But I Digress…, Episode 50: Tales from Gen-Con 2024 | Ft. Eric Anderson of Nerd Chapel

Nathan is joined by his friend, co-author, and college friend Eric Anderson, founder of Nerd Chapel, to discuss their adventures at Gen-Con in Indianapolis. It’s “the best four days of gaming” and the biggest vendor hall they’ve ever sold books in.

NEW VIDEO: Omni Viewer x MIFV x But I Digress…: Writers Righting the Wrongs of Heisei Gamera Hot Takes

“But IDigress…” returns (again)!

This week, another YouTuber published a bad faith video full of kaiju hot takes. This time it was GSTE making unfounded criticisms of the masterful Heisei Gamera trilogy. Such a hot take requires the combined powers of Nathan Marchand and Ryan “The Omni Viewer” Collins to rebut it.

This video proved controversial after GSTE got wind of it and bombarded it with comments. See and read for yourself.
