The Talking Place

It’s the place where we talk. About what? That depends on the week! Every show brings a new guest, and with them, a new topic to cover. And if there’s no guest, I’ll be going on by myself, speaking my thoughts and opinions on anything from gaming, dad stuff, and life in general. If you’re looking to talk, I know a place.

BONUS | The Black Friday Call-in

It's the first call-in show! This week's bonus episode is focused on Black Friday. I sit down all by my onesies and talk about BF and deals and memories and such, recollecting times when I would break night in a line just to save a few bucks. MAN, I love Black Friday. Even though it's technically like all week now, but whatever. I also touch on my thoughts about BF spilling into Thanksgiving, which will always suck but it is what it is. It wouldn't be a call-in show without some call-ins so I'd ...

002 | Smoking Meats with Matt & Beardy

Get the Meat Sweats Welcome to episode 2 of The Talking Place! Joining me today is my former partner in crime, Beardy McWhiskey, along with one third of the Bad Fodder Figures Podcast, Matt Helmer.

This show was recorded back in August, when I was still debating the name of the show. I'm sorry, The Lingering Table. I hardly knew thee. It was a blast talkin...

Episode Zero

WELCOME! It's been a long time coming for this little project of mine. I feel like the thought of it has been bounced around forever, and the actual process of getting it going has been going on for months. But here we are! Episode Zero! The original plan was to have a bunch of episodes up and going when I launched, but yeah, that wasn't happening. Best thing to do was to just take the leap and try flapping. A few months ago I imagined I was going to be all ready, like a plane taking off, all my...
