We also get a deep dive from Jenna on the origin of podcasts. Afterwards the ladies play their never-before-heard “Office Ladies” pilot podcast!

This week we're breaking down the webisodes “Subtle Sexuality” and the music video, “Girl Next Door”. Kelly and Erin make a music video while most of the Dunder Mifflin employees are away at “some boring software-training program”. The song is very obviously about Ryan, a.k.a. Kelly's “Male Prima Donna”. Jenna and Angela break down the song, choreography and very fun costumes, then they break down the spin off song “Girl Next Door”. Jenna also shares an unexpected morning she had coming into the studio, Angela talks about the website made just for Kelly and Erin's “world tour”, and the ladies talk about music videos they acted in.

Back in 2006, the internet was still trying to figure itself out, and so we got little supplemental episodes designed to hold us over between seasons, like these. Here we fill in some story to supplement the Season 3 premiere, and we learn what the Resistance was doing before that episode's events, and why certain people made the choices they did.

Number 893We had some hands-on time with Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Sonic Superstars and more, and we're ready to share our thoughts with you! We also got two very special care packages from developers, and big plans for social media. So much ground covered in this episode, and so much more to come!

Number 892Did you hear Microsoft wanted to buy Nintendo and they don't like calling the Switch a console? We did, and we have plenty to say about it! We also chat about Fall snacks, Deux's first time with a beloved Nintendo franchise, the insanity of F-ZERO 99 and so much more!

Number 891What a wild show this is. An hour of all sorts of nonsense, and hour of Nintendo Direct talk, and an hour of gameplay talk, your questions, and music trivia. This was a really fun one for us, so hopefully it's fun to listen to!

Number 890We've got plenty of juicy Nintendo rumors to talk about this week. Is a Nintendo Direct around the corner? Did we just learn new details about the Switch's successor? Is Charles Martinet actually a doppelganger? All this and more in today's episode!

Number 889No, your ears do no deceive you. We managed to get Nicky Hill for two episodes in a week! We get his input on Super Mario Bros. Wonder, talk about the One Piece live-action reaction, chat about major Switch successes, and I lose my mind over the great Switch games I've been playing!

Number 888You spoke his name and he returned. Nicky Hill is here after a long absence, and he joins us for our longest show ever! I'm not even going to spoil anything. All I'll say is that this is without a doubt an all-time great episode.

Number 887It's a three-person team for this week's episode, which always leads to some interesting conversations. Sure, there's plenty of talk about Nintendo, including hardware and software sales, the Mario movie's latest records and more, but there's plenty of other topics as well. Oh, and IGN heard our Pikmin 4 segment and they've got something to say!

Number 886Scandals rock the 2023 Pokemon World Championships! Red Dead Redemption causes an uproar! A GN reader really lets me have it! All that and more, plus an amazing music trivia section!

Number 885We're blessed to have Nintenho join us for a very lively show this time around. Plenty of big Nintendo sales to talk about, a deep discussion about an IGN controversy surrounding Pikmin 4, plenty of laughs about stupid stuff, and so much more!

Number 884We've got a lot to say about a lot of topics this week! We share our detailed thoughts on Pikmin 4, talk about all the Switch successor rumors, shout out to friend-of-the-show Alf, and so much more! Of course, there's your questions, music trivia, random topics as well!

Number 883We're back in action with the crew on our normal day and time, and it seems like we were ready to get right back into the swing of things! Something about this episode felt really fun, and hopefully it feels the same for you.

Number 882We're back from our vacation and we've got beach tales to tell! Oh, and plenty of Nintendo news as well. We're easy back into the swing of things with a more laid-back show, but hopefully you still enjoy.

Number 881We had another 3-man podcast this week, and it turned out to be a pretty great one! Lots of laughs, plenty of speculation on what's next after Switch, and a rousing round of podcast music trivia!

Number 880It's just a three-person team this time, but we still have plenty of ground to cover. Lots of big Nintendo news, impressions of Pikmin 4, grumbles about Wheel of Fortune, and a bunch of other random stuff!

Number 879What a Nintendo Direct we had this week! Let's recap the games revealed and share our excitement! That's not all though, as we got some other entertainment news for me to rant about, plus there's some absolutely lovely messages from you guys!

Number 878What a lovely show we had today. Lots of fun and silly topics, plenty of stories to dive deep into, a lot of great participation from the live show crew...I couldn't have asked for a better episode!

Number 877E3 might be cancelled, but it sure feels like the big show is still going on. Plenty of conferences to cover and games to discuss, including a decent amount of brand-new titles heading to Switch! Plus, we try out our new trivia game, enjoy some random discussions, and get surprised by a late addition of a podcast regular to this episode!

Number 876Man, we have some great conversations this week that are sure to rile people up. Lots of hot topics and even hotter discussions! I'm sure there will be some feedback on this episode, and hopefully a lot of laughs as well!
