Ever wondered if a video game can send shivers down your spine more effectively than a horror movie? That's just a taste of what we're serving up in this boozy gaming gabfest, where Mic and Fernie swap tales of terror from the pixelated depths of Silent Hill to the immersive scares of VR. Grab your brews, folks; we're toasting the eerie and the untamed in video game horror, exploring whether childhood nightmares can evolve into full-grown fear in today's gaming world.

Strap in as we navigate the twists and turns of gaming's past, present, and future – all while sipping on the latest craft beers. From the nostalgic lanes lined with Halo and Mario to the cutting-edge co-op in Helldivers, we dissect what makes a game stand the test of time or fizzle out faster than a dud beer. And speaking of beers, we're not shy about sharing our latest tasting notes – some hit the spot, some miss by a mile, but all are part of the ride.

As the suds settle, we get real about Xbox's latest hurdles, offer candid takes on political speeches (with a side of beer critique, naturally), and shine a spotlight on gaming gems that deserve more love. Beyond the banter, we look toward the horizon of our own podcast, plotting a course through the evolving landscape of gaming media and sponsorships. So come for the games, stay for the laughs, and perhaps, just maybe, you'll find your next favorite beer or game recommendation right here with us.
