Music to My Ears: City Ruins (NieR: Automata)

October 16, 2017November 21, 2017 Chris

Now that I no longer have a broken PS4, I’m trying to play catch-up on several of the heavy hitters the console has produced this year. It was a coin flip on whether NieR: Automata or Horizon: Zero Dawn would … Continue reading Music to My Ears: City Ruins (NieR: Automata)

My Favorite Life Simulation Video Games

October 3, 2017April 15, 2025 Michaela

I have two sad confessions to make: the first is in regards to The Sims. The Sims franchise, by and large, is the face of the life simulation video game genre. Being able to raise families and build homes and … Continue reading My Favorite Life Simulation Video Games

Music to My Ears: Main Theme (Ys VIII)

October 2, 2017October 16, 2017 Chris

We’ve given the Legend of Heroes series plenty of love, so why not spend a moment today on another underappreciated JRPG franchise with the phenomenal Falcom Sound Team jdk providing the soundtrack? Ys is Falcom’s most successful property, an action-based … Continue reading Music to My Ears: Main Theme (Ys VIII)

A Bit of News: Blogging and Zelda Informer

October 1, 2017 Michaela

I don’t normally go into decently personal content here on Objection Network, but I wanted to share some news. I’ve been following Zelda Informer pretty consistently for a long time now, and not long ago, they had a call for … Continue reading A Bit of News: Blogging and Zelda Informer

NBA 2K18, and How Microtransactions Lost a Customer

September 25, 2017December 17, 2017 Chris

Sports video games have the reputation of being little more than roster updates and a couple new features on an annual basis. NBA 2K18 decided to break from this mold in a new and horrifying way — by completely breaking … Continue reading NBA 2K18, and How Microtransactions Lost a Customer

The Fall Video Game Lookahead, 2017 Edition

September 21, 2017November 6, 2017 Chris

Each year, the summer comes and goes and we hurtle head-first into fall. Usually that means a full slate of upcoming games that I’m extremely interested in picking up. That’s not the case this year, and I think it’s strange. … Continue reading The Fall Video Game Lookahead, 2017 Edition

My Top 5 Favorite Animated Short Films

September 17, 2017 Michaela

Short films are pretty common features that accompany blockbluster animated films (or so it seems when I looked up shorts online and realized just how many there are), and yet I  don’t think I’ve really come to appreciate them until … Continue reading My Top 5 Favorite Animated Short Films

Where Has Fire Emblem: Warriors Gone Wrong?

September 5, 2017August 23, 2018 Michaela

When Fire Emblem: Warriors was first announced earlier this year, I remember being really excited. After all, I adored Hyrule Warriors Legends, from the rich cast of characters to the diverse combat styles every single character had, I sunk so … Continue reading Where Has Fire Emblem: Warriors Gone Wrong?

Gray Areas

Gray Areas is a pop culture extravaganza with a live weekly podcast every Thursday night, daily Let's Play videos, and a bevy of old blog posts for your enjoyment.

The current crew includes Chris, Dave and Shaun, who have been there since the beginning, and Cody, who joined in 2021. We also have other contributors like Michaela who chip in from time to time.

We cover everything from video games, anime and movies to music, books and idiots in the news.

This whole thing was started as At the Buzzer in February 2011, the brainchild of three men desperate for attention. It became Objection Network in 2017 and then this in 2024. It’s slightly related to an old Flagstaff radio show from 2008, kinda like how Frasier was slightly related to Cheers. In other words, we're all getting old and it's a little depressing.
