Just Keep ‘Casting – Episode 87

In this, the Grills Second Anniversary Episode, we were joined by @williedills to celebrate and discuss all things podcasting along with the customary news items and updates on our geeky lives.

LARPing the Lurkers with Games – Episode 86

When your plan is a no-go – Episode 85

In this episode the Grills had planned to talk about YouTube “stars”. Then the shooting happened right before recording.
So, to be sensitive, we bailed on that topic and did the rest of our news and banter. We did touch a bit on “mass shootings” and such in place of our main topic.

Our best wishes go out to YouTube and all affected by that tragic event.
