BGMania B-Sides: Guns of Fury
BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast
BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast is a video game music and discussion show where we never play the same track more than once... or at least try not to! Every Wednesday and several Sundays, Bryan & Bedroth (and Kyle once a month) from RPGera present a selection of VGM for your listening pleasure based on a theme, series, composer, individual game, or an eclectic mix with Radio Hour to close each month! We also have A Musical Review, which is our version of reviews for new release games. Bedroth also presents BGMania B-Sides twice a month, which is a smaller focus on a particular game. We hope you’ll join us on this musical adventure. Trust us.. this is not your typical VGM-related podcast!

Episode #366 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. This week on the show, Bryan and Bedroth from RPGera take a trip down to the local pub and rack 'em up for a game of Billiards! The guys also discuss the big Nintendo Switch 2 news at the very beginning of the show. This was a last-minute substitution for an episode Kyle usually would have been a part of, but he'll be back on the show next month as scheduled! Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or whatever you want! Special thanks to our Executive Producers: Jexak, Xancu, & Jeff.
