Episode 35: Cyborgs

This is a good one people. For one thing I was hyped up and full of energy. For another, I talk about cyborgs and all things robot. But instead of just nerding out (don’t worry I do that too), I...

Procreation – not always a good idea

Maybe I should re-title this post as “Why I fucking hate kids” but I suppose that may be too aggressive. I don’t necessary hate them – fear them is more along the lines. Look folks I don’t have kids:...

Episode 36: High and Marvelous

  This show needs a little backstory. I’ve been suffering from severe tooth ache since last Friday and have been on a wide variety of pain pill until yesterday. For a while I was even considering not...

The Monk

Another one for the Epic Collection. I wrote this one as a sort of part 2 to The Rogue, and honestly, I like this one a little better: It’s got a kick-ass monk in it. Can you blame me? Either way, it...
