Left Trigger Right Trigger

Join us every other week as we convene the 'video game book club.' Each episode is structured around a topic: anything from 'Trust' to 'Robots' to 'Body Parts'. Listen in as your hosts each bring a game to the table that they think exemplifies that topic in some way. Give us a shot and remember, games are just metaphors.

SURPRISE loyal LTRT listeners! Here's a very special episode of our newest show: Fullmetal Bazinga. We hope you like it - if you do, why not go over and subscribe to that feed? There's already a piping hot new episode waiting for you to enjoy.

On with the description!

Welcome to the premiere episode of Fullmetal Bazinga: A Real Show for Humans and Other Sentient Beings. We invite you to join us every week as we seek the truth behind the cultural touchstone known as "The Big Bang Theory." 

In this episode, we break down the essential questions for the best season of CBS's most popular sitcom: What Will Marriage Be Like for Sheldon and Amy? Will Raj Ever Find Love? Does Sheldon Bang? Is Chuck Lorre Ok? 

All these questions and more are discussed in episode 01: The Conjugal Configuration. 

Keep up with the show by following us on Twitter: @FMBazinga

As always, a huge thank you to Doug Linse for creating our intro and outro themes. You can find all his music by going to douglinse.bandcamp.com

Tune in next time for episode two: The Wedding Gift Wormhole.
