Ep. 94: Snow Day Spectacular II

You know how this works, right? Well, when it snows, Emily and Josh get stuck in a dungeon and see what amazing friends will show up... if they can stop wishing for it. Fortunately, they get distracted long enough to get a visit from very special guests, Rob & Pernell of the Rhythm and Pixels podcast! Whoah! And the Messenger is with them! Excellent! Join us for some selections by your dungeon-trapped crew as we discuss the metaphoric qualities of video game mechanics, real-life golf simulators, and just what exactly belongs on the walls. And just when the festivities seem almost through, we'll unwrap a surprise seasonal karaoke that will change the way you hear a certain song for all your winters to come. Happy Snowday everybody, and we'll see you next year!

Ep. 93: Into the Barrel

It looks like Emily and Josh are about to beat the game the old fashioned way. While they solidify their place on the scoreboard, they talk about artificial intelligence (again), cheesing with Guile, and Josh declares himself the poor man's champion. Towards the end of the episode Josh and Emily reveal the secret to making things mean more to you (hint: it hurts). Did I mention the tunes are good? I probably didn't have to. After all, this is the VGM Jukebox we're talking about.

P.S. here's the link regarding to the flier at the end of this episode.

Ep. 92: Husband and Married

Welcome back to the VGM Jukebox, where 3D rendering has just been introduced to some pleasantly unpleasant effects. Emily discusses her attachment to randomly generated characters while Josh discusses becoming an NPC in other people's lives. We kind of go off the deep end talking about the practicality of mermaid and alien boobs, so if you have any twelve year olds in the car, prepare to blush. Also, in case you were wondering, Emily and Josh definitely know about that Deep Space 9 episode with tribbles. Last, but not least, we design Emily's dream job. What is it? Tune in to find out!
