Happy Christmas and Merry Holidays to all! It's the 2025 season finale of RPGrinders and it is one of the best of the year! Don't worry, because we will be back in 2026. Until then, enjoy this last episode of the latest news, reviews, and some special surprises. (That aren't actually surprises because we already said we would do them!) With only a week left in this weak ass year, there are no new releases to announce. That's okay because 2026 will soon be here and with it, new games a plenty. The next few months alone will see the releases of Escape From Ever After, Ariana and the Elder Codex, and MegaMan Starforce Legacy Collection. Enough games to keep us all occupied through the long winter months. In the holiday spirit of "scary ghost stories," Frank reviews one of most popular horror franchises of all time. I won't spoil the surprise, but I will say that Santa Claus isn't the only thing keeping children up late at night. Every year, the Grinders give our top pics in RPG gaming. Even a crappy year like 2025 has had some fantastic releases. For the first time ever, the Grinders all choose a game from one certain franchise. Retro games remade for the modern error without losing the charm of the originals. What were once just 2D pixels are now rich 3D worlds to explore. Stagnant enemies are now in full motion and looking far better than ever. What are those games? I won't spoil the holiday fun! Go sit on Santa's lap, maybe he'll tell you. Santa Claus has a Naughty List of all the children who misbehave; however, it pales in comparison to the RPGrinders weekly 2025 Stinkos. Genocidal mad men are murdering innocent fishermen and trying to start wars. Racist losers are kidnapping and disappearing innocent people off the streets. Government agencies protecting wealthy pedophiles. Government agencies weaponizing our courts against their political enemies. All of those and a country that loves its guns more than its children. Maybe this whole country should be on his Naughty List. With so many reasons to be exhausted, like the holidays and fascism, we all need a release. What better way to bring people together for fun than gaming? This episode is the finale episode of the RPGrinders version of gaming fun, Game Night! After 2 weeks of wrestling entertainment, the Grinders finally determine the winner of our final game of 2025. Will it be Frank's wicked El Chaupacabra? Or maybe Break's grunty Beast? What about Eric's badass Johnny 5 Bigelow? Or could it be one of the chatter's wrestlers who cleaned house and took home the championship belt?? No hints and Santa can't help you this time! With that, the Grinders give a Merry Middle Finger to 2025 and wish nothing but the best to all our friends, family, and listeners. May whichever holiday you celebrate be filled with love and joy. The only thing that kinda sucks about Game Night is that I write a bunch of stuff that never even gets used. It took me a couple hours to write the *redacted* ending but no one will hear its glory! lol Oh well, as long as I am still having fun, I see no real need to complain!
Exploding Kittens began as a jerry-rigged version of Russian Roulette — a deck of cards hastily modified with a Sharpie. But what happened next is one of the most improbable success stories in the creator economy: a $10,000 Kickstarter goal that ballooned into nearly $9 million, a community that rewrote the rules of crowdfunding, and a company that has now sold over 60 million card and board games.Co-founder Elan Lee shares the story behind Exploding Kittens — from dismantling his brother's toys as a kid, to helping design Halo, to walking away from Microsoft…twice.

Elsewhere, Gunnar reconnects with an old high school friend, Lucas, and what starts as nostalgia unexpectedly reignites desire.This episode weaves awkward rides, charged conversations, and unresolved attraction into a messy, human snapshot of connection—and discomfort—you won't want to.•STARRING•Shitty was written and produced by Joshua Gilyard•Cowrites and edits by Jason Codes•StarringJoshua GilyardAndrew GoodallRicardo DewayneJason Codes•FeaturingJonathan Taylor Fontaine Sinclair

in this episode of RPGrinders, the crew finally makes a return to Game Night, but not before dealing with some light news and audio issues that would make Max Headroom blush. There were some reviews, but honestly I took a hit to the head by a random object during a wrestling match, so I don't remember too well. But at least there is a whole slew of stinkos about the usual suspects, and a death of a loved actor. But after the Sweetos, Game Night comes back with some of that aforementioned wrestling mayhem I mentioned earlier. Who will come out on top as the best of the best? Be sure to tune in live if you want to find out in real time, Fridays at 7 PM EST on Twitch/Youtube!

The crew tackles tough questions: Should pros be allowed at local events? How can we keep the game welcoming to newcomers while maintaining competitive integrity? And is cornhole's magic rooted in the sport itself, or in the culture that built it? Then, Meesh reveals big ACL Academy changes coming in 2026, and things get festive with a hilarious round of Complicated Thanksgiving Dishes, where the hosts decode dishes from their twisted synonyms and antonyms.

