Episode 005: Gundam
Giant robots fighting. Teenage boys discovering the horrors of adulthood. The unrelenting compromise and tragic consequence of war. Welcome to Gundam. It's Gundam's 40th anniversary, and I celebrate by giving a very surface review of its sprawling history. Interact with me on Twitter at @carlsmithwriter and don't forget to consider supporting my creative output or visiting my current projects.
Episode 004: Nerd Church Returns
You got to let other people enjoy stuff. Also, religion is a tough fandom to be a part of. Interact with us at @carlsmithwriter and check out Lake Lord Publishing and my Patreon (your support would be tremendously appreciated).
Episode 003: Stuck Fandom
Ever get fandom stuck where it shouldn't be? Here at Goadkicker we are convinced that those of us older, wiser nerds should be evaluating our fandom a little more closely to make sure we are using them as directed. Mostly we need to look at ourselves. Interact and comment over on my Twitter feed @carlsmithwriter, peek in to follow my publishing career at Lake Lord Publishing, or support my creative endeavors at my Patreon!
Episode 002: Fortnite Banned?
Another episode already? Well, like anything worth doing practice makes perfect. Carl is a little rusty and is wanting to get back into gameday shape. Speaking of games, on this episode we talk a little (too little honestly) about D&D, and we discuss Fortnite... and if it is something we should be setting some boundaries around. Don't forget to check out my Patreon and the homepage for Lake Lord Publishing! Follow and interact with Carl on Twitter at @carlsmithwriter.
Episode 001: The Return of Goadkicker
Well that was unexpected! Carl welcomes himself back and talks a little about the state of podcasting and what it might say about the state of Americans. Don't forget to check out my Patreon and the homepage for Lake Lord Publishing. Follow and interact with me on Twitter at @carlsmithwriter.
