The D-Pad (podcast)

The D-Pad was a video game-themed podcast and later live web radio show hosted by Rick Desilets, John Selig, Nick Bebel and C/J Haley. It debuted on April 3, 2011 and ran on a weekly schedule for three years, with several hiatuses and format changes occurring during this time. After 130 episodes, The D-Pad ended its run on April 3, 2014 - the third anniversary of the show's debut, with the hosts deciding to shift their focus to their Let's Play channel of the same name. The podcast returned for a special one-off episode in 2016 to celebrate the fifth anniversary of The D-Pad, with Rick, John, C/J and Ben Mooney hosting. Currently, the return of the podcast to a regular weekly schedule is the $500 per month goal on The D-Pad's Patreon account.
