Everything To Guppy is a weekly comedy/gaming podcast that releases four 15-minute episodes in a single hour-long chunk every Tuesday for reasons that seemed good at the time. Gary Butterfield (Watch Out For Fireballs) and William Hughes (The A.V. Club) attempt to analyze every single item, boss, character, and concept in the rogue-lite video game The Binding Of Isaac. They manage to pull it off o...

People love incremental and idle games. Kole's ambivalent. Gary hates them. Somehow this turned into an extremely on-topic mini-WOFF! about the genre at large, with Cookie Clicker as the starting off point. Welcome to Hell!

Edit: There was a problem with the first version of this that is fixed now. If you hear overlapping audio at the start you can delete and re-download. I apologize for the error! - K This week we pick up on the road above Sellia, to the cliffs above to save the poor girl Millicent at the behest of the strange sage Gowry. Then, we proceed northward beyond the giant skull to Greyoll's Dragonbarrow, a...

Welcome to the introduction! In this episode we take an opportunity to introduce ourselves, the show, and how we plan to approach Breaking Bad with our commentary. We also describe our own histories with the show, and give a rundown of how Breaking Bad got picked up, along with an introduction to the main cast. It's an eventful episode, to be sure. New episodes release every other Saturday, so we...

When a baby is on a girder, you KNOW Gary Butterfield is on the scene. This unreleased prototype of a Lemmings-like game where you play as an angel stopping a baby from crawling into calamity is actually not terrible, just bizarre. Also bizarre? The movie "Baby's Day Out" was popular enough in India to warrant three different adaptations in different languages... including one named, and we're not...

Kole, Ben, Dennis, and David talk about Rocksmith+, Fallout 76 Expeditions: The Pitt, Timberborn, and much more! The Grind: David: Fallout 76 Expeditions: The Pitt. Destiny 2.

How far can an excellent premise carry a game? Looks like it's more than 2 hours but less than 5. Carrion has an unbeatable premise, a hall of fame premise, and aesthetics to back it up. Why on earth is it not more fun to play? Listen and find out!

Say what you will about stop motion animation, there's an undeniable degree of difficulty associated with it that makes it a little more impressive than CGI emulating the clay sculpture style. This is the core hubris of the "Wallace and Gromit " people hooking up with Dreamworks to make "Flushed Away", a story about a posh surface rat getting flushed down the toilet to fight a frog king. And then...

Sellia is a town in Caelid that holds many secrets, sealed away behind an impenetrable puzzle that involves lighting three torches. A strange sage named Gowry acts as our guide, sending us to the Aeonian Swamp to recover a cosmic artifact before directing us to the heart of Selia to learn where these people came from, and why the Golden Order had turned a vicious eye toward them in the past.

On this episode, we cover: Power Pack #28, X-Factor #11, Uncanny X-Men #212, Daredevil #238. And boy, that Daredevil issue. Dubya Tee Eff. Reminder that you can read along with and ahead of the show by subscribing to Marvel Unlimited (we don't get paid for you doing that, so it's not an ad, it's just a cool service). You can also use Comixology, or buy the trades from your local comic book shop (t...

Nintendo shows details about...

Venom Snake still has some fights to fight, as we pick up Skull Face's trail in Afghanistan to experience the majority of what the Phantom Pain has to offer. As a genuine heads up, this episode might not be for you if you adore this game or Hideo Kojima's whole vibe. We clown on things while gushing about the play, which some people take us as completely hating the whole experience. If you will ta...

Better late than never, right? Even if it's 21 years too late. 1986 saw the release of "An American Tail", a Don Bluth-animated film about a family of mice that fled Russia to head to America... 1986 being, of course, one of the last times that an optimistic story about immigration could be told in America. Then, in 2007, some weirdos decided to make a licensed game about it. One that even manages...

This week we continue our journey along the Caelid Highway, down further into the wilds of the rot-blighted land. Starting at the Smouldering Wall, we venture into Fort Gael and the prison complex beneath it, before reaching the swamps and dragons of the southern reaches. Next week we will turn northward into Selia and the Aeonian Swamp, ground zero of Malenia's blossoming.

Thank you Jade! What do you do when there's a Kojima about? What do you do when a game has some of the best stealth action in video games, one of the most satisfying loops in video games, but punctuates it with some of the worst boss fights and clumsy exposition and plotting? It's a complicated game that gives us complicated feelings! Listen in if you want to hear us wrestle with Kojima's legacy,...

This premium episode is about Jackie Chan's Stuntmaster, a PlayStation game that makes you realize that stunts are only cool when it's actual people doing them. A computer game character can, by definition, do anything its creator tells it to. But this middling beat-em-up provides a good springboard for us to talk about Gary's most recent thrift store find, an amateur comic from the '80s called "C...

Nyah, see? Myah. That's mobster talk, because we're talking about a pair of ZX Spectrum games which concern themselves with various illegal dealings in 1919. The roaring teens! Establish protection rackets, run hooch, pinch nanners, flip gatorboys, if it's illegal you can do it all. As long as it fits within the "Lemonade Stand" format.

This week we begin our hunt for General Radahn, who continues to arrest the stars from his current home in the wastelands of Caelid. We know where to find him, but the trick is making our way to him across this blighted, rotted, poisoned land. Specifically, this episode covers everything along the Caelid Highway from north to south, until you reach the Smoldering Wall. There are several minidungeo...

Bugsnax is a cute indie that caught a lot of attention with its catchy theme song, but did you know there's a whole game behind that song? We play this cute combination of Pokemon Snap and Ape Escape, navigating Snaktooth Island and catching bugs who happen to be snacks. The goal? To help the townspeople and learn the truth of what's really happening on this island, with these snacks who happen to...

Each quarter we dip into our big bag of questions, find the ones that have gone unanswered, and round them up for this bonus show. This quarter we cover a variety of topics, including demo disks, whether or not we'd like to Total Recall all media, the importance of user experience, and much more. Thanks for your support!
