The Daddies are back for a special Survivor bonus episode, and the tribe has opinions.

Andrew, Jacob, and Jason break down the Survivor 50 finale with a full Stance review covering the cast, twists, challenges, rewards, final three, jury reactions, and the overall legacy of the season. Before diving into the review, they recap their night at Pizza Lobo, where DJ Jerri Manthey joined a Survivor event hosted by ShutUp Queen with Survivor drag queens and a room full of fans ready to celebrate, debate, and process the finale together.

Jason leads a Survivor Quickie, Andrew covers Survivor news from around the world, and the group reviews the final results of their Survivor draft game, where Andrew would like the record to show that he correctly picked the top three. The Daddies also pitch ideas for new twists, idols, and advantages before ending with a little surprise that may lead to a future board game review.

Season 1 · Episode 16

Monday, April 27, 2026 • Duration 01:12:01

This week, the Daddies enter the coop for our review of Flock Together — the cooperative boss battler where brave little chickens team up, level up, and fight off predators before the final season ends.

Andrew, Jason, and Jacob talk through what makes co-op games so fun, what makes them occasionally feel like a group project with dice, and whether Flock Together delivers enough strategy, charm, tension, and table presence to earn a proud Daddy score. Along the way, we celebrate the game’s gorgeous artwork by Andrew Bosley, pitch some deeply unserious celebrity chicken names for future expansions, and take a quick look at board game award season with a few titles that keep popping up on nomination lists.

In this episode:

Why co-op games can feel like chosen family — or a hostage negotiation with snacks
A review of Flock Together and its chicken-fueled boss battles
Andrew Bosley’s artwork, including Everdell, Tapestry, Flock Together, and The Smoking Bones
The Daddies pitch expansion characters including Fowla Abdul, Meryl Cheep, Coop Dogg, Lady Gaggle, and Oprah Wingfrey

Pitching Tents and Feeding Bears: The Parks review featuring Kate

Season 1 · Episode 15

Monday, April 13, 2026 • Duration 01:44:25

The Daddies lace up their imaginary hiking boots and head into the wilderness for a review of PARKS, the stunning board game inspired by America’s national parks. Joined by special guest Kate, a former park ranger, Andrew, Jason, and Jacob dig into the beauty, history, and gameplay behind one of the most beloved modern board games. Along the way, they talk real national park facts, Earth Day, the Pride flag’s connection to nature, Keymaster Games’ commitment to giving back, and why this game feels so much bigger than just collecting tokens on a trail. It is a scenic journey through gorgeous artwork, clever design, and the eternal truth that cardboard nature is often preferable to actual bears.

In this episode:

Special guest Kate joins the Daddies to talk about her real-life experience as a park ranger
A park-themed Quickie with Jason that goes exactly where you think it will
Fun facts about the U.S. National Park System, Earth Day, and the meaning of green in the original Pride flag

(4)X-Rated Daddies: The Voidfall Review

Season 1 · Episode 14

Monday, March 30, 2026 • Duration 01:17:05

This episode is rated (4)X. The Daddies blast off into the world of empire-building, galactic conquest, and one extremely complicated board game with a review of Voidfall — the heavy sci-fi 4X game that took more than nine hours to learn and play. Along the way, the conversation drifts through spring pop culture, Jason’s Quickie turns into an April Fool’s joke on Andrew that nearly backfires, and all three Daddies go from dreading this giant space odyssey to genuinely admiring just how smart, brutal, and satisfying it can be. It is a long journey through stars, suffering, and strategy — but somehow, the Daddies come out the other side surprisingly into it.

In this episode:

A spring pop culture check-in featuring Last One Laughing UK, Survivor 50, Dark Quarter, and even Afroman
Jason’s Quickie and the April Fool’s joke that nearly got away from him
A crash course in 4X games — what the term means, where it came from, and why players love them
The Daddies’ full SERVE review of a game that took more than nine hours to learn and play

Small Box, Big Daddy Energy: The Vibe, Dick Sits & The Queer Agenda Reviews

Season 1 · Episode 13

Monday, March 16, 2026 • Duration 01:11:18

This week, the Gaymer Daddies are going small — and proving that a tiny box can still know how to work a table. Andrew, Jason, and Jacob dive into the world of small box games, from quick card games and portable party titles to compact games with surprising depth. Along the way, the Daddies share their personal top fives, talk about why small games have become such a huge part of modern tabletop, and ask whether games like Cards Against Humanity are really about winning at all — or just making the room lose it.

