Yes, as soon as I saw your name I got so excited, this has made my week! That was such a fun show and what a crazy line up.. I have fond memories too. I hope you're doing well! By the way- we have a bassist now, changed our name to Luddgang, and recorded an album that's getting mixed up.. hopefully we can go on tour again one day!

2022-08-31 14:38:40 +0000 UTCOk I’m essentially live commenting this episode at this point; im recommending the Sleeping Dogs soundtrack. There’s a Daptone records radio channel that SLAPS

2022-08-31 14:10:21 +0000 UTCBrandon, take back what you said about KÖLSCH.

2022-08-31 13:53:46 +0000 UTCI’d wanna play thru Magical Truck Adventure tho if I had 1000 quarters. That game looks wacky.

2022-08-31 13:51:38 +0000 UTCRevolution X!!!! Dude there’s a sound clip in there of Steven Tyler yelling “DON’T GIVE UP!!” That’s made me laugh so hard that I pulled a muscle in my neck. At the same time, that sound clip feels like the entire inspiration for the Homestarrunner-based band, Limozeen

2022-08-31 13:50:26 +0000 UTCooh wow, jaffe's mic is terrible this week, sorry!! We'll work on that.

2022-08-30 06:04:39 +0000 UTCThere was oddly not a reply button to your reply on my comment, but Yes! I'm the same Kakofonous. That show is still a fond memory, and I love y'all's music! It's fantastic that we've crossed paths again.

2022-08-30 03:26:50 +0000 UTCHi Kakofonous- this is very random.. but do you remember seeing Riley and Howe play at Seventh Circle like 5 years ago?? Either you or someone else by your name saw us at that show and has supported us ever since.. I just had to check!

2022-08-29 23:11:50 +0000 UTCTurns out the flavor of Kolsch hasn't changed since then! (and I'll get on the snes cart train maybe October-ish? ~brandon)

2022-08-29 17:00:38 +0000 UTCI thought Brandon might be on shudder! I loved the old guy antagonist in Winterbeast, what a strange and flavorful actor

2022-08-29 16:37:50 +0000 UTCAlso, last post but I hope you do start experimenting with your snes flashcart because I would really like to hear the redone bsnesgoat podcast you guys discussed doing on the consolebration episode.

2022-08-29 16:14:20 +0000 UTCYou did get the twenty five percent hog joke correct btw lol. I just listened to that episode last week.
Sam
2022-08-29 15:54:52 +0000 UTCI’m almost completely certain you also mentioned moldy sponge beer in a conversation about Gamescom on the original iteration of podcast lol.
