New meta means it's time for a new hero. Colin asks the Battle Bros to pitch him one of their favorite heroes and he makes vague non-committal promise-like statements about playing them. Will Colin play Dori? No! But maybe a warrior ;)What heroes are y'all thinking about for this new upcoming meta?Thanks as always for your support. https://www.patreon.com/attackactionpodcastShout out to everyone who has shown support for a friend and much loved member of the FAB community who tragically lost his home in the Eaton fire here in California.

We're on the verge of the second season of HBO's The Last of Us, and yet new questions percolate about whether we'll ever see another game in Naughty Dog's vaunted series. In a recent interview, Neil Druckmann told fans "don't bet on there being more," which is both alluringly ominous and obviously vague. That's good news for us, though, since it gives us plenty to discuss. Do we need more? Do we want more? Should we get more? Plus: Rumors are ramping up about one-time Xbox titan Gears of War migrating to PlayStation 5 later this year, while details related to Firesprite's cancelled Twisted Metal project have leaked. Also: PlayStation 2 turns 25 years old in Japan, Until Dawn Remake studio Ballistic Moon goes belly-up, a key Bungie designer joins Guerrilla, Monster Hunter Wilds smashes Capcom sales records, and more. Finally: Listener inquiries! Is it possible that Grand Theft Auto VI fails to meet either critical or commercial expectations, or perhaps both? What are our reflections on PS5 Pro now that we've had our own for some months? Should Canadians stop buying games from American publishers and developers in retaliation of US tariffs? Will Colin ever forgive his brother for continuously referring to himself as "The Dagster"?

When truly great games are delivered, players tend to respond. The industry's newest sales success is the long-awaited Kingdom Come: Deliverance sequel, which immediately sold a million copies upon release. But it's hardly alone. And the rest of this long year is already shaping up to be something special, with Metal Gear Solid Delta's release date leaking, Death Stranding 2's newest trailer drawing nearer, and EA's Battlefield finally toying with a real comeback. Other news this week includes the potential of a discless PlayStation 6, the arrival of more Xbox games on PS5 in the form of Age of Empires and Age of Mythology, Capcom's announcement of a port of PS2's Onimusha 2 for PlayStation 4, and more. Let's then round things out with listener inquiries, as is our tradition. What are our thoughts on the return of games media brand Rooster Teeth? Is Sony putting its own games on sale too quickly and too steeply, to its own detriment? Did EA executives really claim Dragon Age: The Veilguard failed because it wasn't live service? Will Colin ever recover from tendinitis, or are his weightlifting days over? Please keep in mind that our timestamps are approximate, and will often be slightly off due to dynamic ad placement.

What does it mean to be human? What is the value of struggle? Is it all worth it? In this episode of Film Flam, Colin and Sean answer these and many, many other questions. The Film Flam Angels (Flamgels?)  take a brief reprieve from their divine perch to stoop to the dirty, corporeal world of the unbathed masses to share all that they learned tromping through the world of Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire (originally Nicholas Cage's idea, but Wim beat him to production).Outstanding questions:* Will Colin stop bullying Sean after watching this movie?* If an angel touches a man and he feels it, and the man still commits suicide, is the angel liable?* Is this movie as good as "City of Angels?"Email profound insights to our research team at realfilmflampod@gmail.com

