Time Pals Podcast
The Time Pals are four geeky dads squandering their mid-life crises by diving headfirst into the best, worst, and weirdest corners of geek culture. Twice a month show hosts, Mike Underscore, ShadoSpartan, Nickell, and Jon Powell dust off old VHS tapes, blow into vintage game cartridges, and try to out-“Well, actually…” each other over the nerdy media they all pretend to love.If you're into pixelated graphics, ridiculous plot holes, AI-fueled adventures, and a hearty dose of chaotic humor—congratulations, you’ve just found your new Pals.
