Double Shift Podcast

Dinner is served! And what's on the menu? Why...it's YOU! Well, hopefully not you...we need all of our fans around... Today we talk about Cannibalism in Video Games. And not the fake kind either. Zombies? Pshh...Danelle HATES zombies. We're talking humans eating other humans! And then we get grossed out about that and starting talking about Tofu. Stay tuned until the end and see what beer or wine...

Have you ever woken up, only to find yourself in strange 1950s town, not knowing who you are? Does your mother bake cookies for a charity event too early and throw them away because they’ll get stale? Ever needed to seek answers from the local cult? Boy I hate when that happens…but it doesn’t need to happen to you! You can simply play the 1990’s PC game called Harvester! This week, we have an epis...

Tune in this week as we blah, blah, blah...you know what? This episode really sucks. The Double Shift Podcast ought to be laid to rest. Yeah. In a coffin! We only come out at night for this episode about our favorite blood suckers. We see what it's like when Van Helsing is more fit for the old folks home, rather than hunting vampires. We get bored of our day jobs, so we join the circus, which is a...

Join us, Double Shift fans, if you dare...for this week's episode is something so creepy, so vile, so juicy...wait juicy? That's right! This weeks episode is TIKI TIME! And what better to celebrate Tiki Time than with a Zombie! NOOOO! Not the drink! The walking undead. The ghouls who rise from their graves, just to feast on our brains. The slow moving infectious disease that aims to end all of man...

People are still making retro games and they are actually releasing physical copies for these old relics! Pretty soon you can even buy one at your favorite Halloween Super Store! Tune in as we gasp at modern features on a...

This episode is difficult to understand. It’s hard to explain. It’s almost like it’s lost in translation… In fact that’s what we’re talking about today! The early days of gaming gave us some great sentences and phrases that don’t quite make sense and we are grateful for it! A Winner is Us, for sure! We also dream about traveling the world just so we can try different McDonald’s menu items! So join...

It's Boxing Day! Well...not the holiday (but we love you, America's Hat...) Today we celebrate boxing video games. From the zany arcade style to the more realistic simulation, we cover it all. We also talk about Michael Jackson. We order Boxing PPVs and eat Korean BBQ. We also talk about Michael Jackson again. We test boxing video game instruction manuals and give a couple game reviews. We also ta...

Hope you're ready for The Next Episode...Hip Hop Anonymous. Hip Hop and Video Games go way back...like, back in the day when we were young (we're not kids anymore...but some days we certainly wish we were). There are some goofy entries, no doubt, in the history of Hip Hop Video Games, but there are some real bangers as well. In fact, some of the best games of all time (in our opinion)! So if you c...

You. Look. MARVEL-lous. With so much Marvel in MCU Movies, it's kinda hard being the Double Shift, you see...but we...somehow, someway...keep coming up with funny, dumb podcast every day. Well...every week at least. But yeah...Marvel comics are awesome! And you better believe there are a lot of FANTASIC Marvel Games out there! So we talk about some of them...well, not all of them fantastic...and c...

We love skateboarding here at the double shift! Can we do it in real life? Heck no! But can we do a kick flip? Heck yes…in video games! Join us as we SKATE OR DIE and dirty old bees chase us around, rad music plays in the background, miracles are performed and for some reason random tv characters that have nothing to do with skateboarding join the show!

What makes a bad game? Well that's just like...your opinion, man! And a lot of people on the internets have those opinions. They organize these opinions in list form and present us with what they think the WORST video games of all time are. We talk about some of these games and try to defend them as best as possible! Making video games is a hard job! So...shut up! Disclaimer: We may or may not alw...

gen·e·sis - the origin or mode of formation of something. Sega Genesis - Sega's 4th Console...wait why did they call it that?!?!?! Anyways, we're not talking about The Genesis today.

This episode is more fun than a barrel of monkeys! What do you think of when you think of video games, barrels and monkeys? Well, if you guessed Donkey Kong...you would be correct! But this episode isn't about him or his barrels. It's about barrels in Capcom Games. That's right...a whole episode by the fact that Capcom loves barrels! We'll sneak in a little more Capcom stuff in there too, but the...

It’s gonna get sloppy! Join us as we talk about games based on Nickelodeon Shows! Were these games in their Prime or just full of Slime? There were so many games that had the Nickelodeon name and there is no way that we have played them all. So eventually, we just made up the plot to these games ourselves! We Double Dare you not to listen and take a trip down memory lane as we eat Turtle Pies, giv...

Let’s All Go To The Moooovieees! And hit up the Movie Theater Arcade first, because this week we’re talking about the ol’ Silver Screen! Well…more so Silver Screen to Video Game Adaptations.

Well, maybe not countless...we counted them. How many you ask? Tune in to find out!

This week the crew talks about questionable Video Games. Mostly, the question is...Bro...WHAAAT?!?! Thanks to games like GTA, most of society is desensitized by crazy Video Games. But there was a time where guys named Larry wore Leisure Suits, Arcade Machines had weird joysticks, General Custer got some sort of Revenge and Mike Tyson made fun of everyone. Some of the games are definitely going to...

On this week’s episode, we sit on the couch! We’ll be playing some Couch Co-Op games together as Mikey becomes Danelle, Danelle mentions Ace Combat yet again, Oddjob chops up and we spell Assume! Strap on that plastic Vinyl and join us as we remember old stuff while making sound effects!

Disclaimer: Paul Rudd and Ethan Supl...

In this week's episode, we take a peek behind the curtain...AH! Sorry sir...wrong curtain... Join us as we relive some stories from our time in the Video Game Industry. This episode is full of Celebrities, Food, Gross Stuff, More Food, Getting yelled at, Even more Food and maybe we mention a Video Game here and there, who knows! We babbled on for so long while recording this that we had to edit it...

In this week's episode, we don't just get sidetracked on food. We talk about Weird Video Game Characters! Well, one of them is a Mushroom so...that is a food. But the rest is just weird video game characters, no food. Well there's Gamer Snax...but we also design a game! About a marshmallow. Darnit!
