We Podcast and We Know Things

This month, Greg goes on and on about Balatro, one of the most addicting video games in years, Sam gives his impressions about Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, X-Men 97, Dune 2, Netflix's Avatar adaptation and the beginning of Invincible S2 P2. Plus, we dive, spoiler free, head first into the best show currently on television... and that is Shogun on FX/Hulu. Elden Ring finally got its DLC announced, more mass layoffs have hit the gaming space, Avengers 5 will somehow still have Kang, but will not feature Kang... or something like that, and a bunch of great shows were renewed for new seasons.   Whatcha Been Up To?

HOLY CRAP!! We're eatin' fam!! On Pokémon Day 2024, we just got perhaps the best possible scenario announced with two things Greg has wanted... a new Legends game and a new Kalos game, but they're THE SAME THING! Pokémon Legends: Z-A is coming in 2025, but still does not leave us with some skepticism and questions, but this is no doubt a banger of an announcement. Plus, Mega Evolutions are coming back! Greg breaks the entire thing down and speculates as hot off the presses as you can get... recorded literally minutes after the presentation ended. He also recaps the entire Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase from last week and does a deeper dive into the new Contra game. GET HYPED!

This month, our main story is the future of Xbox, as presented by Phil Spencer and co. At least four Xbox games will go multiplatform, but the company promises it is not done in the hardware space and the brand will live on. We talk about what games will be coming to PS5 and the Nintendo Switch (and Switch 2?!) and why Starfield and Indiana Jones are not... yet. Marvel has bounced back with a really good week, including first looks at Deadpool & Wolverine and X-Men '97 while giving us a peek at the cast of the Fantastic Four movie, coming July of next year.   Whatcha Been Up To?

This month, we debate the MCU's big bad moving forward, if the post credit scenes for the Marvels were worth the hype, why Godzilla Minus One is one of 2023's best movies and if the recently announced live-action Legend of Zelda film is a good idea. How was the Madame Web trailer? Spartacus is coming back. Yu Yu Hakusho's live-action Netflix series got a trailer and GTA VI will be very very soon. The Last of Us Part II is getting a long-awaited PS5 remaster and... it's actually pretty great value.   Whatcha Been Up To?

So thankful for this one. Greg hung out with two of the four members of his favorite band, Durry.

We go two hours talkin' about season one of the Last of Us. Favorite episodes, characters, cold opens, but let's be honest, it's not a perfect show. We also discuss our biggest gripes, what didn't work and how the show's lack of infected did more damage than just "WHERE'S THE ZOMBIES, BRO?!" Also, we dive super deep into where the show will go from here and how it will adapt the story of Part II, potentially over multiple seasons. Plus, Greg throws an interesting Tommy theory out there that you will not want to miss. IF YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED PART II, DO NOT WORRY, YOU CAN STILL LISTEN TO THE FIRST 1:15:00 MINUTES OF THE POD WITHOUT ANY SPOILERS FOR THE SEQUEL!

For this very special bonus episode, we are joined by long time friend and Pokémon trainer, Anthony Pinto, for a massive recap of the Pokémon Day Presents that included the DLC announcement for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Was that enough to make the presentation worthwhile or did it miss the mark? Also, did a (correct) leak just bring the Switch Pro rumors back to life?... yes. Yes it did. From there, we also go deep into the recent State of Play that covered Street Fighter 6, RE4 Remake, PSVR2 and a blowout on Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League.
