Download Episode 1028 – That’s right, it’s another birthday episode on SML and who is the victim this time? JOE? Like, the guy we never address in these writeups? Huh.The show kicks off with our birthday host Joe being joined by the PartyCast crew of Pernell Vaughan, Chris Taylor, Bri Galgano, Big Adam Chase, Horror Acolyte, Aki, and Matt Pie (not pronounced pie) making his debut on the show, all just to hang out with little ol’ me for my 44th birthday. We chat about Burger King jingles, bad t-shirts you can buy on our Merch store (link above. It’s my birthday. Buy something.), beavers and how they will destroy the world, and that’s like just the first 15 minutes.We also we have Dave K stopping later to hang out with the rest of the ParytCast for a spell to chat about the meaning of SML and a little wrassling. Plus constant soundboard abuse and small pack of reviews including Assassin’s Creed Shadows, provided to us by UBISOFT, and one written by Horror Acolyte but read by George “norg” Nowik! That’s right, Horror Acolyte is on the show but doesn’t actually read his own review. We made norg do it. He wanted to wish me a happy birthday and couldn’t make the recording, so YEAH. I swear Horror did say something on the episode. Not much, but there was, uh, that one time? Yeah.

I can't recall if I've ever done an episode regarding MAGFest, so I'm extremely excited to not only have that for you today but with a twist! I'm joined by Lance/Toaster as he details what it's like staffing the event as part of the A/V crew. Particularly going into detail about the arcade section of the con. Learn what goes into a job like this with controlling a myriad of lights as well as his thoughts on how the convention scene has changed from when he first started going to now. This was a really insightful conversation and I hope you all enjoy :)

We were gonna climb some mountains on this episode but then John went sledding in Tallahassee and got his fill so we're doing a FREEPLAY.

This week we welcome animation director Chris Burns of Exit 73 Studios to the show! Chris's career started with animated TV shows at networks like Adult Swim and Comedy Central, and his own game-inspired pilots eventually led him to pursuing game dev proper. His studio's first project, the dungeon crawler #BLUD, is a love letter to 90's animation and top-down action games like The Legend of Zelda. If you're in the northeast US, check his team out at MAGFest next month! Music from TLC. LINKS:
