theamazingsomething
A bunch of nerds talking about nerdy things. Get in on it! Disclaimer The Spectacular Something or Other is a free flowing conversation that sometimes discusses mature topics and language.
Ro tries an experimental side podcast where he explains the value of games after the initial hype has died down. All through the perspective of an extremely poor gamer.
Amanda, Toussaint, and Johnny argue over the Jedi/Sith dichotomy. The conclusion? Anakin is still a whiny bitch. Ro takes a back seat as the rest of the gang chats it up. We also talk Civil War, BVS, and a little bit of current events in geek news.

And then we shoot the breeze on some other stuff...

We check in with the crew, see whats up in this season of merryment. This one was a bitch to edit since we all did this through Skype. We also had to edit out the last 15 minutes due to audio issues. But as an experiment, it was fun. And if you make it to the end: I thought he said 'these,' not 'keys'. Hence the joke.
Damian gives his thoughts on the holidays and talks about how his views have changed over the years.
