Episode 424: Not my Monkeys, Not My Circus
July 1st, 2026 | 1 hr 25 mins
Joker, Microsoft, Netflix, Playstation, Sony, Star Wars, TV, Xbox, absolute batman, arkane, blade, bungie, dcu, destiny 2, disney, esa, far cry, gaming, geek, gta 6, gta vi, hasbro, hbo, hbo max, io interactive, james gunn, jesse eisenberg, lizzy kaplan, marathon, minecraft, mojang, movies, nerd, nintendo, nintendo switch, nintendo switch 2, peppa pig, persona, physical media, pixar, playstation 5, quantic dream, ratatouille, sie, sony interactive entertainment, supergirl, tekken, the social network, the sopranos, ubisoft, undead labs, video games, xbox series x
Supergirl or Super girl? We have a full review of Supergirl, does it deserve all the hate? Xbox just unleashed a culling, and really they need to squash the rumors, and stop raising prices. Physical media is king, and we just multiple reasons for that, as the finger can be pointed purely at Sony.

Its time to start your engines, because a new Forza Horizon is out and ready to be driven, and all in the shadow of Mt. Fuji. Plus XBOX may have to go back to exclusives, while PlayStation is ditching PC. HBO gave us our first real look at Lanterns ahead of its August release, and PlayStation is also hoping on the price increase train, as PS+ gets a hike.

Is XBOX back? Its making the right moves, hopefully it sticks to them. PlayStation causes an overhyped uproar, but should we still be worried? Michael dominates the box office, despite not moonwalking the critics, class is out on Gen V at Amazon after 2 seasons. And Sony is exploring a Django & Zorro Team up movie, im all in.

In massive gaming news, and I MEAN MASSIVE! Phil Spencer has retired from Xbox and Microsoft and his #2 Sarah Bond resigned as well, as a questionable new CEO takes the reigns. Plus Sony plans to reboot their wider Spider-manless Spider-verse after its utter collapse, no more morbin time? Mortal Kombat 2 got a Johnny Cage filled trailer and Valve is getting sued by the state of New York and as Jackie Chiles would say: "It's outrageous, egregious, preposterous!"

Well Star Wars fans can continue to argue, because Kathleen Kennedy stepping down certainly wont stop them. But something to stop to listen to, is George RR Martin telling all to the Hollywood Reporter. Plus, Fallout Season 2 is not falling behind season 1, people just don't remember how TV works. Ubisoft decided to lay a big one on the gaming industry by cancelling another Prince of Persia game, and Netflix wants to keep WB movies on the big screen if the merger goes through. That and more on this weeks episode.

One Battle After Another, is what I should rename this podcast, because the movie was that good, and a full review is inside. Plus Xbox takes another self imposed L, Sony gives itself a gold medal, and EA goes private. The Simpsons are headed back to the big screen, and an AI "actress" has Hollywood in a fervor. Plus Forza Horizon is finally headed to the land of the Rising Sun, and Ubisoft gives Assassin's Creed a new home.

Well we've all been waiting for it, Dune is here, and its spectacular. Also Ubisoft is using guerrilla marketing to keep Far Cry relevant. WB is making a smash clone, Halo shows off its stuff, and a new Marvel book exposes the MCU's dirty little secrets.

Episode 103: Its Gonna be MAY!
April 29th, 2020 | 57 mins 6 secs
DC comics, Flight Simulator, Fortnite, MCU, Netflix, Star Trek, Star Wars, TV shows, Universal Studios, arrowverse, cassian andor, dceu, death stranding, disney, disney+, disneyland, far cry, harry potter, hbo max, lego, lego movies, looney toons, movies, nintendo, nintendo switch, pokemon, scoob, system shock, the batman, the mandalorian, the office, thor, travis scott, video games, warner bros, westworld, wwe2k, xbox series x
Nintendo or Nintendont? can you find a switch, cause other people cant. Fortnite drops and album, sorta. Flight Simulator is huuuge. HBO max is coming to a screen near you, Pokemon joins Netflix, Disney+ is uping its star wars offerings, and The Clone Wars is exceptional. More delays in Hollywood, and more announcements are made. Also, you may not be able to visit the magic kingdom for a while.
