Mon, 28 April 2008 Hey folks... We've been thinking about new ways to get the word out about our show and let you show us off to all your friends, co-workers, relations, enemies and small children. The easiest way might just be a really kickin' t-shirt! I've got a basic mock-up ready and you can check out the front, the back and also the design we're using, courtesy of Nikki, one of our loyal listeners. So, tell me. You willing to buy an HGP t-shirt? If we get enough responses, we'll make them and put them up for sale. If nothing else, we're going to make these for ourselves to wear at conventions like Origins, GenCon, ChattaCon and any others we end up at. Category: General News -- posted at: 2:27 PM Comments[1] |

Wed, 9 April 2008 Hey folks... We had a great guest lined up for an interview this week about D&D 4th Edition until the dreaded NDA reared it's ugly head. We hear that the NDA will be featured in the new Monster Manual along with classic monsters Bloodsucking Lawyer and the evil Can't Take a Joke. So, we've postponed the interview until our Worldwide D&D Day Special Episode coming up on June 7th. D&D 4th Ed premieres on the 6th of June and we'll have some quick feedback as well as that interview. On the 7th, we'll all be at Dr. No's Comics and Games playing the new D&D and recording our session. If you're in the Atlanta area that weekend and want to come hang out, we'll see you there!

Tauren Marines in Starcraft II! Hello Kitty Online brings you to...The Island LoTR Online - The Battle of Amon-Hen Category: General News -- posted at: 1:41 PM Comments[0] |
Sun, 23 March 2008 Just a quick heads-up. We got Episode #23 recorded and then realized that we picked too broad a subject and didn't do it real justice. We've got a much better plan for the re-do and we'll get it up this week. Category: General News -- posted at: 6:45 PM Comments[1] |
