Someone is Wrong on the Internet. Episode 7
Hello all! I’m excited about this episode. Well, really, I’m excited about all of them. It’s not like we do this for money. This one is special because it revolves around a review of two new albums, Artificial Heart by Jonathan Coulton, and Join Us by They Might Be Giants. As a super-bonus, though, we will also be reviewing the recent Chicago concert at the Vic with JoCo opening for TMBG! Yay, super-bonus!
Someone is Wrong on the Internet. Episode 6
Wow. It’s been a month. So . . . when I said we would slow down, I’m not sure I envisioned slowing down this much. But you know, life and all. Anyway, we have another super fun-packed episode for you today! First, we talk just a little bit about our . . . unique(?) parenting choices. Perhaps the choices aren’t as unique as the ways that we justify them. The big segment, though, is us taking to task seven of our favorite television show-runners.

Someone is Wrong on the Internet. Episode 4
Once more with feeling! This is the last of the blitz-like episodes. From here on in, expect a more . . . leisurely pace.

And we finally finish NPR’s “Top 100 Science-Fiction and Fantasy Books” list. I’m off to the woods with my students for a few days, and when I return I expect dialogue! Don’t
A Brief review while I await the Draft
Early in my month-long meme for July, I asked readers for some questions about boardgames that I didn’t consider. It’s been a busy month in the interim, with school gearing up, writing a long review at oldboardgamers.com on A Few Acres of Snow, and Valerie and I starting our new podcast, Someone is Wrong on the Internet (You can check it out at the link, or just assume that it’s awesome and subscribe with one of the two buttons in the side-bar. Is it a shameless plug if the podcast belongs to me?) As I sit here, awaiting the start of
Sorry for the Delay, but ANNOUNCEMENTS!
It’s been about a month since my last entry. After taking 30 straight days to talk about games, I needed a break, and with the school year gearing up, I’ve had to shift my focus for a while. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking of you, dear reader! In fact, there are two things you should know about. First, I did the first of what will probably be many guest pieces for oldboardgamers.com, reviewing the Martin Wallace two player game, A Few Acres of Snow. You should go check it out. I’ll wait. Are you back? Excellent. The other
