Podcast – Video Grandpa

Does age bring wisdom? Would we rather have youth or experience? How do we really feel about mortgages? Did Ty tell the same story twice on this podcast and neither of us noticed?

The Skywalker Saga has finally ended. We look back on the good, the bad, and the boring parts of a galaxy far, far away.

With Disney+ entering the field, how are these streaming wars going to end?

How do you reconcile national values against an economy that cares less and less about borders? Also Ty weighs the seismic life change that comes with having a child, and more than one news story is about animal blood.

Is regulating Big Tech even possible in capitalist America?

What do we want from whoever ends up being the 2020 Democrat? Also, we eliminate half the current field of candidates based on mostly nothing.

Game of Thrones is over and Americans are stressed. They may or may not be related. Also piña coladas.

Game of Thrones spoilers! Plus 45 minutes of describing the conflicts that kept us from podcasting for 2 months.

Reports of the death of this podcast have been wildly exaggerated. But still pretty believable TBH.

Some stuff happened in 2018. We largely can’t remember it. Google helps.

Fran joins to talk about games journalism and his desire to be a Decepticon.

Jobscast 2! What’s the deal with health insurance? Should you lie about your experience? How should you dress for an interview? How do you write a professional email? All this and slightly more!

In this special we look at the technical details of the consumer side of the industry, from TVs and game consoles to the marketing-speak that confuses everyone. HDMI, HDCP, 4K, HDR, VR – if it’s been debated in a comments section, we’ll cover it.

It’s the Jobscast! Joined by @JennFizz, we give advice on how to get a cool job in tech/gaming. Should you go to college? How do you make your resume stand out? Does being local matter? All this and more!

Welcome to the Video Grandpa Podcast! Every week, Ty Root and I will be discussing what we care about in the worlds of tech, video production, gaming, and beer. We’ll be bringing on special guests and probably swearing a lot.
