Obsessive Comics Disorder | A Geek Comedy Podcast: Recent Episodes
Chris Renshaw
Obsessive Comics Disorder stars Chris and his best friend Philip - two crazy geeks that have done everything from going to comic book conventions to hosting Nerf gun wars in their front yards. Each week, they sit down and joke about all the geeky things that they are into - from Comics to Board Games, Movies, TV, and everything else in between.
We have arrived at the last episode of our The End of the World: Zombie Apocalypse campaign! In this episode, we find out the fate of our heroes as they discover more about the house they are staying in before making a last ditch effort towards getting home. Come back next week to hear what the Dirtbags thought of this RPG system and we kick off our next big campaign: Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition!
This campaign is part of a series looking at The End of the World: Zombie Apocalypse RPG system by Fantasy Flight Games. You can get a copy of the Rulebook while helping out The Dirtbags of Holding by clicking here.

Last time on The Dirtbags of Holding: our heroes had their first real encounter with the undead! It was an experience that some would say felt flat....against the pavement.

Last time on The Dirtbags of Holding: Our heroes were entertaining themselves at GenCon when things started to go weird. Between all of the police, streaming, and pissed off crowds, the group managed to get back to their hotel room in one piece (but didn't get the Mountain Dew!). Now, as we move into Day 2, our heroes have some decisions to make...

Welcome to The Dirtbags of Holding! This is a podcast where my friends and I record our "interesting" adventures playing through different Role Playing Games. Join Philip, Chris, Cory, Jimmy and I as we broaden our gaming horizons and avoid stabbing each other in the process. For our "Pilot" season, we will be playing The End of the World: Zombie Apocalypse RPG by Fantasy Flight Game. In this episode, the players create their characters (aka themselves) prior to jumping into the adventure (some better than others....).

We've got Apple announcements, Pokemon to catch in our future, and I kinda want to play X-wing Miniatures again. Plus, we stomp on a few crappy kickstarters and come up with a few bad ones ourselves. All of this and more this week!

I'm posting this on both the Boards & Swords and the OCD feeds since it has been so long since I last podcasted. I've barely had a chance to breathe, let alone play some board games but in the midst of GenCon packing I got a few moments to sit down and record an episode for you guys! Listen as I talk about my experiences playing the Firefly board game, what I'm looking forward to playing at GenCon, and walking Chloe through her first tabletop RPG with the Pathfinder Beginner's Box!
Come find me at GenCon! I'll be working the Dice Tower booth (#3030) from 11-12 on Friday, and I hope to see you guys there!

Heads up: Technical issues are afoot in this episode! Due to circumstances explained at the top of the show, we had to move the studio and now my equipment is acting all wonky (by the way, if you are an audio expert and can tell me whats going on, email me). That aside, we've got Kickstarters to talk about, jokes to be made, and GenCon is quickly approaching!

Just warning you guys off the top of the show: I feel as if this is one of the best shows we've produced yet. We joke about some twisted Florda man's sense of humor, some weird relations with video games, and my inevitable Apple Watch. Speaking of watches, send us your funniest #WorstWatchApps.

I've been teasing for weeks, but I was finally all set to reveal the new studio layout I've been working on! Didn't exactly go according to plan, but if you check out the video you can get a feel for what it looks like. We talk about what inspired the change, what this means to the show, making a fortune off of stolen LEGO bricks, and of course a Superfight!

Doctor Doom turns out to have faked his degree, somehow the internet broke when we landed on a comet (I'm fuzzy on the details), and some small insignificant video game called World of Warcraft released its latest expansion.

Nobody else here but me this week. After losing the recording last week, and losing a cohost this week (stupid football!), I decided to sit down and record a small bit for you guys talking about a few different things. Come back next week for a full episode (assuming my cohost hasn't been contaminated by this "sports watching" fad).

We're back from Baltimore Comic Con! We've got lots of stories and things to talk about - especially since the interviews we recorded while at the show got lost! But it's okay, we still talk about the people we talked to and the things we saw (or didn't want to see). Not to mention we finish off the show with a new Letter from a Douchebag Editor! Runners -

We are back! Pardon our mess as my studio flooded last month and we are finally to the point where we can record again. We slowly figure out what this podcasting thing is again, and try out a couple of new things (I try telling jokes, for instance). In addition to that, with Gen Con this past weekend we take some time to talk about some new games that we are interested in.

