This Is Rad!
Our first guest ever returns to the show. After entirely too long, Kyle and Matthew welcome Dan Telfer (@dantelfer) to the show. It's been almost 10 years since we recorded that episode and that is entirely too long. We celebrate his return by talking about The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Dan and Mattthew have put some solid time into the game. Kyle is broke but enthusiastic to listen to the boys describe this incredibly well crafted video game. They also chat design in Zelda and coin the term “dumpsterface”... Check out Dan's RPG Company Grim and Whimsy @grimandwhimsy...

info_outlineThis week on the show, Kyle and Matthew welcome comedian and radio DJ Jake Dill. Jake is one of Kyle's longest running friends in comedy and this episode is the first time Kyle has ever heard him talk about his love of Magic: The Gathering. He explains his experiences in the world of Magic, along with his story of how he got into the game and what it is about the game that keeps him coming back. Laura pops in to share her experiences and her and Jake throw down as Matt and Kyle politely have no idea what is happening. This one is super fun and feels like a real celebration of the long running collectable card game.
