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.

Nintendo continues to beat its on drum, as we saw on full display at the newest Direct, and did we get our first footage of a game running on the next switch? Elden Ring hits a major milestone before its DLC release, and Todd Howard gets candid. They Boys and House of the Dragon return and hit the ground running.

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.

X-Men 97 is robbing us all of the cake, well, maybe, at least that is what the trailer is telling us. Marvel is also looking to dump Kang and his council, while DC is not printing money and is avoiding a Batman Beyond movie. How the could fumble the bag that much is beyond me. Also XBOX clarifies its future, and dumped water all of the nonsense fires that were burning on twitter. Nintendo dropped a direct, and with it the return of one of the best Star Wars games :Star Wars Battlefront II from 2005! That and more come take a listen.

Will Tina Fey take over Saturday Night Live? I think Lorne Michaels hopes she does. Plus the Halo Battle Royale was almost real, despite 343 always saying they wouldn't make one. Plus the Emmys happened, and The Bear, Beef, and Succession all walked away as winners. That and more on this weeks Nick's Nerd News.
