It’s the end of the year, and the Daddies are checking their lists twice. In this second Gaymer Daddies bonus episode, Andrew, Jason, and Jacob throw out the usual format — no reviews, no Quickie with Jason — and dive headfirst into everything that made 2025 brighter, gayer, and nerdier. From games and pop culture obsessions to guilty pleasures and comfort fandoms, each Daddy shares what got them through a chaotic year.

The Daddies are Turning 19 in Poland as they reveal what earned a spot on their Nice List this year. Jason and Andrew immediately start side-eyeing Jacob’s picks as dangerously delulu, sparking laughs, playful debates, and a fast-moving celebration of joy, questionable taste, and the things worth loving unapologetically.

🎙️ Gaymer Daddies — Episode 7

Three Raccoons in a Trenchcoat: Trash, Trauma & Tabletop Therapy

In this episode, the Gaymer Daddies unzip a very suspicious trench coat and take a closer look at Three Raccoons in a Trenchcoat — a rules-light tabletop role-playing game that blends humor, teamwork, and surprising emotional depth.

Joined by their first-ever guest Charlie, the Daddies talk through what makes TTRPGs special, how Three Raccoons in a Trenchcoat works as a one-shot experience, and what it was like playing their very first live play together. From escaped lab animals and hijacked transportation to an unforgettable lip sync showdown, the conversation covers both the laughs and the lessons learned at the table.

The episode also dives into a meaningful discussion about mental health and board games — exploring how play, storytelling, and shared experiences can support connection, emotional well-being, and a sense of belonging, especially within queer communities.

Whether you’re new to tabletop role-playing games or a seasoned player, this episode is a reminder that sometimes holding it together looks like rolling dice with people who care about you — even if you’re just three raccoons in a trench coat trying your best.

Three Raccoons in a Trenchcoat (with Jamie & Charlie)

What happens when four questionable animals escape a science lab, steal a rickshaw, and somehow end up competing on RuPaul’s Drag Race: All Stars?

This episode, the Gaymer Daddies dive headfirst into their first-ever live play TTRPG with Three Raccoons in a Trenchcoat — a rules-light tabletop role-playing game built on teamwork, creativity, and pretending to be something you’re definitely not.

Joined by special guests Jamie and Charlie, the Daddies step into the paws, wings, and questionable decision-making skills of a raccoon, a squirrel, a pigeon, and a possum as they attempt to pass as a “real adult,” navigate a world that wasn’t built for them, and absolutely commit to the bit.

Expect improvised storytelling, unexpected emotional beats, ridiculous problem-solving, and one truly unforgettable runway performance.

No prior TTRPG experience required — just grab a seat at the table and enjoy the ride.

🎧 Trash is temporary. Friendship is forever. And the trench coat? Questionable at best.

Welcome back to Gaymer Daddies, where the competition’s cosmic, the laughter’s stellar, and someone’s always drifting off-course.

In Episode 5, the Daddies blast off into SETI: The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence — a deep-space Eurogame where logic meets laughter and Andrew’s tongue gets tied… twice. Between Jason quizzing the Daddies on the mysterious importance of “6–7,” Jacob’s questionable relationship with Patootie the Clown, and Andrew’s fury over suspiciously low scores, this mission quickly spirals into intergalactic chaos.

🛸 Can Andrew recover from his cosmic slip-ups?

🛸 Will Jason’s “Quickie” reveal the meaning of 6–7?

🛸 And what is Jacob doing with Patootie the Clown?

Tune in for board games, banter, and a few moments that are truly out of this world.

The Daddies are back from Philadelphia—sleep-deprived, over-caffeinated, and somehow still arguing about bathroom schedules. In this special convention episode, Andrew, Jason, and Jacob unpack their weekend at PAX Unplugged 2025: the games they played, the queer-friendly spaces they loved, and why board-game conventions mean so much to this community.

Expect history, hilarity, and heart as the Daddies trace the roots of gaming cons from Gary Gygax’s first Gen Con to today’s global gatherings like Essen Spiel. They share favorite demos, con tips, fangirl moments, and reflections on representation—from Tabletop Gaymers ribbons to the inclusive spirit of PAX Together.

🎲 Highlights:

• The chaotic charm of “A Quickie with Jason”
• The origin story of modern board-game conventions
• PAX Unplugged 2025 recap: Magical Athlete, River of Gold, and SETI
• Why queer visibility at cons matters more than ever

Welcome back to Gaymer Daddies, where the competition’s fierce, the laughter’s loud, and someone always gets burned — sometimes by lava, sometimes by shade.

In Episode 3, the Daddies revisit a childhood classic turned comeback hit: Fireball Island from Restoration Games! We talk nostalgia, marbles of chaos, and what happens when a “simple roll-and-run” turns into a fight for survival. Expect laughter, betrayal, and a few scorched feelings as the Daddies battle lava, luck, and each other.

🔥 Can Andrew survive a trip to Santorini with Jacob? 🔥 Will Jason ditch the island to ride on the Hello Submarine? 🔥 And will anyone make it off the island alive?

In Episode 2, we unpack what makes someone a Daddy (and discover Jacob may, in fact, be a Grand-Daddy). Then, we dive into Gay Sauna, a cheeky board game of seduction, sabotage, and strategy that’s as wild as it sounds.

Andrew’s still trying to process the trauma of Jacob stealing José before the lights came on—but it’s all part of the fun in the sauna.

🎲 Games, laughter, and questionable choices—just another day with the Daddies.
