FOR GAMER DADS / AFTER BEDTIME
Too many games. Not enough bedtime.
A podcast for dads who buy games faster than they finish them. We figure out what deserves your next precious hour of play, so your backlog feels less like a cry for help.
01 / THE SHOW
The eternal load screen: what do we play next?
New release, or the game that’s been giving you the side-eye since March? We talk backlogs, new hits, and brutally honest reviews through the lens of a dad who gets maybe one good hour after bedtime. If he’s lucky. He’s rarely lucky.
EPISODES IN PROGRESS. THE BACKLOG, HOWEVER, IS THRIVING.
02 / THE BACKLOG
Pick your next hour. Choose wisely. (You won’t.)
[ 01 ]
Play what you own
Those unfinished games aren’t going to judge themselves. Oh wait. They absolutely are.
[ 02 ]
Chase the hype?
Is the new release actually worth it, or are you just avoiding the 40-hour RPG you bought in 2023?
[ 03 ]
The dad-time verdict
Reviews that answer the only question that matters: is it worth it when you’ve got 45 minutes and one eye open?

04 / ABOUT
We love games. We also have bedtime routines.
Some nights we chase the latest release. Some nights we boot up a game from 2021 and pretend this was the plan all along. Shame Stack is about making those scarce gaming hours count, and laughing at ourselves along the way.
