Star Trek has been boldly going for 60 years, but Paramount seems to make us want to forget that. Link has been rescuing Zelda for 40 years, and this year he will be doing it all over again, as we discuss the Nintendo Direct. Don't signal for rescue, because Mayday was a lot better than expected, and Star Wars is heading to a 70mm not near you. And we finally know what Godzilla Minus Zero is really about.

Episode 429: Small Potato Stuff
August 5th, 2026 | 1 hr 19 mins
70mm, AMD, Christopher Nolan, Dungeons & Dragons, EA, EA Games, God of War, Lucasfilm, MCU, Playstation, Sony, Spider-Man, Star Wars, TV, WoW, Xbox, activision, barbie, black ops 1 & 2, blade, booster gold, call of duty, call of duty black ops, clueless, dave bautista, dcu, disney, disney+, dnd, elden ring, final fantasy vii, from software, game of thrones, gaming, geek, george rr martin, gpu, henry cavill, imax, james may, jeremy clarkson, kratos, midnight club, moana, movies, nerd, nvidia, oded fehr, paramount+, pif, pokemon, ps5, ram, richard hammond, rockstar games, samsung, sony columbia pictures, sony interactive entertainment, sony pictures, spider-man brand new day, squareenix, steam, steam machine, the grand tour, the mandalorian, the mummy, the odyssey, tiktok, valve, video games, walt disney pictures, warhammer, warhammer40k, warnerbros, wonder man, world of warcraft, x-men
Spider-Man swung back into theaters, and it did exactly what we knew it would. The question is though, was it good? The RAMageddon becomes the RAMpocalypse, as it comes for every component, and will continue forever. Black Ops 1 & 2 jump the sales charts, and EA goes private. Meanwhile we should have listened to Wesley when he said he was the only Blade.

Episode 427: Zeus's Law
July 22nd, 2026 | 1 hr 6 mins
70mm, AI, Bethesda, DC, Doctor Doom, Donkey Kong, Fallout, God of War, Hulu, MCU, Matt Damon, Playstation, Ryan Reynolds, Sony, Star Wars, TV, Tom Cruise, Warhammer 40k, Xbox, a24, activision, amazon prime video, aston martin, avengers, avengers doomsday, backrooms, bungie, call of duty, chrisotpher nolan, clayface, coleman domingo, days of thunder, dcu, deadpool, disney, eBay, fallout 5, gamestop, gaming, geek, grand theft auto 6, gta 6, harada, hoppers, imax, infinity ward, jason bourne, knights of the old republic, kotor, kratos, lego, marathon, marvel comics, marvel studios, modern warfare 4, movies, nerd, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, obsidian entertainment, paramount pictures, physical media, pixar, playstation 5, pokemon, pokemon go, roblox, robocop, saber interactive, space marine 2, starfield, tekken, the elder scrolls, the elder scrolls 6, the odyssey, the princess and the frog, the x-files, toy story 5, video games, walt disney pictures, warhammer, warner bros
If you are looking for a review of the odyssey, you wont find it here, but we have other exciting news. Like Disney cuts Pixar staff, even after making a billion dollars. Or Is Nintendo justified in telling consumers to stuff it after tariff refunds? PlayStation ain't budging on ditching discs, and some sales numbers back them up. But hey, at least we got a trailer for Avengers Doomsday!

Episode 425: The Console Wars?
July 8th, 2026 | 1 hr 11 mins

XBOX finally reveals its reset, as the Sony fallout continues. Are the console wars back on, or are we marching to a collapse. Jackass: Best and Last is definitely the last, but is it the best? The Emmy nominees are out, Hollywood shifts to gaming, and what's is going on with Fast & Furious?

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.

Episode 422: Stepping on rakes again
June 18th, 2026 | 54 mins 16 secs
DC comics, Dr. Who, EA, Fortnite, Mad Max, Microsoft, Playstation, Roku, Sony, Spider-Man, TV, Xbox, anya taylor joy, austin powers, batman, bbc, commodore, compulsion games, dc studios, dcu, dead by daylight, death stranding, dont nod, double fine, dreamworks, epic games, fox, fromsoftware, gaming, geek, george miller, gorilla grodd, harry potter, hbo, housemarque, jimmy olsen, kojima, kpop demon hunters, lego, lobo, lord of the rings, luna abyss, movies, nerd, niantic, ninja scroll, ninja theory, nintendo, obsidian, palworld, paramount games, peter sarsgaard, pokemon, pokemon go, ps5, shang chi, shrek 5, sie, supergirl, superman, taylor sheridan, tencent, the batman part 2, the hunt for golum, the last of us, tulsa king, video games, weird al, yellowstone
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.

Episode 420: To be Phranque...
June 3rd, 2026 | 57 mins 56 secs
007 first light, God of War, Lex Luthor, MCU, Playstation, Sony, Spider-Man, Star Wars, TV, Taylor Swift, Tom holland, Xbox, a minecraft movie, a24, activision, amazon prime video, backrooms, call of duty, call of duty modern warfare, call of duty warzone, dcu, escape from new york, fable, gaming, geek, god of war laufey, insomniac games, io interactive, man of tomorrow, marcia lucas, marvel's wolverine, minecraft, modern warfare 4, movies, nerd, nvida, obesession, onimusha, playground games, rambo, rtx spark, sony playstation, sony santa monica, spider-noir, stargate, state of play, steam, steam deck, superman, tekken, toy story, toy story 5, valve corp, video games, warzone, xbox game studios, zack snyder
God of War Returns, and Wolverine is set for September. But so is every other game apparently. So while we all wait for GTA VI, we can now also wait even longer for Fable. Steam may have been hiding in plain sight as a villain all along, we now look to Lord Gaben for guidance. Spider-Noir is more Groucho than Cagney, but it might work in its favor. And Call of Duty is bringing us to East Asia.

Let's do Hutt Stuff while Mando is away. We've got a review of The Mandalorian and Grogu, and Nick updates his Star Wars Ranking. Plus The Steam Deck is the latest gaming device to get a price hike, but hey at least a new Witcher 3 DLC is coming out! Excelsior! Stan Lee is coming back, but i'm not so sure everyone will be happy about that, and Bungie is taking the light out of Destiny 2.
