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!

Ep. 747 – Clue

Clue is here! We know the SNES game isn’t really based off the movie but it’s a really great excuse to also rewatch the Tim Curry classic since there may not be a huge amount to say about an SNES game based off a board game that plays…very much like a board game. So please come hang out with us while we talk some TV shows, FFXIV expansions, some Dark Tower, do a board game draft AND talk a whole lot about Clue the movie. And as much as the SNES game as possible. Clue!

Ep. 746 – The Blues Brothers

The Blues Brothers! It’s an 90s Super Nintendo game based off an 80s movie based on a 70s SNL skit, that is how you know it’s quality stuff and totally appropriate to all the material its based on. But first we must discuss the Blues Brothers movie at length, and even before that we draft out our personal top tens of SNL skits. We also talk various Jacks in media, washing machine woes and more. So please, sit awhile and listen to The Blues Brothers!

Ep. 745 – Wayne’s World

Wayne’s World schwings on over to the shores of TADPOG as we go one more game into our “Saturday Night Live movies that were turned into Super Nintendo games” series. We had to go back and refresh ourselves on the movie, the skit, and we even played the video game. We visit a special Holiday Horror Hole, remember Hades fondly, discuss donut hamburger induced traffic congestion, do a draft, and talk all things Wayne’s World – if any of that sounds good to you then please come sit awhile and listen to a podcast about Wayne’s World.

Ep. 742 – RoboCop 3

RoboCop 3, that means the coming of RoboCop not once, not twice but THRICE! And this time on the Super Nintendo! Was it a good movie? Was it a good game? Let me ask you this – was there a RoboCop 4? We do a deep dive into not just the game but also the movie, just for you. We talk about Thanksgiving foods, a little but of the MCU, and there just happens to be plenty more Dark Tower talk as Dave gets further into the series. So if you like a bit robo, and a little bit cop, and all about the Robocop, then we beg you to sit awhile and listen to RoboCop 3.

Ep. 741 – RoboCop Versus The Terminator

RoboCop Versus The Terminator robotically walks into way onto TADPOG shores. This sorta counts as an Arnold tangential movie, right? The streak continues? We make a strong come back with “Anime I?” since Ian has a very strong recommendation. We talk some about Thanksgiving (it was Thanksgiving Eve when we recorded this, after all), discuss what we’ve been playing then take up a Thanksgiving Foods draft, we honestly can’t recall if we have done that one before or not, before taking a deep dive into RoboCop Versus The Terminator. We have some feelings about this one, so please, sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 740 – Last Action Hero

Last Action Hero completes our SNES Schwarzenegger Series and we come full loaded to discuss what we thought not just about the game but also the movie – this is one Ian hadn’t even seen but Tyler has, that’s the very first time that has ever happened. But even better than all things Last Action Hero – Dave has started The Dark Tower series. So there is plenty of Dark Tower talk along with our theme. So if you enjoy any of it, please sit awhile and listen to our episode over Last Action Hero!
