The Boy Howdy Podcast

Hey guys! We’re firing up the ol’ podcast pipeline to check in with y’alls and gab about all the stuff we’ve watched, played or listened to in 2017.

Also, a very sincere “thank you” to anyone who has kept up with us over the course of this insane past year and/or requested this episode. [...]

And here at the end of all things is the final episode of The Boy Howdy Podcast. This last time out, we’re mostly just talking about Christmas, warmth and friendship, with a little Final Fantasy XV, Yuri on Ice, Christmas Vacation and MST3K Santa Claus thrown in.

We’ve survived Portland’s first (and only?) snowfall of the season to yak at you beautiful people about the Westworld S1 finale (spoilers!), The Last Guardian, Yuri on Ice, Six Wives with Lucy Worsely, Voltron, Forgotten Weapons, Rudolph, Frosty and Mary Poppins.

Life has conspired to keep any of us from ingesting much new pop culture this week, but we still manage to check in with out thoughts about 1994’s Little Women, Final Fantasy XV, the improv troupe dramedy Don’t Think Twice and more gushing about Supergirl and Dishonored 2.

Anne was knocked unconscious this week by the Sombra character reveal for Overwatch, so in lieu of talking this week, Bill cooked up a little November-y music mix tape for y’all.

Welcome to the winding down of the year, everybody.

Happy Halloween everybody! This week, we’re gabbing about Crimson Peak (again) and What We Do In The Shadows, along with the new Art of Atari book, Overwatch Halloween skins, Bill’s recent purchase of a 4K TV and the last Great British Bake-Off finale.

Anne and Foley are away this week, so we’ve got another hour of George Burns & Gracie Allen and 50’s sci-fi radio X-Minus One to tide us over.

Intro: Autumn in New York – Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong
