The Office Drones: Episode Sacramento (LIVE At Origins Game Fair)

Last weekend, we had the opportunity to do a live show of our Patreon-exclusive D&D show, The Office Drones, to a very open-minded audience at Origins Game Fair here in Columbus, OH. It was a super good time and everyone there was really cool with playing in the weird space of a side episode based on a show that's been running for 3+ years on a closed Patreon feed they'd never heard of owned and operated by a podcast they'd also never heard of.

This is the recording of that episode, and it was a BLAST. We created all new characters that live in the extended Office Drones universe, but rest assured no prior knowledge is necessary to enjoy this one-off episode.

If you like this and want to experience more of the story of The Office Drones, go back and check out some of the supercut episodes we've uploaded to the free feed (Book 1: https://open.spotify.com/episode/17MTbQNZlJwUQJu0Fy1lVY?si=844a760ad62f402d; Book 2: https://open.spotify.com/episode/48LEjg152yvD7FKQ0bhIFq?si=0603a9edefda4166).

Episode 124: With Great Ptower Comes Great Resptonsibility

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse just hit theaters a few weeks ago and it's safe to say this is Sony's best Marvel movie since 2018's Into the Spider-Verse. Well the execs over at Sony are ready to ride the Spider Train all the way to moneyville! They've reached out to DT!HQ for help crafting a new, Spiderman-based, genre-inspired cinematic universe. That's why this week, we're digging into Wikipedia to find the wildest Spiders Men from across the Marvel Universe and assigning them a matching film genre!

Matt is here to play fast and loose with spiders, men and punctuation. Andrew tells the story of a True American Hero (TM) as only a Horse Movie (TM) can. Todd reminds us all of the trauma we suffered at the hands of We're Back! A Dinosaur Story.

FLAVOR TEXT: Bloodborne

The pale moon rises on Yharnam, a Victorian England-inspired city cursed with a mysterious plague known only as the "Beast Scourge." You arrive in Yhaarnam by way of spooky blood magic as the latest inductee to this underground society of Hunters, whose sole purpose is to hunt and kill the beasts terorrizing the town. But, this is a Dark Souls game, and so there's no possible way there could be anything hidden deeper in this cool werewolf game, right?

Episode 123: Choose Your Own Blood God

Four years ago, we asked the question "Which Legend of Zelda Item Would You Bring with You to a Deserted Island?" Well, in case you didn't notice, a big, beautiful, new Legend of Zelda game released last month and it's time for us to recapture the magic and surf the SEO wave! So, just like season 3 of Lost, we have to go back. Inspired by Tears of the Kingdom, this week we're asking, "Which two Legend of Zelda Items Would You Bring with You to a Deserted Island?"

When all your problems are nails, everything is a hammer. Unfortunately for Todd, there are no nails on this island. Matt hasn't played TotK yet, but he has seen 2000's Castaway and that has to be something. Meanwhile, Kyle is here to ask more questions about video game physics than we could possibly answer.

Episode 122: Expensive Spaghetti and Casual Infidelity (ft. Kelsey Lewin)

April showers have brought May flowers and as winter transitions to spring, we here at DT!HQ are looking for something seasonal to celebrate! Unfortunately, we've already passed the Q1 holidays. So, in an effort to save this loosely constructed episode topic, we reached back into our collective high school trauma and decided to do a Prom Episode! Now, when I think of Prom, the first video game I think of is 1987's Punch-Out!! That's why this week we're asking the question, "Which Punch-Out!! Boxer would you take to prom?"

Andrew ventured to the Great White North in search of a date and a gallon of maple syrup. Kyle is making an enterance with the power of dance and white liesure suits. Todd is actually still banned from DT!HQ Prom, so we invited a new friend to our Prom Group. Welcome, from the school district across the county (and also the Video Game History Foundation,) Kelsey Lewin to our fancy dinner reservation!

Episode 121: Lyndon B. Come Johnson (ft. Eric Silver)

Six months ago, we dreamt up some new edutainment games. Well it went so well that we decided to do it again! This time, we wanted to change it up a bit. Instead of turning an existing game into an edutainment game, this week we attempt to turn existing historical events into playable video games! We even invited a guest this time!

Kyle is here to talk about everyone's favorite nexus point, and also put us all on a list. Todd rehashes a tumblr post that we promise you've seen at least twice. Andrew embarks on the journey that is presidential scandals, but no, not THAT one. And finally, our very good friend Eric Silver from Multitude Podcasting is here mostly to talk about Midnight in Paris.

Episode 120: His Eyes: They Shooty

We here at DT!HQ have certainly hit our stride when it comes to remakes of cable television shows. We've talked about Cribs, Forged in Fire, Forged in Fire again, Celebrity Rehab and a number of other gems of the 2000s. Today we're running it back and dipping a toe into the Reality TV Universe (RTVU). It is our mission today to use the path laid by the RTVU to guide the future of the MCU. So with that in mind, today we're asking, "what would be the best reality show to remake starring the X-Men?"

It's honestly a little disturbing how much we knew about reality TV. Matt flexes his knowledge with a deep cut WB show. Andrew scopes in on the personality of late 90s Nickelodeon Teens. Todd completes the infernal contract we must sign to talk about reality television as he invokes the name of the Bachelor(ette).
