Episode 3 - How to End a Podcast Feb 01, 2017

Show notes

Recorded on 1/31/17

Zack, Ryan, and Danny realize how inexperienced they are when it comes to making a consistent conversation-themed podcast.

Listen to them cover wildly different topics from guilty pleasure video games to cape-based physics, Train Simulator to the Lord of the Rings mmo; all for the sake of putting out another weekly episode.

So many more questions are raised by this episode.
Such as: When will these episodes ever have good sound quality? When will this podcast have a consistent theme? Why are these guys still doing this? How are these guys still alive?

Tune in next week for answers(?). We promise we'll have an actual entertaining subject for the next episode.
