Ep. 863 – D-Force

Play

D-Force forces its D directly onto our show, courtesy of The Randomizer. We are blessed by the presence of Bubba Drewski to help us talk about different kinds of sugar, what Larry David is doing, discuss Ian’s journey into The Dresden Files, Tyler’s journey into He Who Fights With Monsters, Dave’s journey in Project Hail Mary, and how busted some of the Final Fantasy mini games are. We try plenty of foods from Jungle Jim’s and even find some time to talk more deeply about this game that maybe anyone else ever has. So won’t you come sit awhile and listen to some D-Force?

Ep. 859 – Bonkers (SNES)

Play

Bonkers! Totally nuts. Let’s get this out of the way—yes, Tyler sounds terrible. Embrace the terrible. He is out of town for work and is doing his best. So, beyond 1/4 of the show having bad audio, Bubba Drewski joins us to discuss both the cartoon and the show this week. We talk about TikTok cats, FFXIV, something about pants, and the difficulty of job interviews and more. So if you liked Bonkers, or even happen to be familiar with these game – won’t you sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 858 – Aero Fighters (SNES)

Play

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)

Play

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. 853 – ActRaiser 2

Play

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. 851 – Liberty or Death! (SNES)

Play

Liberty or Death! or cake? Nah, no Eddie Izzard references here (for the moment). You know we love the vast field of minutia and crunch that are all Koei games, so surely we do even better with a game that relates to history we studied in middle and high school, right? RIGHT?! Plenty of time for all that, so we discuss Hardee’s, the overconsumption of alcohol, and a few movies we saw for the week. Lots of stuff here so won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 848 – The Tick (SNES)

Play

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. 847 – WarpSpeed (SNES)

Play

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!
