It is once again time to go on Geoff Keighley's wild ride. We had to fall back on Discord audio for the first 20 or so minutes, so there is some light cutting out.

Today we are feeling nostalgic...for a time long gone, when multiplayer games were only expected to last you for a few hours a week for maybe a month or two. When console wars were the most toxic spats in the gaming space. When Kevin knew a British guy with a dead son on Xbox Party Chat (unsure if this is real).

We were meant to play timely games, but only Nicco really understood the assignment. However, Brody REALLY enjoyed Pentiment and you may have forgotten it exists. Chris' only timely contributions this week were Sonic Rumble, Sonic Racing Crossworlds, and the first two episodes of Pluribus. Only one of those three brought him joy. Lastly, Nicco is eating crow on turn-based RPGs.

The Blerds are back bringing you all of their thoughts on everything happening in nerd culture. This week, Shannon and James dive deep into their nerdy things including anime recommendations like 'Paprika' and 'Gachiakuta', video game experiences with titles like 'Ghost of Yotei' and 'Astrobot', and discussions on popular shows like 'Peacemaker' and 'Gen V'. They also explore the complexities of anime narratives, particularly in 'Chainsaw Man', and share their ongoing journey with 'One Piece'. They also talk about anime filler episodes and reading recommendations to the ongoing legal battle between Sony and Tencent over game similarities. They discuss the potential impact of copycat games on established franchises, the pricing of upcoming games like GTA 6, and the value of video games in general. The conversation also touches on the future of beloved franchises like Sly Cooper and the importance of game demos. Finally, they wrap up with recommendations for Halloween-themed anime.

