Episode 26 – With Special Guest Derek Chung, Creator of Emberwind!

Published March 5, 2019

Hey gang!

After a bit of break (we had to recover from that caffeine kick last episode!), we are back with what might be our best interview yet! On the show we have Mr. Derek Chung, president of Nomnivore Games and the creator of the super unique and amazingly beautiful tabletop RPG, Emberwind. What started out like your standard interview about gaming and game creation, quickly spilled out into life lessons, psychotherapy, video game history and so much more! Listen as Derek takes us deep into his mind, and how he wanted to tackle Emberwind from a very different angle then what had been done with tabletop games in the past. So click on, buckle up and listen in, as we present you another Xennial point of view on The Happy Xen Podcast!

Episode 25 -Get Deadly!

Published February 1, 2019

Hello listeners!

Well it took a little over a year, but it would seem our hosts have finally lost their minds! In this very special episode of The Happy Xen Podcast, Adam and Matt decide it’s a good idea to taste test SIX different varieties of coffee from our friends at Deadly Grounds Coffee (as well as their 8-bit Beans brand), in the span of just under an hour. They didn’t go at it alone though. Joined with the guys are their wives, Louise and Stacey, and Adam and Louise’s daughter Grace (with special engineering help from Julia). Will they survive? Or will coffee madness set it? Click on, buckle up and listen in, as we present you another Xennial point of view on The Happy Xen Podcast!

Episode 22 – The Future is Now!

Published November 24, 2018

Hey gang!

Welcome back for another episode of The Happy Xen Podcast! This week we are back to our original home (Adam’s basement pub), and coming at you with some insight into the future tech we have today. The guys go through their average day 20 years ago, and compare it to today, highlighting the changes in technology that we would have thought was more SCI-FI, then common place back then. Plus, we have a look at the films in theatres now and coming out before the end of the year. Is there anything worth watching? Or should you save your money and stay home?  So click on, buckle up and listen in, as we present you another Xennial point of view on The Happy Xen Podcast!
