Growing up in the Midwest, I loved playing cards. One of the card games that I enjoyed playing with my brother is Skip-Bo. I really haven't found many others that play it, though. It made me really happy that when I introduced the game to my boys, that they really enjoyed it. Of course, we had to do a podcast about it. #Skip-Bo

We just saw the movie and already I'm reading stuff about the cast for the sequel.

No spoilers here, but the beasts can be found in the valise. #FantasticBeasts #HarryPotter

Another episode in BGP's How-To series. Mark & his Dad (and Jacob) install a FiTech throttle body electronic fuel injection in Mark's 1983 Camaro.
