Episode 41 Back From The Dead!
This is a bit awkward, isn’t it? It’s been, what, a full year just about? Please excuse the cobwebs, dust, and rust on our podcast. It’s been a long time coming, but we’ve missed this. Life took us in different directions for a while there, but we managed to find our way back. To new viewers, we...

Episode 40! Dead Spacier (Dead Space Remake)
We are whole again. Welcome to episode 40; not only is this a nice round number of a milestone, but we are talking about the Dead Space remake. As some of you may know, we talked about the original Dead Space way back in Episode 2, the first game we ever reviewed. In a way, this is a remake for...

Episode 39 Awfully Irish Guest Gerard Eady
Today is a special day, folks. This episode marks the first time we have ever had a guest on our humble podcast. He is an up-and-coming streamer. He has been a part of a number of podcasts and is an 8-time back-back World Champion archer. He essentially is far more interesting than Jerry, and I...

Episode 37 Into the Squanch-verse
What up my glip glops?! Today we dive into Squanch Studio games, inspired heavily by the Rick and Morty style; which in turn has inspired our very own podcast title and logo. But we also catch up with each other as it’s been well over a month since our last recording. We talk about what we did...

Episode 36 Tin Foil Hat Time
*cues X-Files* We have such things to tell you! Well, not super crazy things, but interesting for sure. Welcome back, everyone. Today we jump into Jerry’s side of things and have him tell us some “tame” conspiracies that are out there. We’re dipping our toes into this topic, nothing that insane,...

Another fitting topic for Spooktober: our favorite horror video games. Yes, how original, I know. But this is a special occasion, for Jerry and I have finally met up and recorded in person. We had a blast, and we hope you can tell. We go over the best horror-themed games we’ve played and mention…

Episode 32 God of War 2
Firstly, apologies for the late upload; life happens but this has inspired us to make some contingency plans in the event this happens again because surely it will. Anyway, today we follow up the last episode this week with God of War 2. Highly regarded as one of the greatest PS2 games of all…

Episode 31 God of War
Behold, the God of War! A true masterpiece! I do hate that now I need to clarify this is about the PS2 game since the exact same can be said about the 2018 game. What a nice problem to have. Anyways, we are very excited to talk about an absolute classic game and a rare scenario where the…

Episode 30 Stray AKA What's Up With The Sewers?
Psppspsp. Another small milestone for 2UB (it’s gonna be a thing) as we have hit #30! And we have slightly improved since we’ve begun! For this episode, we’ll be focusing on the internet’s new favorite game: Stray. You play as a cat; what more can you ask for? However, for this review, we take a...

Episode 29 Controversial Video Games Part 2...Electric Boogaloo
Well, we survived our first walk into the minefield of controversy, so we decided to test our luck again and see if, this time around we set off a bomb. To be honest, compared to the last list we discussed, these games are relatively tame . . . relatively being the operative word. We aren’t...

Episode 28 P.T. and the Death of Silent Hills
I talked. I could do nothing but talk. And then, I saw me talking in front of myself. But it wasn’t really me. Watch out. The gap in the audio . . . it’s a separate reality. The only me is me? Are you sure the only you is you? 204863. We are incredibly excited to share with you today’s topic…

Episode 27 Canceled Video Games
Guess who’s back . . . back again . . . Jerry’s back . . . tell a friend. Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Welcome back to the show brother; all's right with the world now. Quick disclaimer: the first half hour of this episode is a quick bow-wrapping of the last episode and an unfortunate injury...

Episode 26 Duke Nukem Forever & The Fall Of 3D Realms
Today we dive into the infamous Duke Nukem Forever game and its troubled development. However, instead of Jerry and I ranting, it’ll be me ranting and my fiancee listening intently. Due to a family emergency, Jerry was unable to record with me and so in order for us to have an episode come out on...
-
Episode 25 Stories Untold (Spoiler Warning!!!)
Before we get started, this episode features heavy spoilers for the game Stories Untold. We’ve reached the quarter-century episode! To mark the occasion, we start off with a special announcement regarding yours truly, Jacob. And if you’re not interested in that (rude), then hopefully you’ll be…

Episode 24 Freshly Squeezed Summer Time Bois (Rambling Episode)
It’s Summer time baby! Sadly for the vast majority of adults that really doesn’t mean much other than you will receive no reprieve from your children. Still, I’ve got a vacation planned at the beach soon and as a result, don’t have time to research a specific game/topic. So please enjoy Jerry and…

Episode 23 Video Game Shared Universes
What is this, a crossover episode?! While the world of gaming may not be able to compare to the MCU or DC Universe, there are still plenty of interesting examples of games potentially sharing a world with different franchises. Some are obvious, such as GTA and Red Dead. Others seem like a…

Episode 22 Controversial Games Part 1
Last episode we got a little weird with it; well this time around, we’re going full-frontal, in your face controversial. And I’m not talking about “Oh, I didn’t like this story decision or character arc.” I mean the games that have sparked real-life discussions and controversies and make us...
-
Episode 21 Inscryption
We’re getting a little weird with it in today’s episode and reviewing a more recent game: Inscryption. A fun little aspect of this review is this is the first time Jerry and I have had very different opinions on a game we’ve talked about. It just goes to show that you can still be friends with...
-
Episode 20 Spec Ops: The Line
Welcome to Episode 20! To celebrate this little event, we ask ourselves this question: do we feel like heroes yet? Sounds ominous huh? Well that’s because today we are reviewing one of Jerry’s all-time favorite games Spec Ops: The Line. This game flew under the radar partially due to its…

Episode 18 Max Payne 3
A special edition of 2UB (is that hip?) as Jerry & I are together in person for this episode! A bittersweet feeling as we wrap up Max Payne with the 3rd and final game; one of the top games we’ve wanted to review since deciding to start this podcast. There was so much plot-wise to go over as...

