Ep. 839 – Captain Commando (SNES)

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Captain Commando commands its way to TADPOG shores, courtesy of Ian’s suggestion. Commando wasn’t working out too well so we pivoted to another thematic SNES game this week. Judging by the baby in the mech suit, you can imagine what we collectively thought about this game. BUT first, Tyler has gifts from his recent business trip. We talk about what we’ve been playing. Being adults and repairing our houses. The intensity of iPhone security and more. We really get into the game talk and say a few things we haven’t gotten to say about a game in some time. So, please, won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 837 – Lite Bake

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Lite Bake. We heard you. Everyone knows the rules. The show will always look like the show art unless you ask for a lite bake. So here you are. You’re all long time fans of the show and understand the reference, right? We know that’s a big draw for people – lots of inside jokes. We did need a lite bake this week due to Tyler having to be out of town quite a bit for work, so we chat about some Louisville restaurants, Ian’s Horror Hole, The John Wickiverse, and plenty of other movies. We also take Sandwich Pope’s suggestions for some drafts and just hang out. Won’t you come sit awhile and listen? Lite Bake!

Ep. 836 – Battletoads & Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team Up (SNES)

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Battletoads & Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team Up street fights its way to TADPOG. This episode truly is the ultimate team up since we have a special message from someone destined to be a guest host one day, likely even the 4th permanent host. BUT before that, we gain a new studio pet (you can name it), we visit Ian’s Horror Hole, talk about some Overwatch skins, play some niche dungeon exploration games, and have a tasty treat. Then we discuss our histories with Battletoads, Double Dragon, and this Ultimate Team Up! So please, won’t you stay awhile and listen?

TNN Bass Tournament of Champions! That’s right, The now defunct The Nashville Network came out with their very own fishing game! It must be glorious, right? RIGHT?! We will get there. But first, let’s talk about some new Steam releases, Crook and Chase, Peacemaker, Ian’s Horror Hole, Pete Holmes, and more books and movies before we hit some drafts. Then we dunk our worms deep into the watering hole of this little fishing game. Also, thank you for the welcome mat, Lord Mike of Perdue! Won’t you all come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 834 – Nickelodeon GUTS

Nickelodeon GUTS

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Nickelodeon GUTS gets busted all over our show this week. Did you want more game show video games? TOOOO BAD, this is the official last one for us to cover on the SNES. We have some storied housing and AC updates, some gaming news, and a new round of drafts. Yes, multiple drafts. Does that tell you anything about how much game there is to talk about? Hint hint, it should. The beloved “Anime I?” segment gets some hits, and we go over the storied career of Mike O’ Malley. So, please, sit awhile and listen. But only if you have it. What is it? GUTS. Nickelodeon GUTS.

Ep. 833 – American Gladiators

American Gladiators SNES

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

American Gladiators assaults, power balls, cannon balls, and jousts it’s way over to TADPOG. Being good little 80s and 90s kids, we all had a love for this show. But does that carry over to this SNES game? You can probably guess. We draft some princesses and your favorite TADPOG episodes, we get really deep into Ian’s Horror Hole, read a few books, got some very interesting stories from Ian about his childhood and more. Come for the gladiatorial talk, stay for the stale game reviews – won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 832 Plus 2 Minus 800 Equals Rule 34 vs. The World

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

??? might be your first thought at the title of this episode. But yes, Rule 34 is definitely applicable for what we have in store for you. Tyler and Dave both had business trips this last week, so we went with more of a relaxed episode with conversational bits. Don’t worry, we’ll get back to the gaming next week. Life has to find a way. So, join your three usual hosts PLUS Jon for air conditioning revenge, prison breaks, commentary on Harbor Freight, some drafts AND the biggest “Build your feast” to date. We know you like video games and all but won’t you sit awhile and listen to some content on Rule 34?

Ep. 831 – Wheel of Fortune

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Wheel of Fortune and Wheel of Fortune Deluxe Edition for the SNES spins it’s way over to TADPOG shores. We have to start the show with plenty of home-ownership woes, plenty of Anime I? A visit to the TADPOG Book Nook, some table top stories, Ian’s Horror Hole, and more. We all have a storied history with Wheel of Fortune (especially Ian), so we gush about the show and then see if these two games measure up in any way. Do you think they might? The cost of them correlates. So please, sit awhile and listen!
