Episode 39 - Meth Pebbles

This week, we talk about colonial singsong, sexy dinosaurs, high-pitched voices, Coopers Pale, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers SNES game, and Sandsky's newfound mind-reading powers. In the news - the ACT approves the R18+ rating, Sony Studios Liverpool closes its doors, as does Nintendo Power magazine, Harmonix is looking for a 'Combat Designer', Peter Molyneux's new game is delayed by NASA, Psychonauts is coming to the PSN, Minecraft adds baked potatoes and carrots, MMORPGs are expensive when you are a kid, and Nintendo celebrates Kirby with a room full of chuckleheads chewing gum. We take some viewer mail from Evil Ex-Girlfriend Sage Juan, talk about violence and Paris, and then check in with our favourite segment: Ask SSJ, which prompts discussions of Tourette's syndrome, misplaced pride, NSFW jokes, Crystal Pepsi, the Australian potato chip market, and the ethics of posting naked pictures on the internets.

Episode 38 - Mead For Speed

This week, suffering under technical difficulties, we talk about Apple's wrongdoings, mead, memes, Out To Dinner, Magic: The Gathering 2013, Virtual Chess 64, SNES, and a new (real) job. Sony kills it at Gamescom - Crossbuy, Until Dawn, Puppeteer, Rain, Killzone: Mercenary and Tearaway are all announced. The Vita won't be getting a price cut this year, Capcom announce a terrible new Mega Man game, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia gets an English translation, Capcom announce a sexy new Inception clone, Ubisoft confirm Rayman Legends will be a WiiU exclusive, the PlayStation Plus service gets even better, and Diablo III gets a free trial. We discuss the colour of the Big Apple, potential tattoos (by the way, here's that Whitest Kids U'Know sketch), lisps, Snagglepuss, and Seinfeld impressions.

Episode 37 - Is That A Lobster In Your Pocket Or Are You Just Happy To Sea-Meat? (feat. Lara McConnell!)

This week, with special guest Lara McConnell, we talk about MySpace, the Andy Richter scale, being a strong independent black woman who don't need no man, Slender, OWOTP Maude Garrett, LA Noire, our stories from the weekend (including orgies, spitting, 'knighting', pretty girls, disembodied nipples, and our favourite 'djuo', PBJ). In gaming news, we recap the Ouya's Kickstarter drive, Windows accidentally announce a new Xbox (then cover it up), Blizzard's security is breached, Epic Games hire Big Huge Games alumni, Ubisoft delays Assassin's Creed III on PC, Beyond Good & Evil HD gets a retail release, and Jet Set Radio HD gets a release date and price. And finally, Ask SSJ leads to discussions of pets, farts, peanut butter, some terrifically stupid injuries, and ways to deal with a hobo infestation.

FREE ADVICE: Generally speaking, if you're going to ask for a girl's phone number, avoid using the phrase "exchange telephone numbers". It is unwieldy and you will quite likely end up laughing at your own foolishness.

More free advice: If we invite you to be on SSJ, don't fall asleep on the way here.

Episode 36 - Chick Fillet

This week, we talk about Jurassic Park, intolerance, perry, Street Fighter IV, bare-footedness, dangerous drug tests, the Grim Rapper, and the mass extinction of the human race. Farming Simulator 2013 is announced, GTA V viral marketing begins, Square Enix backs the Ouya, Star Wars: The Old Republic goes free-to-play, World of Warcraft loses a million subscribers, we have an argument so bad it's censored in post, Sony loses $312 million, Capcom wins big on Dragon's Dogma, someone wastes a bunch of money on eBay, and Google aims to stop shady knock-off apps. Then we bring back Ask SSJ, where we talk about breast implants, money-saving tips, best friends, and the story of our new mascot, Hank the lobster-scorpion hybrid. We also talk about the death of our intern Franken, laugh tracks, Tom's drug habit, Peter Pan, Tom's perplexing genitals, and tease-able names. Which one of us do you think is Hitler?
