This week, I make a PSA about getting back on track, open a Disney Doorable, preview the upcoming 2024 Halloween season, and more! Sorry folks, this week is a visual feast, but audio can still be enjoyed!

I am happy to finally present a long overdue essay, Adult Learning & The Long Dark. This is the whole story of my journey going back to college as an adult. I hope you'll find some of these stories relatable and maybe even able to inspire.

This week: I talk about where I have been, what I've got coming up, and dive into the glory days of film club in college.

This week, I'm joined by special guests Damon Schneider and Mike Putchel, who you may know from MPS Mysteries From Beyond and a few various other projects. We go over some random questions, including who would be the perfect cast for the "Film Club Movie". Then we dive into their current project, a true crime podcast called The Monfils 6 Podcast.

This episode was originally recorded on 1/20/24 and was supposed to be Episode 1 of a brand-new gaming podcast with Jaime & Chris Jones.

However, due to some problems near the end and our wanting to flesh things out a bit more, we decided to make this one of those back-door pilot episodes.

In this episode, we introduce a new segment called "Backlog Slayers", we talk about a wide variety of topics, including upcoming games we're thrilled and not so thrilled about, cool handhelds, and so much more!
