We had planned on having Branden on to talk about games, and (more importantly) the band he's in, Fremont Pike (a.k.a. the band whose song we stole for our intro song. Thanks, fam!), and then Rockstar just HAD to go and drop a new trailer for GTA VI! Luckily, Branden is just as big of a nerd as Mike & Robert, so we all just geeked out on this new look at the biggest game of 2026!Before we dive into the trailer talk, though, we chat...2025-05-081h 51

We gave him a list of video game characters, and asked him to make a different cocktail for each one. For this stream, he walked us through making the drinks, and we had to guess which drink belonged to which character. It was a BLAST! We hung out with the live chat, and we just had a great time.

Since this week is also Valentine's Day, you KNOW we only had one thing on our minds: Video Games! Specifically, how characters from those video games like to, uh... how do I put this... "do the deed". How they "make the beast with two backs", if you will. If they enjoy "hanky panky", if you so wish. Whether or not they, you know....Do it.2025-02-131h 32

Storymoders PodcastEpisode 42: GameSwap w/VerumDex & NeoAoshiOh, hello!
This week, we're joined by not one, not three, but TWO incredible guests, VerumDex & NeoAoshi! These two fine, young cannibals are fans of two different (yet oddly similar...) game series that the other one has never played; Kingdom Hearts (Dex) and Metal Gear Solid (Neo). So, they did what any good friends with backlogs to ignore would do, and they swapped their faves!
In November, Dex played MGS, with Neo providing commentary and assistance, and Neo did the same with KH. We thought it was a fun idea, so we brought them on...2024-12-052h 04
Storymoders PodcastEpisode 41: What We Were Thankful for in Gaming in 2024Oh, hello!
It's Thanksgiving in the US, so we're taking some time to talk about what we're thankful for. We've had a great year on this here podcast, and it's pretty easy to find things that made real life go by a little easier. Plenty love to go around for friends that have joined us, communities we've found, and a certain video game publisher that put out a bunch of games that Robert loved this year.

No predictions in this episode, as we have something SPECIAL planned for that, but plenty of conversations! So many INCREDIBLE games came out this year, and it's going to be fun to talk about what brings home awards and what may have gotten the shaft. We're also joined by VerumDex for a bit, who gives us a dissenting opinion before we throw him into a volcano!

Storymoders PodcastEpisode 39: AntiCap? No Cap! (I'm so sorry...)Oh, hello!
Look, I'm not proud of the title of this episode. I thought of it when I was half asleep, and it was the funniest thing to me at the time. Now? I'm not even sure if I'm using that term correctly. I just don't know.
What I DO know is that this week's episode is all about some of the most subtle anti-capitalist messaging in games from throughout the years! We're talking evil corporations, Libertarian hellscapes, even quaint, backwater company towns. Everything that makes these worlds the best, most freeing places to live, we're talking...2024-11-141h 38

We're joined by my good friend Brandon Arendt, aka Coach Brandon, who teaches us all about what goes into making esports more than just playing games. Brandon's played in high-level Halo leagues, co-owned an esports org, and is now over all esports for his school district, so he knows what he's talking about!

This week, we're diving into the world of Hollywood stars who have dipped their toes (and sometimes more) into the world of video game voice acting! Voices of some of the most ICONIC video game characters of all-time may have faces you recognize. That's not to say that voice acting is an easy gig, we all know how demanding professional voice acting can be. But, the examples in this episode have transcended the idea of an "easy cash-in", and made these roles their own.

HAVE NO SHAME! We all have backlogs, so let's talk about them! We asked you, our beautiful listeners, about your backlogs, and we go through our own Steam libraries to prove that there's nothing wrong with having many (many, many...) games to play! From the entire Yakuza series, to fan remakes of classics, we all have a ton of things we'll TOTALLY get to one day. Think of it this way: the bigger your backlog, the longer you get to game!
What does your backlog look like? What games do we need to add to our own...2024-08-291h 34

Look, we'll be honest, we're both exhausted this week, so we reached into our bag of "don't really have to try" ideas, and VOILA! Our first TIER RANKING episode! This week, we chose a controller list, and we rank them on, uh... somewhat random... criteria. Like, maybe some things went higher due to legacy, or went lower simply because it weighed less than Mario's recently shorn moustache, but HEY! This is OUR list! If you want to argue with it, DO IT!

In this electrifying episode of Play Comics, we’re diving deep into the murky waters of Batman: Dark Tomorrow, the Gamecube and Xbox game that had fans scratching their heads and controllers flying across the room. Based on the contemporary Batman comics of its time, this game had all the makings of a classic—dark, brooding atmosphere, a complex storyline, and our favorite caped crusader. But did it live up to the hype, or did it fall into the depths of Gotham’s sewers?

Storymoders PodcastStorymoders Presents: The Discograph Podcast w/Gage LukeWhen Mike is away, Robert will play (music, at high volumes)!
Don't be confused, you're not in the wrong place! Mike went on vacation and left me (Robert) in charge, so I'm doing something a bit different. I've had this idea for a music podcast for a while now, and the best person I could turn to is our good friend Gage Luke from Neon Pocket Dimension! We used this episode as a sort of "backdoor pilot" episode, to see if this concept is something that we would want to make more of.
