Hey friends. It's buffer episode week. We talk food fights and play some games. Tune in next week for our Tooth and Claw torunament Draft!
This week it's on like Donkey Kong, y'all. We see our final two combatants duke it out on the streets of the Old West town of Redemption to see who comes out on top! The Lady (The Quick and the Dead) faces off against Trinity (My Name Is Trinity). Get ready for some twists and turns that NOBODY saw coming. If you read this and tweet the word koolaid to @showdowncast , I will say any 10 words you want on this show. (within reason. c'mon) -DF FIGHT IT OUT BUT BE EXCELLENT TO ONE ANOTHER!...
What's this? The penultimate episode of the High Noon Tourney? And it's following a wildly successful and totally listenable episode that totally happened?! It's a miracle! In our first fight, The Lady (The Quick and the Dead) faces down El Mariachi (Desperado) as a delighted and slightly inappropriate Gene Hackman looks on. In fight 2, The Man in Black (Westworld) and Trinity (They Call Me Trinity) go toe to toe in a Speed vs Grit battle. Special thanks to our Patreon backers (patreon.com/ultim...
This week we discuss the curse that has been placed upon us, presumably for something Cannon did. We do some blah blah blahs and talk about some upcoming stuff. I love you very much.

Hey friends. Cheryl is still travelling the world looking for the rarest mushrooms that ever grew. This episode we work together to make a world for an RPG that doesn't exist.

(This is Fowler, duh) If you read this, please email the word linguini to showdowncast@gmail.com and I'll mention your name on the show. Shh. It's our secret. ---------------------------------------------...
You know how sometimes life just doesn't go your way? How sometimes the most endearing host on your podcast just up and leaves you for a few weeks? How sometimes the last good recording you had with that host gets destroyed by another host's incompetence? All of that has happened to us here at Ultimate Showdown in the last two weeks. We're sorry this one is forever late, and everything went wrong. Please... Uh... Enjoy? I don't know if that's the right word for your relationship with this episod...
The High Noon tourney continues to Round 2!
