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 87 - The Worst Video Game Mascots of All Time!

Jan 21, 2021

Welcome to a Dogcast of positively monumental proportions! This week we're joined by our super pals Wes and Rob from the excellent YouTube retro-gaming (and beer!) channel: Gaming Off the Grid! Together we debate, discuss, and deliberate our way to building our official Mount Rushmore of the WORST VIDEO GAME MASCOTS OF ALL TIME! And let us tell you, there is no shortage of absolutely horrible, incredibly annoying, and PTSD-inducing mascots and games through the years. We're going to need another drink or three.

So hold on to your Boogerman and your Wild Woodys kids, and get ready to embark on a trip back to an era where 'tude ruled and anthropromorphic wombats/bobcats/food/pencils/etc. roamed the video game world!

Oh, and for some reason we talk about Doink the Clown(s).
