Episode 422: Stepping on rakes again
June 18th, 2026 | 54 mins 16 secs

Xbox can't help itself; it finds rakes out of nowhere to step on, and its all self-inflicted. There won't be any trips in the Tardis anytime soon, and who is to blame? George Miller wants to sell Mad Max, but why? And Fox buys Roku, which feels oddly familiar.

I just may, whaddya say? Comic-Con came and went this year, and maybe because the MCU and DCU were so muted, but there were still some good announcements. Xbox says game pass revenue is up, so is it profitable? Wolfenstein is heading to TV, and EA says no to $80. Air Bud is returning and I have serious questions, South Park takes time in its return, Star Trek goes all in on Comic Con, plus reviews of Happy Gilmore 2 and Fantastic Four!

I’m not a regular talk show host. I’m a cool talk show host, is what I would say if I were Space Ghost, RIP to George Lowe. Pokémon finally gave us an update Pokémon Legends Z-A, plus what looks like a successor to Pokémon Stadium. Activision is in some hot water over AI again, but might win back hearts with Tony Hawk and Verdansk. Plus Shrek 5 ruffles some feathers, Kathleen Kennedy isnt going anywhere, and the Oscars make some surprises.

Two of our biggest stories this week are making the internet collectively ask...Make it make sense. And guess what, I'm joining them. What is Xbox's strategy, and why is it so ever changing lately. Also how did we kill cable, only for it to come back. Plus Nintendo still doesn't want to talk about the Switch 2. Also the Office is coming back, so of course that's what we get in the hellscape of 2024. But I swear its a fun episode...come and take a listen.

What happens when all the major studios pull out of comic con? nothing really, it keeps going because comic con is more then movies and television. We also learned about some major Ubisoft shakeups, kart racers are making a comeback, and Sony's Project Q leaks. Plus Barbenheimer makes for the 4th biggest box office weekend, MOVIES are in fact back! Also due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA and WGA Strikes, i have dedicated some time talking about old movies, this week we have my favorite movies made in the 1950's.

DC, Dungeons & Dragons, E3, EA Games, Lucasfilm, MCU, Netflix, Spider-Man, Star Trek, Star Wars, TV shows, Xbox, across the spider-verse, activisionblizzard, aegon's conquest, amazon prime video, ark 2, ark: survival evolved, asus, ballerina, barbie movie, blue beetle, captain america, cd projekt red, chris evans, chris pratt, clone high, dcu, disney, disney+, donald glover, dreamworks, dungeons & dragons: honor among thieves, e3 2023, fantastic 4, frank grillo, game of thrones, games with gold, gaming, god of war: ragnarok, harry potter, hbo, illumination, jack black, james gunn, john wick chapter 4, joker: folie a deux, keanu, lando calrissian, lilo & stich, lizzo, lord of the rings, marvel studios, minecraft, moana, movies, netflix gaming, nlrb, paddington bear, payday, pennywise, pokemongo, scott pilgrim, scott pilgrim vs. the world, secret invasion, seth rogan, shrek, shrek 5, sonic the hedgehog, star fleet academy, starbreeze, stephen king, street fighter, the mandalorian, the rings of power, the rock, the super mario bros movie, the thunderbolts, video games, welcome to derry, xbox live
What are you doing in my swamp, because Shrek 5 is closer then you think. E3 is cancelled, and probably forever if we believe the games media. Scott Pilgrim is returning to our screens, and with the same cast as the movie. The Mandalorian brings the cameos and make sure to stick around because we will have a review of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