Episode 16 Max Payne Movie (2008)
We continue with the Max Payne franchise but not with the 3rd installment (coming soon); instead we look at the 2008 film adaptation with Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis. If you have listened to the previous episodes (you should tsk tsk) or have heard anything about this movie, then you probably…

Episode 15 Max Payne 2: The Fall Of Max Payne
Today we dive into Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne but instead of a witty description I’d like to get serious for a moment. We recently crossed 100 total listens on Spotify and while this is an extremely small number in the grand scheme of things, it is a huge feat for Jerry and I and we are...
-
Episode 14 Max Payne
The light of the computer monitor pierced through the darkness of my office, a beacon calling to me. . . or was it a warning? I stumbled my way to the desk, head pounding, trying to come up with a description reminiscent of that of a noir-monologue. It ain’t like in the movies, kid. My eyes…

Episode "Lucky" #13 F.3.A.R.
We finally reach the conclusion of the F.E.A.R. series. To think it was almost 10 years ago where we played this on prom night; look I know how that sounds but there is really not a much better way to phrase that. Our main memories involve the co-op modes but how does the campaign of F.3.A.R.…

Episode 12 Our Week In Gaming/What We've Been Up To
The break continues from F.E.A.R. (next episode I swear) and we have another week in review chat. Jerry got the new Oculus Quest and beat Far Cry 6. I have done neither of those! This is the calm before the storm I believe, creatively speaking, and I know I speak for both of us when I say we are...
-
Episode 11 Gaming Controllers and Controller Schemes
We take a break from the F.E.A.R. series today to focus on the evolution of video game controllers and their layouts. And I’m talking about from the beginning, like 1940’s! We approach from both an academic perspective and our personal history. Not gonna lie, talking about this definitely made us...
-
Episode 10 F.E.A.R. 2
They say getting to 10 episodes is a huge milestone in a podcast. I don’t know who they are or what power they yield but I think they’re right. It is insane to think it’s already been around 2.5 months since we started this. So what timing that we are talking about F.E.A.R. 2, Jerry’s favorite of...
-
Episode 9 F.E.A.R. 1
Forget Everything About Reviews. This is the only place you need to get your gaming review fix! See what I did there? Okay, I’ll see myself out. As you may have guessed, we discuss F.E.A.R. this episode and will focus on its sequels in the coming weeks. Certainly an interesting series, what does...
-
Episode 8 Our Week In Gaming (Re-upload)
A week in review … Better than saying we didn't have a solid premise but ignore that man behind the curtain! We talk about the GTA Trilogy remaster (and remasters/remakes in general), what we've been up to the past few days, and what plans we have for future episodes. This is what the pilot…

Episode 7 Emotional Moments in Video Games
We return to our originally scheduled program with this episode focusing on games that elicited strong emotions from us. Whether they tugged on our heartstrings, made us boil over with rage, or just left us feeling empty, we relive those moments and hopefully do so while holding it together.…

Episode 6 Horror Movies
Today we do something a little different: horror movies. While our main passion is gaming we also love a good (and especially bad) horror movie. Which movies have spooked us and/or ruined our childhood? Join us as we take a walk down our own personal Elm Street and look back at some of our…
more -
Episode 5 Overhyped and Underhyped Games
We all have those games that left us feeling empty and wanting more. Whether it be an interesting premise let down by poor writing, buggy gameplay, lack of content, or just insanely high expectations, we've all been let down. On the flip side, games have come out of nowhere and given us a nice...

Episode 4 Dead Space 2 and 3
Looks like the marker has taken our minds, as we are unable to quit talking about the Dead Space series. Come join us in the Church of Unitology as we praise Altman and go through our thoughts on the masterpiece that is Dead Space 2....and Dead Space 3. Thanks for listening! -Jacob and Jerry AKA…

Episode 3 PS3 Era Greats
The PS2 era was our childhood, but our formative years and stronger memories are in the PS3 generation. Listen to us reminisce about video games from our high school years (high school sucked but the games were good at least) and join us in the delights of nostalgia. Thanks for your continued...
-
Episode 2...Dead Space
With the recent announcement of a remake, we decide to look back and review one of our favorite games of the PS3 era: Dead Space. Has the marker poisoned our minds or does Dead Space really deserve to be so fondly remembered and warrant another go-around? Take a pamphlet on Unitology with the 2...

Episode 1 Pilot
2 best friends decide to record a podcast with little to no preparation. The love for each other and gaming is there, but is it enough to overcome the jitters? (Look it's a mess but it'll get better I promise.) We talk about our favorite games/memories and what we hope to accomplish with this...
