We have surpassed two major milestones: ten years, and 150 episodes. It only follows logically that we should have a special off-topic episode. (But then again, how often do we actually show signs of any logic?) In this episode: you asked us, we answered. But what did you ask? You asked us STUFF. So we … Continue reading Episode 151: A Very Special Pie Factory Podcast

After an unexpected hiatus, Sean and Jim are back with a new episode. Sadly, as a side effect of said hiatus, the episode is not about our original intended topic.

Yeah, yeah, we know. “NEW EPISODE SO SOON?!?” Due to the logistical nightmare we all call life, our originally scheduled topic had to be postponed, so instead, after realizing we haven’t done an off-topic episode in a while, maybe we should change our pace for a bit, and here we are.

Just in time for Portland Retro Gaming Expo (kinda), we present episode 141! This time, instead of the usual booing from people listening, the boos we here are from the spooky creatures that come herewith and thereto and therein with two creepy-themed games.

Rumor has it that episode 141 has been released. Well, we’re here to completely dispel that rumor: it’s actually episode 140 that’s been released.
