The Lifecast

Rest in Peace, Pitbull | Ep.27

There’s no half-episode this week and we didn’t keep up with gaming news, but we did play a lot of games and do some other things.

Host/Producer: Deanna Minasian
Intro/Outro: Fluffing a Duck by Kevin MacLeod

Be excellent to each other. | Ep.26

It’s another week for limited gaming news, though we all have something to say about No Man’s Sky. Some of us are more harsh than others.

If you don’t hear your question during this episode, stay tuned! Our bonus section ran overtime… by another hour. So you’ll get a double dose of The Lifecast this week.

Audience Involvement | Ep.25

First, we discuss this week’s kinda barren newsscape. Then, we discuss questions that you’ve sent us… for the first time in The Lifecast’s short life span.

Thanks to those who sent us questions: Sydney Smith, Colin Barry, and Nick Rosaasen!
Heads up! We have a conversation about things that are hard to watch in media like games and movies starting at around 46:03 and ending at around 1:00:36.

Development Crises | Ep.24

Back again on The Lifecast this week are your regulars talking about our now-regular topic, Pokemon Go. And other things, like a follow-up to I Am Setsuna from last week.

Wanna keep up with us? We all tweet.

The Catcher | Ep.23

This week, we talk about childhood book reports, a new angle for our podcast, and of course, video games.
In case you missed it, we do publish on Wednesdays now! We figured it might help that whole gaming news angle we go for.
Slight warning: we do discuss the mechanics of being a catcher in the rye. If you’re sensitive to talk of suicide, please be aware that it comes up towards the end.

Numbers | Ep.22

This week, we discover that there are some correlations we shouldn’t make.

We also talk about some games: mainly the difference between a story-driven game and a narrative. Even though they’ve got the same meaning.

The First Rule of The Lifecast | Ep.21

It’s that you don’t talk about The Lifecast.

The second rule is that you don’t talk about kidney stones. Or pregnancy. Or UTIs.

This week we discuss more Furi, Evolve going free to play, and some other gaming-related things as we break in our brand-spankin’-new audio equipment! After we figure out how it works, that is.

Follow us and email us, too! We’d love to hear your questions.

Music: Fluffing a Duck by Kevin MacLeod

A reason for better recording equipment | Ep.19

Maybe 20 is our lucky number. Maybe then our voices won’t sound utterly compressed.

This week we discuss the games we’ve been playing and what our recommendations are for the rest of the Steam Summer Sale, which ends July 4.

Conveniently enough, we talk a little bit about a game called Furi, which comes out July 5. You can find the music played during the boss fight right here!

Who’s on this week?: Greg, Dan, Sydney, Pat, Adam, Andres, and Deanna.

The Birth of The Hotcast | Ep.18

With no real gaming-related news since E3 last week, we decide to turn to other pursuits.

Host/Producer: Deanna Minasian
Intro/Outro: Fluffing a Duck – Kevin MacLeod

E3: Boot Squeens & Teats | Ep.17

It’s not as dirty as it sounds, Pat.

We have a go at E3 news– discussion of what we liked from major press conferences, and there are even things we didn’t like. Shocking, I know.
