Aug 07, 2020•1 hr 12 min•Transcript available on Metacast It is time for our most ill-advised one-off yet, our long-promised Drowning Special.

But before that, we fulfil our contractual remit to talk about entertainment by discussing the incredible Flight Simulator, and the mind-bamboozling Superliminal. It's got a bit of everything, this show. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the po...

Jul 03, 2020•1 hr 13 min•Transcript available on Metacast It's ludicrously hot (read: a bit hot) in the UK right now, and it isn't helping our general state of "melted" that all these exciting games are being shown off at the moment.

May 22, 2020•1 hr 16 min•Transcript available on Metacast Joe, Alex and Matt convene to discuss the end of this generation with Ghost of Tsushima, the beginning of the next with Unreal Engine 5, and eventually start discussing the age old argument of whether a story about drowning can, indeed, be funny.
