Ep. 111 – Mating Habits Holiday Extravaganza – We’re Back!

Posted on December 24, 2020 by Kelley

WE’RE BACK! Roger returns to help me say F-Off to 2020 and get Mating Habits started again for 2021.

We celebrate the Holiday Season talking about awkward gift giving during the holidays with a brand new relationships, renting out movie theaters in the age of pandemic, and a new RPG podcast featuring me! where I play in a GURPS space opera across all times zones.

We talk about The Mandalorian Season 2 Finale [SPOILERS FROM MINUTE MARKER 16:05 – 21.58].

Aphrodisiacs aren’t really a thing, and in 2021, we’re still going to flip tables, but we’re going to right them again with reflections of Hygge to end things on a positive note.

Ep. 110 – The COVID-19 Episodes – Revolution

Posted on June 2, 2020 by Kelley

Joe Hogan from the Geektitude and State of the Geek podcasts joins me on this solemn episode of Mating Habits of the Modern Geek. In light of all the terrible things happening in our country (and the world) at the moment, Joe and I stay in our lane and voice our support for the protests and the Black Lives Matter Movement, and then go on to chat about some lighthearted stuff like streaming shows Never Have I Ever and Upload; table-top games like the Kickstarter-only Hel and To Hunt a Killer; and a couple of true-crime podcasts thrown in for good measure.

Here are some links to resources and information about the protests, how you can help, and some podcasts by people of color to talk more about the subject in a way that Joe and I cannot – stay safe out there!

Ep. 109 – The COVID-19 Episodes – Antibodies

Posted on May 27, 2020 by Kelley

Sean Ryan phones it in from an undisclosed location in his driveway and joins me for talks about missing COVID-19 antibodies, snakes, California, and the problems with podcasting in the age of “Cancel Culture.” Sean gets his kid hooked on Sonic the Hedgehog and is one of the only folks still buying Blu-rays…and witness the return of FLIPPING TABLES!

Ep. 108 – The COVID-19 Episodes – Isolation

Posted on May 20, 2020 by Kelley

Geneva and Kevin (formerly Paris and The Business, LLC) join me to discuss what they’ve been up to during the quarantine.

We talk way too long about the Netflix show OBX, give valuable information about Mimics, and discuss the Goofy-Pluto Paradox in Animal Crossing.

I don’t know where Bermuda is, Kevin doesn’t want us to play Monsterhearts 2, and if you don’t start taking vaccines, you may fall victim to my blowdarting skills.

We also explain why looking at another player’s character sheet in Roll20 could be considered by some to be a huge gaming faux pas – you’ve been warned!

Ep. 107 – The COVID-19 Episodes – Murder Hornets

Posted on May 13, 2020 by Kelley

In this episode* JJ and Mark of Atomic Empire (Comics, Games, Toys, and more!) join me to discuss owning a thriving game store during the pandemic, the future of movies and television, and what’s in store for The Mandalorian Season 2. I potentially implicate myself in a social-distancing crime; JJ has surprising interactions with loyal customers; and Mark tries to explain to me what’s so cool about Boba Fett.

*FREE W/ DOWNLOAD: Despite recording in the same house, JJ sometimes sounds like she’s in a cave and Mark sounds like he’s calling in from the Moon – we are truly living in the future, folks!

Andrew comes in clutch and helps me record an episode at the last minute about living your best life, not just to appear more interesting to others, but to make your life more fulfilling for you.

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN HAPPINESS.

We also talk about Black Panther, Destiny, my new obsession with Trailer Park Boys, Pokemon Go, Book Bingo, and a bunch of other stuff.

There are new cats, lonely chickens, and we flip tables over shitty self-published Pick Up Artist dicks, and assholes who talk during complicated Pokemon Go Raids.
