Here we go!  The last of the “old format” shows and this time we’re talking games.  


We’ve got a Hordes DOMINATION event to discuss as well as some Heroclix, so enjoy.


Next week, we move to a “half and half” format of both comics and games.  Have any good topics about either of those you’d like to bring up and kick off a conversation?  Let us know!


Intro and outro is “Mr. Jinx” by Quarashi.

Where the hell have you been?  We’ve been ready to listen for days and only NOW do you get off your lazy ass to post it?!

 

This is my motivation. It’s what all of you should be yelling at me.

 

We’re back to talk comics!  Been awhile, but we’re going on and on about some really good reads lately.

 

SHOW NOTE: In a couple of weeks we’ll be introducing a new format, but if you have any suggestions for changes you think we should add to the show, please let us know by email, Facebook, twitter, etc.

LXG Episode 121: We had a point, once, but those days are long gone. (General)

This podcast contains explicit content | Played: 82 | Download | Duration: 01:06:38


This episode was supposed to go up days ago, too.  Computer issues...yada yada yada.  Check your feed accordingly, please!


As the year comes to a close, we’re doing a few episodes where we just open the mic with a loose topic and see where the conversation leads us.


Does it work?  You tell us!  With the new year we’ll be adding a few tweaks to the show, so we always welcome input!


This time out we talk about anything that comes to mind.  Seriously.  Anything.  From stupid Christmas songs to Mayan doomsday.


Basically, each year we all have to work at the store on Christmas Eve, so we just have our Christmas party at the same time.  Some food, some games, etc.  All we did here was turn on the mics for part of the conversation.  Welcome behind the curtain.  It’s all just a puppet show now!


Intro and outro is “Christmas - Sarajevo” by Trans-Siberian Orchestra (my favorite Christmas song of all).


Enjoy!

This podcast contains explicit content | Played: 51 | Download | Duration: 01:11:26


OK, this was supposed to go up days ago.  Computer issues prevented this, so expect a double-load of episodes as 121 will be posted quickly after this one.  Check your feed accordingly, please!

This time out we talk games.  We’ve had a 40K tourney recently, we’re in the middle of a WarmaHordes Journeyman League, and we have a Domination AND a Steamroller event coming up.  Here’s our state of the play...

LXG Episode 117: Thankscomics. (Comics)

This podcast contains explicit content | Played: 78 | Download | Duration: 01:09:50


Happy Thanksgiving!  Matt and Darren sit down to record a holiday edition of the show talking about a few trade collections that we’ve been enjoying.


We focus in on three titles this time out and we highly recommend all of them.  First up is Skull-Kickers from Image, which has two volumes of sword and sorcery insanity out.  Next is FreakAngels from Avatar Press, with all six volumes being out to complete this post-apocalyptic-steam-punk-psychic-parable-for-early-twenties-post-slackers storyline.  Finally, we talk Locke & Key from IDW, one of the creepiest and most well-written stories with incredibly rich detail that literally opens doors to your fantasies and nightmares.


Intro and outro is “I Hear the Bells” by by Mike Doughty.


Enjoy!

LXG Episode 116: The Lake House. (Games)

This podcast contains explicit content | Played: 64 | Download | Duration: 01:20:27


After a false start that you (thankfully) will miss out on, Danny, Jeff, and Matt get down to talking about “Domination.”  It’s the new HORDES book from Privateer Press.  


In this one we cover half of the new material.  As there’s 5 factions (I know, Minions aren’t a faction, but they have their own section and get coins now with tourney events, so deal with it) we talk about two and a half of them: the Trollbloods, the Skorne, and the Farrow.


It looks like everyone’s after an Anthanc....except the Trolls, who just want you off their lawn.


Intro and outro is “Iko Iko” by by some half-assed karaoke group.


Enjoy!

LXG Episode 115: Free digital download included with this podcast. (Comics)

This podcast contains explicit content | Played: 73 | Download | Duration: 01:20:23


It’s a comic book episode this week and after so many weeks with a focus on DC, we actually end up with an all-Marvel show this time out.  (Soon, an all-Indie show.)  


We start off with some news from Marvel involving their new digital initiative and speculate on what it could lead to, then move on to some issues that we’ve really enjoyed over the past couple of weeks.


Next week, a game-based show.  Maybe 40K, maybe Warmachine/Hordes.  Maybe both!  New releases all around and we’re getting our hands dirty.


Intro and outro is “Neverending Story” by The Birthday Massacre.


Enjoy!

LXG Episode 114: Toy Boat. Toy Boat. ToyBoat. ToyBoytToyBode. (Games)

This podcast contains explicit content | Played: 43 | Download | Duration: 01:16:30


Here you have it!  At long last, a games-based episode!  We’re actually taking a look at a couple of board games this time around, broken up with a bit of 40K talk.

 

Speaking of 40K, we start with a letter from Imagine and his doings at the Feast of Blades.  Check out www.feastofblades.com to get the whole story.

 

First up, we FINALLY take a look at Settlers of Cattan, one of those evergreen board game titles that’s certainly a best seller in our store.

 

Next, we check in with Kyle on how he’s doing getting back into 40K and practicing for an upcoming tourney in December.

 

Finally, we talk about Cargo Noir, another board game with a lot of character and a cool design.

 

So, does either game have the replay value?  Are their racist overtones?  FIND OUT BY LISTENING! (…please…)

 

Enjoy!

 

Intro and outro music is “Beer” from Reel Big Fish.
