Leisure:Video Games
It’s a special midnight release of our Halloween episode! The amazing Techtic (tinkerer extraordinaire) from the Online Warriors Podcast joins Ben this week to discuss horror! Creepy… maybe, but certainly an appropriate theme for this time of year. We wish Norah a Happy Birthday by starting with “Questions from my Aunt!” Techtic gets freaked out by the concept of abduction but will always protect his dog! The conversation then moves on to their favorite horror movies. Then they “wrap up” the show talking about horror in video games and virtual reality.
