Ep. 808 – Super Troll Islands

Super Troll Islands, that’s right. ISLANDS. Plural. So many islands of souless hairy troll faces with their butt jiggly up and down ladder. That’s not me just being weird. THAT IS AN ART ASSET FOR THIS GAME. That makes you need to listen, right? In addition to all this ridiculousness, we do a deep dive back into the 90s with a 20 spot draft of popular trends from the decade. We saw a few movies, we played a few games, we talk about them. Then we dive head first into the warm, colored waters of the Super Troll Islands. Won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 806 – Phalanx

Phalanx strums the old banjo into the halls of TADPOG. Have you heard of Phalanx? Maybe not. Are you millenial? Then you’ll probably recognize the iconic and weird box art. That probably bodes well for us, right? Such well known art for a game that no one really recalls what kind of game it was, yes? ANYWAY, we bring on our foremast old man with banjologist – Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley. We talk about jug bands, box art, visit Ian’s Horror Hole, discuss some books, some Game of Thrones and have some bar related drafts. So if you’ve ever been curious about the game with the weird box art, come sit awhile and listen!

Ep. 804 – Super Goal! 2

Super Goal! 2, that’s right. Punctuation is hard in the SNES era. You also know how soccer games tend to go for us, so is this special? Do we dive in and wash ourselves in a hidden gem of soccer goodness that can reach even our sport game-hardened hearts? We won’t tell. (You probably know the answer). Super Goal! 2 Welcome back ChocoChica to the show after a very long hiatus to join Dave and Ian in trying a bunch of chicken sandwiches blindfolded. We further the chicken game by building our own chicken based meal draft. The hosts also talk some TV shows, some gaming, and a little bit more. So please, come sit awhile and listen! Super Goal! 2

Ep. 803 – Super Bowling

Super Bowling adds maximum oil to its lanes to slide its way onto TADPOG shores. Finally, the last pin has fallen as we have now completed the entire bowling game library for the SNES (there are only 2 games). So we celebrate with a very long 15 spot blind draft, talk about the life and death of Multiversus, some bowling movies, Ian’s Horror Hole movies of the week, pickles, and more. So if you’re a fan of some sweet sweet bowling action and 3 cis white guys talking about it on the Super Nintendo, won’t you come sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 802 – Riddick Bowe Boxing

Riddick Bowe Boxing big daddies its way onto TADPOG shores, courtesy of the revitalized Randomizer (now back with full otherworldly powers). We bring on our foremost Boweologist, Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley. We sample some burgers, ala Good Mythical Morning style, while blindfolded. We discuss the merits of fast food, the history of Nosferatu, the perils of Overwatch 2 and Marvel Rivals, and more. Then we do a pretty deep dive into the particulars of Riddick Bowe Boxing. So won’t you sit awhile and listen?

Ep. 797 – Home Alone 2: Lost in New York

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York wraps up our SNES movie based games list. Farewell to thee, Mini-Randomizer. For a Christmas treat, we do a deep dive into the movie then as deep of a dive as possible into the SNES game. But first we talk about Maury, open some Christmas gifts, visit Ian’s Horror hole, and do the absolute most disgusting thing we have recorded on the show. All hail Dave for such a moment. So please, come sit awhile and listen to all things Home Alone 2 and more – MERRY CHRISTMAS with this little presentation of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.

Ep. 796 – Pink Goes to Hollywood

Pink Goes to Hollywood! Why? TO GET AN AMBURGHEIR? GET IT! STEVE MARTIN! Yes, take this game and pair it with Steve Martin’s 2006 version of The Pink Panther. We roll in strong with talk of the latest shows and anime we’ve watched, stroll into Ian’s Horror Hole then do a pretty deep break down of the movie before jumping into the game talk. Lots of trivia and movie facts abound here. If you like the 60s Pink Panther, the 2000s version, the 90s cartoon or more – then you may find a little place here while we cover Pink Goes to Hollywood!

Ep. 795 – Super Godzilla

Super Godzilla rises from the seas around TADPOG studios, bringing with it Godzilla Minus One for us to watch – since this game doesn’t parallel any Godzilla in particular (as far as we can tell). Of course, Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley – our foremost Godzillologist, joins us. As he did not watch the movie or play the game he is there to be pretty and we love it. So join us as we talk about Jack Black, a made for TV movie starring John Travolta, a 62 hour audio book, building our own boy dinner, and finally Godzilla Minus One and this very very off SNES game. Please, sit awhile and listen to Super Godzilla!
