The Caffeine Addled Monster
“Laddie.” (This completely factual old man was obviously Scottish.) “When it comes to the wee little critter. The Caffeine Addled Monster.” (His thick accent heavily rolled his R’s a lot) “Ye’ have nothin’ to fear.”
September Update
Now personally I love Autumn. Give me crisp mornings and the rich orange and brown colours of leaves to look at and I’m thrilled, not to mention that you get an excuse to start drinking hot chocolate more.
August Update and Anniversary of the Blog!
Well we’re here. It’s August and that means this blog has been going for a year. I’ve said this before but I will say it again (and no doubt many more times in the future) thank you to anyone who reads this and or listens to our shows.
Caffeine Addled Creator Spotlight
Alex is the oldest member of the Caffeine Addled Minds (in age if not membership). He is under the impression he is the C.E.O (although there has never been any formal recognition or vote regarding him ascending to this lofty position).
July Update
The Caffeine Addled Archives are going strong and keeping us all on our toes as we continue to log our thoughts and completely reasonable views regarding David Bowie vs David Attenborough (and yes I did just have to search how to spell his name). Mr. Attenborough I love your work and you are a legendary figure in nature documentaries and broadcasting but that’s a lot of letters to type.
June Update
For those of you who check out our Caffeine Addled Minds podcast feed you may have noticed our next project is up and available to listen to. Addled Archives are posted weekly in theory and the idea is we give voice note updates on what it is like in our lives as a Caffeine Addled Mind, and yes sometimes we end up having voice note debates with one another.
May Update
It’s May and that’s frankly crazy. Did I (being the nerd I am) consider moving the publishing date forwards by one day? Of course, but I didn’t because I’m trying to be consistent and this is in no way a Star Wars blog so it would have been pointless. Do I want to do a Star Wars blog post? Obviously, but there are almost certainly countless ones dedicated to all things Star Wars so I’ll let it slide.
April update
Nutbusters (our actual play podcast) may have finished airing, but we will have more to come out. The CaffeineAddledMinds feed will not remain quiet for long. Nutbusters season two is recorded and editing has begun, however there will be some other none Nutbusters related episodes dropping soon so if you don’t like actual play content then don’t worry, I promise that isn’t the only thing we will be uploading to that feed. (Seriously I’ve been so busy this month I only just had chance to finish the Star Trek DVD’s that arrived during my last post.)
March Update
First for those of you who follow us on Instagram you may have noticed an increase in posts, particularly regarding progress on projects. That’s right we’re actually trying to be better at social media when it comes to promoting our shows but also more importantly for those of you who listened to season one of GNSRadio you may have noticed I posted that Season 2’s script is being written. Well it’s nearly finished and recording is set to begin soon!
February Update
Our actual play podcast Nutbusters is now airing, the first two episodes having dropped last month. You can check it out by searching for our Caffieneaddledminds podcast channel (this is where shows that don’t fall under our main three can be found).
New Year New Blog Post
Well, we’re here in 2026 (though I have started writing this in 2025). I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to go into this year with about as much enthusiasm as I can muster (which is to say I am writing this in my comfy clothes on the sofa instead of at my desk) putting off getting ready to go to work. (I have time).
Caffeine Addled Creator Spotlight
Shannon (Shan) is half of Dude You Good? (Though whether she is the “Dude” or “Good” no one knows), she also voices Babs on our GNSradio podcast, is the voice of Buster Nut in the our new actual play podcast (Nutbusters) and is a member of the Caffeine Addled Minds. She has been a friend of Luke’s for years and when not creating podcast content, is an artist, gamer, horror fan and cat haver to Bandit who also appears on Dude You Good?
December’s Greetings
Here at the Caffeine Addled Minds Headquarters we are well aware that December is a mixed time for some. And hey that’s alright. So I won’t go on and on about all the overly fantasised aspects of this month like some advert full of fake smiles, too perfect food and decorations that in reality would blind you they seem to be so shiny.
Caffeine Addled Creator Spotlight
For those of you who have listened to Dude You Good? You may also be familiar with Luke’s travel habits, often going to interesting countries to walk and take in the scenes, soak in the history and befriend cats while he is locked out of his hotel.
Seriously it happened.
The Season of the Spooks
We like so many other completely normal people out there will be gathering around our gnarled, seasonally appropriate Halloween tree (the best ones, are almost certainly possessed by the soul’s of the lumberjack’s who got killed felling them). Opening presents and avoiding eye contact with the shadowy figure of Sama-Claws, who, as you all know climbs down your chimney like a possessed spider with so many legs that regular spiders get freaked out at the sight.
Dude you Good? episode 50
Well its not every day you get to release your 50th episode for a podcast. However this month one of our shows (Dude You Good?) has made it, some people have also being throwing around questions like: “Wait doesn’t that mean your half way to 100 episodes?”
Welcome to Caffeine Addled News Blog
Caffeine Addled News will be updating you about projects and their releases. Contain sneak peeks at upcoming shows and sometimes interviews with one or more of us. Some of this information may well make it into the Caffeine Addled News Letter, but be sure to check out the blog for more in depth information and sections dedicated to individual topics.
Hello and thank you.
How do you start your first post of a blog? It's actually a hard choice and something I gave a lot of thought, then realised I was overthinking it along with procrastinating.