Summary of "Fork in Your Ear" Podcast Episode (Tim & Nate) This episode dives into fall vibes amid aging pains (creaky bones, coffee slurps) and tech woes, with Tim and Nate riffing on updates, laughs, and hype. Runtime ~3 hours of unfiltered chaos—editing hell for Nate. Life Updates Aches & Updates: Tim's iOS 26.0.1 update bricked his iPhone (boot loop, wiped/restored), Mac (crashy shutdowns), and dad's iPad (security patch fail)—"Windows-level disaster." Nate dodges it. Both gripe about body breakdowns (Tim: rib pain post-PT; Nate: car door twinge). Matchmaking Magic: Tim's playing Cupid for friend Robert (Xbox gamer) and Jessica's pal Winter (PC gamer)—siloed texts, Discord voice chats, Destiny 2 setup woes (Bungie name linking). High-fives with Jessica; they're vibing over Arizona iced tea. Tentative game night/Diablo 4 co-op; hopes for "rabbits" (post-rant: wholesome joy). Misc: Tim's niece's 2nd bday (Bluey gift hunt); haunted house tours delayed (friend in Turkey). Nate: Bengals tanking NFL season ("lost cause"); Dodgers playoffs competitive. Tron: Ares tickets (Oct 8; 3D laser IMAX; avoiding spoilers/merch glow-up). Entertainment Food Fight: KFC's "11 herbs/spices" spilled by a descendant (sage, cloves, etc., plus MSG in batter)—Tim sneezes mid-read. TV/Binge: Tim digs Chad Powers (Hulu comedy: Glen Powell as disgraced QB in Mrs. Doubtfire disguise; showboating fumble premise—real NFL bloopers nod). Nate pans Naked Gun reboot (PG-13 gags miss R-rated edge; 2-hour regret). Simpsons Movie 2 (2027; Tim hopes for finale/OG writers like Conan). Bond Brouhaha: Amazon edits gun-free James Bond box art (e.g., Brosnan Photoshop)—hypocritical with gun-logo/merch (e.g., GoldenEye collector's gun). Conspiracy: Search filter prep? Tim rants: Spy franchise sans guns = absurd. Tech Foldable Fever: Rumors of iPhone Fold (two Airs hinged; magnets likely). Nate gushes Z Fold 7 (thinner 215g/8" screen; 2,600 nits; Snapdragon 8 Elite ~40% faster; crease minimal—but wobbly camera bump gripes). Specs: 12GB RAM, 200MP cam; Minecraft hitches (update?). AI & Gadgets: Runway Gen-3 video AI (8-sec clips; ethics rage—Tim: tool for originals, not deepfakes like "Tilly Norwood" Comic-Con stunt). Coast USB-C rechargeables ($25/8-pack; testing in toothbrush/trimmer/Xbox controller—clever case). OS Hell: iOS 26 unification mixed (Watch/iPad laggy; TV fonts tiny). Free Xbox Cloud w/ads rumored (pre/mid/post-rolls? Tim fears retro-ad hell in raids). Video Games Game Pass Glow-Up (or Down): Tiers revamp Nov 4 (Essential $10: 50+ games/cross-play; Premium $15: 200+; Ultimate $30: 400+/day-one Ubisoft/EA/Fortnite—up $10). CoD excluded 2025 ($300M loss last year); no PC-only. Tim: Value for heavy users; Nate: Bait-switch fatigue. Free ad-tier Cloud incoming? Tim's Plays: Lego Voyagers (co-op puzzle; visual storytelling, 3-5hr cute vibes). Hollow Knight (30hr in: slow/janky start—5-8hr slog; soul mechanic shines; 7-8/10; Newgrounds art/jank from 2 devs). Jump Ship ($20 early access: Sea of Thieves/Helldivers space co-op; Zero-G repairs, grid Tetris, Star Fox branching—co-op chaos gold; single-player robot helper). Nate's Dips: Shapes (idle factory builder: shape-mining puzzles, web/Steam sync). Hollow Knight/Silksong (not his jam—zero onboarding). News/Hype: PS State of Play (Ascendant: Returnal roguelike; Wolverine: R-rated leaks confirmed, March '26—Hugh Jackman-esque actor; nuanced vs. Steve Blum growl debate). EA $55B buyout (Saudi royals/Kushner; fears for BioWare/Mass Effect, LGBTQ Apex retcons). Star Seeker Direct Oct 7. Cobra: The Awakening (Switch GI Joe cartoon vibe). GameStop PSA slab trade-in ($5K for Switch/Pokémon—WA weirdos). Wraps on Tron: Ares unspoiled joy (NIN Anaheim March; Disney ad dodges), with Tim's matchmaking glow and Nate's editing dread. Forked vibes: Pain, hype, and "fuck you" laughs. Next: Tron reactions?

This was recorded in a world before Silksong, so please excuse Chris' dunks on the Silksong community. He has since played 8 hours of it and thinks it's good. However, for years before it's release every gaming show would have the same meme. Where's Silksong? We've seen this with other games over time as well. Where's Half-Life 3? Where's Shenmue 3? What's Randy Pitchford doing on that bathroom floor? Sometimes we have to wonder, are we excited about the actual games, or are we just excited about being excited about games? Also in this episode, Moriarty tells us what PAX was like this year.

There are easy games, and games that are notoriously difficult to "get good" at. However, Moriarty raised this question to us...what is the hardest game (or genre) to become simply "okay" at? Also, how much can a trailer spoil before it's simply objectively spoiling too much?SHOW NOTESThe cicadas outside Chris' home make a cameo at around 15 minutes in.

