Podcaster / Blogger - Tommy's Video Game Ride Along

Former Co-host of SuperPod Saga / Current host of Tommy's Video Game Ride Along


I've been playing video games my whole life but I've only beaten like 12 of them. I've got a short attention span but I love the truly unique experiences that video games bring.

I'm Using Tilt Controls!


Aaron asked me to make a top 3 list so I'm gonna do that.

Top 3 things that don't exist anymore:

  1. Dinosaurs
  2. Pirates
  3. Blaseball

Top 3 foods:

  1. Cottage cheese
  2. Pumpkin pie
  3. French toast

Top 3 board games:

  1. Carcassonne
  2. Secret Hitler
  3. Risk
