For the second half of the podcast we normally chat about a specific topic at length.
Episodes

Episode 314 - Podcast Emergence Day
Our podcast has emerged, much like the locusts on E-day! Are we getting a new Ape Escape, and Uncharted 5? The rumor mill suggests we are. We are also getting Godzilla and Hello Kitty in Sonic CrossWorlds! I beat Control Resonant, and then moved on to beat Toem 2 and Star Wars Galactic Racer. Let...
-
Episode 313 - Activision's Halo
Sadly this week the only news was depressing...again! We talk about the Xbox re-org stuff like Halo going under Activision and all the other dumb and weird stuff they said. Also, Heart Machine laid off most of their employees and may not be able to continue going forward.... Despite the industry...
-
Episode 312 - Level-5 Sucks Now
We return for another glorious episode. Nintendo had TWO directs and Sony had TWO state of plays! I only bothered to take notes on what Nintendo did, but that is irrelevant! We also discuss how Level-5 is so riddled with AI that it's kind of hard to get excited about anything they do going…

Episode 311 - #1 On Netflix
As promised we return with news of Gamescom, but most of it wasn't that exciting! We also discuss the GTA VI reveal and leaks, 2XKO stopping development, and the future of DoubleFine! I played some Star Wars Zero company, but was mostly sucked in to transferring Pokemon from systems of old onto…
more -
Episode 310 - My Amibitions Cannot Be Stopped
We return again to bring you depressing news like layoffs at Halo Studio and Supermassive. Also, to the surprise of no one the EA buyout went through and now they will somehow find a way to be even more morally bankrupt! At least the Kindgom Hearts 4 D23 trailer was sick! I decided to play…

Episode 309 - Remember Blinx
With very little news we make fun of the fact that Blinx the Time Sweeper was one of Xboxs big pulls for backwards compatibility on PC and lament the loss of Double Fine's layoffs. A majority of the episode is us talking about games we played! I beat both Def Jam games on PS2 and then moved back...
-
Episode 308 - Kacho-ON!
The only real news this week was the continued enshitification of Xbox, so before getting to that I bring a bit of levity by talking about the early seasons of Game Center CX I have been watching. Lots of cool insight from the early 2000's. I played Stellar Blade and am on the cusp of beating...
-
Episode 307 - Microsoft's Apocolypse
This one is going up very late as I lost track of time and have been very busy lately. The news will be pretty outdated as we discuss the impending Xbox layoffs which have now happened.
-
Episode 306 - Industry Dying
We are back again to talk more about how the video game industry is crumbling into dust before our very eyes. Xbox specifically is digging their own grave in an attempt for Microsoft to get any value out of them! It sucks! Outside of that I chat about Lost and Found Co. and Matt continues his 7th...
-
Episode 305 - SGF 2026
SGF has descended upon the video game world once again. so we are flooded with news from the PlayStation State of Play, SGF proper, and the Xbox Showcase! So many new games and things to talk about! On top of that I am juggling 5 new releases with Forza Horizon 6, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book,...
-
Episode 304 - Video Games Eve
We go over the little news out there, but it's okay because we know next episode SGF will make way for video game news to wash over us once again. I played very little trying to save myself for the five upcoming releases I need to juggle while Matt played 4 million games on his continued journey...

-
Episode 301 - No News is Good News
We return just days after the previous episode so there was literally no news to talk about. Instead I went way deep into my feelings on Screamer and People of Note!
-
Episode 300 - The Best 150 Games of All Time
Kept you waiting huh!? It's the 300th episode of the podcast! We had to wait a bit longer than usual due to Matt's internet sucking butt and some personal stuff, but we show up refreshed and ready to give you the definitive list of the best 150 games of all time. It's undisputable!

Episode 298 - Happy Retirement Phil Spencer
The video game industry is crumbling around us, so I get a little upset and rant about how dumb Riot and Sony are while also talking about how Microsoft is having the roughest time of all. At least the State of Play was pretty good HUH? I continue to live on my own personal JRPG hell while Matt...
-
Episode 297 - Howdy Partner Direct
I don't even know what I'm naming these anymore. Anyways, there was a Nintendo Partner Direct and it was probably cool if you play the Switch 2 as a portable or haven't played games in the past 5-10 years. So we talk about that! I have become a citizen of Zumeria because I beat Trails Through...
-
Episode 296 - Trails into Nothing
It seems like we talk about how we don't understand what the hell is going on with major video game publishers ever week now and we repeat that here. Weird marketing by Nintendo. whatever the hell Xbox has going on, and Ubisoft restructuring. It's all weird! I decided playing an insanely long…
more -
Episode 295 - Remember the Move
We return for our first regular episode of 2026! Not much news other than some Xbox speculation and wondering what games are actually going to come out this year. I regale you with tales of Power Wash Simulator 2, and Split Fiction while Matt played tons more games from the 7th generation of...

-
Episode 290 - All the Categories Are Bad
It's that time of year where we get upset that genre awards still exist as we talk about how the games in the Game Awards are good, but the categories continue to be absolute dog water and often don't make sense! Then I talk a bunch about Inazuma Eleven Victory Road and dabble a bit in Kingdoms…

Episode 288 - Dangers of Ticket to Ride
This week we learn about the dangers of playing Ticket to Ride with a 9 year old who doesn't fully grasp the rules and Matt teaches us some about modern hockey. Pretty much nothing happened in the news, so Matt explores the joys of NHL 17 while I go off about Pokemon Legends ZA and Ball x Pit!

Episode 287 - Saudi EAbria

Episode 286 - Premium Gaming
Recording on an off day and me forgetting to upload the podcast. Name a more iconic duo! We go over some early TGS news and then talk about how Randy Pitchford should probably just shut up because Borderlands 4 is actually pretty good.
-
Episode 285 - Return of the Virtual Boy
We had to delay almost a week due to life circumstances, but it worked out because Nintendo dropped their largest direct to date right before we recorded. So obviously we talk about that and a bit about some random stuff that happened over the past few weeks. Matt played a bunch of 360 games…
