Ep. 794 – Toy Story

Toy Story is a true tale of gripping mythical science on the autonomy of spirit, the self-actualization of non-human entities, and the rules of engagement they have pre-conceived as a survival mechanism against a more dominant society of war-like god beings known as “the humans.” Or something like that. I saw the movie a long time ago. Come listen to us talk about it, the rules that govern it’s existence, and even more about the SNES game about it! We talk about some anime first, a few games, a few movies, and even try to latest round of sour candy. Some please, come sit and enjoy a podcast all about Toy Story (and a little about Cars and how it makes us feel.)

Ep. 793 – Beauty and the Beast

Beauty and the Beast. It’s a podcasting tale as old as time (well, 12 years at least). We are nearing the end of the SNES movie games list so the time has come to discuss both the game and the movie for Beauty and the Beast. We just had to bring on our foremost Beastologist, Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley, to give zero insight into this movie since he has never seen it. That’s how much we love him. So please, come hang out with us while we talk a bit about kidney stones, horror movies and all the iterations of this story. Please, sit awhile and listen to this podcast about Beauty and the Beast!

Ep. 787 – Soldiers of Fortune

Soldiers of Fortune, aka THE CHAOS ENGINE, hits the shores of TADPOG. Hey, this is an important day! On this, the day of recording, it is our very own Dave’s birthday. So we have to celebrate in style with trying a soda, giving him a gift, talking about RPGs and some TV shows then doing a deep dive into this maybe hidden gem of a game that only Tyler had heard of in a magazine when he was kid. So come please, come sit awhile and listen to us break down this down along with a few anime. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAVE!

Ep. 769 – Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is the latest in our SNES movie games series. So we dragged out the 1994 film alongside the game to get the full experience. Aaaand it was all quite the experience. This definitely falls into that category of, “Did the movie really need to be translated into a game?” So if you’re a fan of the film, we do quite a dive into it. If you haven’t played the game – who do you think you would control in it? If you’re a fan of anything Frankenstein, please come sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 765 – Lethal Weapon

Lethal Weapon brings all its…weapons…lethally to TADPOG shores. You see Joe Pesci up there? But it says Lethal Weapon when clearly he is a character from the sequel? Are you confused? Same here. We ended up watching the first movie but the game is actually over the sequel so just know that going into this one. We do a real Girth Brooks of a Famous Duos draft, we talk about Jim Lahey, leveling Scholar, and more. So please sit awhile and listen to this episode!

Ep. 763 – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie go go goes to this podcast with a simple roll a d20 courtesy of the mini-randomizer that only randomizes SNES movie games. We played the first Power Rangers game and that horrendous Mario Kart clone of a Power Rangers racing game with Zeo. Where does this game fall in that spectrum? We’ll get to that but first we break down the movie and were it’s release landed with us. Dave had a big week so we jump into that news, talk about some books (that may also include some Dark Tower talk) but there is plenty of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie talk to go around, so please sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 753 – Casper

Casper ectoplasmically slides its way into our episode list this week! We just had to see what other gems Absolute Entertainment could cook up for us. Ian and Tyler had some very positive memories of this movie and Dave had never experienced it before so we’re ripe with movie talk on top of the game talk this week. We also talk about some Marvel movies, some Marvel shows, The Dark Tower and more. So won’t you come sit awhile and listen to some old guys talk about Casper, the friendly ghost?

Ep. 752 – Toys

Toys! That long lauded movie that all sorts of kids completely misunderstood and had totally different expectations from has come to the shores of TADPOG. Worry not, we watched the movie and come fully equipped to talk about it as well as the game. Oh, HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY. We celebrate that by taking a romantic comedy draft. Ian discusses some Overwatch news, we make plenty of The Dark Tower jokes (we cry your pardon if you don’t love The Dark Tower even thought you should). We talk about fishing on boats in various video games. But we know you’re ready for that juicy and delectable Toys talk for the movie and the game. So please, come sit awhile and listen!
