We don't contend with mediocrity that often. So far, the closest we got was Pac Man 2, and that doesn't really count since it's so weird. Captain Skyhawk doesn't really belong here. You fly around and shoot some aliens and stuff, you do a bunch of different kinds of missions, and the graphics aren't terrible. Instead of complaining, just have stories about Kole's childhood and Gary's balloon fetis...

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross plunge into their second episode about Final Fantasy VII. The chase continues as Sephiroth flees ever northward. As we follow him, we reveal more of his past… but mostly uncover more mysteries about What Exactly is Going On Here. Also, we spend a great deal of time talking about… you guessed it… Aeris’s death. Get your tissues ready, the waifu goes down. The next epi...

This is the singularity that happens when 1000 bad ideas try and cram their way into a premise that isn't promising. This is our first mascot platformer... any why not live life to the hilt?

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross take their discussion of the first part of Final Fantasy VII to the limit. This is the beginning of a long saga. Not just for one of the most popular games ever, but for our discussion of it. Final Fantasy VII is kind of controversial, which is probably why we love it so goddamned much. We dedicate these three hours to talking about the first portion of the game in d...

The death of the artist class.  Well, this is the end. Yes, I'm OK, yes I still deal with a lot of this, yes I'm proud of DIV, yes something is coming in it's place, no I don't know how to live and be creative, no I don't know how to adjust my attitude. Thanks to everyone who helped make the show what it was/lended their talents. Briefly: Jon Wolff, Derek Hayes, Ben Crickenburger, Nick Glauber, Ko...

Welcome to Boletaria. There's some stuff you should know. Fear not, because Gary and Kole are not dead. Even though we've exhaustively covered Dark Souls, there are still more Souls left to conquer. This begins season two of our show, in which we discuss Demon's Souls in depth. Fans of the show will find no surprises here... we're still talking about every stage in Demon's Souls in a way that brin...

IT'S A METAPHOR Well, here is the big crazy ending to Dead Idea Valhalla. I bring as much back as I can. Thanks a lot to Kole for his help with narration and thanks to everyone who listened the first time and who listened in reruns! Oh, and I'm OK!

It's amazing what a man can do to pay his rent these days.

Kris and Kole talk about academic dishonesty, fulfillment, and minimum wage. Suggested Talking Points: Keep pounding. An academic sham. The Pounding Continues. Hop up on this toxic dick. Coffee stops suicide. He got what he wanted, then died. Stay down. Buried in a steak monster. Kole talks for way too long about minimum wage. San Andreas Memorial Hospital. Bees. Trapped in the walls.

Gary moved this week to his brand new home in a one room apartment outside the Dorito Factory. You'll hear all about it next week. Until then...

Kole has become unstuck in time. This is the epicenter of his primary dissonance: how can he be a 26 year old man, but appreciate Road Runner cartoons and Nick at Nite? The only explanation involves temporal fuckery, and a holistic approach to why he is entirely out of touch with this modern American world. Dream on, and play a bad platformer, you pilgrim of the (pre)modern age.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross express a chilly attitude toward Indigo Prophecy. It’s the strongest opening in adventure game history: Lucas Kane has murdered a man in cold blood, and he has no idea why. The rest of the game is dedicated to unraveling this mystery… and the answer is disappointing.
