Ep. 858 – Aero Fighters (SNES)

Aero Fighters, you know—Aeros. And they are fighting. Did you guess this would be an intense cinematic platformer detailing a surface-dwelling human’s adventure trying to make his way through a cloud kingdom he woke up in? If so, you didn’t look at the game cover. It’s a top-down shooter. But I give you points for creativity. And someone should make that game. Or not, Tyler hates the genre. BUT AERO FIGHTERS! We visited quite a few movies this week, with some books and TV mixed in. Lots of zombie game talk for some reason, but we also do a solid dive into this game. So won’t you end this meandering episode introduction and just stay awhile and listen?

Ep. 856 – Mecarobot Golf (SNES)

Mecarobot Golf! Did you also think it was Mecha Robot Golf? Wrong. Did you think this was a cool arcade style golf game with robots and futuristic elements? Wrong. Maybe more than 1 robot? Wrong. This game is not really what you would expect at all. But we taste some hot sauces and salsa courtesy of Bubbadrewski, some desserts from Tyler and plenty of movie, TV, and game talk before we get to the robot slander. So won’t yoy come sit awhile and listen to Mecarobot Golf?

Ep. 855 – Pinball Dreams, Pinball Fantasies, and Super Pinball: Behind the Mask

Pinball Dreams

Pinball Dreams, Pinball Fantasies, and Super Pinball: Behind the Mask – That’s right, we go a little pinball crazy and takes on three games at once (hey, it’s pinball, not a ton of difference). But first we talk a lot Star Trek. Then some books. Then some movies. Then we try a food AND GET SOME AMAZING CALENDARS! THANKS, NATE!

Ep. 853 – ActRaiser 2

ActRaiser 2, the factual sequel to factual sequel to the Biblical book of Acts has finally arrived on TADPOG shores. Tyler has returned to us, and he didn’t die this time, so he talks about his week away. We deeply discuss donkeys and their wedding presence. TADPOG Book nook arrives as Tyler and Dave discuss the books read for the week and what Ian has watched for the week. We’re fortunate to have BubbaDrewski back, fresh from his flight in. We do get very into ActRaiser 2 and a few treats. So won’t you come sit awhile and listen to some old white men talk about video games?

Ep. 849 – Super James Pond (SNES)

Super James Pond swims through the snow to TADPOG shores! Why snow? For some reason, this is a Christmas game, so that’s why we let it circumvent the Randomizer and get some love…or more likely some hate. You’ll have to listen or have listened to a few of our shows before to infer our general feelings about this sort of game. But hey, it’s not a sports or a Koei game. We try a cornucopia of gummy treats, talk about Paducah food, Beavis and Butt-Head, and more. Won’t you come sit awhile and listen? MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Ep. 848 – The Tick (SNES)

The Tick, at last, and through so many iterations – has leapt onto TADPOG shores. In true celebration, we stacked the co-host panel for everyone. Not only do you get all the common hosts, you get BubbaDrewski and Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley! We have to discuss a few movies, of the Rob Reiner variety, more commentary on the increasing Stephen King television library, the fantastic defeat of Clair Obscure: Expedition 33, and maybe a little Dudley more for spice. Lots to discuss in this one, so won’t you sit awhile and listen to us talk about The Tick?

Ep. 845 – The Adventures of Dr. Franken (SNES)

The Adventures of Dr. Franken, otherwise known as a justification to watch the new Frankenstein for the show, arrives on TADPOG shores! We mix is up in order to keep Nicole guess with our order of operations and discuss Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein right out of the gate. Then we discuss plenty of Stephen King, Janitor Joe, Young Frankenstein, and more. THEN we get to the game. Well, we also try some Goo Goo bars and the latest offering from Final Boss Sour. So if you have a hankering from some Steinkering (I know, just go with it for me) then come sit awhile and listen to us grouse about The Adventures of Dr. Franken.

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

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?
