  • BORING!!!!!

    I listened to the first 3 minutes of an episode, Danny sounds bored and has no energy in his voice. Just so monotoned. This podcast is one of the worst I’ve ever listened to. Worse the ones with the girls who think they funny and talk about drinking. Dude if your not interested in doing a podcast then just don’t do it, I listened to the whole episode and even the chick sounds just as bad as you. I hate kinda funny due to their politics but I listen to them cause it’s much more entertaining.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Attention Economy and the Underbelly of the Business of "Fun"
Q: Destin, what is tough about being a creator when people only see your end creation and not all the choices you make to get the final product out there?
Time management and the need to balance quality, process, and audience expectations; if a piece doesn't resonate, it's about assessing pride in the output and learning for next time, not chasing perfection.
The Wolf Among Us 2 Interview: Returning Voice Cast, Comic Canon, & Episodic Format
Q: How will Big B's character be handled in the sequel?
Big B will be explored more deeply—his personality, struggles, and how his history shapes who he is now—while remaining faithful to the character as established in the comics and Wolf 1, with players deciding who he becomes in this new context.
The Wolf Among Us 2 Interview: Returning Voice Cast, Comic Canon, & Episodic Format
Q: Will this be accessible to new players who didn't play the first game?
Yes, new players will be welcomed with world-building details in case files and lore documents, while the story remains engaging for returning players who will recognize the world and characters; the experience is designed to be standalone yet complementary to the first game and the comics.
PM Studios CEO Interview: The Wolf Among Us 2, Physical Games & PANAX
Q: Why is Panex important to PM Studios' strategy?
Panex is about uniting players across platforms and creating a strong community that can sustain a game through digital and physical channels, including special editions and merchandise that enhance fan engagement.
PM Studios CEO Interview: The Wolf Among Us 2, Physical Games & PANAX
Q: What do you look for when someone pitches a game to PM Studios?
I look for whether I can genuinely help the project—it's not just about the game, but the team, the people, and whether we can collaborate well long term to bring the game to market and find its audience.
