The Final Moo
Fri, 18 Jan 2019

In our final episode of the show, we discuss the ways to say goodbye to the things we love, and how to support yourself and others as they go through the pain of losing something dear to them.

Thank you for 6 years and 300 episodes, TTT family. We are so deeply grateful for your support and love throughout the years, and it’s been our honor to create these shows to connect with you and make us all feel like we’re not alone in the things we deal with as Blizzard gamers.

/moo, Jules and Marconin

Sounds Like Shortbread
Sun, 28 Jun 2015

6.2 has arrived! Our first impressions, Marconin’s new mount news, and the official announcement of Well Played, a party being presented at BlizzCon 2015! Our discussion question: The aging of gamers - as the first generation of gamers continues to age, what will it look like 20-30 years from now? Will it be accepted that we’ll be gaming as retirees? Our Think Tank question: I have a guild member who is the first to criticize, cause trouble, and talk down everything we do, and the first to accept credit when our guild gets recognized for its successes. How can I handle this as a guild leader?  Be a part of the show by sending your Tell Us One Thing questions, feedback, and requests for advice to questions@taurenthinktank.com.

The Perks Without The Works
Sun, 21 Jun 2015

Marconin acquired a bunch of new mounts this week and Jules has some preliminary BlizzCon party news! Our discussion question: Has anyone ever used their experience as raid leader or guild leader on a resume or job application? Will there ever be a time where this experience is applicable? Our Think Tank question: I’m in a dead guild. I want to have people around me again, but I’m not a leader or someone who likes recruiting. What would you do if you were me?

Even The Mountain Falls
Sun, 14 Jun 2015

Marconin’s running old raids with some new buddies, and Jules has the Heroes fever on this latest episode! Our discussion question: Why do standardized tests have so much weight in determining our future for success in school?  Our Think Tank question: I’m the one who always helps everyone with advice, support and a kind word, but I can’t let myself ask for help. It gets so bad that I want to scream, cry, smash my head against a wall, or worse. What can I do?

One Stop Moo Shop
Sun, 07 Jun 2015

New mounts to share, new boss kills to report, and an unintentionally-supersized show, just for you! Our discussion question: What can do I to keep the racist, sexist, and offensive behavior in Trade Chat, and people who kill NPCs for fun from negatively impacting my WoW experience? Our Think Tank question: I’m getting treatment for very vivid thoughts of walking up to strangers and killing them. I have a girlfriend who I want to be honest with, but she’s never seen me at my worst. How can I talk to her about this?

Loot and Kumbaya
Sun, 31 May 2015

There’s some big news to share for Cat on Fire and Marconin is doing his best Orc peon impression...in real life. Our discussion question: I’ve found my passion of being a stand-up comedian, but my two jobs leave me with no time to actually practice in open-mic nights. At what point do you decide to put your dream on hold, or should you just throw caution to the wind and go for it? Our Think Tank question: My raiding group has a problem team member, but the dynamics of our cross-server, multi-guild raid composition makes it difficult for her behavior to be addressed, and she keeps acting out. Should I stand aside or get involved? Be a part of the show by sending your Tell Us One Thing questions, feedback, and requests for advice to questions@taurenthinktank.com. Slash Moo, everybody!

Too Much Spirit For My Face
Sun, 24 May 2015

It’s a holiday weekend, but for poor Marconin, it’s a long... weekend.  Check out this episode for 5 minutes of thoughts about no flying in Draenor, and for Marconin’s story on how he hurt himself playing trombone. Our discussion question: Have you ever had a time when you felt your life lacked purpose? What did you do to get past it? Our Think Tank question: We have a transgender woman on our team, and though the team is accepting, we sometimes slip up and refer to her as “he” or him” without meaning to. How do we get more comfortable as a team when we accidentally mix up gender pronouns?

Mine Got Melty
Sun, 17 May 2015

It’s our 3-year anniversary, and we’re celebrating with some fun segments - Tell Me A Story and the return of the Taste Tanks with Japanese Kit Kats! Our discussion question: When I get rejected by people I want to date, I just put it aside and don’t really care about it much. Is this okay to do? Our Think Tank question: I suffer from 30+ suicidal ideations per day, but I’ve found a way to manage it on my own because I can’t go to therapy. Is this a good idea?

Podcaster, Not Poultry
Sun, 10 May 2015

We’re back after the Minnesota Meetup - lots to share and update you on! Our discussion question: Do you feel that people seek out compliments and praise from others because our society is so reluctant to give praise to others? Why is this? Our Think Tank question: My wife cheated on me, and I’m trying to get past the sadness for myself and my daughter. I love her and want to be with her, but I feel like I’ve failed at everything. What advice do you have for me? Be a part of the show by sending your Tell Us One Thing questions, feedback, and requests for advice to questions@taurenthinktank.com. Slash Moo, everybody!

Just Say Thank You
Sun, 26 Apr 2015

Raiding, gold-making, and leveling...and advice! Our discussion question: I bought my first BlizzCon ticket! I’m attending alone and I’m nervous about not knowing anyone. What can I do to feel more comfortable? Our Think Tank question: Is it necessary to be a jerk to be a raid leader? My teammates are leaving because our leader makes the experience uncomfortable.  Be a part of the show by sending your Tell Us One Thing questions, feedback, and requests for advice to questions@taurenthinktank.com.

Hellfire Hotdogs
Sun, 19 Apr 2015

Marconin has a mount-collector’s milestone to share on this week’s show! Our discussion question: I want to find my passion but I don’t know how. I think I really enjoy PvP but I don’t think I’m entertaining enough to stream or do a podcast. How do I look for a passion? Our Think Tank question: The person hired as our plant manager is causing harm to our company. I have the pull to get him demoted but I don’t want to make anyone angry. What should I do?  Be a part of the show by sending your Tell Us One Thing questions, feedback, and requests for advice to questions@taurenthinktank.com. Slash Moo, everybody!
