Hey! In about 45 minutes we're playing Mysterium... LIVE in Milwaukee. Death, Ghosts... and Fun. Come and chat with us! Watch Here:

ABBOTT: Japanese developers today have unique names, like FromSoftware COSTELLO: From what ABBOTT: FromSoftware COSTELLO: I thought you said it was from Japan ABBOTT: It is COSTELLO: But what's the name of the developer ABBOTT: FromSoftware COSTELLO: The Software's From Japan, though ABBOTT: Yes

In about an Hour, Marty and I will be doing a sponsored stream for Full Circle. I assume, a game about anime dudes getting stuck in a round-a-bout. Watch Here:

Here's something weird. I'm streaming again in like 10 minutes. @thejenna.bsky.social and I are continuing Elden Ring CO-OP We might even play this time or we might just sit by a bonfire and chat again! Watch Here:

In about an hour, I'll be chatting movies and TV with Marty and @darrenmooney.bsky.social. I liked Digger but understand why all y'all didn't. I... mostly... liked Lanterns but don't understand all the hate. !.... bet you didn't realize that was an exclamation point. Watch/Listen Here:

I think any critisism of "Digger" (2026) is valid and understandable. But, gosh darn it, I love a weirdo movie with a big message and tiny fake airplanes!!!

Omar and the team have been pushing for this shirt for A WHILE now. I don't get it... but this old man can only shake his fist at so many clouds... know what I mean?!?! Shop.SecondWindGroup.com

I really liked Lanterns. Great story, good character arcs, quality acting. I would have loved a little more action and also… apparently we need to keep tapping this sign!!!

I just wanted to bring consistent rules and scoring to a RLM trivia show... I'm going to say, it ALMOST worked. Watch "Jack of All Trivia" here:

We had a little extra time in Milwaukee, so we filmed a wrap up episode. It's a bunch of us talking about the season... the series and just sitting in the warmth of finishing the story for a bit longer. Watch it today at 11:00am CT

In about an hour, @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I are NOT PLAYING DARK SOULS! I know... Instead we'll be trying out the Demo for "False Hero" A Souls-Like that looks interesting. Watch Here:

In about 45 minutes, I'm joining @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social for the appropriately titled... Yahtzee Tries. Today looking at "RetroSpace" and "Normal Golf Game" One being, surely, not normal and the other being arguably retro. Watch Here:

You know that shitty beat that plays after AI edited slop shorts? We've all doom-scrolled and heard it... Did you know that that beat has it's own genre?! "Drift Phonk", which is a sub-genre of "phonk".... 2 real genres! Part of the joys & terrors of having teenagers is learning things like this.

It's Monday morning... A perfect time for a live mashup of "Wannabe" & "Hocus Pocus" (by Focus)

Five years and two companies later... today we're wrapping up the first Adventure is Nigh campaign! A show that has brought everything we've built over the last 8 years together as a team and community. Join us in 40 min for the epic finale. Don't worry, there will be more Adventure is Nigh!

Tomorrow. The story we've been telling for the past 5 years... comes to an end. Watch Here:

in about 15 minutes, @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I will continue the Dark Souls Randomizer run! We hit a wall with Super-Smough in Nito's arena.... with all the skeletons! Will we break trough today or will we give up?!?!? Watch Here:

in about 30 minutes, @darrenmooney.bsky.social, Marty and I will be talking about the most important thing in the world!!!... a movie that is adapted from a video game. I'll be talking about Cregger's whole back catalogue... which I (shockingly) have more bad to say than good. Watch/Listen Here:

In about 40 minutes @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I are are back randomly going through Dark Souls. I did dome digging and THINK I found where some key items are... it's not going to be fun. Watch Here:

UUuuuuugg. Here it is, the most modern of 1st world problems. There's only 1 YouTuber making explainer content for for an INCREDIBLY NICHE subject.... and they SUCK at presenting information and editing!

I think Resident Evil (2026) is dumb, silly, and full of videogame logic. (complimentary) Overall, I liked it but it does biff something so bad that that biff is all I'm thinking about. So I give it a resounding "meh".

Part of me is sad that this story arc is ending, but I'm also immensely grateful that it was able to reach an actual conclusion after The Escapist's demise. Even having never watched any D&D-based stories before, I cannot recommend this series enough. Easily one of the best things on YouTube.

