The Foobar Show

Doom Scrolling IntroThis episode is chock-full of geeky goodness: Steph gives an early, spoiler-light check-in on Resident Evil Requiem, including the dual-play vibes between Grace (FBI agent) and Leon S. Kennedy — plus why Leon feels like a totally different game to control.Then Joe drops a “Florida Man” story that’s so dumb it almost deserves respect: an alleged Target trading card theft scheme using 99-cent taco seasoning packets at self-checkout, which turns into a bigger rant about adult scalpers treating Pokémon cards like stock options.In Geeking Out, you get big Apple TV+ updates: For All Mankind Season 5 gets a trailer and a premiere date, plus news of the Soviet POV spinoff Star City. Then it’s over to the MonsterVerse — Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 talk, followed by a full-on MonsterVerse trivia showdown: Steph vs the Titans.Finally, Here’s What I Would Do returns with two listener dilemmas:Alex (Signal Hill): a neighbor treating a paid, assigned parking spot like “community property” (tow truck time).Nicole (Pasadena): a friend turning the group chat into a self-optimization TED Talk with step counts, discipline quotes, and voice notes.Also mentioned: Daft Punk drops a new “Human After All” video (song isn’t new, video is), and the Foos tease an upcoming Japan trip with plans to record while traveling.Chapters(0:00)Doom Scrolling Intro(3:56)Intro(4:40)Resident Evil Requiem Steph’s early impressions (Grace vs Leon gameplay)Shoelace Express update No Way is out + Hi-Brow Lounge show recapFlorida Man Target “taco seasoning packet” trading card scheme + Pokémon scalpers rant(22:21) Geeking Out For All Mankind Season 5 + Star City spinoff + Monarch Season 2MonsterVerse trivia Steph vs the Titans(46:54)Here’s What I Would Do Parking spot war (Alex Signal Hill)Here’s What I Would Do Group chat productivity seminar (Nicole Pasadena)(1:00:28)Outro + Doom Scrolling OutroResident Evil Requiem, Leon S Kennedy, MonsterVerse trivia, Monarch Legacy of Monsters, For All Mankind Season 5, Star City spinoff, Target trading card theft, Pokémon scalpers, group chat self optimization, parking spot neighbor dispute
