Final Fantasy Tactics | E20: Atheism is Only Temporary [Brevenia Free City]

Season 6 · Episode 20

Monday, August 26, 2024 • Duration 55:29

Zodiac stones read the metadata of your heart. You ears read the metadata of us narrowing seven to four, making our name shit, waiting for a new dawn, using the auracite for good actually, false fighting the second pervert, citing heaven, campfire'ing next to corpses, killing jobbers off screen, simultaneously referencing U2 + Queen + Jefferson Airplane, ruining a good name, stripping new hires of their clothes, inflicting atheist effects, and radicalizing another bereaved sibling. Power over spice is power over everything

Final Fantasy Tactics | E19: Perverts Can Never Die [Riovanes Castle]

Season 6 · Episode 19

Monday, August 19, 2024 • Duration 01:02:15

All such tales of gods and their miracles are false. But not us, and not when we're swearing on words that have no honor, realizing scripture is leverage, taking fate into mine own hands, listening to death noises, slaking thirst for revenge, selling out for the lord, perverting into another ghoul, unthinking brains, slaying another pervert, surveying the murder room, frowing up on myself, letting Isilud rest, sparking divinity from Alma, losing days' past, retching our innards, repaying debts with vengeance, throwing a guy off the roof, and killing one to achieve victory over three. You need a broad range of interests or you're going to become like that one guy.

Final Fantasy Tactics | E10: The Most Religious Man Available [Zaland Fort City]

Season 6 · Episode 10

Monday, June 17, 2024 • Duration 01:05:37

Those who live by deceit are the first to die by it. Those who listen to this episode will hear tales of jumping in first-person, rescuing a pony-tailed squire, blinging the magic rocks, climbing walls and talking shit, bringing a gun to a wizard fight, realizing we're in Final Fantasy XII's future, losing patience with Mustadio, finding Christ without a crucifixion, creepin' on some ladies, blowing grass, wishing for no quarrel, leaving us wroth, soiling our names, coddling the boy, sipping villainously, and wondering if Agrias is lost in the sauce. Ramza's brain is discolored.

Suikoden E20: Fury, Chaos, and Anger [Northern Checkpoint & Moravia Castle]

Season 4 · Episode 20

Monday, October 10, 2022 • Duration 01:05:32

I dislike myself intensely when I am fighting. As we experience classic RP Games, we're being infiltrated by a spy, realizing it's not just a drill, rejecting breakfast and surrender, failing an execution, contriving subterfuge, applying a ruse, invading a castle, resting on a guy, busting our boys out of jail, auto-joining man servants, calling upon the city states of Jowston, forcing Kasim into non-violence, utilizing a narcissist, citing Don Quixote's influence, and telling Mathiu his ideas are impossible. I don't mind, but do you really trust me?

Suikoden E19: Another Ted Talk [Seek Valley]

Season 4 · Episode 19

Monday, October 3, 2022 • Duration 59:49

We've had a rough time getting here, and we're taking this stuff. Before that caper, we're romanticizing a studio apartment, wondering if sleeping poison is really poison, foreshadowing the third ingredient, locating the final blacksmith, shattering sentient crystals, obtaining moonlight weed, sorting through another Ted dilemma, fading from existence, picking a big flower, encountering a sober emperor, excommunicating from dragon club, wishing Krin was dead, and deciding exactly one rich guy is honorable. I never thought I'd run into a flower thief on a sleepless night.

Suikoden E18: Cock and Bull Schemes [Dragon's Den]

Season 4 · Episode 18

Monday, September 26, 2022 • Duration 01:02:29

Wishy washy, aren't we? As our glorious island fortress levels up for the final time, we're moving Kimberly in with Tai-Ho, pondering the beef between Mathiu and Leon, explaining Plate Armor, befriending a centenarian cultist, lucking out with Clive's spawn, suffering a denial of service at the Dragon's Den, paying for a dine & dash, sneaking into a cave, discovering the secret of sleeping dragons, obliterating our very presence, and poaching everyone cool at the Dragon Knight's Fortress. There's still time to do the right thing.

Suikoden E17: Lord of Necks [Neclord's Castle]

Season 4 · Episode 17

Monday, September 19, 2022 • Duration 01:06:44

What's wrong? Is there something on my face? After the talking sword sends us to the past, we're meeting Ted in boy form, damning the damned, charing a village, encountering the enigmatic Yuber, cursing Ted with a sorrowful fate, accepting the Star Dragon Sword, recruiting a librarian, reading Old Books in front of a simulated live audience, impressing recruits with our recruits, installing Window in our castle, observing vampire invitation rules, naming a sword to join a party, dramatically playing an organ, cutting off a head, and finally making a woman happy. May the birth of this new warrior be celebrated by all.

Suikoden E16: All My Homies Call Me Starmaster [Warrior's Village & Qlon Temple]

Season 4 · Episode 16

Monday, September 12, 2022 • Duration 01:06:19

We've killed our father. In our slightly-related quest to united rebel factions, we're tripping over fresh graves, investing in a murderer and executioner, dismissing a bloodsucking vampire lord as a rumor, hearing the word NECLORD, finally recruiting Marco, stacking blacksmiths, faking out a lore flashback, testing exactly one gender norm, losing a fight to a vampire, failing to express warrior-sanctioned masculinity, requiring yet another magic weapon, finding Zen and Morgan at a temple, and insulting a talking sword. We are destined to gather together under Master Tir's sign.

Suikoden E15: Machiavellian as Shit [Battle with Teo, Part II]

Season 4 · Episode 15

Monday, September 5, 2022 • Duration 59:06

Our father is a loser but we're still not winners. Before the rematch, we're wondering how many spears are on fire, entering a town that's a dungeon, finding trust in eyes, stopping the thieving dipshit network from harassing a tall lady, paying a freelance ninja, required boats for land transport, shaking Kun To down for those boats, burning down armored cavalry, battling father against son, denying decapitation, bludgeoning our father who will soon art in heaven, and receiving hell powers. What do you plan to leave in the wake of your battle?