Summary of "Fork in Your Ear" Podcast Episode (Tim & Nate) This casual, banter-heavy episode kicks off with the hosts (Tim and Nate) fumbling through a sound check amid slurping coffee, barking dogs, and tech glitches—classic podcaster chaos. They joke about cluttered lives, puppy invasions, and Nate's XLR setup before rolling into the main show with self-deprecating humor about aging, coffee mishaps, and existential dread ("Why are we alive?"). Life Updates Tim's Whirlwind: Tim's dealing with home repairs (new dishwasher installed by a former Michelin-star chef from NYC who's now a handyman post-COVID; garage door fixed with smart integrations but noisy app beeps; doorknob drama leading to wild life stories). His leg's seizing from scar tissue (PT starts soon), mom's estate sale cleared out the house but didn't cover septic costs—still a win for decluttering. Financially, things improved: instant check processing, Apple Card approval (finally, after years of denials), and a surprise Xbox delivery after billing nightmares. He rants about Microsoft's chatbot hell for support. Nate's Rollercoaster: Work's feast-or-famine; a past-due job means Sunday overtime (paid double for minimal hours—great for him, bad for the business). Employee health crises abound: a coworker out post-heart attack/stroke, another starting chemo for throat cancer, and a recent funeral. Family hits hard too—stepmom's husband passed, niece prepping for birth amid her first wave of funerals ("Buckle up, buttercup"). Positives: Inheritance windfall pays off a car (no more payments, despite tire-popping wife jokes), and splurging on a kid-proof PC setup (i5, RTX 3050, durable mechanical keyboard/mouse) to spare their main rigs. Shared Vibes: Aging woes (Nate's "pentagenarian" shoulder pain; Tim's body betrayals), random revelations (Tim's massage therapist's quick divorce), and bio breaks mid-episode. Video Games Tim's Light Play: Minimal gaming due to life chaos—snippets of Helltank 2 on new Xbox Series X Galaxy Edition (smoother than Series S; no cross-play griefing despite PS fears; chat lags initially). Excited for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (Dec. 4 release; open-world vibes with space motorbike teased in janky trailer—fans divided). Rants: Nintendo's absurd NPC-summoning patent (pre-dates Pokémon); Acclaim's surprise revival with indies like Dead Space Cells knockoff; UE5 scalability for Switch 2 (Star Wars Outlaws shines despite hardware hate); Xbox price hikes ($799 for Galaxy—Tim snagged pre-raise); No Man's Sky Switch 2 Corvette update (multiplayer still OG Switch-less); all RE games native on Switch 2; Perfect Dark cancellation drama (near Take-Two publishing deal fell through). Nate's Dives: Hollow Knight: Silksong (beautiful Metroidvania, but zero onboarding—jumped in blind); Sword of the Sea (watery sandy area progression); Destiny 2 (season-behind fixes make it smooth; hyped for Renegades). Correction: His GameSir controller model's a lighter version (no hall-effect triggers/rumble). Nintendo Direct Highlights: Super Mario Galaxy 1&2 combo (up-res'd for Switch 2; $45 Amiibos rage); Super Mario Bros. Movie sequel subtitled Galaxy (Rosalina focus? Scarlett Johansson headcanon); FF7 Remake & Sonic Trilogy ports; Fire Emblem tease. Sony drama: Ghost of Yōtei designer fired over Charlie Kirk comments (lame PR response). Tech Headsets & Peripherals: Tim's new HyperX Cloud Alpha (fixed PS echo issues; spatial audio blew friend's mind—stereo 101 roast). Nate's Arctis Nova (won in raffle; mix amp for chat/game). Apple Event Rundown: iPhone lineup confirmed (Air: ultra-thin titanium, single cam, cut-down Pro chip; 17 Pros: aluminum return, "Plateau" camera bar for antennas, vapor chamber cooling, 30% sustained perf boost). Modems: C1/C1X in-house (Air/SE); Wi-Fi/Bluetooth N1 chip (efficiency gains). Watches: Hypertension detection, sat-phone Ultra, better battery. OS unifications: Watch/iPad meh (laggy fonts); Apple TV smooth but tiny text; iOS front cam upgrade (square sensor for tracking/selfies). Meta Fail: Ray-Ban Meta AI demo glitches mid-cooking demo ("Meta, what do I do?" meme gold). PC Woes: Tim's shipped rig (Descent setup) dead on arrival—video ports fried; Nate suspects reseat. Entertainment RIP Robert Redford (87; natural causes at home—bummer for Endgame fans). Books/Media: Tim binged Red Rising trilogy (piercing sci-fi; full-cast audiobook for book 4); fan-made Tron: Ares supercut trailer slaps. NIN's Tron: Ares score: Atmospheric/Fragile-era vibes (repetitive riffs, subdued electronics; Infiltrator as core theme; Building Better Worlds evokes Wendy Carlos). Harry Potter full-cast audiobooks incoming (star-studded: McAvoy, Pegg, etc.—overdue money grab?). TV Gripes: Mr. & Mrs. Smith S2 delayed indefinitely (cliffhanger rage); Nate finished Strange New Worlds (Tim slacking on Trek). Episode wraps on unifications' mixed bag, with laughs over beeps, updates, and "pentagenarian" jabs. Runtime ~2.5 hours of raw, unfiltered bro-chat—perfect for fans of tech rants and life entropy.

