The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Part 4 - Jim's Hot Internals Jun 03, 2019

Show notes

Things get awkward after Vanessa flies back to her home planet and Jim recovers from surgery: that's right, after the level up this is a TWO-HANDER. John continues his angry rage against Nintendo and Ocarina of Time, Matthew lords his skill at Zelda over him, and they fairly easily complete The Hardest Zelda Dungeon Ever. Also: Vanessa has another Theatre Minute! Was the Zelda experiment a failure? Will it destroy the podcast? NO! THE NEXT GAME IS ANNOUNCED AND WE ARE ALL EXCITED! This Week: We complete the Shadow Temple! Next Week: We finish Ocarina of Time! Thanks to The Consouls for their awesome jazz cover of Zelda's Lullaby!

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Part 3 - Volvagia & Labiagia May 27, 2019

Show notes

HEYYYYYY OCARINA. Vanessa gets a theme song, John throws his expensive electronic equipment in a fit of rage, there's tons of minigames, Matthew figures out how to skip entire dungeon sections, and there's many hot takes about this game, it's controls, and for some reason the works of Kevin Smith.

This Week: We clear the Fire Temple! Next Week: We somehow complete the Water Temple!

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Part 2 - Stepping On Your Bits May 20, 2019

Show notes

Be prepared to throw your 3DS across the room, because Vanessa, Jim, Matthew and John are back and haven't quite mastered the ancient art of z-targeting. At all. Even while using their wrists. So pull on your stilletos, because on this episode: we meet the Great Fairy; we find a town full of strapping, stereotypical fail sons; head through the Dodge Durango dungeon; John falls in love with the Gorons; we discover Link's boundary issues; we have several cutscenes of large men behaving very, very strangely; the most jam-packed John's Bullshit Minigame Corners ever; and heck somehow even Avengers: Endgame talk sneaks in. Also a new fact about Vanessa is revealed! SHE IS NOT A NOTARY PUBLIC.

This Week: We find the crystal inside Jabu-Jabu! Next Week: We clear the Fire Temple!

AVENGERS: ENDGAME SPOILERZONE! (also Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) May 13, 2019

Show notes

Hey! Our level up went incredibly long, and was mostly spoilers, so here it is in its own little package.

00:00 - Thrill as we break down The Avengers: Endgame and answer questions that you probably know the answers to!

34:00 - Ready for some Crazy Ex Girlfriend talk? We discuss the good and bad of the ending, Greg, and the results of Rebecca's romantic pursuits!

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Part 1 - Hey! Listen! May 13, 2019

Show notes

We talk about a spoilerzone at the end of the episode, but it turned out to be so beefy we've moved it to a separate episode! Check your feed! It's a new game! We get to Ocarina some Time! We get acquainted with some glowing ladies, a forest boy without a fairy who never talks, get into some deep vore with a tree, explore Jim's arachnophobia, Matthew explains how motion controls work to Jim (move your wrists), John gets gay married to a shopkeeper, and so much more!

This Week: We finish the Lost Woods in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time! Next Week: We get inside Jabu-Jabu and assumably are excreated out of it.

EarthBound Part 7 - Spankedy Spankedy Spankedy May 06, 2019

Show notes

With these fateful words, Earthbound comes to a close. We tear through Ness's subconscious, lose Jim, deal with the shock and horror of instakill attacks, and finally learn to use thoughts and prayers to solve a problem. Also: so much body horror.

This Week: We finish Earthbound! Next Week: We finish the Lost Woods in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time!

EarthBound Part 6 - This Week's Episode Was Brought To You By Chuck Palahniuk Apr 29, 2019

Show notes

Ness doesn't know who you are. Ness doesn't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you Ness doesn't have money, but what Ness does have are a very particular set of skills. Skills Ness has acquired over a very long career. Skills that make Ness a nightmare for people like you. If you let Apple Kid go now that'll be the end of it. Ness will not look for you, Ness will not pursue you, but if you don't, Ness will look for you, Ness will find you and Ness will kill you.

ALSO NEXT GAME ANNOUNCED!

This Week: We find the eighth Sanctuary and head to Magicant! Next Week: We finish Earthbound!

EarthBound Part 5 - Dungeon Man's Goodbye Tunnel Apr 22, 2019

Show notes

We're going to a pyramid! That's right! We're stealing cultural relics, entering a pastiche of China via Japan, failing to use proper signalling to attain enlightenment, trying to figure out the lyrics to Venus, wake up on a beach after getting a little too blazed on some edibles, and regret Jim's hangover. This Week: We get a submarine! Next Week: We head to Magicant!

EarthBound Part 4 - Coffee, Andonuts? Apr 15, 2019

Show notes

Vanessa gets Star Wars crazy on this sprawling episode of Square Roots! We settle on Tony's sexuality while also learning how to spell "Tony", get drugged on a beach, fight the third strongest mole, get hassled by cops, get lost in Moonside for hours, meet a man with a spectacular unibrow, bail the discount Blues Brothers out of another jam, get bored at a concert, enjoy a terrible inventory-stretching dungeon, and so much more!

This Week: We eat some bad cake in Summers! Next Week: We get a submarine!

EarthBound Part 3 - Those Plants That Drain Your PP Apr 08, 2019

Show notes

This very important episode is brought to you by physicals. Physicals! Visit your doctor and let them handle your bits today! Also on this episode: Jim and John share bathroom anxiety, missing scenes from Macbeth, another one of John's musical references no one understands, we debate the definition of puzzles, and Vanessa's very upsetting definition of Mr. Saturn. This Week: We reach the Dusty Dunes Drug Store! Next Week: We eat some bad cake in Summers!
