Breath of Fire III Part 3 - Either A Some Kind Of Wonderful Or Can't Buy Me Love Scenario Aug 05, 2019

Show notes

We take on a too-big chunker in a disasterous episode of Square Roots. For the first time in the history of the show, Matt is the only one who completed it. Also this episode: Johnny's problematic alter-ego, debating the origins of woods pornography, things get real Cho Aniki, there's muscle chest cleavage, and the game decides to provide optional Australian dialogue.

This Week: We finally fight the resident at the top of Angel Tower! Next Week: We grab yet another passport from Nina's dad!

Breath of Fire III Part 2 - Uniporn Jul 29, 2019

Show notes

CW: Child loss, first 30 seconds. From Tugglepuffs to unicorn brothers, this episode goes places other podcasts wouldn't. That's right: we talk about sneaky redistribution of wealth, consider the consent issues around Yakkidy Saxxing, find Momo's dad's erotic literature collection, a real thing that's really in the game, as well as slowly figure out how the Master system works. Sadly, Johnny misses out on his chance to romance Bunyan, but does get to meet Garr.

This Week: We escape Momo's Tower in a dramatic manner. Next Week: We finally fight the resident at the top of Angel Tower! Thanks to Steven Morris for his Breath of Fire III covers that we will use throughout this series.

Breath of Fire III Part 1 - Matted with Chrysm Jul 22, 2019

Show notes

CW: Child loss, 01h06min-01h12min

So many questions this episode. Are we going to get sick of protagonists Gary and Mogu? Can you get chrysm out of fur? Is there anything sadder than the story of the Nue? Is Bunyan Johnny's new husband? Can we put the ghost of Julian to rest? Should we dwell on Teepo's gender? What is Matthew smoking?

This Week: We start Breath of Fire III and play until killing the boss of Mount Glaus. Next Week: We escape Momo's Tower in a dramatic manner.

Fallout Part 3 - CDEDBD Dumpers Jul 01, 2019

Show notes

Jim, Johnny and Vanessa are drawn into a world of 1970s word games that don't quite work, municipal conflicts best resolved by staying out of it, accidental genocide, crash courses in water pump repair, and trying to save scum their way through some rough Deathclaw encounters!

This Week: We head to Necropolis and The Boneyard! Next Week: We become Brotherhood Initiates and descent into the Glow!

Fallout Part 2 - Joshton's Gun Show Jun 24, 2019

Show notes

Johnny and Vanessa head deep into the desert wasteland, two-handedly solving all the townsfolk's problems in Junktown and The Hub. Larry David's crime spree? Solved. Attacks on the caravans? Solved. Casino staff being alive? Solved. Johnny's Vault Dweller Joshton and Vanessa's Vanessa Eym may not be the best or most ethical adventurers, but they get stuff done. Mostly. This Week: We play through Junktown and the Hub and do a questathon! Next Week: We head to Necropolis and The Boneyard!

Fallout Part 1 - Hashtag Deep Thoughts Jun 17, 2019

Show notes

Yeah! It's time to crawl out of our Vaults and go explore the desert wasteland. On this episode: we deal with 90s UI, talk about hot hot E3 news, have even more problems with 90s UI, try to find brown things on brown floors in brown houses, ignore major plot developments and are otherwise very confused.

This Week: We reach Junktown in Fallout 1! Next Week: We play through Junktown and the Hub and do a questathon!

We couldn't find any Fallout 1 covers!

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Part 5 - Tenderoni Tosse Jun 10, 2019

Show notes

Finally, Matthew easily plows through Zelda, while John struggles through the finish. With Jim recovering from surgery and Vanessa returning to her home planet it's one more two hander! Topics today include: the death of witch ladies, Nabooru's tragic backstory, Zelda's crystal prison as a metaphor for late capitalism, Persona Q, Fallout excitement, and more! We also get real confused about Zelda timelines. This Week: We play Ocarina of Time to completion! Next Week: We reach Junktown in Fallout 1! Thanks to The Consouls for their awesome jazz cover of Zelda's Lullaby!
