This week, the Time Pals celebrate our first year as a geek dad team—just in time for our month-long summer break (and, regrettably, to give Underscore a reprieve from producing our unique brand of chaos).
From questions born of an ADHD mind, to AI-generated improv adventure stories, cruelly forgotten movie and video game gems, and an array of awesome guest hosts, the Time Pals look back on their favorite moments (and arguments!)—and ponder just how much nerdier we can get for the rest of the year.
A fun and goofy episode? Probably.
A self-serving, cheap, quick-hit? You betcha!
