o it's been awhile since we recorded, anything crazy happen while we were gone? I'm checking my notes here and it seems that The Forbidden Door has splintered, shattered and was used for a table spot. Yeah so wrestling is crazy nowadays and Toast is here with Georgie to discuss the recent events of AEW Fyter Fest Nights One and Two, as well as Money In The Bank and live shows returning. And of course we get hyped for Nick Gage and his scheduled matchup with Chris Jericho and the impact it will h...

ell, against many odds, E3 came and managed to show off what’s in store for the next-generation of video games while contending with the ongoing challenges of a pandemic that’s still wreaking havoc on our everyday lives. While it’s easy to dismiss what may have arguably been one of the more humble presentations we’ve had in years, especially with it being the first year of new Next-Generation hardware, the fact that we got as much as we did with Covid-19 being a pre...

t’s nice to feel like 2021 is on the road to normal, but the trip there is still a long haul—which means we’ll be looking at another digital-only E3 presentation as we continue to shelter-in-place. With one more week to go before everything officially gets underway, we here at Press Pause Radio decided to get into the speculation game with some good ol’ fashioned E3 2021 predictions! Join George, Ed, Andrew, and Sean as they cover their obligatory thoughts towards the rum...

ell this is embarrassing , but honestly, we couldn’t be happier about the news. This episode of PPR is focused on what ending PSN support for legacy PlayStation hardware would mean for owners who still have their old Sony machines on deck. We shared our thoughts on the event, and what selection of games we recommended for download before the plug would be pulled, but then something happened only a day after recording… Maybe there was enough serendipity from developers and players al...

e are right back at it with another episode of House Show, this time around Toast and George discuss the aftermath of Wrestlemania week and the talent that was released by the WWE. We also go into some of the highlights of NXT and The Collective, as well as why we are AEW marks. Hope you all enjoyed the last few weeks of wrestling, and we especially hope the talent that was let go bounce back and find better opportunities. Thanks for listening and let us know if there are any topics you would li...

n this episode of House Show, friend of the site BoogNites checks in as we discuss all the wrestling happening during Wrestlemania week. Highlights of NXT and The Collective as well as predictions of the two-night Wrestlemania weekend are all on topic for this show. It's seriously too much wrestling but we hope to check out as much as we can, and hope that everyone enjoys their particular brand or style of professional wrestling. Thanks for checking us out and stay tuned for more coverage and di...

t's been a while since we last had a House Show recording, and originally I thought we would record prior to AEW Revolution to hype up the upcoming event. I'm glad George suggested we record afterwards as a recap, because MAN! That ending and everything else AEW will be discussed in this episode as well as the recent news of the WWE Network moving to Peacock. Thanks for tuning in, hope everyone is doing well!...

limate Change and Stonks be damned because we out here recording another fresh episode of Press Pause Radio for y’all, and we even brought back Sean for it too! In this episode we talk some thought up on the Resident Evil Village demo that released, the Mass Effect Legendary Edition announcement, the bullshit of Six Days in Fallujah, and our shared impressions of the latest Nintendo Direct. We also dive in to what’s been in our consoles, covering a wide range of games that include Vi...

e don’t know about you guys, but I think we’re getting pretty tired of shitting on the every year into the next, and while no year deserves to get shit on more than 2020, I think it’s time we right into the new year with a “cool bois” vibe. Democracy has done its part to purge the orange scourge, and mass distribution of the vaccine is gradually making progress, as little as it may be—things are looking up! 2021 has so much potential for games too, both Bog, i...

s anyone looking forward to Survivor Series tonight, or is this the annual pay-per-view event that WWE should send into retirement along with The Phenom? Toast and George will discuss the show's ups and downs through the last three decades as well as the impact of several debuts at the fall showcase. We also get pumped about the upcoming AEW video game, take care of our aging canine and Toast predicts that Sting will show up in the ring tonight for the showdown fans never got. All this and more ...

