Cards Against Humanity is taking over the world. This isn't an opinion, it's not an observation, it's a fact. Every time we've introduced the game to a new group of people the reaction has been the same: "This is the best game I've ever played". Across the board. Maybe we just hang out with fantastic people but that has been our only experience so far. I don't think any of us expect that to change. In this show we've got an interview with five of the creators and they've got some exciting news to share with everyone. Give it a listen and be sure to drop us an email. Trust us.

You'd think that with this being our 50th podcast we'd be celebrating in some way but YO, fuck that noise. We've barely even started. There's way too much geekiness that we haven't gotten to yet so there's no reason to prematurely congratulate ourselves on some false achievement. We'll save all that for episode #99999.

This is the last you'll hear about PAX East 2012 from us for a little bit. Or, at the very least, it will die down to a dull roar. We promise, but we're not good at keeping our promises. Sort of. Plenty of good What'cha Been Doing action in the first half of the show, a recap of our weekend at PAX and a 5 Hit Combo that breaks the tie between Dan and Ryan for overall wins. It's a good'un.

PAX is a time for many things. For us it's a great excuse to get together with friends that live far and wide and nerd out for a few days. But this year we decided to hit the show with a little more structure, and do some good honest work for Perpetual Geek Machine while we were there. This podcast is just another salvo of PAX East 2012 coverage, and culls together all the interviews we conducted on the floor over the stretch of the convention. We played a ton of games... like, a ton. We only cover a fraction of those in this show. So the interviews presented therein aren't indicative of what we thought was cool at the show. And with that, enjoy this special podcast episode! Here's the link to give Perpetual Geek Machine: Show #00048 a listen!
After our Wizards of the Coast meeting we decided to hit the show floor and check out some of the smaller indie dev titles. While trying to make sure we saw everything we also did our best to pull a few of the developers aside and chat them up about their games!
Taking a break from the show floor we decided to head for higher ground and found ourselves in the Kickstarter Arcade room, featuring both current projects and past winners.
Sunday came around too fast, as is always the case with PAX. However before catching a train to head home we decided to squeeze in a few more demos and playtests with a doubleshot of titles at Steve Jackson Games.

We almost had to call this podcast off. On Thursday we all head up to Boston for PAX East 2012 and our excitement was coming to life in the form of extreme hyperactivity. Rich and I were running around my basement uncontrollably until Ryan reached through the internet cables through Skype and shook the hyper out of us. Luckily we were able to calm down long enough to get this show on tape. Err...I mean hard drive. While I've got your attention you should go check out our pals at Fantastic Neighborhood. They're good people that just started a pretty darn great video game podcast. Jump on board now before they blow up. Tell 'em Kevin sent ya.

This show is a great example of what happens when the Forces That Be keep Ryan, Dan and I away from each other for almost two months. We end up having a lot to talk about and, more importantly, having a great time catching up with each other. At a little over two hours this one's a barn-burner for us but having been a part of it I don't think you guys will mine. After all, this is my favorite 5 Hit Combo that we've ever done.

Yeah. It happened. "Real Life" swept us up in its vicious, unrelenting grasp two weeks ago and we missed our regular schedule. Until we can figure out a way to make tons and tons of money off of this while blabbing about geeky stuff to kabillions of loyal listeners missing a show here and there is bound to happen. Regardless, we're sorry for letting you down but we're back this week with another stellar episode of the Perpetual Geek Machine podcast!

I like a show where we hit all sorts of topics in What'cha Been Doing. We were united and varied this week as we shared a lot of the same activities and spread out our attention over all sorts of media consumption. Of course, this sends our first segment into lengthy territory but I don't think anyone will mind. Here's the link to give Perpetual Geek Machine: Show #00043 a listen!

Well, here we are at the most exciting number in any proper geek's life: 42. Of course we chat in Geek Spew about one of the funniest men to ever live, Douglas Adams, and his brilliantly hysterical Hitchhiker's series. We're also catching up on the things we've been doing since our last "normal" podcast, and there's a nice variety in there. Let's get on with the show!
