	Description:		Interview Tell the audience a little about yourself and what you enjoy doing both in and outside of geekdom? What is geek to you and what makes you a geek? What’s a ‘stand out’ geek moment of your life/you're proud of? Are you enjoying #Bazzeroth? What do you like most? What do you like least? Time to Plug your internet geekery! Halfhill Report, a small town view of a very large world. Fictional radio broadcast from the village of Halfhill. Trying to create the feel of how a small town college radio station would cover not only local news but news of Azeroth. (shameless plug - Pod Before the Storm Twitch Panel Oct 28th at 7 pm Eastern - 4 pm server). Panel is part of Con Before the Storm Our Geeky weeks Robbie WoW - aside from getting my cooking to max level I’m now grinding through rep. Thoughts on how it’s been for us? D&D - My monk is a little bit wiser now I’m off galavanting next week - off to visit family and friends in Finland! Tosh WoW - Spent way too much gold in the AH buying coarse leather and blood-stained bones to make 50 Drums of the Maelstrom to get up to 150 leatherworking. So now I need to run dungeons to get Expolsum and Hydrocore to make 355 gear. Running island expeditions to try to speed level my Draenei priest (Velmic - from the show!) Got my World of Podcasts shirt for Con Before the Storm Holiday LAST week - took my daughter, her husband and my grandson to Disneyland. Great use of tech at Disneyland. I ordered and paid for our corndogs on the Disney app and just walked up to the window, showed my phone and got my food.

Marie Buhtz‏ @mbuhtz Oct 2 @TGCshow I do NOT answer calls that don't have caller ID unless I'm specifically expecting a call. I block numbers that Google identifies as spam and that don't leave a message. I return declined calls that leave a meaningful message. #BlockityBlockBlock Shoryl‏ @shoryl_mn Oct 1 @tgcshow I only answer my phone if I know who you are, or am for some reason expecting a call from an unknown number. While I’m intrigued by the e-ink typewriter, I don’t write enough to make it worthwhile regardless of the price point. And Marie gives us an update on her family’s D&D campaign!Marie Buhtz‏ @mbuhtz Oct 1 Family D&D night. The telepathic scorpid sorcerer, sethrak archer, halfling wizard, and half-orc fighter go up against a phase spider and a cloud of stirges while searching a tomb.
