Silent Hill16 Oct 202402:15:04

*Content Warning* Themes of self harm and sexual abuse.

We bring you tales from the Quiet Mounds. Are we being haunted by ghosts, or is it all just politics? Either way the natives tried to warn us and we didn't listen so now we bring you the very timely horror classic. Press left and right to rotate as we take on another staple of the horror game series to discover, what is Silent Hill (it's a town in Maine).

Alien02 Oct 202402:32:05

*Content Warning* Themes of sexual assault and abuse.

We're back just in time for the spooky season and we have a big one. Ever wonder what that little dancing chest-burster in Space Balls is a reference to? Isn't it curious how everyone says "Game Over Man, Game Over?" Why is the bad guy in Metroid named that? All of these easily answered questions are explored like an abandoned alien ship filled with dead guys and scary eggs. Watch and be amazed as CJ descends into madness like a movie franchise descends into being not so good anymore.

DOOM (Part 2)08 Nov 202301:24:02

It's time to finish the fight...I mean rip and tear until it is done. There's a lot of unanswered questions, and we were OK with that, but they decided to answer those questions anyway. Our final dive into the lore of the latest DOOM installments is a road to madness, but fortunately special guest Colin stays long enough to be our shining knight against the horde of silly fantasy names.

SAW (Halloween Special)31 Oct 202302:15:48

Hello listener, you've never appreciated having a silent 2 hours during a spooky Halloween night. In this Halloween Special episode you will find guest hosts Sammi and Erik who have devised a way to convey the Saw lore into one handy episode. You must decide if this lore makes sense or if it is goofy silly time.

Choose wisely, for if you answer incorrectly we will release all the spiders that we hid in your headphones and there will be icky spiders in your ear (which is both ironic and appropriate for the season and you can't convince us otherwise).

 

DOOM (Part 1)25 Oct 202301:31:10

One of the most iconic video game series to have ever existed began with just some random guy in a green suit killing waves of enemies with laser guns. And before Halo there was DOOM.

In this one, the gang recruits the help of Colin, Loremaster of angels and demons, to cover the full DOOM story from early days with the Doomguy to being played in a movie by...*checks notes* Judge Dredd from the 2012 remake movie Dredd? Enjoy all the delicious set up to the newest entries and stay on the edge of your seat for 2 more weeks for that sweet payoff.

The Treehouse of Lore-or11 Oct 202301:05:21

We are getting some spooky season appropriate episodes ready, so in the mean time enjoy the scariest thing we could think of, UNRELEASED CONTENT.

But in all honesty we have some funny goofs and gaffs that we didn't really have any use for, but now we have finally have a full episode's worth. Enjoy some outtakes, bonus lore, and silly non sequiturs.

Starring some lovely clips by none other than the witty and talented LizardxLizard: lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

Highlander27 Sep 202302:01:18

There can be only 5 movies, two animated series, a live action TV series, several graphic novels, and an upcoming reboot. Learn the essentials of the saga everyone knows a little bit about but no one knows all of, as that knowledge is The Prize. There's only so much we can do in 2 hours but we can Quicken your knowledge of everyone's favorite Scotsman(?) and Spaniard(?).

 

Sean Connery resurrects in the second movie. We don't even cover that, it was so inconsequential it never came up but it's kinda crazy it just happened for no reason.

Metroid13 Sep 202302:09:21

Did you know that the Varia suit is probably just a mistranslation of the English word Barrier, so Samus' suit was supposed to be called the Barrier Suit? Anyway that's one of the fun bits of trivia we could have done if we had more time but we didn't because we had to talk about how dumb Other M is.

Battle Royale30 Aug 202302:07:02

Today it's about the genre book that spawned 1000 games all with the same niche. If it seems like a crazy fever dream, that's because originally it was one. Brace yourselves for the drop cause this one gets a little darker than Fortnite may make it seem.

 

Again we are joined by special guest and Fortnite expert LizardxLizard: https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

Ep 36: Pikmin16 Aug 202301:39:55

Not every episode has to be about big flashy heroes and villains. Sometimes you just need a silly little guy. Like, most of the time all the listeners want is just a fun, silly, tiny creature that runs around and does things. Wouldn't it be nice if those silly little guys were running around for real? I'd like that.

Ep 35: Akira (Part 2)02 Aug 202301:58:23

The explosive and quite honestly confusing conclusion to the manga that launched a million references. The end is like a choose your own adventure except instead of adventure it's existential dread.

Ep 34: Akira (Part 1)19 Jul 202301:35:53

At the very heart of anime lies one root, the genesis of myriad inspirations and references, the origin of a new tone of story telling. We pick apart this pillar of media and analyze its deep messaging, it's dark tones, and we make a bunch of jokes about drugs and bombs and stuff.

