Werewolf Movies - Episode 296 - 10/29/2026
Werewolf movies (over 30 of them, from 1913 through now) with my favorite Curmudgeonly Movie Buff Chris Holmes, and Levi Combs of Planet X Games. Some werewolf history and lore (do you know where the silver bullets and full moon lore came from?). What is the strangest way to become a werewolf (and is it a fetish)? What was the first werewolf movie? Which werewolf does Shane think looks like an annoyed innkeeper? (hint: it's a Hammer flick) That one flick where the producer said we're not making this movie without some dirty hippies!! Werewolves sure do love long-sleeve shirts. Do werewolf movies have the lowest ratio of good movies to total movies made compared to other monster types? Levi definitely has a favorite werewolf transformation scene. Shane's pick for the most unfair werewolf fight from the human's perspective. Levi loves him the scene in The Wolfman where Benicio del Toro wolfs out in the hospital operating theater. Hot Tip: you can be blind and still bring the stank on a werewolf. Did you know Uncle Rico played not one but two different werewolves in two different 80s movies? Shane awards a prize for the most unexpected werewolf movie title. What do donuts have to do with the Crawl For The Cure? SUPER SPECIAL BONUS!! Levi howls like a werewolf at least three times.

Green Lantern & Lanterns TV Show - Episode 295 - 9/30/2026
Shane and fellow GL fan Bill Brackeen geek out on Green Lantern and the Lanterns TV show. Green Lantern trivia (Golden Age, Silver Age, and beyond). The two most well-known Green Lantern oaths and interesting variations. What is the real-life inspiration for the lantern concept? The many things a GL power ring can do besides make constructs. Thoughts on the Emerald Twilight arc (and some behind-the-scenes details). Remembering HEAT: Hal's Emerald Attack/Advancement Team. Guess who the Spectre is now? If you uncouple it from what they did to Hal, there are things about the Kyle Rayner storyline that Shane and Bill like. The influence of the Lensmen novels on the Silver Age Green Lantern. There's much more to Guy Gardner's history than most people realize. The vibrant richness and wonder of the Green Lantern Corps. Has Bill ever called someone a poozer? It's getting a huge response, but what do Shane and Bill think of the Lanterns TV show? Shane's main beef with Lanterns. Is Earl a nod to Hal's old alien pet Itty? The post-Millennium New Guardians series was just weird. Just what exactly is that red stuff that comes out of Red Lantern mouths? Bill has no problem guessing who Shane's favorite Red Lantern is. Out of all the superpowers in comic books, what would Shane choose? Shane and Bill both really hate what comics writer Tom King did to Adam Strange… and Bill is pretty much opposed to him in general (Tom King is involved with the Lanterns TV show). The superhero genre didn't always dominate comics. Comics are a unique medium (even down to how we mentally interact with them). Thoughts on why comic books (or at least movies and TV shows based on them) are currently so huge in pop culture. Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #295 9/30/2026 Like what you hear?

CRPG / Video Game Gabfest With Matt Barton Of Matt Chat - Episode 294 - 8/31/2026
Professor Matt Barton of Matt Chat joins Shane for a gabfest on CRPGs and other things video gamey, plus a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT. EverQuest and World of Warcraft still have players. What is Mr. T's connection to WoW, and are fools involved? A cruise through player activity stats for various MMOs, plus which MMO has (or had) the highest player base. Playing tabletop RPGs on a virtual tabletop versus in person. Shane's weekly game group has a hard time finding multiplayer video games they all agree on. Against all odds, a rhomboid is both a muscle and a geometric shape. The age-old question of what is a CRPG? Shane thinks Baldurs Gate 3 is the best adaptation of the tabletop experience ever in a CRPG. What does rat milk taste like, and is it good for the hair? The Army is giving time off to…. play a video game?? (What amazing game could this be??) MMO shooters for the glory of the state. Matt is very impressed with Fallout: New California. The legal ins and outs of game mods. Classic Ultima Online (multiplayer classic Ultima, not the Ultima Online MMORPG). The "1,000 Good Fans" theory. Shane and Matt used to play MUDs. Never cast invisibility on the fountain. Matt loves smashing rats, and Shane loves driving around in the Mako and blasting the crap out of stuff in Mass Effect. KOTOR essentially runs the D&D D20 system under the hood. Creators and companies becoming victims of their own success. Shane pre-ordered Star Wars Zero company. And of course the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT and more! Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #294 8/31/2026 Like what you hear?