an, Daylight Savings time sure is weird—while everyone here at Press Pause radio can appreciate the gift of an extra hour being added during the weekend of all times, it’s still enough to make you queasy… Still, it’s given us time to catch up on everything we’ve playing before the wave of next generation hardware hits us in a couple of weeks, and even then, there’s no shortage of stuff to get through. This week we talk about Microsoft announcement of 10...

o, George and Toast are back with another episode of PPR's wrestling podcast where it is revealed to Toast that Adam Rose is still around and he got HUGE. Besides that revelation, we also discuss the outstanding Parking Lot Brawl from AEW a few weeks back and the opening rounds of the Pure Title Tournament in Ring of Honor. We go over a brief history of the title and predict the rounds to come in determining a champion. Hope you enjoy the show, and if there are any suggestions for a specific top...

n this episode of House Show Toast welcomes his good friend Pristell onto the show as they discuss the most recent PPV from AEW, All Out. Love for the promo, as well as Mr. Kingston may be common throughout the show, but they also get into the matches and some of the show stealing performances from MJF and Thunder Rosa. Was the event as good as it's predecessors, or has the current climate of wrestling taken some shine from it's prestige? We hope to answer these questions and more. Thanks for ch...

t’s about to get real come November, the long awaited arrivals of the Sony PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X and Series S will finally launch to the public. Sony and Microsoft have finally unveiled the major details for their next generation hardware after months of speculation and brevity, and well, the hole killer pandemic thing that’s still going on (wear a fucking mask y’all.) Color us unprepared too because not only is George too broke to steadily invest into both; Andre...

o it's official, Press Pause Radio has a wrestling podcast. It may have taken several years to get around to it, but what better time to discuss all things professional wrestling when hardly any shows are happening due to the ongoing pandemic. Fear not, we still have plenty of topics to go over such as the Thunderdome, Custody Ladder Matches, why Bart Gunn should debut on RAW Underground and recent AEW happenings. Thanks for checking out the show, and stay tuned for more to come in the future....

id anybody else catch that video game documentary on Netflix, High Score ? We personally forgot to finish it with all of the EXCITEMENT that was coming out of Gamescom 2020! Oh well, I guess we’ll have to talk about the weird omission of Dragon Quest in the RPG episode some other time… Anyway, with pandemic still being a major threat, this year’s iconic trade show took a remote approach, featuring a showcase that brief lineup of upcoming next generation games appearing on next...

hit is scary right now y’all, so believe us when we express just how grateful we are that our director of creative content, Serraxor is alive and well among his Press Pause Radio family! We have plenty of catching up to do with our friend, along with a butt-load of vidjya games to hash out & talk about in this quick get-together of “what’s in your console?” The conversation covers a bunch of different topics ranging from the giant Nintendo leak that was covered by Kot...

ere at Press Pause Radio, we make it a point to ask the hard-hitting questions that no one else will, like if there were only 3 food trucks in the world, and they were operated by the Seraphites, Washington Liberation Front, or the Fireflies, which one would risk life-and-limb to eat burritos from? It’s been over four years since we’ve done a Games Club episode on the cast, which has honestly been four years too long; Naughty Dog has finally released the epic sequel to their 2013 mas...
Jul 28, 2020
andemic be damned, Team PPR is here to make sure that we can cover the latest news in video games with that hard-hitting flavor y’all know and love… Man, who’re we kidding, we’re late as hell to the party because this “new normal” is, unfortunately, hitting us harder than we would care to admit (seriously you guys, goo pay Ser some love whenever you get a chance because God Dammit does he especially deserve it right meow.) Before we set to record our upcoming...

ow is everyone doing? Like, how’re are you guys, gals, and Nonbinary folk really doing...honestly, we’re all a bit scared, and tired, and nothing is normal at the moment, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t hope, right? So, on with the show we must go then, and while we’ve all been really overwhelmed here at Pres Pause Radio, we’ve still managed to keep busy with some games that we would like to discuss in this quarantine special of What’s in Your ...