Just last year, Sony had grand designs of a new PlayStation leadership structure executing on an exciting multi-pronged strategy, but only three fiscal quarters later, the plan has come undone. Hideaki Nishino and Hermen Hulst were bestowed co-CEO roles -- the former looking after hardware and services, the latter after software -- but now, Nishino will hold the CEO role alone, with Hulst demoted and now reporting directly to him. While Sony Corporation itself made some other changes as well, including installing Hiroki Totoki as the larger entity's CEO, changes to PlayStation's executive structure so soon after alterations were first made says something rather clear: Bad choices were made, and rectifying them as quickly as possible is the best idea. We discuss. Other news this week includes Xbox quickly becoming PlayStation's biggest publisher, with yet another Xbox game -- Forza Horizon 5 -- en route to PS5, rumblings of new films for Resident Evil and Beyond: Two Souls, PlayStation 5 continuing to outsell the PS4 in the US when adjusted for time, layoffs at BioWare following Dragon Age's tumultuous end, MLB: The Show 25 skipping PS4 for the first time since the console launched, and more. Listener inquiries wrap things up. Is NCSoft's Horizon MMO cancelled? How does a game's budget actually get determined? Should future Dragon Quest games abandon Akira Toriyama's art style? Will Colin's Herman Miller chair ever arrive? Please keep in mind that our timestamps are approximate, and will often be slightly off due to dynamic ad placement.

Dustin is still roaming aimlessly around Japan (he'll be back next week), and the news has been slow in our beloved industry, leaving me (Colin) and Chris up to our own devices. And yet, there are still a few interesting tidbits to discuss. For starters, PS5's Astro Bot is getting weekly -- and totally free -- content over the next month-plus, while the Until Dawn film has been given an April '25 release date for its arrival in theaters as rumors surrounding a sequel to the 2015 game continue to percolate. Plus: Helldivers 2 received another major update, Sony revealed an in-person PlayStation concert series, Dino Crisis is locked to PS+ Premium for some reason, and Bandai Namco is reportedly exploring headcount reductions leveraging a shady Japanese corporate tradition: Oidashibeya, an evolution of another tactic called madogiwazoku. Listener inquiries tie things up on the back end, per usual. If Donald Trump wins the presidency, will gaming consoles in America be strapped with a tariff? Are we amped about the revival of the long-dormant and once-popular Backyard Sports series? Could Metaphor: ReFantazio appeal to JRPG fans that don't like Persona? Will Colin ever wake up after being put to sleep by a Dragon Age: The Veilguard-related question? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In the year 2024 of our lord and savior Cthulhu, a schism in the church appeared. What was first a small group of believers with outlandish beliefs in crustaceans, quickly became one of the largest sects within our Discord. Now, in Episode 119, it is time to address this heresy and bring our brothers and sisters back in to the fold. Discord jokes aside, hello everyone! Welcome back to another episode of Trophy Talk! Astro Bot is here, and it has stole the hearts of nearly all PlayStation fans and trophy hunters alike, dominating the most popular games category on PSNP since its launch. Naturally, as our most anticipated game, the boys come together to all discuss this trophy list as a group. It's no surprise that, in addition to being a fantastic and joyous game play experience, the trophy list for Astro Bot is near perfect. Featuring a good distribution, a good assortment of misc. trophies, plenty of collectibles, and most importantly no missables or NG+ trophies, the list is damn near perfect. We hope you're as excited as we are to jump in to Astro Bot, and explore the nostalgic world of Sony's past, present, and future IP. In addition to that discussion we of course have Plat shout outs and Rage God shout outs pulled directly from our Discord, multiple Patreon submitted questions, and a few topics to start off the show. What should Sony do about the Concord situation? Should the game ever come back and in what form? Will the PS5 Pro even have a SKU with a built in disc drive? Will Colin ever play Dead by Daylight? The answers are just behind the play button. Thank you for listening, and happy gaming!

A throw back to season one in the short interim between seasons, enjoy! Colin Lane and Kyran Wheatley take centre court for Picture Discuss.  In each episode of Picture Discuss, two comedians try to work out the context behind weird pictures on the internet that host Merrick Watts has found.  Will Colin and Kyran figure out what's going on and stick the landing, or will they crash and burn?  To see the pictures, click here or check out the Picture Discuss Instagram   (Photo by Getty Images) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we review either Ingmar or Ingrid Bergman's Through a Glass Darkly, a movie about three men and one woman. For the intro, Sean asks Colin to ask Sean a question, which leads to about as insightful an intro segment as it sounds like it would. Thankfully, they quickly get into the movie, with Colin finding no objection to Martin the Pervert, Sean saying God isn't interesting, and the audience probably going insane. As always, this episode will leave listeners with 3 deep and abiding questions: Can the Swedes build a normal helicopter? Will Colin ever get the Through a Glass Darkly/Magnificent Ambersons crossover ep he so yearns for? Does Sean just hate families? If you know the answer to any of these questions, then start your own podcast. Actual Discussion of Through a Glass Darkly starts at 9:06 And thanks again to renowned Flamily member Johnny V for the excellent intro music! Everyone else, please enjoy the fruits of his labor.

