Hair of the Dogcast

A podcast about Video Games and Beer.  And Beer and Video Games.

Hair of the Dogcast is a family of podcasts celebrating our love for gaming and craft beer.  Our show include the following:

The Dogcast - The classic, tried and true.  The Dogcast covers the most recent news and developments in the gaming world.  We discuss what we have been playing and have a light topic discussion.

Raw Dogs - The Raw Dogs like to go deep.  Deep discussions in lore, development, and gameplay.  Single topic.  Deep discussion.

Elden Dogs - An Elden Ring podcast series that explores the deep world-building and gameplay scenarios presented by this rich video game.  We couldn't help ourselves and had to make a 20 part series to celebrate this game.

Beer and Now - Welcome to Beer and Now, our new podcast series about the exciting world of craft beer and the people who make it happen.

The Dogcast 135 - Games That Made You Buy a Console

Sep 6, 2023

Gamescom has come and gone yet again.  Time sure does fly!

In this episode of the Dogcast the dogs drink beer (a lot of it!).  We recap Gamescom and the news for August 2023 and have a little talk on the Playstation Portal and how it only gets more confusing.

The Console Critters catch you up Switch, Xbox, and PS5 including Activision Blizzard and Zelda patents.

Lastly, we settle into our topic of video games that convinced you to buy a console.  What was the straw that broke the camel's back?
