Gamer Friends returns with a packed episode, and an interview with Big Nick’s IRL best friend, clingypumpkin. ”Logging On,” we went hands-on with Google’s Project Stream, aka the future, and comment on some of the funnier Soulcalibur VI character creations. We’re also disappointed in Battlefield V’s battle royale delay, Fallout 76’s beta (and bugs), CD Projekt Red’s social media team (again), and all of the misogynists on Twitch.
“These Past Two Weeks in Nerdom,” we finally finished Iron Fist and started on Daredevil. We also got word of the original Teen Titans returning, a new animated Star Trek show from Justin Roiland, and a mea culpa on Luke Cage.
Joining us in “Party Chat,” best friend of the show XXX and your Gamer Friends are all over Red Dead Redemption 2, and maybe talk a little bit about Grand Theft Auto V.
Thank you for listening! We appreciate the support. Please rate and review if you like the show and we’ll see you all in two weeks!

018: That Ninja Money
This week we are diving into Red Dead’s 100-hour work weeks, Black Ops 4, City Skylines, a new Sims expansion, Fallout 76’s stress test and praising the latest Kotaku feature on SonicFox.
We get into all things Marvel-related with Iron Fist, Luke Cage, and Daredevil...and maybe speculate on the fate of Jessica Jones. We talk about the new Glass trailer and get real black with our thoughts on the finale of Insecure, Black Panther 2 and Black Widow (according to ScarJo, that counts too). We finish the segment with the controversy surrounding the popular blerd site, Geeks of Color.
After that we’re talking about what we’re playing. The list includes...Destination 2? Oh no, Destiny 2 (sorry, it’s been a while for some of us), Halo 4, Two Dots, For(t)za 4 and Assassin’s Creed.
Thanks for listening as always and we’ll see y’all in two weeks!
Next Episode
020: The Beast Within
On this episodes of Gamer Friends, your hosts are tackling a metric ton of news (which is pretty unusual for this time of year, tbh). First up “Logging On,” we’re talking Activision’s earnings diss to Bungie, all the Nintendo Direct news, several new game launches including Sims 4: Get Famous, Fallout 76, and Hitman 2, the class action lawsuit against Riot Games, the legendary Prima Game Guides shuttering, an update to the Blizzcon drama, no Sony at #E32019, and finally, the Game Awards.
“These Past Two Weeks in Nerdom,” we have to pour one out for the big homie, Stan Lee. Then, we tackle a few news items related to his legacy, including Daredevil S3 and the upcoming Disney streaming service character shows.
Instead of “The Homescreen” this week (we’re still playing Assassin’s Creed, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Destiny: Forsaken), we’ve got a long-form interview with indie tabletop game developer Brie Sheldon (@briecs) to discuss their upcoming game, Turn. It was quite the insightful interview and one you will not want to miss!
