While there are fun things to talk about, like the Muppets returning, Nintendo directs, the 90s Console wars, and the new Anaconda. There are also not fun things, like Nintendo and Pokémon behind paywalls, HBO and passwords, and The Long Walk. And at the end, a serious discussion about a topic I try to stay away from, but luckily, that's at the end. Enjoy

July 2nd, 2025 | 1 hr 22 mins
Bethesda, Black Panther, Christopher Nolan, F1, Halo, Hulu, Lilo & Stitch, MCU, Matt Reeves, Microsoft, Netflix, Red Dead Redemption 2, Resident Evil, Ryan Gosling, South Park, Spider-Man, Star Wars, TMNT, TV, The Last Jedi, Xbox, amanda waller, amazon, andy weir, assassin's creed black flag, assassin's creed iv, bandai namco, black ops 7, blumhouse, brad pitt, call of duty, capcom, dcu, disney, dr. seuss, ea sports, ea sports college basketball, everwild, eyes of wakanda, f1 the movie, fast and furious, fast x, gaming, gareth edwards, geek, ghost recon, glen powell, halo studios, hbo, hyperkin, ironheart, james gunn, luke skywalker, m3gan 2.0, magic the gathering, mark hamill, matt stone, mephisto, movies, mtg, my hero academia, naughty dog, ncaa basketball, neil druckman, nerd, nintendo, paramount, perfect dark, project hail mary, rare, rdr2, reddit, rockstar games, rogue one, ryan coogler, sam raimi, sonic the hedgehog, spider-man 2, spider-man 3, spider-man no way home, squid game, steam, stephen king, superman, the batman, the bear, the cat in the hat, the initiative, the last of us, the odyssey, the running man, the simpsons, tom clancy, trey parker, turn 10, ubisoft, valve, video games, vin diesel, zenimax online studios
Xbox is always finding rakes to step on, which is ridiculous. After the success for NCAA College football, EA is brining NCAA College Basketball, and no one is shocked. Vin Diesel announces the plan for Fast X part 2, and there's major concerns. Matt Reeves finally finishes the Script for The Batman sequel, and James Gunn gives us who is playing Jor El. Plus a full review for F1 The Movie, which is hands down the best movie of the year so far. That and more on tonight's episode.

Episode 369: A Michael Bay Production
June 4th, 2025 | 1 hr 16 mins
007, Bethesda, EA, Hulu, MCU, Michael Bay, Netflix, Playstation, Ryan Reynolds, Star Wars, TV, The Witcher, Xbox, activision, andor, arc system works, call of duty, call of duty black ops 6, capcom, captain america, captain america brave new world, cd projekt red, cyberpunk 2077, d&d, dcu, disney+, doctor who, epic games, fantastic 4, galactus, gaming, geek, hagrid, happy gilmore, harry potter, hbo, io interactive, james bond, james gunn, king of the hill, knives out, lilo & stich, luke skywalker, mark hamill, marvel games, marvel studios, mission impossible, mortal kombat, movies, nerd, netflix tudum, nick frost, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, peacemaker, people can fly, pokémon, pokémon scarlet, pokémon violet, pragmata, red hulk, sinners, snyderverse, sony state of play, splinter cell, squid game, stig asmussen, stranger things, superman, the witcher 4, ubisoft, unreal, unreal engine, video games, vision quest, warnerbros, xbox handheld, zenimax, zynga
Guess what, there's another reason to question the existence of the PS5 Pro! The Sony Sate of Play was pretty solid today, and its mainly due to the James Bond game trailer. Microsoft pushes back its handheld plans, Nintendo keeps it close to the vest, and Activision has a blunder. Plus Netflix has its Tudum, Mark Hamill shares his future, and thank god we don't live in the Michael Bay Superman Timeline. Plus my review of Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning.
