Ep. 847 – WarpSpeed (SNES)

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

WarpSpeed crashes onto TADPOG shores this week. We celebrate with Ian’s 3D printing, plenty of what we have been playing, what we have been watching, what we have been reading and more. We even discuss what we will play for Christmas this year. What do we think of this generically named game that we have never heard of before? I guess you’ll have to listen and find out. So won’t you please download some sort of podcasting app on your phone, find us, subscribe, make sure you are on Wi-Fi somewhere so you don’t drive up your data, download an episode, then sit awhile and listen? WarpSpeed!

Ep. 844 – F1 ROC: Race of Champions & F1 ROC II: Race of Champions (SNES)

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

So F1 looks to be a pretty broad SNES catergory for the ol Randomizer so this week we are knocking out two of them with F1 ROC. We have to bring on our foremost F1ologist in Bubbadrewski (I joke here as usual but he did really know what he was talking about, so did Ian.) We knew racing games tend to be a little barebones so we also included the latest Brad Pitt movie, F1. We also tried some very special, or very not special in any way, holiday-themed Oreos. We take a great fan-made draft and more. So won’t you come sit awhile and listen to two people who know F1 and two people who know absolutely nothing about F1 talk about it in great detail?

Ep. 830 – Rambo

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Rambo bleeds it’s way onto TADPOG shores. Wait, that cover shot doesn’t look like it’s from the original Rambo movie, he never wielded that sort of gun in the daylight. On grass and dirt. Could this game actually be based not n Rambo First Blood but on the terribly named First Blood Part II? YES. Does that mean we have to watch and talk about BOTH movies in order to set the scene for this NES game? YES. Do you have out foremost Rambologist, Jon Turley, on the show? OF COURSE. So please, come listen to 4 old white guys talk about a movie from the 80s and and NES game from the very early 90s. We also try some stuff, talk about anime, and a few books. Won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 789 – A Nightmare on Elm Street

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

A Nightmare on Elm Street (with some Nightmare on Elm Street 2 and 3 sprinkled in) slashes its way into the TADPOG studios! We start of with some anime talk, some video game chat, some sampling of very expensive ham and sour candies, then we roll into strong to the movie talk on A Nightmare on Elm Street and follow it up with some equally deep talk about the NES version of the game. So if you’re a horror fan on both on the big screen and the small home screen that displays the 8 bit version of the movie as a video game then OH BOY do we have a treat for you. So please, stay awhile and listen!

Ep. 780 – The Rocketeer

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Rocketeer figuratively rockets onto TADPOG shores (and directly into into a garbage can that we keep there). We continue our long running series yet again where we watch the movie and play the game. We take a deep dive into this movie for a nice little review and then hop skip and jump onto the straight up dumpster fire that is the game. Really, we don’t even want to be coy with this like maybe we liked or maybe we didn’t and you’ll have to tune in and see. This game blows goats. It’s truly terrible. But come sit and while and let us tell you why! The Rocketeer!

Ep. 775 – Dick Tracy

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Dick Tracy agitates the gravel on his way to TADPOG shores courtesy of the fact we just felt like doing this movie/game combo. This one is a real Girth Brooks with some TV talk, Ian’s Horror Hole, the drama of Tenacious D, and the mourning of the passing of some of our favorite celebrities. We do a double barrel ten spot blind draft then dive head long into Dick Tracy from the movies and the NES. Won’t you be so kind as to stay awhile and listen?

Ep. 743 – Alien vs Predator

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Alien vs Predator comes along in our stunning series of SNES games with VS in the title. So that’s 2 out of the 3. We think. There is a list somewhere but it’s long. We’ll get there. You know what we’re about here at TADPOG. We congratulate Ian on winning an award. We talk plenty about the Dark Tower as Dave has moved onto Ian and Tyler’s favorite book of the whole series, Wizard and Glass. Dave tells of his journey into Final Fantasy XIV expansion packs. There is a deep dive into this movie and how the game stacks up to what happens in it and more. So please, sit awhile and listen to us go on about Alien vs Predator!

Ep. 719 – Mohawk & Headphone Jack

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Behold! Mohawk & Headphone Jack! Some sort of Garbage Pail Kid collects discarded AOL Trial CDs in a completely nausea inducing Mode 7 sort of way! Sound good? Well, you should totally try it if it does. We talk about The Abyss, the best darn fair in town, the movie Critters and more. No draft on this one but it’s because we wanted to make sure and take plenty of calls. So come here a weird job offer story, some Tim Robinson talk, and the likely deepest dive you’ve ever heard in Mohawk & Headphone Jack.
