    Hi Rob and Pernell,

    I am a long time listener, first time suggester. For some reason, I couldn’t send you my topic/track suggestions through your email, so here I am.

    For the topic, I was thinking that you guys could do Mobile Madness, an episode of music from only IOS or Android games.

    For the track, I want to suggest this song from Angry Birds Epic, ā€œKing Pig and His Manic Minionsā€, composed by Trollhorn a.k.a Henri Sorvali.

    When I played this game on my phone for the first time, I thought i... more

    Man, I didn’t realize how much I was missing out on until I checked out this podcast. More than any other podcast in this genre, this one has really opened my eyes into how body hair sculpting can really change your life. I no longer feel shame about my irregular body hair, and I enjoy participating in a community of likeminded individuals who share tips and strategies for modifying body hair. Keep it up!

R&P Chat 38-8 Hoagies, Subs, and Other Jawns
Q: Chris, what are some of the last two or three board games that you played that stuck out to you?
The one that really stuck out was my purchase of the 42nd edition of Cosmic Encounter, which I played recently and had a lot of fun with.
Episode 38-6 In Concert with the NJGSO!
Q: So can you think of a track from a particular game that you would like to have the orchestra perform, but you haven't attempted it?
I want to work on a couple of arrangements myself. I love the Kid Icarus soundtrack, and I would love to do a medley of that, but I feel like it's so fun.
Episode 38-6 In Concert with the NJGSO!
Q: Is this a favorite of the orchestra to play, or is this?
I think one of them for sure. I feel like this and Bloodborne, like the ones we showed tonight, were all big hits at the group.
Episode 38-6 In Concert with the NJGSO!
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about what went into that arrangement, or maybe some challenges or things that you really liked about performing that one?
We have a history of doing One Main Angel. We've done it a lot. We updated the arrangement for our 10-year anniversary concert. Some challenges were like, we had this crazy shreddy guitar parts and I also wanted to conduct it, so we had to find guest players to help with that.
R&P Chat 38-5 Smash Bros. Live!
Q: Do you have any shows coming up?