TFIYE Ep#200: Riding The 2 Cent Thunderwave! Join hosts Tim and Nate for the milestone 200th episode of The Fork in Your Ear Podcast!, where they dive into a chaotic mix of tech woes, family outings, and the latest in entertainment. Recorded amidst thunder and lightning, this episode is packed with candid banter, nerdy tangents, and plenty of laughs. **Tech Troubles & Gadgets** Tim and Nate kick things off with a deep dive into Tim's ongoing computer saga, from a rattling PC case to missing power cables. They discuss the challenges of tech repairs, the quirks of hard drive legacies, and Tim's Xbox Series X trade-in for a shiny new 2TB Galaxy model. Nate shares his love for the GameSir X5S mobile controller, praising its affordability, haptics, and compatibility with phones, Switch, and PC. The duo also previews the upcoming iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air, highlighting Apple's new C1 modem and a controversial camera bump on the Pro models. **Water Park Shenanigans** Tim recounts his chaotic family trip to Great Wolf Lodge, filled with thrilling water slides, a fearless toddler niece, and a not-so-graceful shower mishap that left him tangled in a curtain. From the high-speed Tornado slide to gluten-free dining surprises, Tim shares the highs and lows of the water park experience, while Nate reflects on his own family's less enthusiastic visit. **Entertainment Extravaganza** The episode spirals into entertainment with discussions on *Twisted Metal*, *Strange New Worlds*, and *Alien Earth*, where Tim urges viewers to enjoy the latter as a standalone Alien universe tale. They geek out over the upcoming *James Bond: First Light* video game, blending Hitman vibes with suave Bond moments, and express excitement for *Tron: Ares* and its Nine Inch Nails soundtrack. The hosts also touch on Spielberg's declined *Call of Duty* movie pitch and the greenlit *Life is Strange* TV series at Amazon. **Life and Random Tangents** From Nate's colorful past editing audiobooks to Tim's childhood trauma with *Twister*'s sound system demos, the hosts weave in personal anecdotes, family life, and a humorous nod to their podcast finally turning a two-cent profit. Expect plenty of zany banter, from thunderstorm interruptions to debates over Batman films and nostalgic jingles. Tune in for a wild ride through tech, travel, and pop culture, with Tim and Nate's signature wit and charm. *Fork in Your Ear* celebrates 200 episodes with a storm of stories and a sprinkle of chaos! --- Join The Fork Family On Discord: https://discord.gg/CXrFKxR8uA Find all our stuff at Remember to give us a review on iTunes or wherever you downloaded this podcast from.

Today, three grown men try to explain "locking in". One, with words, one, with brevity, and one...by referring to the One Piece powerscaling subreddit. Hawk Eyed guy is still the best swordsman in the series, though. Later, Chris expresses his disappointment with the continued SEGA & Roblox partnership and how his favorite thing is kind of uncool now. Also, Brody breaks our brains. Again.
