Crosstawk

No really. 2016 has been an all around shit year. David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Prince, Sharon Jones, Democracy....we decided to take a trip down memory lane and talk about our favorite games of 2015. 

Hey folks! BOP is back for another one. This time we talk about Marvel's newest, Dr. Strange, before getting into Arrival, Loving, Morris From America, and Hacksaw Ridge! Then in our second segment we all gather round to discuss Jonny's pick for Movie of the Month, The Shop Around the Corner! Have a question for us? Send it over to crosstawk@gmail.com or to Twitter(@crosstawk) and we'll answer it on the show. Also be sure to head over to iTunes to leave us a rating and review. See you in two weeks!

A Thousand Words returns to give you the knowledge you crave. And it's Boschtober in November! The spookiest time to be late! This time we look at Earthly Vanity and Divine Salvation Front 3rd Panel (front) by Hans Moleman and discuss just about anything else; such as: Nashville Hot Chicken, our favorite horror movies, and ghost farts.

Gabe and Garett decided that after a long week, this country could use a little companionship. We talk about our favorite friends, companions, lifemates, and what have yous of video gaming. 

In the newest AustinMates Jess takes a night off and we're instead joined by Marco Balducci. We talk about Titanfall 2, new Mass Effect news, and dance around the topic of Steep because no one read the NDA to know what we can say about it. 

After a too-long absence, the adventurers return to engage in awkward conversation, ride a boat, and make a fateful decision. Along the way Skumk goes through some changes, Jelly invents a new dessert, and Coen baloons.

Hello everybody! We've returned (without Stan, unfortunately) to bring you a new episode full of movies! We kick it off with our Spotlight discussion on Moonlight before getting into A Valley of Violence, Tale of Tales, Michael Moore in Trumpland, Being George Clooney, and much more. Then in our second segment we open up a new batch of your listener mail. Have a question for the crew? Send it over to crosstawk@gmail.com or to Twitter(@crosstawk)! Also head on over to iTunes to leave us a rating and review. Be sure to join us again in two weeks when we discuss Jonny's pick for Movie of the Month, The Shop Around the Corner. See you then!

In our latest episode Garett and I talk about our favorite female protagonists. Women haven't had an easy run in gaming, but we managed to find quite a few ladies that we felt were more than deserving of mention. 

One fried hard drive and a few lost podcast templates later, AustinMates is back with some big news! In this episode we discuss the new Nintendo console, the Switch. We're pretty excited about it, and hopefully you'll enjoy listening to us nerd out a little.

In this Kid Tested, Pope Approved episode, the gang covers Pablo Picasso's Guernica. Can they find anything funny about a painting about a horrible tragedy? No, but that's why Alex Jones pays a visit. Also, Ron brings the sexyback; Stan discovers his muse; and Jessica makes the Darkwing connection.

Hi folks! BOP returns for another movie-filled episode. Karl and the Jons dive right in with a discussion of our Spotlight movie 13th before getting into Other People, The Birth of a Nation, American Honey, The Girl on the Train, and more!

Welcome back everyone! In the latest episode Garett and I are joined by Jonathan Metts as we talk about developers until we're super sweaty and can't stop screaming at everyone. Or maybe that was Steve Ballmer? I forget. Either way you should give it a listen as we talk about our favorite development studios as well as Call of Duty: World at War, and Saint's Row IV: Re-Elected. 

For our latest episode we are joined by Myriam Feygin of Complex Infinity to talk about their new VR game S#arp Shooter! This episode runs quite long, but Myriam was gracious enough to share quite a bit of information with us about their game, including where it started and where they're going. I hope you'll all check it out and enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.  Not ones to disappoint, we were also sure to tell you all about what we've been playing, and of course, The Pitch. This episode's Pitch: "Criminal Girls 2: Party Favors". 

Wow! 2016 has just eaten up the time of the hosts of A Thousand Words. We've been incredibly busy! Between Jessica's successes as a comedian, Ron's new baby girl (Mazel Tov!), and Stan being in a play, there hasn't been the time needed to record together. But, as you can see, we're still here!  In this episode we discuss H. Jon Benjamin's The American Soldier 1863, where we discuss a Civil War Fashion Show! Additionally, we discuss the cinematic classic Major Payne, the Church of Satan, and discuss who had the sexiest soldiers in the Civil War. Additionally, Stan embarrasses himself by not knowing who Patrick Wilson is. 

Things have come to a head as our adventurers have come face to face with a very angry Jack Steward. Will the gang finally escape from prison? Maybe; but Coen will also give a massage, Skumk will get naked, and Jelly will be traumatized.

Hey everybody! BOP returns for another episode featuring Karl and the Jons. What we may lack in number of people we make up for with number of movies. Along with our Spotlight discussion on Goat, we cover Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Southside With You, Florence Foster Jenkins, Amanda Knox, and more!

So it turns out that both of us have played Genesis games. Who knew? We decided to talk about some of our favorites, and also talk about a few newer games, inlcuding some brief impressions of Forza Horizon 3. Have a listen! 

Hello everyone! BOP returns and without Karl and Stan. They couldn't make it but Jon steps in the host chair, flanked by Mike and Jonny to bring you talk of movies and talk of movie things. First we shine a spotlight on Blair With before getting into what else we've been watching including Sing Street, Hell or High Water, Embrace of the Serpent, The Battle of Algiers, and more! Then in our second segment we cover Mike's pick for Movie of the Month, Wag the Dog!

Better late than never, right? This week Garett and I discuss our favorite weapons in gaming. We also talk about Garett's first impressions of Portal 2 co-op, and Valve's apparent allergy to the number 3. 

Our adventurers decide that now is the time to escape. How do they manage? Surprisingly well, actually. But that doesn't stop them from making a few stupid moves. Listen on the edge of your seat as Jelly forces their hand, Skumk fiddles with keys, and Coen ruins everything.
