Wyman & Bob share their biggest takeaways from last night's Seahawks preseason game against the Titans, the Astros part ways with their GM in Take Two, how optimistic should the Mariners be after taking the series against the Cubs, and what's next for Seahawks quarterback Jalen Milroe after an underwhelming performance.

Phantom Blade Zero showcase, Amazon gaming speculation, Horizon spinoff reboot, GTA 6 leaks, pickups, and a Jurassic Park SNES review. Chapters:  00:00 Intro 03:13 Game Pickups and Miniatures 06:11 Dungeons and Dragons Campaign Planning 12:17 Chrono Trigger Gameplay Experience 18:16 Fast News: Gaming Industry Updates 34:23 Amazon's Gaming Aspirations 37:45 PlayStation's Horizon Multiplayer Reboot 41:58 Sony's Live Service Game Struggles 48:23 GTA VI Leaks and Speculations 56:19 Retro Game Review: Jurassic Park on SNES John and Ryan start the week with their recent gaming pickups, including John's discounted Critical Role miniatures for future sessions, Ryan's time with Granblue and Guilty Gear Strive, and John's ongoing playthrough of Chrono Trigger on PS1. The news kicks off with the Phantom Blade Zero showcase, where gamers are calling for a physical release — overshadowing the impressive gameplay reveal. The guys then react to speculation that Amazon may be stepping away from gaming, following recent studio closures and the hand‑off of online services to other developers. They analyze what this could mean for Amazon's broader entertainment strategy if the trend continues. Next, they dive into Sony's reported reboot of the Horizon multiplayer spinoff after negative feedback, noting how this continues a string of failed live‑service attempts. The conversation then shifts to Rockstar and Take‑Two as GTA 6 leaks reveal map and gameplay details ahead of the Netflix preview, sparking debate about marketing strategy and fan expectations. To wrap up the episode, the Inflation Deflation Game of the Week features a review of Jurassic Park on SNES, as John and Ryan revisit the 16‑bit adaptation of the blockbuster film and evaluate its current market value.

GTA 6 has been hacked again—and this time Take-Two is going after the source. Microsoft and Discord have been pulled into the investigation as Rockstar faces yet another major leak surrounding gaming's most anticipated release. Meanwhile, Xbox is changing how it does business. Microsoft has stopped providing digital sales data to Circana, PlayStation and Steam logos are disappearing from Xbox marketing, and the reported Xbox Disc-to-Digital program could fundamentally change how physical Xbox libraries survive into the next generation. We debate what these moves actually mean for Xbox, whether physical games are dying on the platform, and whether Microsoft's increasingly digital ecosystem is becoming more—or less—consumer friendly. Plus: Gears of War: E-Day vs. Modern Warfare 4, rising console prices, PlayStation's digital ownership problem, Horizon Hunters Gathering, Xbox dashboard improvements, and more.

This week, we're joined by romance author Lucy Wilson-Tagoe, who longtime readers may also know by her pen name Dylan Allen, to talk writing, reinvention, and her newest release, To Catch a Sinner.And because this is What the Smut, we obviously do not stay on one topic for very long. Andddddd we may have forgot to hit the record button...Lucy takes us behind the scenes of her writing process, from plotting complicated stories in spreadsheets to leaving just enough room for the feral chaos to take over. We also talk about the characters who completely hijacked her life, the tiny character details she obsesses over, and why apparently knowing exactly how someone laughs is essential information.Then we dive into To Catch a Sinner, the first book in Lucy's new romantic suspense duet. Mary also shares why she immediately thought this story needed to become a miniseries, while Cortney patiently waits for the audiobook (its out NOW) because we all know she is our resident audio girlie. If you love romance books, romantic suspense, indie romance authors, audiobook romance, friends-to-lovers, morally gray characters, bookish podcasts, author interviews, or behind-the-scenes conversations about writing, this episode is for you.Grab your favorite snacky snack, your beverage of choice, and come hang out while we talk books, writing, side quests, gummy bears, laundry services, and all the chaos in between.And as always, slide into our DMs and tell us what you're reading, watching, or what completely unhinged thought has been living rent-free in your head this week.Lucy's IGLucy's WebsiteLucy's Books..Apply to be a Guest on our showSign up for our Substack Newsletter..Support Our Show (May Include Affiliate Links)Amazon Product Links (Books, Shows, Products mentioned)Sponsorship or Ad Affiliate InquiriesWell Read Candle Company - WhatTheSmut10 saves you $$Audible Free TrialKindle Unlimited Free Trial..Where to Find UsWe are the most active on InstagramWhatTheSmutPodcastMarySend us a voice noteWell Read Candle Co10% Off WHATTHESMUT10 Support the show

