So how about we take a peek at a few of the ideas that float around about this version of a “brown...

Microsoft and Nintendo Troll Sony over Crossplay

Videogame Roundtable Episode 339: E3 Swag and Sony Sag This episode follows the three-hour-long E3 episode, but there was so much E3 to talk about, a lot of the show spilled over into this show, including the crew talking about the swag Jonah sent to them, and Sony's "winning" of E3 in terms of media attention. There was going to...

Audioscam- Kicking And Screaming 2018

On a conference call circa August 2011 to promote Audioscam’s second release “When The Money’s Gone” I was introduced to Brian Pitcher.

Podcast: 3 Hours of E3

Videogame Roundtable Episode 338: 3 Hours of E3 This week's episode is three hours long -- Jonah's mic was moving in the first minute, but after that, it's ok. There's no news, just discussion of each of the press briefings that preceded E3, as well as some of the games that Jonah got hands-on time with. TJ is sad that...

Jeff Mastroberti (Jeffland 12) – No Condiments, Please

In April 2015 I received a call from Music & Film Producer Joe Viglione.  The circumstances of the communication were to discuss the upcoming New York Yankee/Boston Red Sox three game series and to afford me an invite to attend a performance by Jeff Mastroberti. Since the end of the 1970’s music and poetry in any form have often lacked...

Capcom Registers Devil May Cry 5 Site, Fueling E3 2018 Rumors

Videogame ROundtable Episode 337: Very Very Late This week's episode is very late thanks to Jonah having to prep for E3, which much of the podcast focuses on. There's even a massive argument between Jonah and TJ about which film was better: Tron or Tron: Legacy, while Tron 2.0 gets its love as well. This week's Gaming Flashback is Microsoft's...
