IGN UK Podcast

There's frankly too many video games and films coming out next year, but Cardy, Matt and Dale have done their best to cover all of them. Sorry if we missed any, but I feel like we talked enough. Too much even, you be the judge. We didn't even have enough time to talk about TV. There's probably loads of that as well. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@...

Merry Christmas! Joe, Dale and Cardy are here to fill your day with even more joy by playing a few Endless Search games with you. So huddle round the fireplace, grab a bottle of mulled wine and enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

IGN does lots of Movie and TV of the Year Award categories, but we just can't cover everything. That's where IGN UK comes in, to dish out awards for the stuff no one else will. Want to know what the Best Performance from Someone Not Called Joaquin Phoenix was? Cardy has you covered. Want to know who the 4.0 GPA award for Best School Film goes to? Matt will tell you. And who will take home the much...

It's Star Wars Day! Alex, Dale and Cardy are here to spoil everything about Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker. Do not listen to this podcast unless you've seen the film. I really can't stress that enough. It would be a really stupid thing to do. Don't do it. But do enjoy. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com Learn more about your ad cho...

The Firm™ is back and we have another 2 seasons worth of updates for your ears. After Dale's amazing back-to-back promotions, can he maintain the same pace with Coventry City? Joe saw unprecedented success in his first season at Real Betis, has he peaked too soon? And Cardy regails us in a story of highs, lows and betrayal with his Rochdale run. Oh, and we've got another 3 copies of Football Manag...

IGN does lots of Game the Year Award categories, but we just can't cover everything. That's where IGN UK comes in, to dish out awards for the stuff no one else will. Like the game that makes kids call you lame on the tube, or the game that makes you feel smarter than you ever actually will be, or the game that work made us frightened of. All of those awards and more are handed out in this retrospe...

There's not much going on with video games at the moment so this week Cardy, Joe and Matt talk all about them movies. There's new Bond and Black Widow trailers to dissect, plus Matt has seen 1917 and tells us why its an absolute banger. Joe got the chance to speak with Joker director Todd Phillips which inspired us to come up with our own pitches for DC movies, the directors we'd like to see make...

We're back for another 90 minutes (that was unintentional, we just talk a lot) of chat about our burgeoning Football Manager careers. Joe, Dale and Cardy have finished their second seasons at Betis, Coventry and Rochdale, with varying levels of GREAT SUCCESS. We also have an untitled little Football Manager game, and some incredible stories of managements past you sent through to us. Oh, and we've...

Dale, Cardy and Joe - the Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci of podcasting - have convened this week to pour praise on The Irishman, pour slightly more cryptic praise on Parasite, check in on Death Stranding and Jedi: Fallen Order, and then talk some Mandalorian spoilers at the very end. The Endless Search brings back the insanely difficult quote translation game in nicer form, which is fun....

Look, Disney owns everything now. It more than likely owns one of us on the show and we just don't know about it - Dale, probably, he's the most marketable. We can't do anything about that, so here's a podcast where talk about some of its High Quality Star Wars Products in great detail. On top of that, we've got a Star Wars-themed Endless Search, a bit of Star Wars-themed feedback and, er, someone...

Some of us here at the IGN UK office spend more time than is healthy - both professionally and medically - talking about Football Manager. That's why we've finally given into our desires and created a spin-off podcast all about the newest game in the series, Football Manager 2020. Welcome to It's Football Day, our twice-monthly show all about the greatest spreadsheets on this sweet Earth of ours....

This week we have special superstar guest Sydnee Goodman join Cardy and Joe to tell them all about a frankly bizarre sounding childhood filled with pun-slinging cartoon dogs, pineapple haired teens and clipping her own ears back to create leprechaun ears. It's a wild ride. Cardy's been playing that new Pokemon Sword and Shield game so talks about that for a bit, plus the trailer showdown of the ce...

Look, we know you're expecting Death Stranding chat this week... and that's exactly what you're getting. Dale and Joe's impressions of Kojima's latest is succulently sandwiched between two beautifully baked slices of wholemeal in the shape of Cardy and Alex's trials with Modern Warfare's Spec Ops, and excitement for Overwatch 2. Go On Name Them makes a glorious return and the Cardy's Football Mana...

