Monster Party

In this episode, MONSTER PARTY asks the question: Are those kids torturing a naked drunk, or just playing OPERATION

JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, grab ahold of their joysticks, and take on one of their most challenging topics... GAMES!!!

Admittedly not the most game savvy of nerds, the MONSTER PARTY gang realized they needed the perfect guest to do this topic justice. Through a series of strategic moves, and bit of rolling the dice, they landed on a man who is a game designer, bestselling author, Disney Imagineer, and the best damn game historian in the universe! MONSTER PARTY welcomes... SCOTT ROGERS! (MAXIMO, PAC-MAN WORLD, GOD OF WAR, LEVEL UP! THE GUIDE TO GREAT VIDEO GAME DESIGN,  SWIPE THIS! THE GUIDE TO TOUCHSCREEN GAME DESIGN, MICKEY'S FUN WHEEL CHALLENGE, RAYGUNS AND ROCKETSHIPS, PANTONE)

Then, by consulting the mystic "EYE OF ZOHAR", we also managed to nab game enthusiast, and a MONSTER PARTY friend of the show, who coincidentally happens to be the wife of Shawn Sheridan... GINA SHERIDAN!

Get ready for a 6 player journey through the entire history of games! We go from the earliest travel games (like the one in King Tut's tomb), on to the world of classic board games, the invention of PONG and the rise of the video games, the resurgence of pinball games, the arcade vs home console conundrum, the DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS revolution, and beyond!

Don't let your day go KERPLUNK! Listen now!

Let MONSTER PARTY be your MONSTROUS MARRIAGE COUNSELORS!

JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, pop the question, "Why don't more marriages last?" Answer: Because they become... MACABRE MARRIAGES!!!

In this matrimony challenging episode, MONSTER PARTY investigates married couples who take the vow, "Til death do we part", a little too literally. We've got amorous aliens, bloody brides, demented Don Juans, gruesome grifters, insensitive insectoids, perverse parents... AND MORE!

Walking us us down the aisle of this potentially thorny subject, is a returning guest and an acclaimed filmmaker, who brought us such films as TREKKIES, TREKKIES 2, SUCKERS, and THE NATURE OF EXISTENCE... ROGER NYGARD!

Roger's new award winning documentary, THE TRUTH ABOUT MARRIAGE, may provide a few of you with some practical help in avoiding your own MACABRE MARRIAGE. For the rest...there's always Mexico!

SPOILER ALERT: In this podcast, we discuss a certain episode of GAME OF THRONES, that features a rather non traditional wedding ceremony. If you haven't seen this episode, you may want to fast forward ahead. You're welcome.

ATTENTION: Stay tunes after the end music and outtakes  for the kaiju conclusion of our BONUS CONTENT from the 2018 G FEST CONVENTION in Chicago! Bringing it all home is our old pal, TERROR OF MECHA-GODZILLA enthusiast... ADAM G. HULTS!
