We were lucky enough to run into Tommy Tallarico on the show floor of Fan Expo 2010 last weekend. The noted game music composer and former co-host of The Electric Playground and Reviews on the Run was at the convention to give a speech about video game composing and his latest project, Video Games Live.

Tommy certainly takes the cake when it comes to his dork shelf, or rather his dork house! From his life-size Han Solo in carbonite, to his Spider-Man room and full scale dinosaurs, he has definitely got most of us beat in the collectible department.

Podcast 1 Season 2:
Skinny John Goodman

Zack joins Jeff and Will for his first Dork Shelf Podcast. The first half of the show finds the three talking about Transformers games both old and new, Super Mario Galaxy 2 and the reasons they prefer certain consoles over others.

They rant about Scott Pilgrim vs. The World having its world premiere in Montreal and they rave about HBO’s Treme, despite the fact that its actually kind of boring. The group then proceeds to make fun of Will because he went to see the new Twilight movie and then happily discusses Cyrus and Toy Story 3. Continue reading →
