| Episode 34 - Dishonored | 07 Mar 2026 | 01:43:18 | |
We're joined by an Outsider of our own (okay, its Jason again) to discuss our wildly different approaches to navigating the dark miasma of Dunwall in the 2012 stealth-action game Dishonored. This game has it all - possession of corpse-eating rats, decadent masquerades of morally bankrupt aristocracy, magical scrimshaw, and all the jellied eels you can eat! | |||

Join us in as we revisit the strange and sentimental world of: EarthBound! There's lots to talk about with this cult classic, from its bizarre "scratch and sniff" marketing campaign to how it somehow successfully blends Lovecraftian horror with wide-eyed childlike innocence. We explore the surreal and nostalgic Jungian dreamscape of Magicant, then remark on the absurdity of fighting a sentient pile of puke with psionics. Come along for this eerie-yet-earnest ride. | |||
| Episode 29 - Tunic | 29 Mar 2025 | 00:49:44 | |

We brothers endeavor to relive the glory days of classic RPGs as we play the spiritual successor of the Suikoden games - the kickstarted game Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.
