    We're back with a lil' ol special episode of the Bad Melee Podcast recapping the Roast of Hugo Gonzalez. Each person on the cast had a very different role in the event, with everyone pressing the heads of their penises together to make a giant roast Megazord. We go through the writing process, wax philosophical on the concept of accreditation, talk about a few hiccups with the tournament, and if we really are in the era of too much Ludwig.

    Welcome to the second annual post-Bigger Balcony podcast. A bit of a departure from last year as nobody almost got into a fistfight at the venue and Ludwig was not present to show his nutsack during mafia, this year's Project M tournament still left us with plenty to discuss. With several actors as Balcy the Bro Sun, PM being streamed on Twitch with seemingly no repercussions, a hentai connoisseur taking the title yet again, and our dear friend Guntherz getting cheated out of win, the illegal tournament once again forged memories of friendship and strife that we will carry to our graves.

    Special circumstances have led a very sorry individual to our podcast, where he takes us through his life's journey leading him to place 5th at Summit of Power, as well as describes in great detail the story of how he was DQ'd from EVO Top 8. We finally pinpoint which Seinfeld characters each member of the podcast is, with some startling revelations about who is and isn't Newman, and talk about the mechanics and implications of the new SmUsh game. After attending E3, only one questions remains: Are we truly gamers that have lost our way, or is it kids who are wrong?
