No More Whoppers

Desperate for post-Homeland Week content, Alex looks for help in the one friend that has carried him so far for so long now -- his Nintendo 3DS! Please enjoy a short session of Al putzing around in the Japanese version of Animal Crossing: New Leaf, complete with the goofy voices you've come to love.

Our yearly journey ends with this fourth episode. Our duo talks the latest old games they played, the dinner they went to, bits on travel anxiety and 7-Eleven (natch), and a bountiful bundle of new Facebook Likes. See you for more regular NoMoWo soon! This podcast will soon wipe out 93% of the world's population.

In our penultimate installment, Alex and Ray get deep into the video game talk (well, for this show) by describing the beat-em-ups they've been playing, as well as talk about shower amnesia, LINE, nose holes, and in classic fashion, Ray corrects Alex on something he didn't even say. This podcast may impair your ability to drive a car or operate machinery.

We tumble into Tuesday with a new report of what we did the past day (not much!), what we ate (junk!), and where we're going (nowhere!). Plus, another quick round of The Balcony - that's our new short name for it. This podcast will soon meet its maker.

The second edition of Homeland Week (formerly Arguefest) begins! As is tradition, Alex gives us tales of his arrival to the US, including insane shirts, reverse culture shock, interesting movies, and more! Plus, Facebook Likes return, and a special one-sided round of The Balcony is Closed! This podcast may be used as a flotation device.

In the mix in 66: Ray tells off the neighbor as best he can; get ready for Homeland Week II!; reports from the Seattle Retro Gaming Expo and the awful potential bar site; Alex attempts to entertain a seminar crowd; we take a long moment to discuss Al's demons (or heading them off); the rebirth of our alma mater, and another quite eventless round of The Balcony is Closed. This podcast has variable depths for easy shipping.

We're 65 and primed to retire! Alex crashes and burns at a pub quiz; Ray's sunsets seemingly Sisyphean SCROLL shipping; our new segment "Sh*t My Alex Says"; helping out at the international school; the new Japanese busses are in!; further wedding blunders, and the Balcony is Short! Forgive this podcast O Lord, it knows not what it does.

64 bits! Of conversation! The next generation of No More Whoppers episodes touches on Kickstarter fulfillment; old game magazines; how not to use IC payment cards in Japan; World Warzes; Final Fraioli Five; and more of the comedy of errors we call The Balcony is Closed. This podcast is free with any large drink purchase.
