Ep. 801 – The Untouchables

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Untouchables somehow was missed in our movie games line-up (we eventually figure out why) so we agitate that gravel back to old haunts (a one week break) to the old movie and game plan! Before we talk about this Oscar award winning movie we discuss some Overwatch 2, a little Marvel Rivals, some Final Fantasy XIV expansions, a bit of the old Baldur’s Gate 3, and draft some fictional gangsters. Then we talk quite a bit about the movie and do a deeper dive into this game than any review magazine ever did. Our new Zine Lord has the stats to prove it. So won’t you come sit awhile and listen to this episode on The Untouchables?

Ep. 800 – Looney Tunes B-Ball

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Looney Tunes B-Ball has more dunks than a donut shop all over TADPOG studios! This week we take a brief respite from movie games to fit in what we all heard was a hidden gem. Is it? We’ll get there. But first we talk about Police Story, Final Fantasy XIV, Cunk, and Sonic 3. Tyler has a bad night. What movie star has the most SNES game appearances? The results may surprise you. Then do a deep dive in Looney Tunes B-Ball and bring on, of NBA James fame, Captain Gun Nerd John Turley. So please, come sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 795 – Super Godzilla

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Super Godzilla rises from the seas around TADPOG studios, bringing with it Godzilla Minus One for us to watch – since this game doesn’t parallel any Godzilla in particular (as far as we can tell). Of course, Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley – our foremost Godzillologist, joins us. As he did not watch the movie or play the game he is there to be pretty and we love it. So join us as we talk about Jack Black, a made for TV movie starring John Travolta, a 62 hour audio book, building our own boy dinner, and finally Godzilla Minus One and this very very off SNES game. Please, sit awhile and listen to Super Godzilla!

Ep. 794 – Toy Story

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

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. 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. 786 – Oops! Four Calls!

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Oops! Four Calls! That’s it! Well, we also do a deluxe sampling of something we purchased, we painstakingly craft an Italian meal, catch up on what everyone has been up to (Tyler has returned and explains his absence in detail), we discuss some TV, some games, visit Ian’s Horror Hole, discover the Tactics League, and TAKE FOUR CALLS! So please, if you like any of that – including exactly four calls, then please sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 783 – The Pagemaster

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Pagemaster swashbuckles, flies, and…limps its way to TADPOG shores. We’re all fans of Macaulay Culkin here but this movie slipped past both Tyler and Dave and the game eluded all 3 hosts. So it’s a deep dive into both the movie and the game yet again. Some powerful opinions all around. To describe the plot of the movie poorly – “A boy suffers a concussion and gain the courage to attempt dangerous bike stunts without a helmet.” So there is that, talk of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, a blind draft of child actors, and more. So please, won’t you stay awhile and listen?

Ep. 782 – Pitfighter

Pitfighter

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Pitfighter. That’s right. We are tackling the legendary SNES port of the arcade game Pitfighter. More famously known as Sh*tfighter. We can’t even pretend. We can go ahead and get right ahead of this one and say this game is truly the stuff of nightmares. But how bad is it really? We have a pretty granular conversation trying parse out just how bad this game is and where is falls in the over SNES ranking. Does Street Hockey 95 retain its crown as the worst SNES game we have ever played? To find out, just sit awhile and listen!
