Big Red Barrel Podcasts

Happy New Year We're week three into  Dan ,  Tim  and  Coleman 's self-imposed exile from recording weekly Podcasts but we've still got a special stash to keep you entertained. Would you believe that it's time once again for us to predict which games will be the ones that you should be keeping an eye out for this year (and then later find out which ones have been delayed or cancelled)? Time Stamps...

Happy (almost) New Year We're week two into  Dan ,  Tim  and  Coleman's  time away from recording and we thought to try something different.

Hello dear Listener and the Happiest of Holidays to you. We're away for our little end-of-year break for a handful of weeks to spend time with our friends, family, loved ones and (of course) our video games. However, to keep you topped up with your regular weekly dose of rambling nonsense Dan , Tim and Coleman have come together and recorded four new episodes. The first show is our Best of 2023, i...
