Welcome to the
Gluten Free Gaming Cafe
We're Lynn and Kelsey - just a couple geeks who play video games and drink coffee.
We've been playing video games on the internet in various forms since 2016. You may have known us as OkoCNella and GeekishlyApropos when we streamed separately, as Merry Happy Timezone when we first went co-op, or you may be just now meeting us via the Gluten Free Gaming Cafe and GFG After Dark.In our 10th year as content creators we've decided to PIVOT (yes, say it like Ross) and move to YouTube and a Let's Play format. We started streaming back in the day with big goals and dreams, but we discovered some things along the way that lead us here-
Working 40-hour jobs and live streaming full time just isn't feasible.
We enjoy having free time and not revolving our lives around constant content creation.
Live streaming is hard work. We love it, but we've learned in our ripe old age of early 40s that it just might not be our thing anymore; however, we still absolutely love playing video games and making people laugh.
Lynn
I'm an eclectic individual who's overly enthusiastic about analog synthesizers, Gunpla, Lucas Arts adventure games, and how-it's-made videos.
Hours of Operation
We're big believers in having a good work-life balance. It's important to maintain our sanity and not lose ourselves in creating content. So, as much as we'd like to stream more often, we keep a limited schedule to avoid getting overwhelmed and burnt out. We don't want to lose our love of streaming.
Shorts: Every Monday - Friday
Let's Play: Every Tuesday & Thursday
Videos always go live at 5pm CST
Charity
We've been privileged with good health, we own a home, and we haven't been discriminated against. Everyone deserves that so we try to help where we can.Over the last decade we've participated in fundraising campaigns for various causes.We're currently taking a fundraising hiatus due to life lifing. We give to charities and organizations out of our own pockets in the meantime.
