Filmspotting cohost Adam Kempenaar takes a break from film reviews to chime in on the hit musical Hamilton and why he feels it has moved him so much since he saw it on Broadway in February (and subsequently in Chicago in October). While there is plenty of time spent on how Lin-Manuel Miranda's artistic feat shines from Burr's opening number to Eliza's closer, there's also exploration of the magic and singular nature of live theatre that has been reinvigorated for Adam this year. In his mind, Hamilton is a story about greatness and those who aspire to it. Listen up, get all the songs stuck in your head forever, and feel the warmth of Adam's anecdotes about how this show has brought him closer to his children in a way maybe nothing else has before.

On the third anniversary of the release of the first episode of MBSing, MBS holed up in a studio and took 35 calls from past guests of the show. The topics ranged from specific episode updates to current concerns to catching up. Here's the second installment of nine calls from friends: Stephen Kropa, who caught me up on all things Harmon and Wright since our first chat. Jessie Stegner, who started a podcast of her own recently and was looking forward to Little Mermaid at the Hollywood Bowl. Becca Taubel, who completed The Tanners trio and talked time. Tim Swindle, who went on morning radio to judge players of his game Utter Nonsense and teased an upcoming expansion. Tim Dunn, of Talking Games, who spoke of being less busy and comparing notes on living with a SO. Alex Trepka, who reminisced our times on Squall and compared the turnover in the wrestling world to the improv world we are a part of. Nate Bechtel, who honors his dad's time with the State Dept that caused a lot of their travel and reflects on travel he's done since our chat. Meg Johns, who asked about my dad being in Cats and let me pour some stories at her. Brendan Dowling, who enjoyed the mystery of The Whites (and doesn't know it yet but is waiting for me to catch up on UnReal for a chat about that). Thanks to Emporium Arcade Bar, The Chicago Podcast Cooperative, and Lizzo.

Our guest for this episode is Brooklyn-based Hallie Bateman, an Illustrator and Writer who is a contributor at The Awl, The New Yorker, and Buzzfeed, and who’s work has been published all over the place! We spoke with Hallie over Skype about pen-pals, sketching habits, her drawing style, and about what she has been working on lately. Bonus: we took a couple of minutes to each do a quick sketch (see them below!). A big “thank you” to Emporium Arcade Bar, and The Chicago Coop for sponsoring this episode!

In this episode we had the pleasure of chatting with cartoonist and man of many talents, Nate Beaty, in his apartment as he prepared a homemade piñata for an upcoming birthday party (happy belated birthday Nate!). Nate talked about how he got into drawing and making comics, even showing us what might have been the first comic he ever made, and shared with us some of his influences and some insights about his process. A big thanks to Emporium Arcade Bar for sponsoring this episode — they’ve got tons of awesome classic games, and even Twilight Zone pinball!

Along with likely being the first person to ever tell me I should host my own podcast, Nathan Brewer is also the first person I've ever met who would defend Home Alone 3 as the best film of the Home Alone series. He champions the follow up to the first two [similar] films as a successful spy movie with a child protagonist, calling it both the Tootsie of Home Alone films (for it's tight, three-act structure) and the John Wick of Home Alone films (for getting each individual aspect of the genre right and thus working well as a unit). He's watched the movie at least once a year with his family since its 1997 release and even got a girlfriend out of his devotion to defending its honor. Check out Nathan's group, Legends in the Game.

Meghan has been booking performers for and hosting Thunderdome, an irreverent comedy variety show, for almost a year. We get into a lot of the frustrations and revelations that have arisen as a result, including the inevitability of a weekly show happening regardless of being ready for it, balancing life (school, love, self) with being an aspiring performer, and the energy necessary to book the best, most diverse acts. There's some talk in here on the current state of the Chicago comedy community where women and show density are concerned, and we explore what it's like to take over a show and maintain its voice while being true to and discovering your own. Plus, there's a story in here about when Thunderdome became an impromptu one-woman show that is EASILY worth the price of admission ($3). Thanks to Emporium Arcade Bar for sponsoring.

That Dragon, Cancer is an immersive adventure-style video game created by a couple to help them cope with their infant son's cancer diagnosis and eventual death. If that sounds like a downer, well, it is. This is a pretty serious episode, so for once, we keep the Wings bits to only the intro. Thanks to guest Lisa Burton for joining us in getting real this week! Thanks also to our sponsors for the episode, the Emporium Arcade Bar, and thanks as always to the Chicago Podcast Coop.  If you're curious, the Radiolab episode about the game Lisa mentions can be found here. 

Be prepared for an excellent MBSing episode full of campfires, merit badges, and Eagle Scouts with my friend Adam. He loves how much he learned as a scout, the time he got to spend with some of his best friends and father, and all the nights spent around a campfire (that he built) cooking for and otherwise entertaining his troop. It doesn't surprise me to learn that the BSA was a very formative aspect of young Adam's life as he's only ever treated me and the audiences I've seen him entertain with the kindness and respect one would expect from a card-carrying Eagle Scout. A fun promo for Tiny Fascists, the show we spend a decent amount of time reminiscing about.

Remington Cleve, host of the I Made You a Mixtape podcast and creator of the Dessert First Network unleashes the music in Dottore's heart - and an alarming, tuburculoid lung-illness. Tangents about as these fellows crack each other up and sometimes teach you how sound works. Sorry dead people. This ep is sponsored by Emporium Arcade Bar.

