Kicking off the fun, Grace ponders about little poops and has a quirky meltdown, Kristin struggles with ravioli ruffles and searches for the perfect pen shaft feel, and we bicker about the necessity of onion goggles.

Plus, we’re sharing some of your Mundane Superpowers and reading a cartoonish listener Pizza Secret that may one day serve as an important cautionary tale for the rest of us–only time will tell.

VideoDestruct Podcast VideoDestruct Our weekly podcast where we play a video game and then we talk about it! Hoss (one of our hosts) has a weird encyclopedic knowledge of linking six degrees of any video game developer and we like to break down the historical and cultural significance of a classic or modern game and it’s impact on the video game industry. Explicit That Weird Ass Podcast! Natalie and Maggie Welcome to That Weird Ass Podcast! (TWAP for short.) We honestly have no idea what we're doing, but join us on this wild ride. We talk about random things each episode, so hopefully you won't get bored. If you're starting with our first episode, buckle up because it's gonna be one hell of a bumpy ride! Explicit Nearly Qualified Abpor - Rob Musings of a reclusive video game nerd working in telco who typically ends up far too deep down the rabbit hole. I wanted to share a vehicle for developing my understanding of myself, over-committing to new things and how we fit into a weird cosmic jigsaw puzzle when all the pieces keep changing their sides. I marry my experience in video games with my background in psychology, automation and my career in corporate environments to produce thoughtful and relevant commentary. Explicit Galaktacus Jim Kettner, John Mihaly, and Scott Brown The name Galaktacus originates from a youthful mispronunciation of a classic comic book character best known for eating planets. Before all of the blockbuster film franchises and the non-stop spoiler-filled internet coverage there was limited space to openly discuss such topics let alone their proper pronunciations. ("Is it Mag-neato or Mag-net-o?") So with that in mind, what started as a long-running, inside joke has now become a word that best defines the spirit of this podcast—looking at comic books, sci-fi, film, television, music, literature and gaming from the perspective of individuals who have grown up in this evolving "nerd culture" and are amazed by the ways in which it has taken over the mainstream. Galaktacus attempts to eschew that "angry nerd" character and celebrate the good, the bad and the weird that comes along with this current golden age of pop culture. So let the devouring begin!