Lab Accident Releases Giant Cat!
A LexCorp subsidiary in Tokyo, Japan was experimenting with new types of Kryptonite and its effects on animal life, but the company bit off more than it can chew when one of its test kittens grew to 30 stories tall! The cat initally ran amok, causing serious damage to skyscrapers as it scratched I ts claws on them. Since then, the Tokyo police have been able to keep the animal contained by shining the Japanese Bat-signal on the ground to distract it.
UPDATE: LexCorp is touting that the incident was not an accident and was planned in part with YouTube to promote Lex Luthor's new web series. A spokesman for LexCorp stated: "Hey, people love cats, and Lex Luthor is a man who gives the people what they want, and much more."

Not our best effort this week, as my internet couldn't decide if it wanted to work or not, which meant that we were recording without show notes, without a live chatroom (really trying for one next week), and even without a way to check to see that we weren't making stuff up. Enjoy!
Come watch us (attempt to) record live! Sundays at 7pm EDT at http://ocdcast.com/live !
) This week, I tried to do a couple of different things in an effort to improve the show. Some of them didn't pan out the way that I had hoped so standby as I'll be working on them for the future. What we do have on this episode is a special guest! Mark from the RambleOn podcast joins us to talk Diablo, board games, and who would win in a fight: Batman vs the entire Green Lantern Corps!
We're back! Between work travel, sickness, and redoing the studio, its been a busy month...or two. We make up for it though, with some new segments, new bumpers, and even a new background track or so. Send us some feedback on what you like!

You may have seen it elsewhere, but in November I've set myself of goal of updating this site at least once a day. So, to help me with that, I've decided to start a "mini-cast" to go in the OCD podcast feed called "Quick Fix" - short reviews of individual comic issues where I can give you my thoughts and opinions on what comics I am reading. Today, its Damian: Son of Batman #1 by Andy Kubert.
Summary: When a tragic explosion kills Batman, his son and current Robin, Damian Wayne, is left to pick up the pieces and continue Batman's mission - but first can he get over his own guilt?

That's right - Philip and I just returned from seeing Ender's Game, now sit back and listen to us talk about what our thoughts are on the movie. Also, a couple of Halloween stories, and Philip wonders what role Sean Connery could play in a comic book movie.

((I realize the past few episodes have had some funky volume issues on the audio - trying to work them out slowly))
In case you didn't know, Blizzard is working on an online collectible card game based on World of Warcraft called Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft. Well, this past week Philip and I both got into the closed beta and had a chance to try out the game for ourselves. In addition, we have a few comics to discuss, more X-wing talk, and Diablo III? All that and more this week!

That's right, nothing's better than watching a rocket powered Mini Cooper launch through a goal post (video below). After I share this with Philip, we move into talking about the X-Wing miniatures game that he's been learning recently, followed by a LOT of comic talk (Larfleeze, Trinity War, Forever Evil).

Philip's sick this week, and we will be out of town next week, so instead of going a month or so without a podcast, I pulled an audible and asked Chloe if she wanted to be on the podcast. Hear her point of view on Baltimore Comic Con, Dave & Busters, and the Magic Prerelease that we did this past weekend.
If you like this episode, check out the podcast Chloe & I do (sometimes) called "The Adventures of Chloe".

That's right everyone! We're changing things up yet again. Over the past few weeks, I've been really thinking about where to go with Relative Dimensions and what to do with the show. Finally, this weekend I realized that the podcast that I wanted to do most is the one I was really already starting to do - a podcast with my best friend Philip about all the geeky obsessions we have. Comic books, games (board/card games and video games), movies, TV, etc. - which is everything that I talk about on this site as well. So why do I need to have a different podcast with a different name to talk about all of the same things - why not have the podcast and the website be the same and talk about the same things. So thus, we are bringing back the "Obsessive Comics Disorder" name and slapping it onto the Relative Dimensions feed. The old OCD podcast feed will fade away (the links do not work anyways) and those that are subscribed to the original Relative Dimensions feed will not have to do anything but watch as it transitions into the new OCD podcast feed.
We've also got a new email! You can send stuff to us at feedback@ocdcast.com now!
In this podcast - Philip and I talk about our recent trip to Baltimore Comic Con this past weekend and all the fun that ensued. Did you go? Send us your thoughts and opinions.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know that I'm going to be burying my head in a bunch of work for the rest of the month and unable to publish any blog posts/videos/or podcasts. But, before I did, I wanted to put out something for you guys to check out while I'm busy. Recently, I've become a much bigger fan of TableTop gaming, specifically board games and card games. Ever since, I've had this big desire to put out a podcast where I can talk about these things, but I wasn't able to figure out how I wanted to do it.
Until Now.
What you've got before you now, is a very rough idea of what I want to do for this podcast. I don't have any titles or album art yet, so this is just a barebones pilot episode for me to get some feedback from you guys on how to create this podcast.
In this episode - I introduce myself and give a brief history of my gaming experiences, talk a bit about what I want to do on this podcast, and then go into a review of Wizard of the Coast's latest D&D reprint: the 3.5 Rule Supplement "Magic Item Compendium".
Question of the Week - A question that I'd like answered by you guys and will read responses on my next episodes (for now, email them to chris@ocdcast.com, or comment on this episode).
All sorts of fun talk in this episode - we give our thoughts on Magic 2014, along with some other Magic talk, I tried getting Chloe into Yu-Gi-Oh, and Yo-yos?? You'll just have to listen to see what we're talking about!

