KnockBack, Episode 141: Dagan and His Son
Added 2020-10-22 17:39:53 +0000 UTCWhen you grow up with a father who's obsessed with all things retro, it's safe to assume the apple won't fall from the ever-nerdy tree. In that spirit, we have a guest on this episode: Dagan's son, Graeden. Together, father and son take a walk through their shared passions -- video games, especially -- and how one dad's love of nostalgia naturally enchanted his kid. The end result is something we hope you find charming, if not a little different. It's almost like getting to interview our younger selves, and we hope you get a kick out of it.

This was a fantastic episode! I have a 10 year old son and a 13 year old daughter and I can just feel the love you have for your kids. One of my favorite episodes yet!

Colin Moriarty
2020-11-01 19:42:59 +0000 UTCTrust me, I am working on his lack of Castlevania fandom. He's missing out.
Colin Moriarty
2020-11-01 19:42:55 +0000 UTCI love this!
Tyron Hay
2020-10-31 10:30:27 +0000 UTCI also want to say I agree with Dagan that he is very similar to Colin in more ways than his taste in games the main thing I notice that is similar is his genuine honesty
Blake Wall
2020-10-30 17:41:57 +0000 UTCYou talk about him not liking Castlevania but there is a lot of variation in the series I recommend showing him some of the different types of Castlevania games from different eras and systems
Blake Wall
2020-10-30 02:12:52 +0000 UTCIt's not his best movie but have you guys seen The Cat Returns it has its problems but its still a great movie

2020-10-30 02:08:37 +0000 UTCWe're all used to it in this family with our last name alone. <3
Colin Moriarty
2020-10-29 20:47:28 +0000 UTCPoor kid is gonna be spelling out that name to customer service representatives for decades. All kidding aside Graeden is more eloquent at 10 than I am at 27.

Colin Moriarty
2020-10-27 19:07:31 +0000 UTCHe's got good taste. Except for with Castlevania, which he doesn't care about.
Colin Moriarty

2020-10-27 19:06:29 +0000 UTCPossibly.
Colin Moriarty

Colin Moriarty
2020-10-27 19:06:15 +0000 UTCI have no insight into this matter.
Colin Moriarty
2020-10-27 19:06:12 +0000 UTCOhhhhh!
Colin Moriarty

Colin Moriarty
2020-10-27 19:05:08 +0000 UTCJust want to add to the pile of positivity! This was a wonderful deviation from the norm. I'd totally love if this were a yearly or semiannual thing! Or like someone else mentioned, highlighting some of the contemporary Nintendo titles that Colin isn't keen on. Also great job on the editing Dustin!
Jordan Falduto
2020-10-27 02:07:40 +0000 UTCI’m sending Dagan my thoughts on this ep directly, but Colin if you read this I believe you’ve found your hosts for the CLS Nintendo podcast. In addition, I’d love for you to get Graeden’s thoughts on Sackboy for PS5.

Josh Gamez
2020-10-23 17:22:13 +0000 UTCThis was great. Youve raised Graden well. "Fortnite sucks" gives me hope for the next generation 🤣🤣🤣
Erik Peterson

brody_low
2020-10-22 17:49:05 +0000 UTCThis is so crazy, I remember suggesting to Dagan that he should do a fatherhood episode one day when Col took a day off. We got just that :)
