1 RecommendationsIn this uproarious episode of Cartridge and Quest, FoodieMikeC and Average Travis are back with more hilarious nonsense. They discuss the highs and lows of setting up a Patreon (baked beans in pants, anyone?), the terror of fever dreams (lawsuits and peener monsters!), and the wild world of online gaming connections (Fortnite engagements?!). They also dive into the nostalgia of retro gaming, reminiscing about Sega Dreamcasts and the early days of online multiplayer. Plus, they announce this month's "quest" - a rewatch of the cult classic "Grandma's Boy" - and ask listeners for suggestions on what crazy quest they should embark on next. Get ready for laughs, questionable anecdotes, and a whole lot of gaming goodness.

Two guys, way too much caffeine, and a whole lotta opinions on everything nerdy! Average Trav and FoodieMikeC dive headfirst into the latest nerd news, dissect "Grandma's Boy" (spoiler: they liked it!), and give some love to local haunts like the Regent Theater. Oh, and they actually answer listener mail... like, with their voices and stuff. It's a wild ride through the minds of two self-proclaimed nerds, and you might just learn a thing or two.