Send us a textA single question—what's your go-to condiment?—turns into a full-on catch-up that's equal parts cozy, chaotic, and weirdly revealing. We compare ranch loyalty with mustard purists, confess Miracle Whip-on-hot-dog crimes, and admit to breakfast choices that should probably be illegal. Food opens the door to everything else: newborn sleep shifts, basketball season chaos, and the small household rules that spark big laughs, like when Christmas movies are “allowed” to start.From there, we dig into the media that's shaping our season. We debate Hallmark predictability, share comfort rewatches, and talk about how streaming turned choosing into a marathon of scrolling. Nostalgia makes a comeback—VHS tapes, Redbox walls, judging movies and games by cover art—and we admit it still works more often than not. The audiobook tangent hits a nerve: AI narration might be efficient, but it can't replace a human performance that breathes life into the story.If you're hunting for watchlist ideas, we've got plenty. We shout out Game Night for sharp comedy, then pivot into war films that stick with you—Unbroken, 12 Strong, Land of Bad, and the moments in Saving Private Ryan you can't unsee. We admire practical filmmaking too: Top Gun: Maverick's real cockpit footage, Tom Cruise's stunt obsession, and the way authentic risk charges the screen. It's a tour through comfort food, comfort films, and the rituals that make busy seasons feel grounded.Hit play for laughs, confessions, and a stack of movie recs.

Tonight we're covering:
Send us a textRHOP-Truth, Tequila, and a Touch of ShadePodcast Summary: RHOP S10 E5 – “Sunshine and Sexts”The episode picks up right in the drama from last time — Ashley questions Stacey about rumors involving Chris Samuels. Stacey insists they're just friends who bonded through mutual friends and shared divorce experiences, while Ashley pushes for clarity. Giselle jumps in asking if Stacey's ever met Monique, and Stacey admits not yet, but maybe someday.The ladies celebrate Wendy's birthday with cake and tequila-fueled truth-or-drink games. The questions get spicy — Wendy admits being attracted to women, Tia confesses a crush on Rachel Maddow, and things turn tense when Angel says she'd “kill Giselle” in the group, calling her a catfish. A fiery back-and-forth ensues until Angel declares, “I'm that motherf***er,” earning a confessional quip from Wendy about Angel rising like a phoenix now that Kiarna's gone.The next morning, Giselle and Angel finally talk it out by the pool. Angel breaks down, explaining she looked up to Giselle as a big sister and felt hurt by her appearance comments. Giselle surprisingly apologizes, sharing that she remembers those postpartum insecurities and meant no harm. Though Angel accepts the apology, she declines the hug, later calling the convo “shallow and unnecessary.”The ladies then tour the Alexander Hamilton House in Nevis, where Wendy turns the trip educational, while others keep the shade alive. Ashley and Giselle joke about being the “Pussy Pink Palace” and “Funhouse,” contrasting Wendy's “Curly Girl Collective” (CGC) alliance with Staci and Jassi.Giselle later opens up about wanting real love, especially after her father's passing, and teases a new man — but keeps the details private. Meanwhile, Tia shares her cross-cultural marriage story, offering rare heart amid the chaos.Back on the party bus, the energy is wild — stripper pole, drinks, and all — though Wendy feels sick and later stays behind. Stacey lightens the mood by testing her man Thiemo's humor, texting him “Sex” only to get a dry “Who?” reply.The ladies wrap up with dinner at the Sunshine Café, where tensions quietly simmer again between Angel, Giselle, and Kiarna. Wendy's absence looms, Angel feels misunderstood, and Ashley once again stirs the pot.Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

Episode kicks off with a movie review and spoilers for Honey Don't. Rheannon got fooled by some bad information off of TikTok that did not help for Fantasy Football. Tamara did her best to explain the rules to Bunko, but the biggest take away though is that Tamara won the most games when she played with her friends. Rheannon has been challenged to read a book since she picked a bad movie to watch. Tamara thinks they should watch a scary movie since it is October, but Rheannon thinks that will go down hill in not a fun way.
It's Football Friday and the Tobin & Leroy show get you ready for fun filled weekend of sports. They talk Miami Hurricanes football as the they face $2 ranked Canes host the Louisville Cardinals. The Miami Dolphins are getting ready to take on the Cleveland Browns in windy conditions. The Phins are heading into Cleveland with all the drama from Tua's comments after the Chargers loss. Now they have to deal with trade rumors swirling around the team. The Miami heat are back in action for their final preseason game at home vs the Memphis Grizzlies. With no wins in the preseason and the offense being limited is this an indicator of how the season will be? All of this and much more like "Mix Bag" and "You're Dead to Me".