Look, we know you're expecting Death Stranding chat this week... but we're not allowed to talk about that. Come back! We promise we have so much more! We've got hot, steaming opinions about Modern Warfare, Luigi's Mansion 3, and Doctor Sleep for you - it's a pop culture bonanza, baby. This week's Endless Search also includes a major last-minute twist for the second week in a row. Is this the best...

Could it be real? Could there really be another good Terminator film in the world? It seems so, and that's one of the plethora of topics on the table in this week's IGN UK Podcast. Matt's seen it, and he's got a few thoughts on why - for better and for worse - it's the best one since T2. Not only that, but we've got an interview with stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton on the show, too....

In this week's thrilling installment of the IGN UK Podcast, Dale has a Halloween-themed Cadbury's Creme Egg that he's desperate to eat. But will he get to the gooey centre before Cardy takes it for himself? You'll have to listen to the whole 'cast to find out.  Thankfully that shouldn't be too much of an arduous task, as there's plenty to discuss. Matt's been to EGX to play Marvel's Avengers, incl...

It's podcast day, and Joe, Jesse, and Matt have come together to discuss what may be their game of the year: Disco Elysium. Never heard of it? Then you're in the right place for hugely enthusiastic, incredible weird chat about this massive, strange detective RPG.  If RPGs where you get into arguments with your neck tie aren't your thing, then there's also plenty of discussion about the two big co-...

It's a podcast of two halves this week. In the first half, we talk through a whole heap of new film trailers we've been watching recently, cover Apex Legends' new map (and all it's lovely colours, for some reason), and play another lovely game of Mr. Lister's Quiz Shootout. But the second half is deeper, darker, spoilier. We've just seen Joker, and Joe, Cardy and Matt convened to talk it through i...

Cardy, Dale, and Matt sit down at the UK Podcast table this week to discuss a plethora of delights, starting with the exploits of Mr. Joaquin Phoenix in this year's other other big comic book movie, Joker. Matt and Cardy have also been to see Rian Johnson's latest, Knives Out, and discuss why it's a great pallet cleanser following The Last Jedi. There's also some quickfire takes on Call of Duty: M...

Cardy & Joe have both been reviewing games this week so gather round the podcast table for layers of critical thought. Link's Awakening has been remade for the Switch so Joe tells you why that's a banger and Cardy has done FIFA again so explains what's up with the footballs this year. Borderlands 3 also gets its fair share of debate time. Meanwhile, Dale is convinced that new Netflix show "The I-L...

Tokyo Game Show is happening right now, bringing big revelations about some of Japan's biggest games. So you know what that means: long chats about what the hell is going on in Death Stranding. Joe, Cardy and Matt discuss Kojima's latest revelations, and it looks like we finally know what you do in the game. There's more than Thermos babies to discuss, though. We've been playing a duo of delights...

Matt has seen IT Chapter Two and not only does tell us his feelings, but he also shares his interview he did with the film's director, Andy Muschietti. But that's not the only scaries we have this week. In what feels like an early halloween, we have three spooky games to bang on about. Dale has played Blair Witch and has a lot of thoughts about the game and the history of the series. Jesse talks a...

If you aren't from the UK, you might not be aware that we aren't getting Disney+ along with the rest of the world. We have some stuff to say about that.  Once we've gone through the stages of grief, we have time to talk about The Mandalorian, new Disney and Star Wars series, and Control. We even squeezed in a chat with Brian Froud, the genius behind the many, many designs of creatures in The Dark...

Look, Gamescom was very busy, so we recorded the special when we got back. Inauthentic? Yes. Tired? Also yes. But we are at least comprehensive. That's why you get big hunky chunks of Death Stranding, Disintegration, Marvel's Avengers, The Endless Cylinder and more. Also, Joe turned Farming Simulator into an actual game! (Sorry, Germany). And remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast,...

16 Podcasters, 300 audience members, 1 live band and 500 episodes. This is the IGN UK Podcast's 500th episode live spectacular!  We roped in a whole host of voices from past and present to join us live at London's famous 100 Club. With four panels of four, we talked about our favourite memories from the last ten years of podcasts. We also had not one, but three of our favourite Endless Search game...
