so if you’re not into that maybe consider just skipping to the twenty-six minute mark? If, however, Holiday Parties align with your personal brand then this is a show for you. Starting around the four-minute mark Dave talks about the historic shortcomings of Iron Galaxy Orlando Holiday parties….until this year when they’ve snatched the “Best Holiday Party of all Time” crown from Iron Galaxy Chicago’s 2010 banger. Before you can protest this claim: It’s not even close.

Darryl dove head-long into the Steam ecosystem over Holiday break, and fell in love with Gone Home. Dave then discussed getting sick after Christmas, and he’s son’s dark voyage into the breakfast sandwich subculture.

Episode 66 – Team GFB Presents: Dave Lang and the CCG All-Star Spectacular Dec 14, 2015

The entirety of this show was recorded live from the Playstation Experience, where Dave interviewed a metric ton of CCGs. He started off talking with Playstation’s Matt Kessler, but was quickly ambushed by CBSi’s Jeff Gerstmann mid-interview. Please savor this chat, as we suspect it will be the last time Matt will be allowed to speak on Playstation’s behalf.

After getting Matt to roll over on several business partners, Dave and Jeff chat up Matt’s boss, Gio Corsi of Playstation. Gio is a show veteran, and comports himself with an unusual dignity and flair. From Gio we roll right into Friend of the Show Keir, where he and Dave basically agree on what it would be like if they were to play a game of American 21. Post-Keir, Dave talks to Adriel Wallick about the joys of living in Amsterdam, and making games on trains.

Things get serious when Dave finds Dose One for a discussion on fist fights in Philly, music and sound production, and other heady issues of the day. Immediately after that, Dave bumped into Dan Teasdale and Panzer of No Goblin, who were still riding the high from their new game, 100 Robot Feet, being announced during the PSX Keynote.

Dave wraps up the podcast by chatting with Kahlief Adams from Spawn on Me, where they come up with a great idea for a new show they will never do, and Isaac Torres whom you all will quickly forget as he didn’t bring his A-game.

Feeling good about this one. We revisit the glory that isn’t sex in the Prius. Darryl talks about his first Turkey Day in Orlando. Dave fell into the show hole that is Hannibal. In short, the show gets off to a good start.

And somehow…it keeps rolling. Dave talks about trying to buy Assassins Creed Syndicate and Fallout 4…before succumbing to crappy download times and playing Unity. Then Dave is getting ready to go to PSX, and gets Darryl caught up with what he should expect.

Then things get awkward. Dave, for only reasons he understands, decided to role play as one of Darryl’s children. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Then he did that two more times. After that if you’re into rap music, Dave thinks you might enjoy the new Lice EP. Finally, the guys hit up a few emails before sailing away into the good night.

Episode 64 – Free Play, All Day Nov 30, 2015

The guys pooped out this turd of a show right before Thanksgiving, so forgive them, their minds were elsewhere.

Dave starts by getting Darryl caught up on the snowfall he missed by deserting to Orlando. Classic Darryl, he actually misses snow!

Darryl takes command of the show with an epic retelling of his visit to Free Play Florida, where he checked out bunch of coin-op, pinball, and legacy home systems for a low, low entry fee (but not free, as the name of the show may suggest). He also tried to get Sexy talking about Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker…and that was a mistake.

The guys then talk about the massive stack of games they have on their plates, so if you like hearing people talk a lot about games they haven’t played yet this section is dedicated to you.

Finally, Dave talks about the last Divekick update before the guys answer a couple emails.

The guys start with Darryl getting sexy and Dave getting hype. Then Dave goes into an extended retelling of his Extra Life stream for Giant Bomb, and boy, if you’re super into Until Dawn you’re in luck. Turns out that game is amazing, and they guys talk at length about it (they veer briefly into spoilerville, but you can avoid that easily enough with the timestamps below). Until Dawn is currently in the driver’s seat for GOTY.

Want to know how Alex got started at IG? Want to hear all about how he won the Blockbuster Videogame Championship? No? Perhaps you’re curious how Alex got so good at fighting games? Not that either? Do you want to hear about how he met Adam “Keits” Heart, and got added as a character in Divekick? Boy…tough crowd. Well, at one point he awkwardly forces the conversation onto how he gets stalked a lot by ex-girlfriends (one is forced to assume this was a misguided attempt to relate how good he is with women) and it made me cringe, you’ll want to hear that for sure.

