HEY WE BOTH GOT CATS! So yeah, I hope you like cat talk, because there’s a lot of that this week, and probably for the foreseeable future. DEAL WITH IT. When we’re not busy being belligerent about our cat content, we’re also playing new games, old games, and new versions of old games. We also have things to say about Summer Game Fest, but more impo…

Video games are great! And also video games suck a whole lot! Both things are true in Flavortown. EVERYTHING is true in Flavortown. It’s a place with no rules, but also with ALL the rules. You get what we’re saying? Don’t worry, friends. You will. Oh, YOU WILL. Games We Are Playing: Stellar Blade, Peglin, Cocoon, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Dragon A…

Even Logan Paul’s Prime can’t stop this podcast. Elaine and Leah discuss Stardew Valley’s 1.6 update (and the level of obsession it is causing in Elaine’s house) and a current steam sale (and the problems for both our houses). The ladies also probably wax lyrical about some absolute nonsense while describing their bad life choices. BUCKLE IT ON UP.…

You know how sometimes when you’re young you make really bad decisions and then you’re over it in like a day? Well, we’re here to tell you that those same bad decisions are SO MUCH WORSE when you get old. Really, I promise you. SO much worse. This is all to say that you shouldn’t buy the 25 ounce Rita. I know it sounds funny, but it’s pretty awful,…

Is it possible for video games to suck and to be awesome at the same time? Turns out it is! We are very excited about one half of those things this week, and we’ll let you guess which. Well, you probably don’t have to guess, actually. You could just listen to the podcast. Join us as we discuss cross-breeding flowers, horrific versions of beloved ma…

Hello friends! It is our ONE HUNDREDTH EPISODE! CELEBRAMOS!! Aside from poisoning our insides with questionable beverages (and snacks), we are also here to give you the sickest, hottest, hypest news and chat about video games. Are those things that the youths say? We don’t really know, but probably! Games We Are Playing: Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Tekk…

We play games that were released this decade. Sometimes? It’s not exactly our preferred time period, I suppose. Come along with us as we explore old games, new games, short games, long games, and just ALL the games. Hey, send us listener mail! It would brighten our lives if you did.

We know what you guys want. You want talk about video games, right? ….right? Okay, okay. You probably also want us to talk about weird stuff, eat weird snacks, and read a whole bunch of listener mail. Well, brothers and sisters, WE HAVE GOT YOU COVERED. Enjoy!

We really are SO DUMB. Like, seriously. We pretty regularly discuss how bemused it makes us that people still listen to us after all this time, but it’s really apparent this week. So… thanks?

The season of pumpkin spice is upon us, but what season is that, really? Winter? Summer? Winter in the podcast, summer in the outtakes? If you are confused, we suggest that you press Y to podcast. Or to call Zobek. Or to call zombees? Perhaps all of the above are appropriate responses. It can’t hurt to try, anyway. Summer in the links…. Assassin’s …

Seems like everything is centered around a theme this week, and that theme is boats. The secondary theme is T-Pain, but you guys can probably guess how we feel about that.

Here at Some Other Podcast, we have differing opinions on the place of pumpkin spice and other fall flavors. This should come as no surprise, given the food-related polarization of this show, but... well, we know how you guys love it when we fight about stuff, so here you go! There may also be some sort of talk about video games, but we're not real…

Pickle juice and Peeps and Redline and terrible chips and WHO KNOWS! Apparently there are a lot of things we have to eat on this show, and they all seem like a good idea when we've been drinking.

It's only ONE revelation, apparently. More than one would cause our feeble little brains to implode. Maybe more Vitamin D would solve this problem?

This is one of the very first commentary tracks that we recorded, back when the podcast was still in its infancy, and was still even occasionally about video games instead of weird snack foods, or questionable energy drinks, or sandwich preferences. You know, we really do talk about food a lot, don't we? Huh.Anyway, here's what I remember about thi…

I really never know what day it is due to all kinds of weird scheduling taking place, so it's not a huge surprise that I think it's Friday sometimes. It FEELS like Friday, anyway.

Here at Some Other Castle, we're no strangers to talking about movies, particularly when they're related to video games. And honestly, the worse the movie is, the better our commentary is likely to be. That's the way we see it, anyway. We're hoping to release a few of our vintage efforts in the near future, and we're planning to record new ones soo…

Is this even a show about games anymore? We don't really know. It is a place where we can drink Mang-O-Ritas, though. And maybe eat Bacon Ritz, or shrimp chips, or any number of things that are gastronomically questionable. Apparently you guys like that?

There's a lot of anger surfacing in this week's episode, but it's not about the things you might expect, like unspecified nerd rage. It's mostly about Christmas music, actually.

Some of the things we've been playing this week are probably about what you'd expect, but some... well, there are some wildcards, too. All I can say is that when you're expecting Beyond but find empty space, strange things can happen. Good things, though! Also, if you're curious about our detailed thoughts on sherbet, we put some time into discussi…

Hey, you guys. Hey. HEEEEEEY. We may not have played a whole lot of games since the extravaganza that was Extra Life 2013 (which is all archived on twitch.tv/etdragon, just in case you were wondering), but we still have plenty to talk about this week.

We had SO MUCH to talk about this week after missing two shows that things are a bit all over the place (which is why my title isn't more snappy...but we can also blame that on jet lag).

We have lots of stories this week, which may or may not be related to video games.
