This week we scale five floors of the Devil’s Temple and punch our way through hoards of vest-wearing minions in order to talk about Kung Fu, the 1984 side-scrolling beat ’em up for the NES. We also talk about Tyler’s birthday, Jerry Stiller (of course), marriage, and bidets. We open a package from Sandwich Pope Phil and we play a few listener voicemails.

This week we channel our rage in the form of rippling muscle and talk about Abobo’s Big Adventure between bouts of uncontrollable “fury shrieks”. Ah, now that’s what I call podcasting! We can’t help but make comparisons to Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden. We also open a mysterious package from a mysterious listener.

The year is 19XX. The nuclear war was not friendly to the world. Crawling out from underneath the irradiated rubble are two young men brave enough to discuss Double Dragon II: The Revenge—Tyler and Dave. Yes, the quest to play all 30 games on the NES Classic continues! There’s a “Double Quiz” courtesy of Sandwich Pope Phil, in addition to conversation about Billy and Jimmy. We also talk about incest, potty training, and reveal Bowser Junior’s secret identity. We also answer some voicemail! Continue reading

BARF! This week we’re talking about River City Ransom: Underground by Conatus Creative, the new follow-up to the 1989 NES cult-classic River City Ransom. Of course you remember that Blake joined us to talk about the original River City Ransom way back in 2015 (Episode 184 for those keeping score at home). Here at TADPOG we strongly believe in tradition as long as it’s cheap and convenient. So…good news, everyone (spoken in the best Professor Farnsworth impression we can muster)! We asked Oathbreaker Blake Woods to join us on this episode. Rhythm Master Paul Corn enters the fray as a new challenger who tells a poop story. Continue reading

Hello, we’re just two boys who took some time out of our day to talk about Double Dragon IV. ‘Wait a minute! That’s one of those new-fangled vidjya game releases, right?’ Why yes, Imaginary Disembodied Voice, it is! Well, kinda. We’ll get into that a little bit on this episode, don’t worry. But first we’ll share sexy stories! And we promise there is a Dragon Quiz somewhere in this episode. Continue reading

TADPOGlodytes! We must take up arms to defeat the profound evil that has invaded TADPOG Nation! Just like history’s great warriors Cuauhtemoc, Miyamoto Musashi, and William Wallace, we compare and discuss Golden Axe and Golden Axe II for the Sega Genesis. During our epic journey through beat ’em up fantasy, we pause to replenish our health and invigorate our spirits by opening a package from listener Shane Davis. We cower in fear before a urethral plug and suffer defeat to a volley of voice mail complications. Enjoy! Continue reading

After exploring Avenues of Aggression and Freeways of Frustration, we settled on playing Streets of Rage, the 1991 Beat ‘Em Up for the Sega Genesis. We’re technically supposed to be talking about Streets of Rage 2, which is Digital Trends’ 10th-ranked best Sega Genesis game, but we’ve already talked about that one. Instead we’re taking it back to the old school (’cause I’m an old fool who’s so cool). We open a package from Bloody Handed Otaku Jack of Ziggy Moons Mike H. We recast a few television shows and we pitch a few game ideas.

Bailey Warr, of the Hops and Heroes podcast, joins us to talk about her favorite Sega Genesis game: Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker. Yes, of course we talk about the controversy that swirled around the life of the King of Pop! Tyler tells a story which harkens back to early TADPOG episodes in tone and subject matter, we also gush about Conan O’Brien for a little bit, (and don’t worry) we totally talk about dutch ovens too.
