The Nerdologues

We sat down with Sam Cuellar to learn what brought him to Chicago, his process as an improviser and why he thinks Improv Sux.

The games we've been playing! Overwatch, Borderlands 2, Persona Q2, and more!

The incredibly talented Tim Seeley makes a triumphant return to our show to talk about a couple of the comics he's been cooking up lately, including the must-read He-Man and the Masters of the Multiverse! We also get to be a few of the first to introduce him to the new She-Ra series with a discussion of the episode "Remember."

Eric + MB take it easy by calling the end of a Labor Day game between the Braves and Jays. There's no edits. They performed the interstitial audio with their mouths. Happy Labor Day, go baseball.

Dogs. Puppers. Bork Factories. Everyone* loves them, and their care is critical work often handled through shelters across the US and beyond. Little Rock Games is working on a game that goes into the challenges of such an operation right now, and Olivia Dunlap joins me this week to chat about To the Rescue! We also crown the greatest fictional dog of all time after rigorous scientific analysis.

Plus, Chris Arneson helps me tackle a classic Simpsons episode during Screenwatching!

*Cats are not part of everyone

Yeli bares all and asks a dissenter to relax, Eric bares all that's salvageable about the Pirates and where they can improve in 2020, and MB barely contains her excitement after an 8-game win streak by the [still] first place Bravos. Finally, every body can enjoy MB spitting Rimes in an ode to unreasonable sports fandom.

This week, we discuss the time-honored tradition of fan art with the incredible artist Fey, who, among other things, has made a pretty freaking beautiful She-Ra tarot deck! We also chat with Fey about "Moment of Truth," the Endgame of She-Ra episodes!

Rieman and Sater dig deep into the process of a gem from mine to jewelry inspired by the themes of Splendor!

We sat down with Compliment Queens to learn what brought them to Chicago, their process, what brought them together as a team, and why they think Improv Sux.

This week Shelby gave me my regular dose of Overwatch news plus we got in deep on a recent release! Games played: Borderlands 2 - Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary DLC, Overwatch, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
