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.

WELCOME, BELOVED LISTENERS, TO THE LEFT TRIGGER RIGHT TRIGGER COMEDY HOUR. Tonight's very special episode features all an all star cast of comedic players, here to tickle your funny bone on the topic of "Comedy." Master of Ceremonies Dave immediately supplants the regular host in making this the funniest episode of LTRT on this particular topic. Contact juggler Giovanni warms up the crowd with this jokes about scooters (and maybe dead children? It's hard to say). Infamous magician's assistant Colin discusses what it was like in the secret diablo basement. World renowned clown impersonator Greg brings his tragic-comedic stylings to the table in order to totally rag on NPR. What do you think, everyone? 

Make sure to tell us exactly how many times you laughed during this episode over on our Facebook and Twitter. Feel free to work on your tight five in the comments for our YouTube Channel. Finally, don't forget to tip your waiters by leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts. We'd really appreciate it.