Colin & Paul attempt to out Christmas each other with a seasonal themed quiz on movies, TV and music. As Jay tries to retain control as the host who will reign supreme? Will Colin even remember his name, will Paul have spent weeks feverishly researching the answers, and will it all end in one big bun fight?  Merry Christmas and a Happy New to our listener(s), our Patreon supporters and all the people who have stepped in to co-host this year when one of us couldn't be bothered (cough - Colin). 

Colin sometimes struggles with a glass-half-empty disposition. He blames it on being born British. He felt it keenly when gathering the following 14 statistics for this episode. There are a mix of game-changing opportunities, including missed ones, and some acute risks facing organizations next year.  Ryan is American, a population Colin characterizes with as a glass-half-full disposition. He hopes by sharing these numbers gathered from reputable sources, that his American cohost might view these numbers with a bit more positivity.  Will Colin be disappointed? Maybe, maybe not.  For example, one statistic says by applying certain principles, organizations can expect 85 percent increase in sales growth and more than 25 percent in gross margins. It sounds great because it is.  However, another statistic shows that only 30 percent of organizations have improved their experiences enough to satisfy customers over the last ten-plus years, and it's getting worse not better. It does not sound great because it isn't.  This episode explores 14 statistics from reputable sources that present some compelling numbers regarding the whole Customer Experience movement—and what can happen if you ignore it or focus your efforts on less impactful components. From opportunities to risk, don't miss out on this episode before you start planning your next year.  Here are some other key moments in the discussion: 05:31  We get into the first statistic from Gallup and how it can really sell the experience program to the revenue-oriented and a second from them about the emotional nature of deciding. 11:53  Colin shares his statistic from the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) regarding how 70 percent of organizations remained flat or decreased customer satisfaction and that the index is at its lowest point since 2006. 19:14  We discuss the merits of growing existing customers versus recruiting new ones, but that 44% percent of companies still focus on customer acquisition, even though the probability of selling to an existing is 60 percent.   23:06  Colin shares a statistic from Emplify that explains why customers will pay a higher price to buy from you.  27:52  We discuss the last stat from Zendesk which explains how quickly you can lose a customer and what these stats revealed about Customer Experiences. _________________________________________________________________ Did you know we have a YouTube Channel too? Check it out here.

For the first time since 2016, Sony has increased the price of its PlayStation Plus subscription, and the torches and pitchforks are out en masse. See, there's no doubt the increases are large -- $20 a year more at minimum is nothing to sneeze at -- but it's also important to assess what the service was when it launched in 2010 at $50, and what it's become today at $80 and above. Now's a better time than ever to truly assess what you even get out of PS+ to begin with; the answers people arrive at will be vastly different, as you'll witness during our extensive conversation. We also touch on other big news this week -- PlayStation Portal gets dated, Volition closes its doors after three decades, Sea of Stars does big numbers, and more -- and we wrap things up with a litany of listener inquiries, as is our tradition. What are our current thoughts on PlayStation Stars? Is the console gaming gender gap officially closed? Could big sites and creators do more to avoid spoiling products? Will Colin ever recover from Dustin and Chris not understanding his Can't Hardly Wait reference? This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

