Episode notes: "The Hallway" was written, edited, and produced by Derek Graziano Bio: Derek Graziano is the host and producer of Rolling Misadventures, a tabletop actual play podcast meets short form audio drama, and cohost of LifeWorld, a true crime discussion podcast focusing on cybercrime. Show Links: www.rollingmisadventures.com https://www.spreaker.com/show/lifeworld Twitter: @RMisadventures Transcription: You awaken in bed, to the sound of soft running water down the hall. As you slowly fumble from your room, you enter a pitch black hallway, save for a sliver of light at the end. You make your way cautiously forward, the floorboards creaking with each step. Hand trembling on the doorknob, you throw the door open to a blinding light. As your eyes adjust, you see your roommate standing before you with a look of confusion. "I'm just washing my hands. Go back to bed you goof." This episode of “Listen. Rinse. Repeat.” was brought to you by Derek Graziano of Rolling Misadventures. Sounds were used under creative commons.

Although he has appeared on the show before, Derek had yet to be my esteemed "Guest of the Month" so I needed to fix that. Because we're both nerds, we talk about video games. And, because we're both podcasters, we talk podcasting and how Derek has checked off a lot of podcast category boxes. He's done a gaming news show, an actual play tabletop game which shifted into an improvised audio drama, and now he's dipping his toes into True Crime with his new project "Lifeworld." https://www.rollingmisadventures.com/http://lifeworld.podbean.com/Join the Facebook Group Oddballs: Friends of The Odd Dad Outhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/odddadoutDonate on Patreonhttp://patreon.com/join/odddadoutFollow Along on Social athttps://www.twitter.com/odddadout/https://www.facebook.com/odddadout/https://www.instagram.com/odddadout/

This is Derek Graziano, Host and Producer of Rolling Misadventures. We are a tabletop show that brings podcasters on to take a break and play a game with us. Afterwards, I take those game sessions and blend our improvised acting with an audio drama spin into two episode story arcs. While we do keep to shorter stories, this does allow us to hop across genres. We are a rated R show, so please keep that in mind, as you check out any of the settings that interest you. A fine example of what we do can be heard in The Clam Magnate Mysteries. After finding a body on a cruise ship, our cast is left pointing fingers at each other as they rush to find the killer, before they too become a victim. https://www.rollingmisadventures.com
Pretty much everyone dreams of flying. And of not getting on the wrong side of gangsters and Nazis. But mostly of flying. So imagine how cool it would be if a jetpack just fell into your lap! Or rather the seat of your airplane. Oh who care, YOU’VE GOT A JET PACK!Listen in as Derek Graziano from Rolling Misadventures comes by the show to take a look at The Rocketeer and a pair of games that really couldn’t have been much more different if they’d tried.Learn such things as: Who was this movie made for? How did we end up with two games that are so different? (Not really answered but I’m still wondering) Seriously, this is a Disney movie? How did Nintendo censor more than Disney? And so much more!

Thursday Day 29 and I've just about done it. I wanhted to do a big clip show at the end of this, but that's just too much work. Instead I'm just looking back at how much I've grown in the last month of daily shows. Although it's a tough thing to accomplish, I think this could be a great training exercise for any newbie podcaster to fast track growing their skills.Very special thank you to all of you who have supported me through this whole month, especially: Paul Csomo, Derek Graziano, Chris Osborne, and Heather Welch.

This time the guys do a GCFU with Derek Graziano, host of Sometimes Geek podcast, a show that covers all of the major news from the gaming industry in a short and easy to listen format. Derek also co-hosts the newish podcast, Rolling Misadventures, a podcaster collaboration creating short form audio drama with a real play style show playing Fiasco.

