Episode 68: The Sarah Michelle Gellar of Prehistorical Despots

in , , ,

Last month, we asked the question "Which superhero would be a terrible roommate?" So, it stands to reason that it's worth playing in that opposing headspace by asking "Which supervillain would be an awesome roommate?" Imagine just hanging out watching Storage Wars doing bumps of The Power Cosmic with Galactus while your bro Toad cleans the bugs from your shared living space, all the while Apocalypse is channeling you full of otherworldy strength enough to carry 10-ton limestone blocks.

Episode 52: Everything Changed After the Chili Wars

in , , ,

Too often we've witnessed countless whirlwind romances take flight atop the Empire State Building and have watched too many supervillains blow up the Golden Gate Bridge. It's time for other lesser-known American cities to get their time in the spotlight. And so the head engineers at Debate This! Games, Ltd. are designing some of the cities in which we've lived into the next greatest AAA video game. Yinz guys want to drive Crazy Taxi-style dahn the Parkway? How about an open-world RPG themed around independent chili vendors? And is Daytona Beach just its own version of a zombie apocalypse?

Episode 47: The Most Beautiful Bee in Uranus (ft. David Flamm)

in , , ,

Once Sonic heralded in the 1990s with his cool-guy, take-no-shit attitude, game companies across the world were racing to find the next raddest platforming mascot. And boy were there a lot more misses than hits. With the help of David Flamm from Left Trigger Right Trigger, we rifle through some of the best of those misses and attempt to breathe new life in these needlessly horny misfits.

Check out Dave's work with Left Trigger Right Trigger, a biweekly video games book club. You can also listen to the entire back-catalogue of Fullmetal Bazinga, an improv sci-fi dramedy based on the final season of The Big Bang Theory.

Yeah, sure, your pet is your best friend because and they provide you with unrequited love and companionship, yada yada yada. But your dog would be waaay cooler if it could breathe fire.

Episode 24: Talkin' Tungsten

in , ,

It is the year 20XX. Gigantic monsters have appeared from the depths of the Pacific Ocean to wreak havoc, and so our only option is to build larger robots largely themed around specific elements and/or animals to combat them. The only thing standing between us and absolute destruction is the combined power of Flash Man, Guts Man, and Armored Armadillo. We’re screwed.