Johnny chats to Simon about the movie, its unusual filmmaking process, and working alongside Nighy, Imelda Staunton, George McKay and Noah Jupe as part of its all-star ensemble cast. Plus we hear a little about his upcoming performances as Paul Simon in South-African-set drama The Road Home, as a beleaguered sheriff in western A Prayer For The Dying, as Dostoevsky in The Idiots, and as Lucuis Malfoy (i.e. Jason Isaacs) in Harry Potter. I do wish someone would give this lad a bit of work, he must be desperate for something to get his teeth into… Mark reviews & Sons, as well as two more of the week's most exciting titles. First up, Coyote vs Acme, a live action animation hybrid that sees Looney Tunes' murderous canine Wile E. Coyote return to the screen in a meta legal drama with the suppliers of his ever-malfunctioning gadgets. Plus, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma (one film not two), a meta-slasher starring Gillian Anderson in which a film director becomes obsessed with casting her ‘final girl' in a classic horror sequel.

Supersub Sanjeev is sitting in for Simon on this week's Take, and he and Mark will be bringing you three brand spanking new reviews of the coming cinematic attractions. The End of Oak Street has got dinosaurs, mysterious teleportation, and… kids with bows and arrows - which is the most unbelievable of those things, according to Sanjeev. But is this 80s-set adventure pleasantly Spielbergian, or just prehistoric? Then there's Tony, the Anthony Bourdain origin story starring Dominic Sessa as the young rockstar chef to be. It might have Mark salivating - or maybe it's just an odd mixture of ingredients… And finally we have Lady, starring this week's special guest, Sian Clifford. In this madcap comedy the BAFTA-winning Fleabag actress plays a self-obsessed aristocrat who looks in the mirror for so long that she starts to see herself disappearing. She talks to Sanjeev about the role and why she hates being on camera as an actor. All that plus the Laughter Lift - this week at least delivered by an actual comedian - the box office top 10, and of course your top correspondence. A Sony Music Entertainment production.

Three of the biggest names in games reported inside a single week and the headline numbers pointed three different directions. Nintendo's profit nearly doubled. Roblox missed on revenue while its player count rose. Take-Two was hours from reporting a loss.Underneath all of it sat the same question, and it's the one worth asking about your own game: is the pool of players getting bigger, or are you just getting better at extracting from the pool you already have?Greg Posner and Colan Neese are joined by Simeon McMillan, founder of the media and tech stocks newsletter Accrued Interest, who came up through TV, radio and cable ad sales before he started writing about the companies.

Bom dia Tech! Tudo bem? Meu nome é Arthur Givigir e hoje é terça-feira, dia 11 de agosto de 2026 e trago para você as principais notícias de tecnologia, vamos lá?No episódio de hoje, a Take-Two defendeu a decisão de lançar GTA VI sem disco físico e afirmou que esse tipo de mídia já não faz sentido para grandes jogos.

Is the future of gaming streamed, digital, and locked behind subscriptions? This week, we discuss the controversy surrounding GTA 6's timed Netflix-exclusive footage, Take-Two's prediction that high-quality game streaming is only three years away, and Nintendo's continued commitment to physical games as PlayStation moves away from discs. Plus, in the Video Game Fun Fact - Matt explores the PlayStation 2's blue discs and the surprising variety of formats the console could play, followed by what we've been playing this week.

Plus: SK Hynix plans to invest about $38 billion to expand chip production. And video game company Take Two reports loss despite higher revenue. Imani Moise hosts.

In today's Daily Fix:GTA 6 publisher Take-Two has defended the move to launch the game digital-only. CEO Strauss Zelnick, however, did not rule out the possibility of a physical release in the future, but for now it just make more sense to release the game digitally, especially considering consumer buying habits. In related news, Nintendo reports that nearly 40% of their software sales are physical, proving yet again that the company and their die-hard fans go against the grain compared to the rest of the gaming industry. And finally, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has set a new domestic box office record, crossing $500 million in U.S. ticket sales in one week. The previous record-holder is Avengers: Endgame, which still holds the record for fastest to $1 billion ticket sales globally.

