Hi Allies!
This silly bonus show has quickly become one of my favorite Easy Allies projects. With a 39-minute run time this week, we clearly get comfortable accepting that this is more of a podcast-format program, just one person's in-depth observations on a first playthrough through this now-classic franchise. Thanks for all ...

Hi Allies--
Sometimes in the podcast biz some real big news happens hours after we finish recording. This time, Nintendo announced that Zelda and the NX have been pushed to March 2017, and you won't hear a peep about it from us today. Despite missing this megaton of disappointment we've still got a relevant and interesting episode t...

Hail, patrons! Episode 5 of Tabletop Escapades is now on SoundCloud and YouTube. It should be available on iTunes soon, whenever Apple decides to refresh the feed. I personally think this episode is a step up from last week. Our heroes get into some tough situations and deal with them in baffling (I use that term endearingly) ways. I sincerely...

It's time again for me to collect your questions and suggestions for everyone's second-favorite segment of The Easy Allies Podcast (first being Podcast Halftime). Last week I picked some questions that would allow Ian to stay positive, but we've got the always-calm-and-collected Daniel Bloodworth this week, so we m...

We're rocketing past our one-month anniversary and have a special group stream planned, along with our first Q&A session this weekend. For this week's editorial, I get into why I'm not working on Trailer shows anymore...for now.
I'll keep working to get these up earlier on Mondays. Thanks for your patience!

Salutations! Frame Trap episode two is finally here and (hopefully) much improved from episode one. We have mics so no more weird audio issues. The YouTube video has timestamps. Of course, if you do notice anything, please let us know (other than Ben mispronouncing Nostalrius. He feels really bad about it).
As for what's discussed, we arg...

Happy Monday! This week's streaming schedule is featured below. We'd like to direct your attention toward Tuesday, where you'll find we're playing non-stop video games from 10am to 8pm PT in celebration of Easy Allies' One Month Anniversary. No vote this week; we're just going to play all of those games.

After a nearly decade-long hiatus, Fox McCloud and team return to active duty in Star Fox Zero for Wii U, a wonderful re-imagining of one of the most beloved games in the series.
2016-04-22 06:02:42 +0000 UTC View PostGreetings! For this episode of Ben's Lore Corner I decided to do things a bit differently. Instead of describing something you're unfamiliar with, I wanted to tackle a place that's already been heavily featured. In the first three episodes of Tabletop Escapades, our heroes battled a group of assassins in Illdwyn Forest. Today, I want to tell y...

Hi Allies--
Tonight I'd like to introduce you to a low-key new series we're producing called Brandon Plays Pokémon, in which I interview our hero Brandon Jones as he embarks on his first-ever Pokémon adventure. This was not part of any Patreon stretch goal, just something Brandon and I figured we could put together late Tuesday ni...

As it is Tuesday, I am looking for your topical suggestions and philosophical questions for this week's Easy Allies Podcast. Last week we learned about Ben's dream to play a game about Drain Sticker the knot of hair and covered an important Codemasters scoop that I almost forgot about. What should we discuss this week?

Happy Monday, everyone! This week I answer questions about our enigmatic finances and ponder what's better - a garage or a studio? We continue to have incredible numbers and consistent growth, so thank you! Check out our newest shows and ask questions below if there's anything you'd like to know.

Why hi there. Some of you are probably already aware of this, but every month we have a special Dungeons & Dragons session with patrons that donated $200 or more. We had to split the patrons up into two groups and this video is the first session of group one. The video is permanently exclusive for all patrons of Easy Allies.

My weekly update delves a bit into the past since some of you revealed you're not entirely familiar with my previous works. So I give some background info on the previous series I worked on and how this new show is the spiritual successor. Hopefully my talks about the style and the philosophy behind the show and its concept are a bit more clear now...

Hey there, patrons! I'm happy to bring you the third episode of Tabletop Escapades. Things get extremely dicey this week as the group tries to figure out some clever (and some not so clever) ways of getting out of trouble. I hope you all enjoy and I'll be back next week at the same time with another episode.

Hi Allies!
It's true, I almost forgot that I need your comments, questions, and topics for this week's episode of the Easy Allies Podcast. But I'm here now! Last week we caught a glimpse of Nintendo's devious future and learned why Bloodworth will never give poor old GTA a chance. Let me know what you'd like to hear us talk about in ...

Hello patrons! Ben here. I'm so excited to share the first episode of our second podcast with you. It's called "Frame Trap" and I'm the host. The goal of the podcast is to offer longer, more casual conversations about a variety of topics. Expect each bi-weekly episode to be around two hours. If possible, I'll try and rotate the cast each week. The ...