Gamers. A violent, unpredictable, antisocial bunch... or not so much. Derek (from Sometimes Geek and Rolling Misadventures) joined me to talk about the different ways to play, theories about violence and addiction, and several other major world problems.A chunk of the conversation was carved out, both due to time and content (nothing too scandalous, it just involved a 14-year-old and his classmates), so that's on my Patreon feed, at all tiers.Disclaimer: Warbaby from Murderous Minors: Killer Kids Promos: No Remorse and Folklore on the Rocks Sponsor: Bath By Bex (code CBDkate for 15% off)
I'm back from our regular summer vacation, and I think I need another one. We always a good time, but, let's just put it this way, would you want to spend 20 hours in a van with 4 screaming boys? But now it's time to get back to work, back to business, and back to talking about myself because that's what I do here. Well, not just about myself. It's also time for another Sunshine Summit! -Summer VacationThis year was the smoothest, most efficient summer vacation we've had since moving to Arizona. My wife started planning the hotels back in January and this year we've finally found the best hotel that suits our needs. As a family of 4, we just have to have a suite with a full living room and kitchen in order to keep our sanity.The drive back to Texas was seriously the smoothest it's ever been. When we drive to Texas, we actually do it all in a single trip without any overnight stays. My wife and I just keep switching drivers while the other rests. This year we went for a little different plan. I drove in the big cities and overnight, and she drove the open roads during the day. This actually left us with a pretty even spread of time. I actually stopped to take a nap at some rest stops a couple times, but I never got so tired that I felt like we were in danger, which has happened in the past. Other than that we stopped for major meals and kept on trucking.We did all the same things we always do. We visited our families. My stepmom insisted we all go to Peter Piper Pizza. We went to the Texas State Aquarium. We drove around to see what things have changed. It's the same things we do every year, but this year seemed must less stressful. Maybe it's because we are in such a good place financially this time. For the first time ever, we actually didn't come home broke. In fact, we actually came back with extra money left over.It's taken nearly 10 years, but we've finally gotten our family vacation dialed in. In a couple more years we wont even need to pack a diaper bag. here's looking forward to next year's vacation going just as smooth. -Recommended Listening- Sunshine Summit 2.0https://www.sunshineandpowercuts.com/sunshinesummit2018/ The Sunshine Summit, created by Heather from the Sunshine and Powercuts Podcast, is a week long event made up of live streams celebrating connections and friendship from August 11th to the 17th (12th to the 18th for you people living in the future.) This time around it is also marking the 1 year anniversary of the podcast. I am fortunate, more accurately, lucky enough to be joining Heather on the actual anniversary of the podcast. Besides myself, returning guests include: Alysa Lucas, Bandrew Scott, and Stargate Pioneer. Joining in this time are also Derek Graziano, Rhett Hall, Anthony & Stephanie Conte, Lonein Lara, Suzy Buttress, Logan Naugle, Lisa & Sam, and Luke "Newsreel." -Jackass Of The Week-Whoever Designed the Freeways In Texas CitiesInstead of pulling up a story from the news to make rip into, I'm just gonna go with a serious gripe I have with my vacation back to Texas every year. The design of the freeway systems in the major cities in Texas is utterly retarded. Never mind that they are perpetually under construction with no real progress or signs of any actual improvements over the last 8 years. Scratch that. Make it 20 years. The freeway systems and roads themselves make no logical sense. Frequently, ramps exiting the freeway lead directly into ramps entering the freeway with less than a quarter mile of space for the cross traffic to avoid crashing into each other. Oh and the on-ramps themselves have such short merge lanes that many times cars have to stop on the ramps or in the travel lanes of the freeway to allow cars to enter and merge into traffic or avoid collisions.Add to that the fact that all of the freeways have active businesses and shopping areas running along them and use the frontage roads as major streets. And of course these businesses are all the ones that you are trying to get to: grocery stores, gas stations, shopping malls, hotels. So when you are trying to get in and out of these businesses you are having to fight with all of the traffic trying to get on and off the freeway. On top of all of that, the cities are designed in a way that practically forces you into using those freeways to get anywhere because of how the cities are laid out. Of course the roads themselves aren't actually capable of handling the heavy load of traffic and so you may spend hours on the road and maybe only move 2 miles. I all but refuse to drive at certain times of the day while I'm visiting my dad. It's not worth the stress. Oh, and did I mention just about every road is in need of repair and cleanup?

I actually stopped to take a nap at some rest stops a couple times, but I never got so tired that I felt like we were in danger, which has happened in the past. Other than that we stopped for major meals and kept on trucking.We did all the same things we always do. We visited our families. My stepmom insisted we all go to Peter Piper Pizza. We went to the Texas State Aquarium. We drove around to see what things have changed. It's the same things we do every year, but this year seemed must less stressful. Maybe it's because we are in such a good place financially this time. For the first time ever, we actually didn't come home broke. In fact, we actually came back with extra money left over.It's taken nearly 10 years, but we've finally gotten our family vacation dialed in. In a couple more years we wont even need to pack a diaper bag. here's looking forward to next year's vacation going just as smooth. -Recommended Listening- Sunshine Summit 2.0https://www.sunshineandpowercuts.com/sunshinesummit2018/ The Sunshine Summit, created by Heather from the Sunshine and Powercuts Podcast, is a week long event made up of live streams celebrating connections and friendship from August 11th to the 17th (12th to the 18th for you people living in the future.)

The design of the freeway systems in the major cities in Texas is utterly retarded. Never mind that they are perpetually under construction with no real progress or signs of any actual improvements over the last 8 years. Scratch that. Make it 20 years. The freeway systems and roads themselves make no logical sense. Frequently, ramps exiting the freeway lead directly into ramps entering the freeway with less than a quarter mile of space for the cross traffic to avoid crashing into each other. Oh and the on-ramps themselves have such short merge lanes that many times cars have to stop on the ramps or in the travel lanes of the freeway to allow cars to enter and merge into traffic or avoid collisions.Add to that the fact that all of the freeways have active businesses and shopping areas running along them and use the frontage roads as major streets. And of course these businesses are all the ones that you are trying to get to: grocery stores, gas stations, shopping malls, hotels. So when you are trying to get in and out of these businesses you are having to fight with all of the traffic trying to get on and off the freeway. On top of all of that, the cities are designed in a way that practically forces you into using those freeways to get anywhere because of how the cities are laid out. Of course the roads themselves aren't actually capable of handling the heavy load of traffic and so you may spend hours on the road and maybe only move 2 miles. I all but refuse to drive at certain times of the day while I'm visiting my dad. It's not worth the stress. Oh, and did I mention just about every road is in need of repair and cleanup?
