Canada9 months ago - Came for Suikoden, stayed for ALL the good stuff!
It’s all I ever wanted in two adult gamers: the ability to turn (mainly) JRPGs into marathon therapy sessions. And they also discuss their marathon experiences. No I did not repeat myself!
Do you wanna’ hear some hot sounds I’ve recorded?

Swedena year ago - One of the best out there
If you love Retrospective type podcast this is one of the best out there. They pick great games and take their time going through them. Just the perfect type of podcast for me. It’s like getting to live through these games from my childhood again without having to play all the way through them. Great job guys, I hope there are many more episodes to come.

United Statesa year ago - Very worthwhile for this specific niche
Very in depth playthroughs of old RPGs with lots of in jokes and fun silliness. Great editing, hosts are legitimately very funny.
Apple Podcasts5Aaron MatthewsCanadaa year ago - What a gem
Discovered these guys when I was searching up stuff on Xenosaga (their current season), and saw a back catalog of amazing games. Started with ff8 and am about to do the next season. Chris and Eric are hilarious, insightful, and worth your time to listen to.
Also Fakenet will you marry me.
