Ep. 831 – Wheel of Fortune

Wheel of Fortune and Wheel of Fortune Deluxe Edition for the SNES spins it’s way over to TADPOG shores. We have to start the show with plenty of home-ownership woes, plenty of Anime I? A visit to the TADPOG Book Nook, some table top stories, Ian’s Horror Hole, and more. We all have a storied history with Wheel of Fortune (especially Ian), so we gush about the show and then see if these two games measure up in any way. Do you think they might? The cost of them correlates. So please, sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 830 – Rambo

Rambo bleeds it’s way onto TADPOG shores. Wait, that cover shot doesn’t look like it’s from the original Rambo movie, he never wielded that sort of gun in the daylight. On grass and dirt. Could this game actually be based not n Rambo First Blood but on the terribly named First Blood Part II? YES. Does that mean we have to watch and talk about BOTH movies in order to set the scene for this NES game? YES. Do you have out foremost Rambologist, Jon Turley, on the show? OF COURSE. So please, come listen to 4 old white guys talk about a movie from the 80s and and NES game from the very early 90s. We also try some stuff, talk about anime, and a few books. Won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 829 – Super Baseball 2020

Super Baseball 2020 swings for the fences this week on TADPOG! We just had to pair this robot classic with the finale of our Summer Baseball series with Major League 3: Back to the Minors. We talk about some anime developments, visit Ian’s Horror Hole, see what Dave has been playing, what Tyler has been reading (Dave too!) and finally try some tasty treats. We more talking about Major League 3 that anyone has probably ever done before THEN we jump into this strange little robotic baseball game Super Baseball 2020. OH, and we are all alive. So won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 828 – Super R.B.I. Baseball

Super R.B.I. Baseball is summoned into the world of the living directly from the 90s, just for you. That’s not the only thing resurrected for the show. That’s right. Courtesy of the Dave’s vested internet interests, Tyler is back, gradually, and we continue our Major League in the Major League series – this time with Major League 2. We talk some serious shooters – not just Overwatch but Counter Strike. Dave reviews the latest Fantastic Four movie, parallel movies are discussed and so are a variety of tabletop RPGs. So please, won’t you come sit awhile and draw upon the spector of death to bring back our loved one AND listen? CUBICLE MONKEY WITH THE SUPER GIFTING!

Ep. 826 – The Adventures of Milo and Otis

Milo and Otis! You remember their adventures, right? And all Americans are very familiar with the Japanese NES – The Famicom and it’s Japanese only exclusive peripheral, the Famicom Disc System? Yes? I knew it! The Adventures of Milo and Otis was a MASSIVE hit over seas so, of course, it has a video game called The Adventures of Chatran just for the Famicom disc system. So we just had to watch the movie and play the game. We also brought on our foremost Milo and Otis-ologist in Bubba Drewski! He also brought hot sauces! So listen to us try a variety of snacks then dive headlong into the true atrocities that are this movie and game duo. Why do I use the word “atrocity”? Well, you’ll just have a sit awhile and listen! Milo and Otis!

Ep. 825 – Summer Break

Hey! It’s Summer Break! It’s hot! It’s busy! There was a recent federal holiday! Plus a business trip all combines into not being able to properly prepare for this week. We must all dedicate real time to Milo & Otis and Milo’s subsequent Japanese game. So Tyler has prepared some bits for us to go along with, discuss, and decompress. We’ll get you video game next week. Promise. Until then, won’t you come sit awhile and listen to us yammer on about books, movies, food, or what will smash and what we will pass? Summer Break!

Ep. 824 –Platoon (NES)

Platoon! Did you know this was an NES game? Have you seen Platoon? While watching it did you think it was just the PERFECT movie to base an NES game on? No? Neither did we. But we watched/re-watched Platoon and did a deep dive into this game. Of course, we brought on our foremost gunologist – Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley to complete the duo of TADPOG I.T. being together on the show once again. We talk about the best sort of ice to chew, Overwatch 2 characters, banana pudding, anime, and more. So won’t you sign up to come and listen to this episode? We’d hate to bring back to podcast draft.

Ep. 823 – Predator (NES)

Predator crash lands on the shores of TADPOG to turn invisible and hunt us using it’s heat vision. But don’t worry, we Peppa Pig out with some muddy puddles and we’re safe. But we do bring on the genuine article of foremost Predator experts with Game Bud Prime Nathan E (he held the 2nd best time IN THE WORLD for speed running this game). First, however, we talk zombie movies, Marvel movies, FFXIV, Star Trek, and Switch 2. We do gush over the original Predator movie aaaand them move onto the game. So please, sit awhile and listen!
