He's also a firm supporter of worker's rights and equality. Casual Yelling is a mixture of both, jumping between interviews with game devs, actors, and more, along with editorializing the current state of the country and how we treat marginalized people and the working class. Yes, this show is all over the place. We're aware.https://casual-yelling.captivate.fmfalseepisodicnopodcastThe Only Time I Headlined As A ComedianThe Only Time I Headlined As A ComedianCasual Yelling is back, with an official third season--after one episode of Season 2. I'm returning to the world of stand-up comedy in the Chicago suburbs, which I was a part of for a little over a decade. Why not kick things off with a bang? I'm talking about the first--and only--time I headlined a comedy show, and the ridiculously weird moment that happened halfway through my set.

I've been playing D&D and other "yes and" fantasy games for over 20 years, with roughly the same four people in our core group. Over the years, I've DM'd a few times, and I've found that, in certain situations, the core book or DM guide for rules does not work for me, so I made tweaks: homebrewing. So, I talk about these rules, including one that everyone in my group thought was a fake system called "pegs." Yes, pegs is real, and I explain the heck out of that, and other homebrewed rules like death saves, "random hell," fudging dice rolls, non-linear storytelling, improvising based on what characters do, and allowing them to kill themselves because they stole a fantasy submarine and crashed it into a merfolk city, and everyone died.

Microtransactions. In-game currencies. It's a part of the majority of Triple A games now, especially ones that have yearly releases. Is this something people should be mad about? I don't think so. Why? The price of games hasn't changed since the late-80s. It's all $60 and more. I explain the lack of inflation over the past 40 years, the amount of people that work on games now, and the pressure developers are under to put out these games.

Honestly, there's a lot of talk about inflation here. And I will eventually discuss game developer abuse and payments for them, but that episode will come later.

This was recorded in mid-2023 with comedian Matt Drufke as an improv comedy series. The trailer was released but the episode was never cut together because I felt it wasn't good by any means. After putting together this first episode, there are some good moments in here. The funny thing is that Drufke and I actually recorded two episodes, so that one will be released as well.

Anyway, check out my Substack for writing and earlier releases to these special episodes:

Upon coming back to the Meta-owned social media stive, NYT posted, "👋 Threads, we’re back. We did not deactivate our account, and are working to understand what happened here."

The response was pretty funny and completely fair. For this very brief episode, I'm reading a few comments to the Times. This isn't a highly-curated list, but it will be the next time this happens. This is a trial run of this format, and it will change if I keep doing it. Anyway, enjoy.

Since then, you have not been able to download it, so this is a new/old episode.

Xalavier Nelson Jr. and I met when I interviewed him while I worked at Meow Wolf—as he has an incredible game called Dreamfather Loves You in Meow Wolf’s Grapevine location. Nelson is the Creative Director at Strange Scaffold, with the company’s most recent release being El Paso, Elsewhere. He’s worked on over 80 games in his career, which confuses me as to why he’d want to be on this show. Regardless, Nelson is a great person who has already accomplished so much in so little time.

Now, he makes toys like "Me Trying To Fix Something But Injuring Myself in the Process While Also Making the Problem Worse: The Action Figure" or "The Weirdo At A Party Wearing a F***ing Vest."

This week, we discuss his company, his favorite food-based video games, and why some weird woman yelled about his food without ever having tasting it.

]]>What is baking? That's a silly question. You know what baking is. This week, Wyatt Sinclair comes on the show to talk about baking things and sending them to people. I met Wyatt on BlueSky, and he seemed pretty cool, so why not talk to him? This week, we discuss his company, his favorite food-based video games, and why some weird woman yelled about his food without ever having tasting it.

Casual Yelling go an early copy of the game for review. Instead of trying to review the entire game, which feels impossible with the amount of time I had to do it, I played just Showcase Mode. There are some ups and downs for the Showcase Mode, focusing on 40 Years of Wrestlemania, but it's mainly "ups." This week, I go in-depth into Showcase Mode, and discuss some of the mechanics and other things I got to dig into while playing the game.

He was asked what he would like for breakfast. Jackson yelled, "Breakfast Lasagna." This led to a conversation between the six of us playing: What is Breakfast Lasagna?

With that thought in mind, I decided to ask my guests the same question. This first episode of Breakfast Lasagna is completely free. However, subsequent episodes will be available on my Patreon in video format. If you like this episode, subscribe to my Patreon for more Breakfast Lasagna episodes.

When I was in film school, a band called Cealed Kasket found me on MySpace. After going to a couple of shows, I became obsessed with the pageantry, costumes, over-the-top stage show, and fake blood. I became the band’s videographer, and eventually, I became a character who was part of the mythos and stage show. Reunited after almost 10 years, I speak with Josh Shenk, the singer of the band under the guise of “Mortal Death,” and we discuss what the band was, why they made people in the audience wear crowns, and what it’s like to be in character all the time—even if you’re being invited to judge a battle of the bands and show up with a giant broadsword and a bunch of knights. There’s also a lot of talk about making bizarre video fliers for shows and everyone coming together to make a music video that completely rips off another music video.