Then each Daddy spotlights a featured game of his own: Andrew brings The Vibe, a cooperative art-driven game about getting on the same wavelength; Jacob presents The Dick Sits, a cheeky little game with plenty of room for mischief; and Jason shares The Queer Agenda, a proudly queer party game built for chosen family and big laughs. It’s a compact episode full of innuendo, strong opinions, social game philosophy, and proof that some of the most satisfying game nights come in a very small package.

In this episode:

Why small box games are more than just filler
The Daddies’ top five favorite compact games
A chat about Cards Against Humanity, its wild history, and its impact on the hobby
Andrew reviews The Vibe from Jacob Jaskov and Uloomi
Jacob brings the filth with The Dick Sits
Jason shares The Queer Agenda
Big laughs, small boxes, and very Gaymer Daddy opinions

Survivor 50 Bonus Part 2: Drop Your Buffs

Season 1 · Episode 12

Monday, March 2, 2026 • Duration 56:32

The Daddies are back from Tribal with a full reality-TV debrief. From the spectacle of Beast Games to the chaos of The Traitors, the shake-up in Australian Survivor, and of course the premiere week of Survivor 50, it’s been a wild few days in competitive television — and we have thoughts.

After watching the first episodes, Andrew, Jason, and Jacob break down what’s working, what feels dangerous, and who they’re already rooting for (and side-eyeing). Andrew and Jason also take Survivor 50 off the screen and into the streets of Chicago, hunting for one of the hidden immunity idols planted across the country — because watching the game is one thing… playing along is another.

Plus, we check in on the Gaymer Daddies Survivor Fantasy League, and let’s just say… Andrew may already be in trouble. It’s early, alliances are forming, predictions are flying, and this season feels like it could be iconic.

In this bonus episode:

🎬 A reality-TV whirlwind recap: Beast Games, Australian Survivor, The Traitors, and Survivor 50
🏝️ Premiere reactions and early winner energy predictions
🗺️ A real-world Chicago hidden immunity idol hunt
🎲 Survivor Fantasy League standings (Andrew… buddy.)
🔥 Why this season already feels big

The tribe has spoken — and we are just getting started.

So Fond of Clue: The Awkward Guests Review feat. Aaron (Sofonda Booz)

Season 1 · Episode 11

Monday, February 23, 2026 • Duration 02:02:27

Clue isn’t just a board game — it’s a 150-million-copy cultural phenomenon born in wartime Britain, turned cult-classic film, and endlessly reinvented through pop culture crossovers. This month, the Gaymer Daddies welcome special guest Aaron (also known to some as Sofonda Booz) for a full investigation into the history of Clue — from Anthony Ernest Pratt’s 1940s parlor-game inspiration to the 1985 movie with three different endings, to themed editions featuring everyone from Hogwarts to the Golden Girls. We even recast the film for a modern remake and play a game of “Real or Fake Clue Edition.”

Then we examine the modern spiritual successor: Awkward Guests: The Walton Case. Is it Clue evolved? Is it deduction perfected? And when the Daddies present their SERVE scores — Strategy, Elegance, Representation, Voltage, and Ease — our awkward guest becomes judge and jury. Who solved it best? With what argument? And where does this game land on the final Stance?

There is an answer. It is knowable. Press play.

Jason delivers a Survivor-themed Quickie, the tribe swaps first memories and favorite players, and then things get appropriately cutthroat as the Daddies launch their very own Survivor 50 meta-game—drafting players in a snake draft and setting the stage for a season-long watch-party competition. Grab your buff… and try not to get blindsided.

In this bonus episode:
