Synopsis
A mediocre podcast about family, life, pop culture, guy stuff, or whatever is on my mind at the time.

Episode 170: BGP 170 - Jedi: Survivor
13/11/2023 Duration: 09minOk, so generally speaking, don't talk to strangers, kids (unless maybe you have a respected adult around). But in this game it is pretty much fine! Hear this and other tips on this second installment in the Jedi series from EA as Jacob and Mark talk about all the fun they've had playing it. #StarWars #Jedi

Episode 169: BGP 169 - Velocicoaster
10/07/2023 Duration: 10minIt's time for summer fun with BGP. This episode, we review one of the newest additions to Universal Islands of Adventure in Florida--it's the Jurassic World Velocicoaster. Fair warning, when Luke talks about getting blasted--he doesn't mean it in the way that some people take it. He's talking about the blast of acceleration that puts the velocity in velocicoaster. It's a triple co-host episode, so check out all the different points of view from the cast.

Episode 168: BGP 168 - Metal Gear Solid V -- The Phantom Pain
09/01/2023 Duration: 07minWe've done a lot of movie reviews over the years, but it's kind of fun that we're getting into some gaming reviews as well. Our more frequent cohosts seems to be more versed in the gaming world than in the movie world. So, fact-check-wise, MGSV TPP wasn't actually released in 2018. It was more like 2015. But otherwise the review stands. Apologies that we reference a sale on the game that ended before the podcast was posted, but timey-wimeyness is all part of the fun of podcasting. Listen in to hear Mark and Jacob's review of the game they both recently enjoyed. If you want to fully appreciate the closing line of the show, just look up Snake's signature line... #MetalGear #MGSV #TPP

Episode 167: BGP 167 - Busch Gardens
17/11/2022 Duration: 07minApologies up front, when Jacob and I were recording this episode this episode the local airport was busier than usual, so there's a bit of background noise at the beginning.. However the banter was so genuine that I didn't think we could repeat it again later. Anyway, check out our review of the latest theme park we visited Busch Gardens! The name of the 90 degree drop coaster that we couldn't remember was Sheikra. That and the rest of the Busch Gardens coasters can be seen on YouTube if you're interested. #BuschGardens #Tampa

Episode 166: BGP 166 - Tents
24/10/2022 Duration: 10minFans of Dad jokes are going to love the intro. We haven't done a product review in a while. Kailey is back as guest host--she and Mark are discussing their new tents. It's been a great fall for camping, so we'd like to share our recent experiences. We hope you enjoy it! #HavenTent #TetonSports

Episode 165: BGP 165 - Sailing Camp
05/08/2022 Duration: 07minHow many types of summer camps are there? Well, quite a few it turns out. I'm sure there are even more out there than I can imagine. A new one in our area (and probably others too) that is a new favorite is sailing camp! Because it was new to us, and different, Mark and Kailey decided to dedicate a whole episode to it. Also, check out the beginning of the episode where Mark gives a brief peek into a currently trending TV show. #sailing

Episode 164: BGP 164 - LEGO Skywalker Saga
02/08/2022 Duration: 09minMore Star Wars? YES! Our family have been big fans of LEGO video games for many years now, and this new one does not disappoint. There's really too much to cram into one episode, but Mark & Luke tried their best. Unfortunately we don't ever happen to find out what Luke meant to say but then forgot. I guess it will remain one of the great mysteries of the universe.

Episode 163: BGP 163 - Kenobi
06/07/2022 Duration: 07minMore Star Wars! What a great time to be alive. When I was a kid, we had to wait years for Star Wars content. Now we have it streaming every few weeks.

Listen in for a spoiler-free review of the show and some new insight into some of the content.

Episode 162: BGP 162 - Ghostbusters Afterlife
23/05/2022 Duration: 10minRick Moranis is the actor I couldn't remember. What a weird way to start off an episode description. I guess you'll just have to listen to Mark & Luke's review of the latest entry into the Ghostbusters (canon) franchise. #Ghostbusters.

Episode 159: BGP 159 - Jungle Cruise
24/11/2021 Duration: 08minIt's not easy to fit a running joke into a 9 minute podcast, but Mark and Luke manage to do it. Also it's only fitting that a movie about a ride filled with bad puns, should also have a few bad puns. Mark and Luke review Disney's latest theme-park inspired movie. #JungleCruise

Episode 158: BGP 158 - Undertale
24/08/2021 Duration: 12minThis one has been a long time in the works. The BGP family started playing Undertale about four years ago. It's come and gone during that time, largely based on the hardware it was on. But at the request of my co-host Luke, we're finally doing an episode on this game. Oh, and for the old folks in the audience, RPG stands for Role Playing Game. Stay determined. #undertale