To celebrate the first year of the show we pulled out all the stops. We revisited every bit (we could remember) and did them once more for old time’s sake, share some more survey results, Darryl gets geeked up for Until Dawn, and Dave runs down PAX.

If that wasn’t enough, we asked some friends of the show what Team GFB Radio has meant to them. Their answers will shock you!

Original Air Date: August 28th, 2015

Close Your Eyes (And Count the Load Time):

Load the game fast. Load the, load the game fast.

Load the, load the, lo-load the, lo-load the, lo-load the

F*** THE SLOW LOAD! Time slave, I’m protesting cuz of all the time to load it took Used to be, had no time to read the instruction book What’s changed? How do devs think they are off the hook? Back to digital, not disc, should save the load time it took Was it cuz of solid state? That I didn’t have to wait? Now it’s not physical media, are we talking “LoadGate?” What I’m asking is now that we are no longer always on a disc… Is why are there still long load times instead of like a cartridge? It would instantly load… Was it better code? Now, I have time to get up and go to the commode I’m talking XBLA Called Xbox Store today And also the PlayStation Store to download and get to play Please don’t disregard my question about today’s load times Because you were blown away by all of my amazing rhymes @adamazing “Close Your Eyes (And Count the Load Time)” Load the Game II 2015 Iron Galaxy Records

Episode 50 – Over the Hill Aug 24, 2015

The guys are back for a Traditional GFB Family Values episode.

For a fun twist, they guys start off with some housekeeping. Turns out you guys like travel stories. Then Darryl begins his siege on Team GFB Radio by talking about lunch, which was super boring if you live anywhere besides Orlando. Then, we get a slice of life direct from Orlando, FL as Darryl talks about pool maintenance.

If you made it through all that, you’re in luck. The dudes talk about Star Wars Land right on the heels of D23, and Dave reveals his deep jealousy over not attending. Then, Dave gets Darryl up to speed with the newest funding/publishing platform on the block, Fig.co, which Dave thinks is neat.

Dave next decides “that’s enough fun for one show,” and for reasons that remain unclear he starts talking about Destiny’s The Taken King, something Darryl doesn’t care about. He then hypes up Bit Bash, before finally revealing what to expect at PAX Prime. Then, as always, your emails bring the show home.

Buckle up this is a good one.

Darryl gets the party started by bringing some adult root beer to a neighborhood party. Imagine the shenanigans he got into after a few bottles of hard root beer! The possibilities are truly endless.

Then the guys go over the roller-coaster-ride that was Darryl’s solo cast, before making an impassioned plea to the listeners to fill out our survey (click over there in the left bar!). To sweeten the pot a little bit, the guys share some initial survey results, and boy, they sure are funny.

Dave then gets into his trips to Cologne and Amsterdam, and manages to insult America in the process (Sorry, America!).

The show gets wrapped up with the guys insulting Nick Chester, and Alex Rubens turns on Felix Kramer in an unexpected way.

Lang and Felix try to recapture the magic from their appearance on Giant Bomb’s Big Live Live Show Live, and largely fail to meet that goal.

Episode 45 – Ice To Meet You Jul 20, 2015

With Benedict Arnold in transit to Orlando Florida, Dave was left to fend for himself this week; and lo! it was good.

Assisting Dave this week is Alex Rubens (@alexrubens, give him a follow, he’s a CCG) who has more cool jobs at the age of 21 than you have had your entire, miserable life. He’s cool like that.

Alex starts the show aggressively by bringing back a meme from 2007 before Dave regales you with tales from #Bitsummit, Kyoto, Hiroshima, and Gion Matsuri.

In an unexpected turn of events, Alex turns Dave against United Airlines. 1k status is up for grabs: WHO WANTS IT MOST?

The CCG’s close out the show by answering some emails, wherein Paul tells Dave he should have been in the movie The Warriors, and Dave turns into a blubbery mess at the implications therein.

GFB Prime Time Presents: The Raid: Redemption Nov 26, 2014

As a special Thanksgiving treat we thought we’d record a commentary track for one of our favorite movies, The Raid: Redemption. If you’ve never seen this movie before, it’s an Indonesian action movie with an emphasis on brutal hand-to-hand combat and inner-thigh punching. It’s the 2nd greatest movie of all time.

We recorded this to the Amazon.com digital version, which you can get here if you need it. The Raid: Redemption Unrated

Happy Thanksgiving from #TeamGFBRadio
