An annual dive into game, movie and anime releases of the year, alongside progress through a never-ending media backlog. Each episode features a different guest as we discuss some of the highs, and lows, of the previous years releases... or we just discuss 90's movies and RPGs we only just got around to (and maybe more???)
Retro game aficionado DalaamClouds joins this episode to talk about some of our favourite media experiences in 2025, including Sinners, Kamen Rider and Rebecca Black??? How old does a game have to be to be retro? Why do we hate one of the most popular new games amongst Japanese game devs? Is British SKA music good? Some of these may or may not be answered. These annual episodes are getting more timely with each year.

#03 - 2024 Top 10s with Ashely Miami
Mouthwashing? X-Men?? Madame Web??? Wrestling???? Ashely Miami, Twitch streamer and PNG-tuber extraordinaire, returns to finish what they started in this extra long episode. We go over our top 10 media experiences in 2024, some honourable and less than honourable mentions, as well as getting quizzical when I put Ashely to the test. Not only this but we both get deep and personal as a hard-hitting entry pulls our lore out of us.

#01 - 2023 Quicklook
In this pilot episode I'm joined by my first guest Song of Sisyphus, a co-host on my infrequent other podcast. From Barbenheimer to Birdie Wing and Baldur's Gate, we talk about the highs, and lows, of releases in 2023. We also dive into our backlogs on titles such as Neon White, Revolutionary Girl Utena and Star Ocean 3. All this and even a quiz.
