This episode of Toons w/ Jack and Brian is a mess. A hot, beautiful mess. The guys decide that, naturally, the best way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day is to do a drunk edition of Toons.
Thanks to the logistical nightmare that IS the American tradition of changing clocks, Brian brought Mart - who was waking up at 2 AM England time to drink with the guys - on an hour later than he expected to.
But Jack, Brian and Mart tackle the subject of Irish history, lore and tradition with all the grace and reverence that you would expect from them.........once they've imbibed heavily.
Welcome to the Weekend!
Season 1, Episode 7 of Toons Game Time features a few changes. This
is the first episode that is recorded on a Friday. It's the first
episode that forgoes the Question of the Week as a regular feature. It's
the first episode that includes a video game remix in lieu of the
Commercial of the Week as well.
But the most important things that are included are the news and the fun.
Brian and guest host Ryan Noble discuss the upcoming development of Rock Band 4 and Fallout 4 -
revealing where they think the Fallout series should focus their next
storyline - before they even get a chance to tackle today's topics.
They talk about sales figures, people quitting, nefarious hacking activities, people dying while playing video games and in protest of not being allowed to play video games, PS4 updates and something about Mario Party 10. Or something like that.

Brian returns from Injury Reserve (Illness/Exhaustion) with his friend Mart as they discuss the latest from the video game industry and there is MUCH to talk about.
Mart gives listeners his impressions of The Order: 1886 before the guys talk about Microsoft's plans for E3, Kanye West's video game venture, Nintendo's Amiibo successes and pending expansion, and a game centered around the exploration of the ill-fated Titanic (that will likely NOT include Kate Winslet's boobs).
Then they'll talk about .... a $386,000 special edition of Dying Light? Eff that noise!

This week on Toons Game Time, Brian invites Tucker, a new friend in the Toons family, to discuss the latest news and notes from the world of video games. They'll talk about Joystiq's really bad week, Ubisoft's continued missteps and IKEA's venture into puzzle gaming.
Then, the two take a look at digital downloads and the impact they have on the industry as well as reveal some of the games being released in the upcoming week.
This week's Toons Game Time was pushed back a day and, frankly, could have used a couple more hours. Listeners will find out what Brian is like when he hasn't slept for 21 hours and tries to do a podcast.
Luckily, to help handle the load, Ryan Noble came along and helped save the day as the two talked about the latest video game news including EA's future "Free-To-Start" possibility on consoles, big money changing hands on ebay once again, Microsoft's Windows 10 reveal, Joystiq's decision to move away from rating games and more.
They also go over listeners' answers to last week's Question of the Week, reveal this week's QotW AND tell you what games are being released in the next 14 days or so.
This is the ToonsShow.com and TrendingTopicsNetwork.com presentation of Toons Game Time.
It's Episode 3 of the first season of Game Time and Brian's brought along the man who knows more about the British wrestling scene than most British wrestlers, Paul "PK" Kissock.
It's been awhile since the guys have talked so they catch up a little before diving into stories like Dragon Age: Inquisition's recent stats reveal, Mutant League Football constantly being on the horizon and the stress-relieving, empathy-inducing qualities of Rock Band. And that's before they even begin to discuss whether or not video gaming is a sport.
On this, the second episode of Toons Game Time, Brian welcomes fellow hockey writer/photoshopper/video gamer Ryan Noble to the show.
They discuss various news items from the video games industry, including Microsoft's pseudo-enthusiasm about gamers monetizing their video game streams, Rock Band's first DLC in nearly two years and an NES game that is selling on eBay for nearly $100K.
Later, they'll talk about each system's exclusive titles expected to be released in 2015 and what the Wii U's list of potential hits could mean for the system's future.
This is the premier episode (Season 1 Episode 1) of Toons Game Talk. Uncensored coverage of the latest news in the video game world.
On this episode, Brian (from Toons) invites this long-time friend from the UK along for the ride and they discuss gamers who lose tons of real money in games, Microsoft's new team of "top secret" developers, JoyStiq.com's awesome deal centered around game development courses and Sony's insistence on screwing over its customer base.
They also take a look at the games that are being released in the next couple of weeks.
And they do it all Toons-style.

This week on Toons, Jack and Brian had everything planned out. Then they got word that ESPN's Stuart Scott had passed.
So, for this week's show, the two first discuss Stuart Scott, his battle and what he meant to millions of viewers.
After that, the guys get the show back on track and ask each other 10 questions each about what 2015 holds in store for the world. No avenue is left unexplored and neither have any knowledge of what the other will ask. It's Toons done the way it's meant to be done: spontaneously!
