What is the format of the auction draft?
Hey, everybody. We are on our end of the year break, so we are off for two weeks. But during that time, we are re-releasing some of our favorite episodes, and we are going to start off with our auction draft episode. This is where Paul, myself, and Ryan all took turns drafting the games that we were most excited for and the games that we thought stood the best chance at Game of the Year. This episode took place early in the year, so games like Astro Bot we really didn't even know about But we wanted to revisit this episode just to see who got it right, maybe who got it wrong. And, you know, in the end, who won the draft? Now that we know more at the end of the year, we hope you enjoy.
Hello, fellow gamers. Welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast, hosted by three lifelong gamer dads. We have something very special for you all today. It's actually an idea that we've kicked around several times and somehow kept forgetting about it. Today is finally the day. This is going to be our inaugural annual auction of our most anticipated games of the year. I am your host, Paul. And joining me, do we have a starting bid of a dollar? Do I hear a dollar? One dollar, people. One dollar. No? It's Josh.
I know Ryan. Ryan's going to insert cricket sounds right there. That's fine. You know why? Because I'm priceless, boys. You guys both know that there's no amount of money that can replace me.
It's all sentimental value, Josh. That's what you call it. All right. And then joining us, do we have a starting bid of a dollar? Yes. Do I hear $5? Yes. The man in the back with the Helldiver shirt. Do I hear $25? Sold for $1,000. It's Ryan. For liberty and justice. $1,000.
Dude, dang. Ryan is the youngest in the group. I'm cannon fodder, man. They're going to send me off and just go get smashed by a bile titan, but it's worth it. Sorry, Ryan.
All right. Before we jump into our bonus round, which, by the way, is our first bonus round since January 1st. It has been a minute.
It's long overdue, but it's going to be great, man. I am so excited for this one.
I have not been this excited for an episode in quite some time. Josh, I think you're going to kick us off by reading a couple of listener reviews.
Oh, yeah. What better way to start a show than reading some sweet, sweet listener reviews? Honestly, everybody has been absolutely fantastic lately. We've got more reviews lately than I can remember. We usually try to read them on the show. I have a couple good ones, so I'm just going to read them. And if anybody out there ever wondered if I read a review word for word, you're about to find out. This first one comes in from North Owl from Canada, and it's titled Just What I Was Looking For. It's five stars, and it says, Paul, John, and Ryan do an amazing job of covering all sorts of up-to-date topics on video games. Shut up, you two. The viewer interaction through Forza Friend and similar veins is done very well.
I find Paul and Ryan to provide excellent analysis, while John works as an amazing color commentator. With three episodes a week, this is perfect for me. Well done, boys. Oh, okay.
John's been joining us recently on the pod. I am about 95% sure this is a troll job. If they know how many episodes were released in a week, they know your name is Josh. I just have to say that I, I think this is one of the funniest reviews we've ever read. Yeah. I just love that they call you John, not just once, but twice.
If this is a troll, absolute kudos and respect to you, Northell. And if it's not, you know what? I forgive you anyway. It's still a four-letter name. If it starts with a J, own it.
Say, yes, it was a troll. And how you can claim that is come to our Discord and then talk a lot of smack.
I've got any of them Johns around here. All right. And then this second one comes in from yikes. That could be, and it's five stars and it's titled so cool. And it says started listening two days ago. Yet this podcast is so cool. I love it. Please release more videos. How about every Sunday?
