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

Show notes

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.

Part 2: Dave does a solo email session, and realizes he ruined an otherwise lovely Anniversary present for a CCG.

Part 3: Star Wars Spoiler Cast.

(We forgot to do a GFB at the end of the show, and the guys have never been more ashamed).

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

Show notes

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.

17:15 – Dave chats up Friend of the Show Keir Miron (@KeirMiron) about Darkest Dungeon, and Dave speculates how a game of American 21 between Dave and Keir would go (PS, Dave wins 21-0).

27:50 – Dave converses with Adriel Wallick (@MsMinotaur) about her several projects (Train Jam, Game A Week), as well as what it’s like to be an ex-pat in the Netherlands. Also cookies.

Episode 65 – I’m Dreaming Of A GFB Christmas Dec 07, 2015

Show notes

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

Show notes

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.

Episode 63 – Get Monked! Nov 23, 2015

Show notes

After last week’s disaster of a show the guys are back with a Certified Banger. Sorry about that, we’ll never have Jebailey on again.

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.

The show gets rounded out by talking about Dave’s trip to Oculus, and friend of the show Liz sends in a quality email.

Episode 62 – Darryl Interviews Alex Jebailey Nov 16, 2015

Show notes

With Dave out of town, Darryl is left with few options and is forced to interview Alex Jebailey, Community Manager for Iron Galaxy and the man behind the fighting game tournament series Community Effort Orlando.

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.