Twilight (Part 2)28 Feb 202402:06:46

The girls are back in town and that town is Forks and how can they still possibly be talking about sparkling vampires? Well it has something to do with hunky werewolves and unholy cabals. It's hard to tell for sure, I got really distracted at the parts where they were talking about falling in love with babies.

I'm sure it all makes sense in the end though.

Of course check out our guest host LizardxLizard and her amazing artwork and comics: https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

Ep 33: Mystery Science Theater 300005 Jul 202301:59:40

In this meta episode we talk about the lore of a show that talks over other shows. Remember if something doesn't make sense, it's just a show. You should really just relax.

Ep 32: Scott Pilgrim vs The World21 Jun 202301:22:27

Today we are talking about a lazy slacker who can't seem to get his life together. We are also talking about the critically acclaimed graphic novel Scott Pilgrim. Maybe it's just our millennial talking but we think this one rocks.

More Lore #1: Into the Zeldaverse17 Jun 202300:58:33

First mini episode, we talk about the plot of Spiderverse, Tears of the Kingdom, and Diablo 4. Just a couple boys being boys.

Ep 31: Bioshock Infinite07 Jun 202301:45:54

We talk about real American history in this one, so needless to say it gets a bit rough. In finite terms, we were Bioshocked to find out about the development of this game, but hopefully you can enjoy us getting mad at it.

Ep 30: Diablo24 May 202301:43:52

Sit a while and listen to the story as old as time itself. A story of good and evil, of exceedingly bad ideas, and a good chunk of it is just angels and demons wanting to smash. Get caught up on Diablo lore before Blizzard comes knocking for it's tithe so you can be emotionally invested while your wallet gets drained.

Ep 29: Street Fighter II Turbo Edition10 May 202301:57:13

You cannot have a fight with only one fighter, and so too must you learn of another warrior to complete your Street Fighter knowledge. This time we are talking about M'Bison and while he might not be a "nice guy" he always has a smile on his face. It's time to learn the meaning of the phrase: Nothing beats psychic powers.

Ep 28: Street Fighter26 Apr 202301:19:39

Ready? Fight! Ethan has been training all month preparing to deliver the killing blow to lore of everyone's favorite fighting game that comes in normal and turbo flavors. Premeditated murder? That's for the lawyers to decide. We are just here to start you on the way of murderous intent. Or the opposite of that, which also involves murder, but more a more mindful version.

Ep 27: Digimon Adventure 0212 Apr 202302:28:19

Our greatest digifears have come to digifruition and we have been digidestined to revisit the most digital series there is. We have a lot of info to cram into this one, so sit back with a nice digibeverage and enjoy this cinematic length descent into madness (all in a shorter runtime than a James Cameron movie).

Ep 26: Super Mario Bros (The 1993 Movie)29 Mar 202301:42:20

Nintendo can try to pretend like the latest Mario movie is the first one to come out, but we know better here. Lets-a-go then, you and I, to a place where mushrooms grow rampant and two simple Italian plumbers who are from Brooklyn defeat a king and who is also a wizard sometimes.

Ep 25: John Wick15 Mar 202301:54:06

I was going to come up with a witty description for John Wick, but then some kid on Fortnite playing as him killed me and started orange justicing and now I don't want to think about it.

 

Get all caught up before John Wick: Chapter 4 changes all the rules of the world again rendering this lore obsolete.

Twilight (Part 1)14 Feb 202401:39:09

It's Galentine's day, and what better way to celebrate than to bring in the ladies to talk about everyone's favorite brooding vampire couple. No, not Angel and Buffy the other one.

The coven of Lizzy, Sammi, Sayali, and Fran chronicle what happens when a Mormon invents vampire lore that inadvertently changes the landscape of literature for all time. Hang in there as the girls TwiHard not to cringe constantly(Lizzy wrote that).

As always, check out Lizard at https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

Ep 24: Digimon01 Mar 202302:05:49

80 percent of this episode is just us reusing interchangeable sequence from previous videos, but it keeps the cost down and personally they are our favorite parts. Join the crew in a new Digiventure talking about Digimon and their Diginspirations that were more than a little bit of a Digistraight ripoff of other (more successful) things.

Yet another entry to the series of "Why most 90s kids are a least a little bit a furry"

Ep 23: Warrior Cats15 Feb 202301:54:23

Betrayal, forbidden love, the hidden ties that bind, and spirits from the great beyond with universal wisdom. We untangle this literary ball of yarn while coming to grips that it's all happening to cats. The gang's all here to finally answer the age old question: What did the cat drag in? It was tribalism.

Guest expert LizardXLizard makes a farewell appearance, show her some love: https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

Ep 22: Puss In Boots01 Feb 202301:43:48

Kitty paws and booted claws, a wayward fencing outlaw.

This episode filled with a load of Spanish speaking flaw.