I am once again asking everyone to please check out the best #DnD show on the internet. This is out now and is one of the best episodes of an already excellent season.

In 45 minutes!!!!

Tomorrow's episode is not the finale of the season... but it does have "Big Finale Episode Energy". Just 2 episodes left in this whole story arc for Adventure is Nigh! Watch Here:

In about 20 minutes @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I are taking a break from Randomly going through Dark Souls so Marty can play Elements Destiny. The stream is sponsored the RPG is Retro The goofs is a pleanty. Watch Here:

In about an hour @thejenna.bsky.social and I will continue our way through a CO-OP Elden Ring. (We got it working this time) And yes, I am typing this while currently streaming... Watch Here:

In about 20 minutes; @darrenmooney.bsky.social, Marty and I will be talking movies and TV on The ReWind! Mostly about the fantastic Lanterns but I (shockingly) have a fair bit to say after a recent rewatch of The Room. Is it a hot or new take!?!?!? I DON'T KNOW!!!!! Watch/Listen Here:

In about an hour @rexiconjesse.bsky.social and I will be live streaming Drova. This is a sponsored stream but I'll be playing the copy I bought last year. Really looking forward to seeing what's new. Watch Here:

in about an hour, @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I are back mapping out the randomized land or Lordran. Will we find the key to the sewers? Will we make out way to Ash Lake?? Will the game crash? ...yes. Watch Here:

No other dungeon master has ever put their players in the scenario that happens in today’s episode of Adventure is Nigh! I guarantee it!! Prove me wrong and I’ll send you a prize. And also, watch here:

In about an hour @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I will randomly continue going through Dark Souls with a randomizer. Next up is me VS 2 Stray Demons… so if you like watching me fail, today’s the day! Watch here:

In about 30 minutes, I'll be joining @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social on Yahtzee tries. I recommended one of the games so, I think, he's having me on to yell at me if it's bad. Watch Here:

AND I'm streaming again, in about 5-10 minutes with @thejenna.bsky.social We're still going through Elden Ring with the CO-OP mod. Co-Operation!!!! Watch Here:

In about an hour: @darrenmooney.bsky.social, Marty, and I will be talking about legacies, Legends, and Looney Tunes. Watch/Listen Here:

There’s a moment at the beginning of Coyote VS Acme where Wyle E Coyote is in a ditch with the Road Runner looking over him. A bomb drops and the RR runs away before it lands… exploding the Coyote. A young kid in the audience turns to his dad and says: “Why didn’t he help him?!!”

In about an hour @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I will continue to be super random in Dark Souls. Until then, I'm trying to learn the "Countif" function in Google Sheets. Yes, it's for trivia.... so what!?!?! Watch Here:

I’m don’t know know if y’all are ready for this episode. Stealth, fights, flights, and betrayal!!! Adventure is Nigh! Watch Here:

Names of mic pickup patterns. We must stop the nonsense. I'm never going to learn which one is "hyper-cardioid." My concrete proposal for simplified nomenclature:

In about an hour, @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I will continue to randomly go through Dark Souls. As in, use a randomizer... in Dark Souls. You'll get it when you see it. Watch Here:

As a society, do we talk enough about how good "True Lies" is? No.

In about an hour; Marty, @darrenmooney.bsky.social and I are talking Movies and TV!!!! For me, full praise to episode 1 of "Lanterns". I'm really looking forward to watching more. And "The End of Oak Street" might be "Deadpool & Wolverine" maybe movies were a mistake... levels of hate. Watch Here:

The End of Oak Street is pure empty spectacle. (Derogatory) It doesn’t even bother to pay homage, it just limply gestures in the general direction of better movies.

Most of my cuts to Adventure is Nigh! boil down to "the players over-explain what they're about to do". Making plans, explaining combat... Because we can just show what they did... or what they failed at. So Ep 7... being mostly combat and making plans means I cut nearly an hour and 45 minutes!!!

Because we couldn't stream yesterday, @prettygrimgames.bsky.social and I will continue the Dark Souls Randomizor stream today! In about an hour. How random... Bizzleburg! Watch Here:
