Episode 384: Mileage may vary
September 18th, 2025 | 1 hr 37 mins
a knight of the seven kingdoms, amazon prime video, amy poehler, anaconda, assassin's creed, asus, avengers, avengers: doomsday, battlefield 6, bethesda, boderlands 4, central perk, comedy central, console wars, dice, disney+, dr. doom, ea, elder scrolls online, eso, final fantasy vii, fire emblem, friends, game of thrones, gaming, gearbox interactive, geek, halle berry, hbo, hbo max, henry cavill, highlander, hollow knight silksong, house of the dragon, jack black, jimmy kimmel, joseph kosinski, mark hamill, mass effect, mega pokémon, miami vice, movies, nerd, netflix, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, paul rudd, pokémon, pokémon legends z-a, ricky gervais, robert redford, sega, seth rogan, sonic, south park, star wars, stephen king, super mario, super mario bros, super mario galaxy, superman, the batman pt 2, the elder scrolls, the emmys, the long walk, the muppet show, the muppets, the oscars, the witcher, tv, ubisoft, video games, xbox
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

Episode 278: Only shooting stars break the mold

Another summer ends, that means its new game season, and to start it off we have my early thoughts on Starfield, which is definitely going to be one of my favorite games. We also have a potential third strike coming as SAG-AFTRA looks to strike against the video game publishers. Doug Bowser opens up about Nintendo's future, and Skull & Bones hits another hurdle. Adam Drive, Aaron Paul and others speak out against the AMPTP, Toho drops a big new Godzilla trailer, and Ahsoka was amazing. Also my top 10 80s animated movies gets a shoutout.

This week we have a review of DC's The Flash, and after a long wait, it did not disappoint. Nintendo held a long and fruitful direct. Netflix held their annual Tudum event, and the FTC is smoking the same stuff as the UK's CMA. We also got news on two PlayStation movie ventures, Star Trek Strange New Worlds returns to screens, and Sony dropped a bloody and brutal Kraven the Hunter Trailer.

Episode 238: Nintendo gonna Nintendo
November 30th, 2022 | 52 mins 42 secs
activisionblizzard, amazon prime video, amc, andor, ang lee, arma 3, barbie, battlefield, bethesda, black adam, bruce lee, call of duty, cocaine bear, david cage, dc animation, dc kingdom come, dc studio, dcu, disney+, ea, easy rider, fallout, game freak, greta gerwig, guardians of the galaxy holiday special, henry cavill, indian jones 5, james gunn, lucasfilm, mario, mass effect, mcu, mcu ranking, microsoft, movies, nintendo, overwatch 2, paramount+, phase 4, picard, pokémon, quantic dream, sega, shazam, sony, star trek, star trek the next generation, star trek tng, star wars, starship troopers, super mario bros, superman, the federal trade comission, the rock, the walking dead, top gun maverick, tv shows, video games, xbox
Why does Nintendo always have such poor community outreach? At least when it comes to games that aren't Pokémon. is there more trouble brewing for the Microsoft acquisition of ActivisionBlizzard? What made the Fallout TV show so much more appealing this time around? AMC is facing its own Walking Dead, Netflix has a hit with Wednesday and Disney+ is bring in more Fox properties. Andor ending on the highest note possible. Meanwhile Indy 5 impressed Harrison, James Gunn hints at whats to come, the Cocaine Bear is getting the movie adaptation it deserved!

This week continues the not E3 news, like and overview of Overwatch 2, and news about the Final Fantasy VII Remake part 2. Activision investigates itself, and also cancels a guaranteed blockbuster. Is a Jon Snow spinoff really necessary at HBO? Because HBO thinks so. Obi-Wan Kenobi ends in a perfect way. Meanwhile Sony is continuing to push its Non Spidey, Spidey Films, Top Gun Maverick is TC's best preforming movie, and Buzz lightyear fails to draw a crowd.

Episode 185: Everybody gets a Smash clone!
November 25th, 2021 | 46 mins 12 secs

Halo Infinite MP has been out a week, and I have some thoughts. Meanwhile that rumored WarnerBros Smash clone is real, and its spectacular. The external pressure on Activision is growing, and internal pressure isn't simmering down either. Meanwhile Lucasfilm is setting its sights on the future of the franchise, and TV seems to be the path. The MCU is setting up multiple secret projects, and Ghostbusters: Afterlife is a sequel worth your time.

How about that a Nintendo Direct that leaves us wanting more.... Meanwhile Activision is in everyone's crosshairs. Amazon Games Studios finally has a hit in New World, and Netflix has its own fun weekend with its Tudum event. Star Wars Visions impresses, and The Super Mario Movie decides to completely confuse the world.