This past weekend, the boys in Talking Games raised $1650 for Extra Life, a game-based charity. This is tremendous. To do so, they had to play video games for 24 hours straight. As you might imagine, this could take a toll on one's sanity. This episode, recorded at hour 21 of the fundraiser, provides a testament to that, as Tim, Clayton, and Kellen review the previous day's games and guests and get caught in a spiral of madness centered on the game Hatoful Boyfriend. Enjoy this glimpse into a sleep-deprived, game-playing psyche! Also, thanks to our sponsors for this episode, Emporium Arcade Bar, and thanks to the Chicago Podcast Coop too!

(Thanks to our sponsor Emporium Arcade Bar, as part of the Chicago Podcast Coop!) We’re finishing up HORROR OCTORBOR FOUR-BOR, our exploration of foreign horror films, with Guillermo Del Toro’s 2001 historical supernatural drama The Devil’s Backbone! Justin Gerber of Consequence of Sound joins us to talk about Del Toro’s spiritual sibling to his later film Pan’s Labyrinth, in which a group of orphans deal with the ghost of their deceased friend while the staff of the orphanage tries to navigate the precarious sociopolitical climate of post-Civil War Spain in the 1930s. It’s a great, atmospheric horror film, perhaps one of Del Toro’s finest works, and it’s well worth watching. Check it out along with our custom cocktail and drinking rules below!

On this week's Talking Games, what starts as a discussion with guest Eleni Sauvageau about guns and fighting in video games turns into a deeper discussion about what makes up a game in general. Can one have a game if there's no direct opposition in it? Does something like Gone Home count? Deep! Thanks to our sponsors for the episode, Emporium Arcade Bar, and thanks as always to the Chicago Podcast Coop! And once again, here's the link for the Talking Games team's Extra Life fundraiser!

Last year, Alex Honnet came on our show to chat about Hearthstone, a digital TCG sensation sweeping the nation! Now it's out on iOS, and Tim sits down with guests Mike Brunlieb and Alan Linic to dig into the game once again! They'll talk class rankings, strategies, annoying opponents, and even more. Thanks to our sponsors for the episode, Emporium Arcade Bar, and thanks as always to the Chicago Podcast Coop!

Alex Cox, Deputy Events Manager at Cards Against Humanity and cohost of the Roboism podcast, came on MBSing to talk of her love of all the little robots in her life. From R2D2 to Siri and an MIT robotics lab to Ex Machina, we cover a lot of AI and Sci-Fi robot ground all within a discussion of gender, feminism, and general altruism and humanity as it relates to robotics and the empathy that makes us humans.  Thanks to Emporium Arcade Bar for sponsoring and The Chicago Podcast Cooperative for coordinating sponsorships and support.

This week, Theo joins us once more to talk Lisztomania, the off-the-wall glam rock biopic of famed German composer Franz Liszt, played by The Who's Roger Daltrey! Lisztomania plays up the pseudohistorical tale of "history's first rock star" in typical 70s camp fashion. Get ready for giant fake dicks, robes made of piano keys, and Richard Wagner as Zombie Rock Hitler being defeated by the power of love; we sure weren't. Take a listen and check out our custom cocktail and drinking rules! (Thanks to this episode’s sponsor Emporium Arcade Bar as part of the Chicago Podcast Coop!)

Tim Swindle of Utter Nonsense stopped by for brunch talk, and we had the best time exploring our favorite things about everyone's favorite weekend meal. From preferences on how we like everything cooked to what we like to drink to how we like to socialize, we cover a lot of ground [coffee]. Probably not the best idea to listen on an empty stomach. In the last year, Tim turned a penchant for providing entertainment for his brunch guests into a party-perfect card game called Utter Nonsense. As of this week, it's available in all Target stores. It's very cool! Thanks to Emporium Arcade Bar and the Chicago Podcast Cooperative for sponsoring.

This week's Talking Games is NO guests, NO rules! First, Kellen, Clayton, and Tim sit down to talk about why Konami seems like a horrible place to work in a truly terrifying segment. Then they touch on a bunch of other stuff, like the indie game market today, ending with a long discussion of Destiny. Will Tim ever get a mic so he can talk while he plays?! Thanks to our sponsors for this episode, Emporium Arcade Bar, as well as the Chicago Podcast Coop. They know why. 

The crew returns to discuss con etiquette, which turns into more of a list of don'ts.

The Chicago Nerd Social Club is proud to be participating in Chiditarod Chicago this Saturday by running the checkpoint station at Emporium Arcade Bar! Chiditarod is now in its 9th year of causing creative mayhem for a good cause: raising funds to benefit local organizations fighting hunger, and raising food donations for the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Last year the Chiditarod Foundation awarded $20K in grant money to organizations fighting hunger, and the event raised over 17K lbs of food and over $34K in funds. If you're interested in helping us smash those records, there are two ways you can do so: 1) Donate funds via our First Giving link - each checkpoint team is doing their part to raise funds for the Chiditarod Foundation. Help us show Chiditarod just how awesome the nerdy, geek community is - whether you're a Chicagoan or from out of town, we'd love to have your support in any amount you are able to give. http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/ChicagoNerdSocialClub/chiditarod-2014 2) Donate food to the checkpoint!