Palace of the Vampire Queen: The First Ever D&D Module with Pacesetter Games - Episode 293 - 7/31/2026
Bill Barsh of Pacesetter Games holds forth on Pacesetter Games updates and the 50th Anniversary of Palace of the Vampire Queen, the first module ever published for Dungeons & Dragons. Palace of the Vampire Queen isn't just the first published D&D module; it's also the first published megadungeon. What are Pacesetter's plans for the 50th anniversary of Palace of the Vampire Queen? (hint: they're cool). Shane's inner 13-year-old asks the obligatory question that a 13-year-old would ask about the Vampire Queen. Bill gives his definitive answer on whether the Vampire Queen would own Strahd. OTHER COOL STUFF IN THIS EPISODE: Bill's market view is that people are playing a lot of 5E but aren't buying a lot of new 5E product. Bill predicts the timeframe for the new version of D&D to come out. A surprising amount of B/X D&D is being played vs "Red Box" and BECMI at cons. The third edition of the BX RPG from Pacesetter is unleashing. Dungeon X is coming… Dungeon X is taking the best of D&D from the last 50 years and molding it into a new game. Choose-Your-Own-Path Stories are a new choice on the market. Solo adventures (one play only, not a duo between DM and player) definitely have a place in the hobby. Pacesetter runs one of the longest-running consecutive D&D tournament series at cons. There was a time when TSR thought publishing adventure modules was a terrible idea with no market. Let's be real, OD&D is super important to the hobby, but it's not the most organized and readable set of rules. What game does Shane declare as THE "D&D" success story of the past couple of years?

Video Game Dev Johnny Wood-Brooks and No One Left To Die - Episode 292 - 6/27/2026
Video game developer Johnny Wood-Brooks discusses his career and No One Left To Die, his new quirky retro indie video game. An update on his Classic Ultima Online project. An overview of his 20+ year career in video games, including Midway, Turbine, Standing Stone, and ZeniMax. How he got into the industry (and what method he used to "cheat"). What programming language is still surprisingly dominant in video game development? The video game industry can be a tough biz. Johnny has been pleasantly surprised by the Godot game engine's capacity for rapid game development. Multiplayer is still surprisingly hard to implement in games after all of this time. The process and challenges of getting your game on Steam (Johnny says the easy part was making the game!). The 8-bit / chiptune soundtrack for No One Left To Die is by Matthew Lister aka Cobra Commander. Shane compares his podcasting approach to Ed Wood.

Frankenstein Movies - Episode 291 - 5/30/2026
Fellow movie buffs Chris Holmes and Stephen Clements join for an electrifying ambulation through the gothic corridors of over 30 Frankenstein movies, past and present. Chris and Shane disagree on the merits and content of the original Frankenstein novel. Shane has thoughts on spoilers and people expecting them to apply forever. There's Iconic, and then there's iconic. What Frankenstein movie was so bad that Stephen wished his heart would have stopped while watching it, and he begs all of humanity never to watch it? For you Mage: The Ascension fans out there, Dr. Frankenstein was a Son of Ether (and so were the Ghostbusters). Do Frankenstein movies play into our fear of being eaten? Stephen manages to invoke the old military urban legend of the Ether Bunny. Chris will sit through every second of a putrid, horrible movie that he despises at least twice. Chris saw a movie in the theater using Smell-O-Vision… in 2025. Stephen has super-strong (like, super-strong) opinions about Poor Things. Did we mention that Stephen has super-strong opinions about Poor Things? Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #290 - 5/30/2026 Like what you hear?

Ken St. Andre Part 2 - Episode 290 - 4/30/2026
The second of two interviews with game designer Ken St. Andre, this time focusing on his video game design history (see part one for discussion around his tabletop RPG design). Games discussed in this episode: Tunnels & Trolls: Crusaders of Khazan, Adventure Construction Set, Wasteland (without which there would be no Fallout), and Wasteland 2. Ken's favorite Christopher Reeve Superman movie. One of Shane's pet peeves with current superhero comic book stories (especially DC). The origins of storytelling. Did the Empire from Star Wars have a good side? What happened when Ken and Roberta Williams of Sierra On-Line offered Ken a job? What two classic 80s action flicks helped inspire Wasteland (one is sort of obvious, one might not be), and what does Daffy Duck have to do with it all? What does the Mercenaries, Spies and Private Eyes RPG have to do with Tunnels & Trolls, and what do they both have to do with Wasteland? Ken's thoughts on being involved with Wasteland 2. Ken's never-released superhero game version of Tunnels & Trolls called Power Trip. The most important rule in Tunnels & Trolls (as opposed to the most important principle). Watch out for snollygosters. Ken's thoughts on power scale in superhero RPGs (think Batman and Superman in the same fight). Q&A with Ken based on questions submitted by Matt Barton of Matt Chat. Ken's advice for game designers. What would Ken have done differently in his career? Cockroach population analysis. How Ken made it into the Hall of Fame.

John M. Ford with Victor Raymond - Episode 289 - 3/30/2026
The one and only, amazing, science fiction and fantasy writer, game designer, and poet, John M. Ford (aka "Mike") with Dr. Victor Raymond. A very quick Tékumel update. John M. Ford won a prestigious award for a Christmas card. In addition to his novel writing, he also wrote for RPGs, including Traveller, GURPS, Star Trek, Paranoia, and Ghostbusters. Paranoia is a joyful HOOT. John M. Ford's take on Klingons (including linguistics) is excellent and sublime, and it's a shame it's not Star Trek canon. "Realistic" space combat in science fiction. Reading a John M. Ford novel is a very rewarding exercise in inference. Recommendations on where to start in his bibliography. A brief digression into Harlan Ellison. Sweet memories of Mike (and Darklands, too). Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #289 - 3/30/2026 Like what you hear?