It's a bit of a long show this week, but Philip and I have been chomping at the bit to try out Android: Netrunner. It's a two player cyber-punk card game developed by the same person who created Magic: The Gathering. So sit back and enjoy us fumbling over ourselves and trying to figure out this game.
That's right - we thought the show we getting kind of stale just talking about games, so we took our current format and threw it out the window! If you've been listening since the beginning I intended Relative Dimensions to be a general "Geek Talk Radio" type show, and that's the style that we are going back to. We are currently coming up with new ideas for the show, so if you've got an idea then send it to us!

Don't be too impressed though, as its a short show - not that much news worth talking about this week, plus Chris' computer did not want to capture any video so the second half of the show that was supposed to be dedicated to showing off Star Trek Online was thrown out. We'll get the kinks worked out though.

It's the new year everyone, and we've FINALLY brought you a new episode of Relative Dimensions. Between awful audio problems and Philip dying of the plague, I thought we'd never get a podcast episode out. To ease ourselves back into a regular schedule, we do some Halo 4 multiplayer (captured from my Xbox thanks to my new Elgato Game Capture HD). We've got some great plans for 2013 and ways of improving the show, so if you've got a suggestion, PLEASE let us know!

Yeah that's right, Philip didn't know how you get to the Top Secret Area, so Chris has to correct this error. Not just that, but Philip went crazy on the Steam sale, Chris fell in love with his 3DS again, and we've got LOTS of news!
What we've been playing
Chris - Halo 4, Dust 514, 3DS Games

Intro/Outro Music - "L3" by Skyhawk on his album "Function"
Not a whole lot of news this week, so we decided that a playthrough was in order! Now that Philip is level 90 in WoW, we can run some scenarios (instanced group questing) and so after a little bit of chatting we jump into a couple of scenarios. Watch/listen as I die (many many times), Philip tries to figure out what it going on, and more in this episode.

Happy Thanksgiving to those that live in the US! It's back to a more "normal" episode as we discuss some of the big news stories of recent. Not to mention Chris got to try out some new games and Philip unsubscribed from Star Trek Online! GASP!
What we've been playing
Chris - Halo 4, Mechwarrior Online, Guild Wars 2
Philip - STO season 7

I didn't want to go another 3 weeks without an episode, so Philip and I decided to have a very special episode of Relative Dimensions this week - as you see our first reactions to Halo 4! Apologies up front for the quality of the video, I'll try my best to improve these console playbacks over time.

A shorter episode this week - bare with us as we are trying to improve the show. Send us your feedback and help us out by telling us what you did/didn't enjoy!

Intro/Outro Music "L3" by Skyhawk on his album "Function"
This week we announce a few changes to the show, which are that: A) We are no longer recording the show live. It is too much of a strain on my internet and I'm not happy with the quality that results from it. B) Instead of recording a show and an aftershow each week, we will just record the main show each week and then once or twice a month have a show where we can play some games/check out something new.
With that, listen to us ramble about the new World of Warcraft expansion, and watch me suck really bad at the new Battle Pets system.

Intro/Outro Music: "L3" by Skyhawk on his album "Function"
Hey, we're back again! This time, with far less bugs and issues, and there is even video! Philip and I talk about our anticipation for the new WoW expansion, why I didn't play WoW this past weekend, and we are reminded of those other MMO's that we have not played in awhile (but we want to!).
