Episode 12: Special Guest, Mike Vallas (Part 2)
August 08, 2016 08:11Here we are again! Gaming AM returns with our longest episode EVAR! Clocking in at a MASSIVE 3 hours, I decided to leave this one together rather than split it into a third part. The reason? 'Cause Mike Friggin' Vallas that's why, and you deserve it all at once! We had an absolute blast with Vallas, and we can't thank him enough for taking the time to hang out with us in the multi-million dollar Gaming AM studio. We covered a wide range of subjects over the course of the night, and there's ...
Episode 11: Special Guest, Mike Vallas (Part 1)
July 25, 2016 21:46The greatest podcast in the world just got even greatester! It's our first special guest, Mike Vallas! He's a former EGM editor with many stories to tell, so I'll shut my trap and let him get to it!
Episode 10: Hail Hydra!
July 12, 2016 01:19Well, here it is, the big ONE-O! Episode 10 of the greatest podcast in the world. This highly anticipated episode was delayed by an unforeseen computer failure, which we're sure was somehow Denny's fault. Repairs of said computer took some time, but now all is well, and here we are again! This one was recorded on the same day as our live stream about Captain America being an Hydra agent, so some of the subject matter carries over, but a wide range of other subjects are also tackled. Some of...
Episode 9: Captain America: Civil War
May 30, 2016 11:51In observance of Memorial Day, here it is: Our last episode in the single digits! Today on the greatest podcast in the world, we discuss The 80's Transformers Marvel comic as well as our experience watching the 80's Transformers animated series for the first time (via The Bozo Show here in Chicago). I keep stressing "80's" because I don't want to lose listeners who may be confused and thinking we discuss Michael Bay movies. We also talk about that one movie... You know, that one that came o...
Episode 8: Pop Culture Stream of Consciousness
May 16, 2016 08:51The title of this episode is more of a slogan for Gaming AM, as this episode encapsulates what we're all about. In the editing process we listen to the episode back, and this time I thought it would be fun to bust out the flowchart in an attempt to connect the dots and figure out this little show we call Gaming AM... We begin with a discussion about Tom's experience at a screening of the 1979 classic Alien, and this rolls into a discussion about The Wizard of Oz, which leads to Oz the great ...
Episode 7: Captain Janeway Sucks
May 02, 2016 06:00We're back again with Episode 7, in which we spend an hour discussing the many reasons Captain Janeway is the worst captain in Starfleet. Yes, worse than the captain of the U.S.S. Grissom (very nerdy Star Trek 3 reference; if you've seen it enough times, you know how bad that guy was, and Janeway is worse). It's not all negative, we also talk about some of the captains we love, plus general Star Trek nerddom (my spell-checker is flagging that word, nerddom... not sure it's legit). In our s...
Episode 6: You're on the Air!
April 18, 2016 05:00Episode 6 is here, and this time we've done something new and different because hey, that's what keeps the show fresh! Last week we opened up the Gaming AM Hotline (773-492-2642), and some of you left us voicemails! In this way we're allowing you, our listeners, to shape the future of the show to your liking. So today's Gaming AM Hotline topic was Star Wars! Specifically, The Force Awakens home video release and extras. Next, we chat up the Rogue One trailer. Then we discuss some of the enc...
Episode 5: NOT Batman v Superman
April 04, 2016 09:30Here is Episode 5 of the greatest podcast in the world, where we spent two hours talking about our mutual disdain for Batman v Superman. Then we immediately threw that episode in the dumpster where it belongs, in favor of much better and meaningful conversations about topics such as: Resident Evil movies, The Marvel and DC TV universes, Sam Witwer, Vic Mignogna, David Hayter v Hideo Kojima, Ghostbusters trailer, Fatal Fury, The Room, Arslan Senki, Robotech and other anime, Street Fighter G....
Episode 4: The Retro Apprentice Continues
March 21, 2016 05:00Happy other Monday! What's other Monday you ask? Well we here at Gaming AM like to post episodes every other Monday, so this being one of those "other Mondays" we have proclaimed it other Monday... day! So happy other Monday, or should I say happy new episode day? Or should I say this bit has run it's course... Episode 4, wherein we discuss a certain failed video game console, as well as a couple recent and decent sci-fi fan films we've been watching. PLUS... DAVID WARNER! Greatest podcast ...
Episode 3: Sutorīto Faitā
March 07, 2016 18:00As promised here is Episode 3 of the greatest podcast in the world, Gaming AM. This of course is the second half of Episode 2, in which we actually manage to get to the subject at hand, Street Fighter! We share our fond memories of playing each of its MANY iterations over the years, as well as discussing the history of the series we love so dearly. In addition, Tom discusses his feelings about the recently released Street Fighter V. This one is another epic two-hour extravaganza, which we'l...
Episode 2: Attack of the Jabrones
February 23, 2016 05:59We present for your consideration, Gaming AM Episode 2. Yes, it seems this is going to be a regular thing despite your belief that we were one-off rage-quitters. We're back again, this one is titled "Attack of the Jabrones", because it's Episode 2, and it sort of rhymes with Attack of the Clones. Why would we want to rhyme with arguably the worst Star Wars movie, which could be further argued that it's the worst "movie" period? Because f*** you that's why. Good news, it's another two-hour e...
Episode 1: Where It All Began
February 08, 2016 07:43After two years of talking about it, we finally did it. It's a Podcast! Gaming AM is here! Here is Episode 1, entitled "Where It All Began", and it's a special two hour premiere event! If you make it to the end, then you are truly ready for what lies ahead in the coming weeks and months... In the first hour we discuss who we are, how we got here, and why were doing this. The second hour we get into our actual topic, which this week is (appropriately) game music. We hope you are entertai...
