734: See You in Vice City
The marketing blitz for Grand Theft Auto VI is in full swing! Because it's 2026, it would be highly unusual if this was without controversy. Acc and Jack discuss everything related to GTA, from the franchise's history, to the unbelievable weight of expectation, to how the ever-increasing price of consoles may affect the game's launch. Also discussed in this episode of The Acc and Jack Show: Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Genesis celebrates its 35th anniversary! Delightfully awful music, and awfully delightful music.

733: Epic
An example of why this podcast is called "Hardly Focused" - a discussion about Faith No More reuniting turns into reminiscing about The Great Mighty Poo from the Nintendo 64 game Conker's Bad Fur Day. Jack and Nate try their best, but staying on-topic remains a regular struggle. Hey, at least Mike Patton and the boys are back together! Also in this installment of Hardly Focused: What does one formally call a podcast with video? Jack once again injures his right hand. The America 250 concert is everything the Great American State Fair isn't. Louis CK has a new Netflix special, and it's going to do just fine. Remembering Daveigh Chase, whom everyone forgot voices Lilo in Lilo and Stitch. That insane video of the bungee jumper in Brazil who wasn't attached to anything.

Will Jack ever make a dent in his backlog? Also discussed in this episode of The Acc and Jack Show: Acc recounts a stinky experience with black cupcake frosting. The Bricks and Minifigs saga continues, with a potential end in sight! FOLLOW and SUBSCRIBE to Hardly Focused! https://hardlyfocused.com/subscribe Learn more about your ad choices.
