The video podcast Dwarven Tavern interviewed me during Gen-Con. Here’s that interview:
It’s actually a follow-up interview from the one they did of me last year. Sadly, I never found it until during recently. Here’s that one:

Digression 8: Valentine’s Day Karaoke 2014 – ‘If’ by House of Heroes
I’m a day late, but not a dollar short! I’ve decided to make V-Day karaoke videos an annual tradition. This year, I sing one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands. Sadly, I re-learn why I shouldn’t sing tenor. Let’s just say I thought I should start a band called American Idol Rejects. While I didn’t have a specific girl in mind when I sang this, I identify with several lines from the song. Enjoy!
(Please pardon the typo in the video’s title).
Digression 7: Episode 19 Gag Reel
Sarah, Anthony, and I had lots of fun making episode 19 of my vlog. We’re also quite silly. And nerdy. Check out these outtakes, ab libs, and flubbed lines. They’re as funny as the actual episode! (Which you can view here). Enjoy!
But I Digress…, Episode 19 Teaser Trailer
Here’s a homespun “trailer” for my next vlog. I don’t normally do this, but it’s a review for a major event in fandom and I had a fun idea for a preview, so I made it. I even tried recording a voiceover for teh first time.
Featuring the music from the “Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor” teaser trailer music, composed by Murray Gold.
Special thanks to the Whovians and celebrities I met at Gen-Con 2012 and 2013, who you see in those photo montage. I hope none of you mind me using those pictures.

Gen-Con 2013 Highlight Reel
I’m a writer, and I can’t find the words to express how fun Gen-Con was this year! Here’s a video compilation of the fun things I did and crazy/amazing people I met. Thanks Eric Anderson and Darrin Ball for joining me on this adventure!
Please enjoy, True Believers!
Digression 5: My Best of NaPoWriMo
In this special video, I read my five favorite poems from this past National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo) in April. I based these selections on my own opinion and on reader feedback. Trust me, it was difficult to choose only five!
I’ll post a list of all the poems soon.

An Announcement from Nate
Wondering why I haven’t posted a new video lately? I explain why here. I also make an important announcement.
Featuring the song “The Touch” by Stan Bush.
Digression 4: Valentine’s Day Karaoke – “Send Me an Angel” by The Megas
(Wondering where “Digression 3” is? Watch it here).
I may dislike Valentine’s Day, but it won’t stop me from doing a karaoke video to celebrate it! Not only to do you get to hear me sing (badly), I posted the lyrics so you can sing along.
I chose the cover of Real Life’s “Send Me an Angel” recorded by the Mega Man tribute band, The Megas. Why? First, it’s an ’80s song (I love that decade). Second, it was covered by The Megas, one of my favorite bands. Third, I’ve yet to hear a song that so perfectly expresses my own longing to one day find a special girl.
Special thanks to:
Real Life, for originally recording the song
The Megas, for this amazing and nerdy cover
Jarod Marchand, for making a cameo
Sergio Garza, for providing the microphone prop
Digression 1: Today, We are Cancelling the Apocalypse!
The Mayans’ doomsday came…and nothing happened?! Big surprise, right? Here’s what I had to say about it.
This is the first of a series of “mini-videos” that I’ll be posting periodically as supplements to my main vlog, “But I Digress….” They may be follow-ups to the vlogs or completely unrelated. (Hence why they’re called “Digressions.”)
Anyway, I hope you enjoy!