Derek Moore is joined by Mike Snyder and Shane Skinner this week to talk about the market tape defined by two things happening at once: a violent volatility shock concentrated in semiconductors, and an earnings season that is quietly the strongest in years. The Leopold liquidation drove SOX single-stock volatility to 75% much higher than the S&P 500 Index in general. With 305 of 498 S&P 500 companies reported for Q2 2026, sales are beating by 3.1% and earnings by 31.1%, and forward EPS is modeled to climb from trailing 294 per share to 374 per share, pulling the index P/E from 25.4 trailing to roughly 19.9 forward PE. Looking ahead to SpaceX earnings and discussing Kevin Warsh telling reporters let the market decide!     Leopold liquidation pushed SOX single-stock volatility to 75%, only the third time ever per Warren Pies. The prior two 75% readings, March 2020 and April 2025, led to big gains per Warren Pies Semis inside the S&P 500 carry a median 30-day implied vol of 87.5% versus 36.1% for the index. Q2 2026 earnings season: 305 of 498 S&P 500 names have been reported. Aggregate earnings are beating by 31.1% and sales by 3.1%, the biggest surprise in recent quarters. Consumer Discretionary (+121%) and Communications (+99%) led the earnings surprises. Utilities were the only sector with a negative sales surprise, at -1.5%. S&P 500 forward EPS is estimated at 374 versus trailing 294 actual, up 27%. That earnings growth takes the index P/E from 25.4, trailing down to 19.9 on forward estimates. Apple traded down about $26 on the day to roughly $307.55. Apple's combination of falling price and slightly lowered guidance still compressing its P/E to 32.5. Jurian Timmer at Fidelity notes that the Mag 7 payout ratio has been falling and now sits at +17%. What is the payout ratio and how do buybacks plus dividends account for percent of EPS paid out Week 32 earnings include Palantir, Toyota, Caterpillar, AMD, Disney, Uber, Shopify and Airbnb. Also reporting: Lilly, Novo Nordisk, McDonald's, Pfizer, CVS, DoorDash, Lyft and Take-Two. Did Apple get cheaper? Is Apple sandbagging to help the new CEO?

Spider-Man is swinging back onto cinema screens this weekend in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Tom Holland's masked web slinger is anonymous once again, his identity having been wiped from the memories of his fellow New Yorkers - including those once closest to him. Mark reviews this latest Marvel blockbuster, alongside a homegrown British indie that's generating some serious buzz: Ish. Recalling Kes, The 400 Blows and the Apu trilogy, it's a vivid coming-of-age debut you won't want to miss. Also coming soon on digital is Our Hero Balthazar, a dark satire tackling gun violence and internet culture, starring Asa Butterfield - who is our special guest this week. He plays Solomon, a gun-obsessed would-be school shooter, online-trolling from the Texas trailer he shares with his granny. The film centres around Solomon's uneasy friendship with Balthazar, a New York rich kid who craves the social cachet of preventing a shooting by befriending its potential perpetrator. Asa joins Mark and Simon to unpack this transformational performance. Plus the Laughter Lift, more on our inevitable technological overlords in new mini-feature ‘AI Don't Like That', and of course lots of top correspondence from you. Cheers!

We have a very ‘precious' guest for you this week… yes, it's Andy Serkis, AKA Gollum himself. The actor, director, and motion capturer extraordinaire chats to Simon about his new film Animal Farm - an animated adaptation of Orwell's classic story for a young audience. With Seth Rogan putting a comic spin on Orwell's porky totalitarian Napoleon, and a key new character and third act added, Serkis' child-friendly version has attracted some ire already - but is it fair? Listen in to find out where Mark stands. Plus, we've got two more reviews of what's out this week for anyone not going to see The Odyssey. First up, Pinocchio Unstrung - the latest in Twisted Childhood's series of slasher-fied, copyright free children's classics. Then there's Ask E. Jean, a powerful doc about American columnist E. Jean Carroll, who took on Trump in the courts and won. Plus, the Laughter Lift as usual, and we're also debuting a technophobic new feature ‘AI don't like that' - a home for the ever-increasing correspondence about the terrifying ascendency of our future AI overlords.
