VGL Franken Episode: Facebook Blues

Jared is losing it, two weeks in a row he's had an outage on the new planned recording night. Enjoy some more Franken Content. It seems we're likely to move the new permanent recording night to Thursday. 

VGL Franken Episode: HOA's

This week threw us so many curveballs. We knew we needed to get the Gameclub done, Rage's work schedules be damned! So we agreed on a different recording night to get this done. Then Spectrum has an all day outage in the entire county where I live. So, I dug around in the archives and found a franken episode that didn't have a correlating name so I think this one has sat buried and unlisted to for 2 whole years. Enjoy!

VGL Franken Episode: What meat is it?

Greetings listeners! This week we have a slightly different than usual franken episode that I explain in an opening stinger. Beyond that, we hope you all have a lovely weekend, and hope to see you again next week!

VGL Franken Episode: Wedding Prelude

This week Jared needed to handle some adulting that could only get taken care of on recording night. Damn you financial responsibility! This franken is part 1 of Jared's recent weekend adventure to a very rich family's wedding. Part 2 will show up on the next franken episode. Enjoy your week!

VGL Podcast Ep 337: Baldurs Gate 3 (July Gameclub)

This week we finally get back to it. We spend a long time talking about Baldur's Gate 3, and "spolers" we love this game. We look forward to seeing how many times it shows up on the VGL Awards this year. 

For Show Date: 8/13/2024 

 

1. July Gameclub: Baldur’s Gate 3
2. Next Gameclub: Lollipop Chainsaw

VGL Franken Episode: The Cowboy Can Be Gay If You Want

Rage had a very bad work schedule this week, and we were unable to connect up for a recording. We've got a short franken episode this week, and I'm putting together some solo content for if/when we can't record. The next recorded episode is still the Baldur's Gate Gameclub, and hopefully we are recording this coming week. 

VGL Franken Episode: My Wife's Car Landfill

Due to severe weather in Jared's area, we couldn't trust the internet or power to stay stable enough to record this week. The Baldur's Gate Gameclub is coming in our next episode, and we're very excited to spend 40 hours discussing the game. See you soon!
