Batman (1966) Sep 28, 2020

Show notes

Holy podcasting, paisanos! Mark and Jeremy perform a live commentary of the 1966 Batman film, a movie that they both unironically love very much. Somehow, however, they managed to to record this episode right when YouTube shut down for a while, causing some confusion in the middle. Luckily, you don't really need to watch along with them if you don't want to — this episode is mostly just a fun discussion of why the '60s Batman just absolutely fuckin rules.

A Sausage Link to the Past Sep 21, 2020

Show notes

Hard Drive editors Mark and Jeremy write and perform an original episode of 1989's The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! in which Mario and his friends head to Hyrule Kingdom and run into Link and Zelda! The entirety of the script was written live on the podcast with no ideas beforehand and it gets incredibly silly. Head to thehardtimes.net/harddrive/a-sausage-link-to-the-past/ if you want to read along with the script while listening!

The Hard Drive Podcast Sep 13, 2020

Show notes

In the inaugural episode of The Hard Drive Podcast, Hard Drive editors Mark Roebuck, Jeremy Kaplowitz, Andy Holt, and Kevin Flynn discuss the ins and outs of being the most ethical video game website on the planet, getting doxxed at E3, and why a combination of Waluigi's penis and 9/11 inexplicably changed their website for the better.

Happy Birthday Mega Man! Sep 07, 2020

Show notes

On the season one finale of Captain N, it’s Mega Man's birthday so everybody gets him some junk they have lying around, except Dr. Wright, who makes Mega Man a whole girlfriend to have. It’s fucked up. Like enough already. Mark and Jeremy don’t want to watch this crap anymore, so tune in next week in this very same space for the first week of The Hard Drive Podcast (starring Mark and Jeremy). No joke, stick through to the end of the pod for some thoughts and details about what's to come!

Metroid Sweet Metroid Aug 31, 2020

Show notes

In one of the show's most disturbing episodes to date, Mother Brain tricks Captain N and his team into thinking that they murdered her (and they celebrate it), Kevin holds a gun to Eggplant Wizard's head (who pleads for his life and shows a picture of his wife and two kids), Simon keeps hitting on Princess Lana (who keeps saying no), and Mark and Jeremy go on an extended riff about the times they've broken their keys.

In Search of the King Aug 24, 2020

Show notes

Mark and Jeremy’s war of (redacted) words continues on the Captain N Wiki page, in a saga that has grown too sprawling to be contained by a single podcast. Once everyone settles down, this is a weird episode of Captain N, with no Eggplant Wizard or Mother Brain in sight. What we do get is bizarro versions of everyone, stolen Monty Python bits, and a totally sick and twisted world where everything is opposite, meaning people wear their clothes dirty and otherwise act pretty normal.

Simon the Ape-Man w/ Arin Hanson Aug 17, 2020

Show notes

Arin from Game Grumps joins the podcast this week to watch the most perverted and disgusting Captain N episode yet. What could have been a very innocent tale of Simon Belmont bonking his head whilst skateboarding and forgetting who he was becomes a twisted tale of severed body parts, giant bugs, asses that refuse to quit, and more than a little interspecies intimacy. Also it's full of chiseled butts.

Nightmare on Mother Brain's Street w/ Leslie Lee III Aug 10, 2020

Show notes

Struggle Session's Leslie Lee III joins the podcast for this episode of Captain N that features exactly zero references to Freddy Kreuger. Mother Brain puts Princess Lana into a deep sleep by tricking her to eat a poison apple on account of her being too pretty, prompting Simon and Kevin to compete to see who can kiss her out of it first. We also get a glimpse into Kevin's worst nightmare when he is sent to the Nightmare Zone: being forced to reenter normal society after the horrifying video game war he has been forced to participate in.

Mr. and Mrs. Mother Brain w/ Pat Boivin Aug 03, 2020

Show notes

Pat from Castle Super Beast joins the podcast to talk about how goddamn fucked up Captain N: The Game Master is! Simon Belmont shoots himself in the ass with a love arrow, accidentally forcing him to fall in love with Mother Brain. Meanwhile, Mega Man and Kid Icarus meet another deeply fucked up cow. But most importantly, the gang fights, for about 5 seconds, Mr. Bones — a cool 80s skeleton man wearing a skeleton shirt. Mr. Bones fuckin rules, you guys. You're gonna love Mr. Bones.

Three Men and a Dragon Jul 27, 2020

Show notes

Captain N and company are in Dragon’s Den, trying to reunite a baby dragon with its dragon mother, in this week’s episode set in the world of Dragon Quest, AKA Dragon Warrior. It is honestly mostly dragons this week. King Hippo and Eggplant Wizard drop in long enough to ride a few of those babies and Simon Belmont stops by to milk a cow in one of the more awful ways imaginable. As always, Mark and Jeremy reference and alter the Wiki page, which helps key the boys into one of this (or any) series’ most glaring continuity errors.
