UNLOCKED Videogames Are Ok Maybe? - Episode 1 - THE SAUCE 29.05.2019

UNLOCKED FOR ALL TO HEAR! Welcome to a brand new VGATWTOE offshoot where for once we stop ruthlessly demolishing reactionary chud gamers and actually talk about what games we've been playing and enjoying. Sickening, I know, but we both basically wanted an excuse to talk about divinity original sin and how amazing it is so we'll overlook this off-brand optimism. Topics covered: Nuclear take about a...

Episode 19 - Rich Freaks 08.02.2019

Grease up the goose and get ready as a new VGATWTOE dawns. Honored guests, Terry Bolvanga and Victor, swing by to compare business cards and gossip about Paul Allen.

Reese weeps at the terrible tale of the two hundred dollar preorder while Alton revels in the chance to merk his greatest...

After gestating for endless millenia, a new episode of the VGATWTOE experience hatches from its shell.

Episode 11 - Sorry For Horny 23.09.2018