We have a game for our guest LizardxLizard to play.

The moral of this story is eating the rich is OK.

Ep 21: Fire Emblem18 Jan 202301:54:44

Come engage in some high fantasy with us while we describe several blue and red haired anime boys who save the world from dragons. Whether you are looking for love or just looking to make the most powerful team for killing without remorse, we have all the info you need right here. Special guest LizardxLizard returns to give her top husbando/waifu picks.

Ep 20: Kirby04 Jan 202301:44:34

Kirby not afraid, we are talking about everyone's favorite little puffball. So poyoself up a chair and get ready for a chill easy time that will suck all your problems away. At least until the end when you will have to confront the reality of all things that are and are not. But if you make if through you get some cake and a nap so pretty worth it.

Ep 19: The Santa Clause (A Very Merry Christmas Special)21 Dec 202202:30:20

A chill wind blows, a faint sound of jingle bells. You hear him whispering upon the wind, hohoho. Is he a benevolent spirit of old come to reward the children of the world, or a magnanimous force bound to the laws of ancient ones. Who can say, but today the gang is talking about the tool man. I hope everyone is in a festive spirit, we want to all be on our best behavior if the big man arrives. That's Santa, not Timothy Allen. Best behaviors either way.

Ep 18: Sonic The Hedgehog (Archie Comics)07 Dec 202202:11:45

The Blue Blur, The Fastest Thing Alive, King Arthur. He goes by many names but we have unburrowed ourselves from the underground to reveal all the secret rings from the original Sonic Archie Comics. Does it make sense? No not really. But when you are faster than the speed of thought, your plot is going to have some holes in it, and you can't have rings without holes (or something like that don't put that in the actual description).

Again joined generously by LizardxLizard: https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

Ep 17: God of War23 Nov 202201:35:40

War. War never changes. But God of War does, a lot. So to catch you up for Ragnarok we have thrown together a little treasure trove of titanic tidbits to fill you in on what you might have missed in the era since Kratos was a young slayer with a heart of coal and plenty of quicktime events under his belt. Not family friendly unless you think Greek gods represented good family values in which case seek help, but after the episode.

Ep 16: Bayonetta09 Nov 202201:33:19

Style, substance, sexiness. No we aren't talking about our podcast (well we are those things too), but instead talking about the Queen of Rope Mommies, Bayonetta. Strap on your high heels and squeeze in to your zentais because this one is a rough ride. Whether you are looking for an angle or deman, there's nothing on heaven or earth that can stop us from tickling your fancy...for witch lore.

Ep 15: Dead Space26 Oct 202201:30:25

Zombies...In...Spaaaaaace. That's the game. Sure there's ancient madness-causing space obelisks and space lasers and neat space metals, but why complicate things. In space, no one care hear you heehee.

Neon Genesis Evangelion31 Jan 202402:41:43

This is a big one folks, so remember your training because we are going to sync some levels with you. What happens when you mix the Bible with anime? No, not the manga version of the Bible, though we are not too far off.

Loremaster Mischka has descended from his high place of existence to deliver unto us that forbidden fruit of knowledge. Be warned, for the price of knowledge (lore about giant robots) is great and terrible (you must listen to your mom jokes).

Ep 14: Resident Evil (Part 3)19 Oct 202201:54:15

Horror comes in groups of three just like in comedy, lists, and other things. To close the book on all known Resident Evil lore the gang puts on a brave face and takes some penicillin to delve into the scariest and grossest games of the series. There is fungus amungus and there's no turning back now so tune in for as long as you can before fear grips your heart and you call for mummy. Ethan was definitely tortured for this one.

Ep 13: Resident Evil (Part 2)12 Oct 202202:15:30

The zombies were having fun, the party had just begun, the guests included CJ, Fran, and Ethan.

The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds, with Chris and Wesker romantic tension abounds.

Leon was spying some cutie-pie honies, while British men ground up and ate all the mummies.

And while Claire and Ashley were left in the dust, Ada and Jill toward the dance floor did thrust.

It was a mash (An RE lore dump smash)

Ep 12: Resident Evil05 Oct 202201:41:50

The spooky season has descended like a vampire bat upon an unsuspecting goat and we have been infected with a horrible affliction that has morphed our minds, body, and even our branding! For the Halloween season we are The Lore of Horror and we are shuffling out our latest episode on the Resident Evil series. We do our best to Frankenstein the bits of this lore together into something that's alive, but it's clear that like always the real monster was Big Pharma.

Ep 11: Cyberpunk28 Sep 202201:31:04

Punk isn't dead, but now it's all sci-fi and full of roving gangs of clown people and unfettered corporate control. This time channel favorite LizardxLizard comes back to learn about the cool and totally no downside world of Cyberpunk. Whether you just want some more backstory to the cool new anime or are getting ready to jack in and play a real TTRPG for real Netrunning gamers, we've got you covered. From silver hands to nuclear dingalings and everything in between, wake up samurai and get ready to go The Edge.