an, I don’t know about you guys but it feels like it we post this this annual special of ours even later than the last one, year by year—we’re really sorry about that. Rest assured, just as reliable as the groundhog, and its shadow, so too is our Game-of-the-year feature, The Golden Zonkies! (well, at least until Climate change fucks it all up for everyone anyway.) In case y’all don’t remember the updated flow from last year’s show, we have changed up our form...

olidays are rough but boy-howdy are they really just the Gosh-dammed best! Hey y’all, we took a bit of an impromptu break from Press Pause Radio for a few weeks because among the many preparations that the holiday asks of us, we also needed some time to refresh, and actually sit down with some of the games that we picked up o that we could properly talk about them. The Golden Zonkies for the year of 219 is right around the corner, until then, this episode is a jam-packed what’s in yo...

ctober is the new November! Hey y’all, in this latest episode, we cover some recent news, heavy quotes on “recent” because some of the info we covered is slightly dated by today, which we totally apologize for. George has been ill for the last week or so, effecting the production of the episode a result. We appreciate your patience nonetheless, and hope you’ll enjoy us chewing the fat of the latest happenings in video games! Join Andrew, George, and Ser as they talk shop ...

o we don’t give a darn what y’all say, Peppa Pig for Smash, or get the EFF-OUT ! In an effort to deliver better content, at a more consistent pace, we'll be continuing the format we introduced last episode, and it's one that’s going to be different from the one we’ve done for the last ten years. Instead of catching up on all the news and games that have happened between shows before the chosen featured topic, we have decided to release each of these segments as a dedicate...

ehind all of the larger-than-life voices, brands, streams, and memes, the video game industry is made of people—it seems more folks in high places are forgetting that. In an effort to deliver better content, at a more consistent pace, we'll be continuing the format we introduced last episode, and it's one that’s going to be different from the one we’ve done for the last ten years. Instead of catching up on all the news and games that have happened between shows before the chose...

ow it’s time to talk about all the stupid Vidya Games that we’ve been playing, AKA, the one all with the snack talk, and Japanese PlayStation 2’s. In an effort to deliver better content, at a more consistent pace, we'll be continuing the format we introduced last episode, and it's one that’s going to be different from the one we’ve done for the last ten years.

hange is good, right?—it’s scary sure, but if we don’t give the chance to try something different, then how can we really say that we’ve grown? In this episode of Press Pause Radio, we’ll be debuting a new format that’s going to be different from the one we’ve done the last ten years. Instead of catching up on all the news and games that have happened between shows before the chosen featured topic, we have decided to release each of these segments as a d...

ow that E3 2019 has come and gone, it's time to see just how close our predictions were for the thing—spoilers, we were way fucking off this year. Nonetheless, we breakdown everything from EA’s bafflingly underwhelming appearance there, to the sweet surprises that Nintendo, Microsoft, and shockingly Konami brought with them to the conference this year. Oh yeah, and we can’t help but contemplate if Todd Howard is a full-on masochist after gritting his teeth through all of those ...
Jun 21, 2019
019 sure is weird—we all knew that E3’s role in the industry has been dwindling by the year, but I don’t think any of us would have imagined how different the content was going to be now that both Sony, and Nintendo have bowed out of the expo this year. Still, there’s plenty of scuttlebutt to get excited for, & we’ve got some predictions/news here in this episode for you guys to get excited over. While some of those rumors have already been confirmed during the ...

eing told that you’re not good enough to do something sucks; there’s no “if’s”, “and’s”, or “but’s” about it—it’s an incredibly damaging thing to hear, and an even shittier thing to say. Yet, even though it’s a topic that’s been discussed ad nauseam, it’s still a conversation that the industry and culture of Video Games is struggles with in terms of a mutual resolution that could benefit all parties. ...
