    It's our final, epic Game of the Year ranking! For the past 8 years, we've celebrated the awesome power that is video games with our GOTY deliberations. We've witnessed the gaming landscape change drastically over the years, but through thick and thin, we've delivered Top 5 lists of our favourite gaming experiences through rowdy and passionate debates. What makes PodCavern's GOTY lists special?

We've gladly poured our blood, sweat, and pixels into this process year after year, playing games like it's our job (it's not!), just to create these lists, celebrate the medium, and frankly, have an excuse to nerd out about a topic that is near and dear to our hearts. But now as this podcast is coming to an end, the day has come for us to rest, put down the controller, and make space for others to marathon video games and create their own lists.

    It ain't easy being cheesy. First, we just want to thank whoever squeezed the first animal udder and decided "Hm, I think i can turn that into one of the most delicious things on the planet". Second, some of the best foods revolve around or include cheese in the dish. From adding that extra zing in your meals, to needing something to snack on, to being a solid pot luck item to parties; cheese does it all. But since the dawn of cheese, there has been MANY different types/flavours that has popped up over the years and that's why we are here today. Join Tuong and Grate Cheese Guests Hayley Kellett, Spencer Dunn, and Simone Dorie as they sample a ton of dairy and make a very gouda Top 5 Cheeses list!

    Rolling for initiative... There are so many activities that exist in the world that us humans do to distract us from life's every day woes and get some much needed R&R. But sometimes, the most fun we can have is as simple as getting a good group of friends together around a table with some paper, dice, and our imagination! Tabletop RPGs have been around forever and one of the very few positives of the pandemic was how much the genre exploded in popularity, and finally being more accepted into the public mainstream. And while most people are really familiar with that one RPG with dungeons and dare I say dragons, there are a bountiful amount of tabletop rpgs that exist in the world waiting to be played! So join Tuong La and his party of misfit companions Sascha Lecours, Josef Addleman, Bryan Robinson, and Jordana Heney (Page of the Wind) as they roll a critical hit on ranking Top 5 Tabletop RPGs.

    I wanna rank it that way. If you were born in the 80's or 90's you know how much Boy Bands and Girl Groups absolutely dominated the music industry. The fabricated personas of a group of 3-5 individuals were all the rage back then from the cute one, the bad boy, the sporty one, the list goes on and on. While they may not be as popular as they used to be, there's something primal that happens when you play a song from one of these groups that transports you back to your pre-teen era; and before you know it you are belting out on a karaoke stage and dancing your face off. So this week join Tuong La and Teen Music Heart Throbs Desiree Connors Warmington, Kristine Shadid, and Marc Quintaneiro as they get down, get down, and move it all around while ranking Top 5 Boy Bands and Girl Groups.
