Episode Details

This week on the show, we are celebrating the 500 episode mark with a story!  I alluded to some of this in the past few weeks and was inspired by the scene in the 1988 film, Big, where both the young and adult Josh play a CGA text parser style game with a wizard and a cavern. 

You will be hearing from the following guests in this episode that I am happy to call friends:

• ​Shawn Wells and Colin Stewart, hosts of the podcast, I Used to Like This One, who recently hit a milestone of themselves, discussing rewatching Back to the Future, a few months ago on their episode 200.
• ​Paul Korman - one of the hosts of the Classic Gamers Guild podcast as well as the game designer of the adventure game, The Phantom Fellows. 
• ​Andrew Adams - drummer, martial artist, and podcaster of the martial arts lifestyle company, Whistlekick (they recently hit a major milestone of their own, episode 1000).
• ​Gad Krooder - a fellow martial artist I also know from Whistlekick who has his own Chinese Youtube channel - go and learn some Chinese!
• ​Ryan Armstrong - BIblical scholar, professor, and bboy (Dynamic Rockers) - check out his Youtube channel for a combination of the 80s, the Old Testament, and Hebrew. Check out his book, The Book of Job in Wonderland if you are wondering how Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland relate to the book of Job in the Bible.
• ​Doug Bernon - one of my long standing trusted mentors who is also an adventurer and bread maker. 
• ​Jeremy Blum - writer, TTRPG DM and developer, and most importantly, my brother, who is in the process of launching an ecology and exploration rpg, Mappa Mundi.
