And we need your Qs so we can A them.Here's how this works: Leave a comment on this Patreon post with your most pressing query, and we will answer it (unless it's ridiculously gross or personal, and maybe even then).
Examples include:
- Questions about how we make the shows.
- Questions about why we made certain decisions.
- Ask us about particular WOFF! sketches! We love to talk about those.
- Ask us for inane details about daily life.

Where do we go after we die? Interpret 'we' however you like.\

A wealthy relative dies and bequeaths a fortune on the condition that you spend a night in a haunted house of your choice. Which location (real or fictional) do you choose and why?

What game are you most amazed at your childhood self at completing that Adult Gary or Adult Kole would immediately balk at?

The future is here and reality is dead. Media need not be true to exist. Now that we can manipulate anyone into any THING, footage, photos, audio, video, and probably some Tupac hologram shit for all of us soon, what's the absolute worst fate you can imagine your digital dopplegangers put to when the shit hits the fan?

As a podcaster, I sometimes wince at hearing early episodes. What do you find hardest about listening to your old episodes? Audio quality, artistic choices, lack of experience, or something else?

Imagine you have HBO-level money and talent, and five seasons to work with. What does your Fallout series look like? Is it even possible to successfully translate this franchise to film? Or is its essential tone too muddled between sci-fi goofiness and post-apocalyptic self-seriousness to succeed? (Not as a fan-made, web format like Nuka Break, but as a mainstream series like Westworld.)

(This is actually from Greg Polander) As we get older we find ourselves unable to do the things we used to do as well -- playing football, hiking, staying up all night, etc. I never considered that video games might fall into that group. I haven't seen anyone talk about this save for a couple of YouTuber's and I'm curious to hear your thoughts. I'm 42 and have been playing games since I was a kid, but recently I've found myself really struggling at action/platform games that I know I wouldn't have when I was younger, such as Dark Souls and the new God of War. I've already noticed my hand/eye coordination isn't as good as when I was younger, and the 'brutal hard' trend of games these days worries me. Have you guys noticed any decay in your skills or abilities due to age, and do you think developers will add a 'easy' mode in future games as the NES generation gets into middle age or will games continue to be mostly targeted at the 18-34 bracket?

While reading the wonderful Souls of Darkness recently I re-listened to the Bonfireside Chat episode on Garbage Gulch, and hearing all the inventive descriptions about a nonexistent game that relates to all the idiosyncracies of the souls games is just the best thing. After that, I revisited a bunch of other BSC episodes because I was re-playing the DS2 DLCs, and I kept thinking about them as if they were doing the same thing as that Garbage Gulch episode, which was really entertaining. Of course, Souls of Darkness and Atomic! are themselves operating at this very interesting level of media that is about fictional media. Something about all this really tickles my brain - so this may be a rather vague or abstract question, but do you guys have any thoughts about the specific interest or value of media about fictional media? And what might be some other interesting things that you might want to do with this kind of approach if you would have the time?

This has probably been asked before but oh well, how much time do you guys generally have to your selves after all your recording and and neccessary gaming is done? And how do you typically spend it?

In an ideal world where budget was not an issue and potential profit was of no concern, what would be your ideal type of Duckfeed.tv swag to sell and/or give away?
