Episode 65 – I’m Dreaming Of A GFB Christmas

Feeling good about this one. We revisit the glory that isn’t sex in the Prius. Darryl talks about his first Turkey Day in Orlando. Dave fell into the show hole that is Hannibal. In short, the show gets off to a good start.

And somehow…it keeps rolling. Dave talks about trying to buy Assassins Creed Syndicate and Fallout 4…before succumbing to crappy download times and playing Unity. Then Dave is getting ready to go to PSX, and gets Darryl caught up with what he should expect.

Then things get awkward. Dave, for only reasons he understands, decided to role play as one of Darryl’s children. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Then he did that two more times. After that if you’re into rap music, Dave thinks you might enjoy the new Lice EP. Finally, the guys hit up a few emails before sailing away into the good night.

Episode 64 – Free Play, All Day

The guys pooped out this turd of a show right before Thanksgiving, so forgive them, their minds were elsewhere.

Dave starts by getting Darryl caught up on the snowfall he missed by deserting to Orlando. Classic Darryl, he actually misses snow!

Darryl takes command of the show with an epic retelling of his visit to Free Play Florida, where he checked out bunch of coin-op, pinball, and legacy home systems for a low, low entry fee (but not free, as the name of the show may suggest). He also tried to get Sexy talking about Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker…and that was a mistake.

The guys then talk about the massive stack of games they have on their plates, so if you like hearing people talk a lot about games they haven’t played yet this section is dedicated to you.

Finally, Dave talks about the last Divekick update before the guys answer a couple emails.

Episode 63 – Get Monked!

After last week’s disaster of a show the guys are back with a Certified Banger. Sorry about that, we’ll never have Jebailey on again.

The guys start with Darryl getting sexy and Dave getting hype. Then Dave goes into an extended retelling of his Extra Life stream for Giant Bomb, and boy, if you’re super into Until Dawn you’re in luck. Turns out that game is amazing, and they guys talk at length about it (they veer briefly into spoilerville, but you can avoid that easily enough with the timestamps below). Until Dawn is currently in the driver’s seat for GOTY.

The show gets rounded out by talking about Dave’s trip to Oculus, and friend of the show Liz sends in a quality email.

Episode 62 – Darryl Interviews Alex Jebailey

With Dave out of town, Darryl is left with few options and is forced to interview Alex Jebailey, Community Manager for Iron Galaxy and the man behind the fighting game tournament series Community Effort Orlando.

Want to know how Alex got started at IG? Want to hear all about how he won the Blockbuster Videogame Championship? No? Perhaps you’re curious how Alex got so good at fighting games? Not that either? Do you want to hear about how he met Adam “Keits” Heart, and got added as a character in Divekick? Boy…tough crowd. Well, at one point he awkwardly forces the conversation onto how he gets stalked a lot by ex-girlfriends (one is forced to assume this was a misguided attempt to relate how good he is with women) and it made me cringe, you’ll want to hear that for sure.

Episode 61 – It’s Beat Time!

Dave and Darryl are joined once again in person. However due to real life shenanigans the show notes are lacking… for now.

Episode 59 – Getting the Lighting Right

This edition of Team GFB Radio starts off with a fire remix of the OG theme from Nate! Good job by you Nate.

The guys get caught up on Darryl’s Disney exploits, some Destiny shenanigans, and go over Dave’s calendar shoot before diving into a bunch of emails. Have you ever been curious about what lawyers in the Video Game industry do? Or, maybe, you want to know more about St. George Utah? No? You don’t give a shit about any of that? Well do you want to know how the US Air Force ended up selling a bunch old Midway games? If yes to this, we actually have no clue, so track down the answer and hit us up. The last two emails are travel related! The guys plan a vacation for someone visiting America for the first time, and someone hitting up Chicago wants the deets on the best affordable eats in the city.

Episode 58 – Team GFB Welcomes John Vignocchi

Darryl and Dave welcome Disney Infinity’s mouthpiece, John Vignocchi, to the show. Dave and JV talk a lot about their Midway days, and digress into a brief discussion regarding doxxing (purported) dear friends.

Outside of that stuff, Dave finishes up the Asia trip, and Dave and Darryl talk about their night out on the town in Orlando.

Episode 57 – Together Again

Darryl and Dave are reunited for this episode, and the guys lay down a Certified Banger. It’s been awhile since the guys talked, so please bear with them as they spend the first five minutes of the show getting caught up on real life stuff.

Have you heard about the TeamGFB Subreddit? It’s jumping off and you should #jointheconversation. Head on over and cast your vote for the most essential episodes of Team GFB Radio.

After all that the episode starts proper, and the guys talk Orlando bars and restaurants, Star Wars Battlefield, Halo 5, Dave gives up a story about his and Adam Boyes’ early days at Midway, and then Dave resumes his recap of the Asia trip. He covers Kuala Lumpur, and most of Osaka, but somehow there’s still more Asia stories to tell. Tune into Episode 58 next week for the stunning conclusion.

Episode 56 – The Jet Lag is Real

This was supposed to be a travel-heavy episode, but it turned into Dave and Darryl getting caught up in real-time. Darryl talked about his first Disney Adventure as a local, Darryl started to play Destiny (!), Dave’s Prius is on its last leg, and Dave provides his Stack Rank of all the Fast and Furious movies (5, 1, 4, 7, 2, 6, 3).

Finally, Dave picks up discussing his trip through SE Asia from two episodes ago with his last night in Tokyo, and the F1 weekend in Singapore. Tune in next week for the Kuala Lumpur, Osaka, and Kyoto stories I guess, because we ran out of time.
