It's a podcast of two halves this week. In the first half, we talk through a whole heap of new film trailers we've been watching recently, cover Apex Legends' new map (and all it's lovely colours, for some reason), and play another lovely game of Mr. Lister's Quiz Shootout. But the second half is deeper, darker, spoilier. We've just seen Joker, and Joe, Cardy and Matt convened to talk it through in it's entirety. Listen at your own risk. And remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast...

Matt and Cardy have also been to see Rian Johnson's latest, Knives Out, and discuss why it's a great pallet cleanser following The Last Jedi. There's also some quickfire takes on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare's beta, The Last of Us Part 2, Borderlands 3, Sayonara Wild Heats, and the beautiful c...
Sep 27, 2019•1 hr 9 min•Transcript available on Metacast Cardy & Joe have both been reviewing games this week so gather round the podcast table for layers of critical thought. Link's Awakening has been remade for the Switch so Joe tells you why that's a banger and Cardy has done FIFA again so explains what's up with the footballs this year. Borderlands 3 also gets its fair share of debate time. Meanwhile, Dale is convinced that new Netflix show "The I-Land" has ripped him off and is out to prove it. Joe's got a list-based quiz for the Endless Search a...
Sep 20, 2019•1 hr 7 min•Transcript available on Metacast Tokyo Game Show is happening right now, bringing big revelations about some of Japan's biggest games. So you know what that means: long chats about what the hell is going on in Death Stranding. Joe, Cardy and Matt discuss Kojima's latest revelations, and it looks like we finally know what you do in the game. There's more than Thermos babies to discuss, though. We've been playing a duo of delights in Gears 5 and Catherine: Full Body, plus the slightly less delightful Daemon X Machina. And in film...
Sep 13, 2019•1 hr 3 min•Transcript available on Metacast Matt has seen IT Chapter Two and not only does tell us his feelings, but he also shares his interview he did with the film's director, Andy Muschietti.

Sep 06, 2019•1 hr 21 min•Transcript available on Metacast If you aren't from the UK, you might not be aware that we aren't getting Disney+ along with the rest of the world. We have some stuff to say about that. Once we've gone through the stages of grief, we have time to talk about The Mandalorian, new Disney and Star Wars series, and Control. We even squeezed in a chat with Brian Froud, the genius behind the many, many designs of creatures in The Dark Crystal, and its new Netflix Prequel, Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Thanks Brian! And remember, if...
Aug 30, 2019•2 hr 41 min•Transcript available on Metacast Look, Gamescom was very busy, so we recorded the special when we got back. Inauthentic? Yes. Tired? Also yes. But we are at least comprehensive. That's why you get big hunky chunks of Death Stranding, Disintegration, Marvel's Avengers, The Endless Cylinder and more. Also, Joe turned Farming Simulator into an actual game! (Sorry, Germany).

May 31, 2019•1 hr 28 min•Transcript available on Metacast Joe, Dale and Cardy had just watched the new Lonely Island visual poem just before this podcast and, honestly, you should probably do the same. Once we stopped being excited about that, we had a talk through Confirmed Very Good Games, Observation and Heaven's Vault, and then our own Good Game, Go On Name Them. Oh, and in our last big spoilery discussion of Game of Thrones, we look back at our predictions for the series. We're no Three-Eyed Raven, let's put it that way. And remember, if you want ...
