Oops feat. Tom Zalatnai
Left Trigger Right Trigger
In the digital equestrian justice system, the gamers are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the farmhands that spend time nurturing the majestic beasts; and the game developers that program the horses in the video games that gamers enjoy so much. These are their stories. DUN DUN Oh, wait, this is for a different show. Uh, ignore all this I guess? In this episode: Tom commits a crime, David keeps at it, Greg drops some deep lore, Giovanni stands trial. If you have a suggestion for our next episode, throw it in a comment or review!

Sim feat. Ayla Kaluski
Left Trigger Right Trigger
What is real? How do we determine what in our life is real vs not? We can never know using our senses, which is why we must build a simulation to determine the answer! We've gathered a panel of the brightest minds we could find, the best technical executives, and a gaggle of hedge fund managers to pay for it all. We'll leave the boys in the lab to cook up what will of course be a world changing invention. But hedge fund managers can only bring us so far so if you want to get in on the ground floor of this exciting opportunity. So open your wallets and find out if you're real or not! Giovanni...

Water
Left Trigger Right Trigger

Friends
Left Trigger Right Trigger
"Comedy series about a tight-knit group of friends living in Manhattan. It also covers their interactions with their families, their lovers, and various colleagues over a period of several years." That's what IMDB says the synopsis is for the hit TV show Friends. Never has a synopsis given me pause and made me ask if I'm in a simulation. Thankfully, none of us live in Manhattan anymore so we definitely don't live in that particular simulation, but what about New Girl... In this episode, Giovanni is in scheduling hell, David keeps trying, Greg tries to stay positive (results...

History
Left Trigger Right Trigger
In 2024, a video game podcast was recorded about history. This single piece of recorded audio, while seemingly benign, would have untold ramifications across the media landscape for the next century.

Before we dig in, let's look at the episode itself. Here are the pertinent details: David looks back. Giovanni sees the present. Greg can't see back far enough. Before we begin, if you'd like to support this and other studies, consider...

Toy
Left Trigger Right Trigger
Greg here, hat in hand. I'd like to apologize for misusing the word toyetic. I used it as if it meant "toy-like" or "possessing the properties one might expect in a toy" but it actually means "potentially marketable as a toy." I made a mistake! Sometimes mistakes are made during the heat of the crucible of a podcast recording. I will strive to do better. Anyways! In this episode, Giovanni delves the electronic ocean, David puts things on his reader device, Greg wants to make little doodads....OF HELL. If you'd like to show your appreciation of this heartfelt apology, consider going to our...

Cool
Left Trigger Right Trigger
It's August so once more we delve into the plethora of topics that contain our beloved double-o. Why do we do it? Because it's so Cool, just like this episode! How do we know it's cool? Because we're overly calm about it, almost to the point of indifference! How cool is that? TURBO COOL In this episode: David doesn't turn his chair around to sit in it, Giovanni jams out too hard, Greg can hardly make out what's happening.

Dragon
Left Trigger Right Trigger
Hail adventurer! Watch thine step as you venture closer to the mount as a dragon roosts within it. If the smell of gold dares waft to the lair within, the dragon will rise and search out the scent. Better to offload your coin now than risk it, wouldn't you say? In this episode: Giovanni hits the apex early, David watches the world change around him, Greg feels duped If you're ready to leave your gold behind, consider submitting it to .

info_outlineOk folks, it appears we've made a si able mistake. Somehow in making jokes about an invisible , we've seemingly made all s we try to type invisible. We were just goofing, you know, just getting ja y with our words. I don't know what deity has caused this. None of us are particularly ealous in our religious beliefs, yet this certainly implies some kind of digital force that has messed with what we can or cannot do. If it wouldn't cause a ba illion emails to get sent to us, I'd blame "Arthur Smarts" for this.
In this episode: David hits the wall, Giovanni has heard enough, Tess keeps trying, Greg has gotta go fast.
