Episode 48: Are Video Games are Dying a Slow, Painful Death?
Here in 2025, a notion has begun to pick up steam in many communities: video games are dying. For some, video games and gaming itself is dead.
In spite of the fact that Gaming is the highest grossing form of media consumption in the United States, it is often argued that the influx of normies into the space, lazy and formulaic development that retreads well-worn ground, ham-fisted politics, and piss-poor optimization has ruined games.
In today's episode, we visit Reddit, one of the internet's most respected and intellectual sites, and tackle these questions head on in order to answer the pressing modern quandary: Are Video Games Dying?

Episode 47: Barnyard - The Most Influential Game Ever Created
Before the Godfather, Gone with the Wind, or Don Quixote, there existed an even more renowned and influential piece of art.
Though the film adaptation of Barnyard would not be released until 2006, the ideas and concepts were created in the 30s and helped move America through the Great Depression.
Today, we take a look at the Pinnacle of gaming and dive into the 2006 GameCube port of Barnyard, the single best game we've had the honor of covering to date.

Episode 46: It's Time to Start Trusting Game Journalists (Review Roast)
The past decade has not been kind to game journalism. The profession has taken a hit due to a plethora of issues ranging from skill issues and dishonest review scores to the unnecessary politicization of games and games media.
Today, however, the savior of Games Journalism’s reputation has descended: Ben Sledge, and he is here to set the record straight in a piece he has entitled: It’s time to Start Trusting Video Game Journalism.
Join us as we educate ourselves on why it’s the unwashed gaming masses who have had the problem, not the highly honest, prestigious, journalist class.
