Need For Speedrunning

Look, space travel is hard. We lost Hobz, Luigi wet himself, and we almost got eaten by the friendliest deep sea fangly fish. Join Rubie, Bradley, and Luigi as they blast off in a wooden space ship to get the band back together.

It’s that time of year again, where we copy paste the episode description of a previous time we looked at a GDQ schedule. Can you figure out which one we used? Maybe it’s from SGDQ 2023, maybe not. Oh ho, I wish I was you right now, you little detective you.

Please be seated… we gather on this fine Sunday morning to rejoice in fellowship and thank our lord and savior Gnarfas for our many many blessings. Be they going fast, hot zip lines, baby goats, and no really but how he make us go so fast. Centaur Daddy will be around shortly with the donation plate, so please give generously to the Patreon so you can hear the commentary at https://www.patreon.com...

For this week’s episode, we’re taking a look at more speedruns that we think people should know about! Luigi, Rubie, and Hobz each bring two (or more) games they feel need at least some kind of promotion, and also Fallout for unknown reasons. Feel free to hit us up with your recs in the comments or on discord. Support the show at https://www.patreon.com/possiblybad Check out the runs we watched on...

Oyyyyyyyyyyyyyy it's time for Need For Speedrunning! This time we check in everyone's favorite little guy, Toon Link and his boat... well not so much his boat... or his sister... or Tetra really.

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at a GDQ event? Wonder no more because Rubie is here to tell you all about how... it says here they broke their toe during the marathon. Can you imagine getting that hurt and still going on with the show? What a professional that Rubie is, what a fighter. When I grow up, I wanna be like Rubie. List of runs from Frost Fatales 2024

Look, pick any class you want. It doesn't matter. The second we get in the boss fight, Hobz is going to turn into an invisible bear and go sick house on their asses. In the meantime, why don't you hide in the corner with Rubie, Brad, and Luigi, cause they're talking about the Baldur's Gate 3 speedrun and D&D in general. Head here to see maeeeeee's run: https://www.youtube.c...

When that Bruno music starts playing in the distance, you know what time it is! Time to nestle into the corner of your couch, hold your Bruce close to you, and watch speedruns of holiday movie tie-in games.

…and you said you are here to see Samus? Well it might be a minute as she's currently running in place as she slowly moves through a wall. But maybe Rubie, Hobz, or Luigi can help you? After all, they watched and did a breakdown of the speedrun, AND they're obeying the laws of physics right now. Honestly that's probably the better option, considering Samus just shot through the ceiling...

It happens all the time. You're scrolling through GDQ vods, and you see a category with something crazy like Low% in the title.

Hot behind! Ya know, you gotta be careful in the kitchen. Never know when chef will hit you with a tomato or some unbread big boy will crash through the back door looking for a side of ranch. Lucky for us head chef Rubie and sous chef Jhobz are here to make sure service goes smoothly. If you're hungry, grab a slice of that leftover cheese pizza while you get your apron on.