Ep 10: Bioshock 1 & 214 Sep 202201:54:44

Would you kindly tune in as we discuss the (many) shortcomings of a truly free market. There's nothing airtight about the logic of this subaquatic capitalist wet dream, but we are willing to drill below the surface to find a moral lesson about unfettered economic growth. If you would liberate some time to come give us an invisible hand you just might learn something about the real world too, but it'll cost you. There are no free podcasts.

Ep 9: Gurren Lagann31 Aug 202201:38:27

What is a man but the sum of his giant nesting mechas? This one got away from us a little, you could say it spiraled out of control, but we dug down and steeled our fighting spirit to bring you the deep lore of one of our favorite animes, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. From hand drills to galaxy shuriken, we teach you what it takes to become a man and to Row, Row, Fight the Power!

Ep 8: Final Fantasy VII17 Aug 202201:31:20

Sephiroth, what do you want? No seriously what is going on here? With our head in the Clouds and our feet on Aerith we present to you the tale as old as steampunk cars. Does capitalism defeat the high minded, rebellious youth and succeed in destroying the planet for profit? Historically yes, but this is finally fantasy. So a meteor does it instead, Holy smokes.

Ep 7: Magic Tree House03 Aug 202201:30:22

While walking in the woods one day, Jack and Annie saw something strange: A little magic treehouse that teleports away. They met inside a treehouse friend, not knowing where this adventure would end, the animals were headed just around the bend. Where are they going? I don't know. How do we get there? C'mon let's go! Ceej, and Fran, and then Ethan too, come along and see what's new. We're doing the things that animals do. 

Also children don't belong in a war.

Ep 6: Castlevania20 Jul 202201:30:51

We are Bram Stoked about this episode where Ethan teaches us that the Catholics were right all along and Satan vampires have lived among us for centuries. Alchemy, dark rituals, rock music, and vampiric brooding. We basically have everything cool your parents wouldn't let you do in middle school and we won't judge you for wearing a cloak. We have Alucard on for this blood thirsty boi and after using our hypnosis powers we think you will too, so come along and listen to us talk about a stupidly named castle inhabited by stupidly named people.

Ep 5: The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword06 Jul 202201:24:11

Is this a great Zelda game or the greatest Zelda game? The great debate initiates as CJ teaches the other two about how patience is a virtue and why more game is always better. Want to know why all those nerds at conventions love to buy foam Master Swords and wear Link hats? Douse for some answers here or else we will mail you all our rupoors. We will not repeat ourselves.

Warhammer 40,00017 Jan 202402:38:16

Listen you're gonna want to get in on the ground floor on this one. It's a sure shot, we bought a bunch of little plastic men and then we glued them together and painted them. We bought a lot of them. Then we do a podcast about the lore of the little world these little men live in, get all invested and such. Easy right? Now you buy these little men from us and as a bonus you can sell the little men to other people after they listen to the podcast. I'm telling you it prints money and you are gonna wanna be at the top of this marketing triangle.

Special guest Justin tells you everything you need to know to get started.

Ep 4: Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated23 Jun 202201:27:38

Jinkies! Ancient aliens, Babylonian mythology, AND evil German robots? Zoinks Scoob, I'm just like a teenage kid or whatever. But don't worry gang, we've recruited an expert on the field to solve the mystery of the most beloved of the Scooby-Doo remakes. Jeepers! I hope it doesn't get too weird. Scooby Dooby Doooooooooooooooooooooo!

Big thanks to Liz for her vast knowledge of Hanna-Barbera lore! Check out her stuff: lizardxlizard.carrd.co

Ep 3: My Little Pony10 Jun 202201:37:47

Fran takes the reigns as the boys are chomping at the bit to learn all there is to know about those cute little ponies and their Elements of Harmony. Fran's candid canter provokes CJ and Ethan to ponder Cantor toponology as they attempt to parse how something can be a smaller part of itself. If you're confused, you can bet these two simple dirt bronies are as well.

Ep 2: Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure25 May 202201:16:29

This episode is indeed a mother hecking JoJo reference. Ethan tells us how posing, exposing, and breathing right will help you kill vampires. Stop letting all those memes go over your head, let yourself become a weeb. If we haven't convinced you that you need a Dio body pillow then we aren't doing our jobs right and you get your money back on the episode, guaranteed.

Ep 1: Yu-Gi-Oh!11 May 202201:26:02

Why do children's card games send you to hell if you lose? Because of ancient Egyptian gods of course. Just remember that cheating by using plot armor is OK if your opponent is cheating with regular cheating. In our first episode we run down the beloved anime Yu-Gi-Oh! and its later arcs that fewer people remember.