In early September, prominent CRPG Baldur's Gate III migrates from PC to PlayStation 5, and it sounds like it may just be what the doctor ordered. A deep role-playing experience chock-full of choice and consequence -- and layered with a thick patina of polish -- could potentially sell millions of copies on PS5. Will the critically acclaimed, purportedly amazing experience successfully catapult from computer to console? And should we expect it to stem the tide until Spider-Man 2 arrives? Other items this week include fresh release dates for Assassin's Creed: Mirage and Alan Wake II, the reveal of new TMNT and South Park games, a horrible-looking Walking Dead title arriving this fall, and an inopportune quote from Square Enix executive producer Yoshi-P that unintentionally fed eager fanboys. Listener inquiries round things out, per usual. Why do people encumber themselves with a backlog? How do we navigate our personal relationships when it comes to making the time necessary to play games? Is Sony's silence starting to become conspicuous, and even worrying?

Is PlayStation doing well? It's easy to answer "yes" after reading Sony's recent quarterly financial reports, which shows exploding levels of revenue, with a lower-than-expected profit margin scaring markets (even as the Japanese behemoth remains in the black). Then again, that something as relatively cheap as Bungie's acquisition could in part affect the firm's wider earnings is a sign that Sony simply isn't on the level of its competition when it comes to purchasing power, and thus it needs to be more deliberate and cautious. Should we be worried about PlayStation's trajectory, specifically with a seeming dearth of known first and second party games beyond Spider-Man 2 and Helldivers 2? Heck, did Final Fantasy XVI undersell after all, potentially fracturing their relationship with Square Enix? As usual, we've much to discuss. Other news this week includes an analysis of Rockstar's questionable Red Dead Redemption PS4 port, controversy surrounding PSVR2, Twisted Metal's excellent performance on Peacock, and much more. Listener inquiries wrap things up, as usual. Should we tip our cap to Fortnite for a job well done? Are Nintendo's recent patents a step too far for game development? Why do some people think Starfield will fail when it's obvious it won't? Will Colin survive hearing a list of his perceived worst takes? Learn more about your ad choices.

The brand-new Harry Potter adventure Hogwarts Legacy will very easily go down as one of 2023's best-sellers, a testament to its high quality and faithful treatment of the so-called Wizarding World. But its success is also a triumph for reason and truth, and a major defeat for the outrage machine that tried to destroy it via a distorted game of telephone. Nestled within the maelstrom is nonetheless a heck of a game, and we're eager to talk about Avalanche Software's release in-depth. Plus: BioWare's continuing troubles, PixelJunk's triumphant return to PlayStation, and much more news. Then: Listener inquiries! Should we be more mindful of old game spoilers to help the younger generations 'go in fresh'? Was the Nier: Automata Platinum Trophy a step too far?

Sony's annual financial report brings with it good news for the brand. PlayStation, as usual, is the most important vertical in its corporate family in Japan, pulling in the most revenue and raking in the highest profit (even more than Sony Pictures, currently in a renaissance of its own). Yet, with PlayStation 5 doing well, Sony has a serious issue: It still can't manufacture enough PS5s to satiate demand. Not even close, in fact. Such a situation isn't only allowing its competitor to catch up; it's also creating doubt regarding if they can even fix the problem at all. Yet, they're hoping to right the ship over the next year, where they essentially intend to double their sales. Will they succeed? Only time will tell. Elsewhere in the industry, Electronic Arts has pulled the plug on its 30-year FIFA franchise, opting -- as rumors indicated -- to go it alone. But FIFA is ready to fight back, and with eFootball in the mix, too, things should get quite interesting in the soccer space in the years to come. Plus: Elden Ring sells huge, Gotham Knights is cancelled on PS4, Outriders was a financial dud, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Should cloud saving be free? When should Sony have a games showcase? What ever happened to Army of Two? Will Colin sell Last Stand Media to the communists? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Yes in this wonderful episode we are watching Captain America: The First Avenger as Steve Rogers goes head to head against Red Skull. Will Colin be invested in the Steve/Peggy romance? Will Rob and George be able to control themselves and not spoil the fate of Bucky Barnes? Will Colin miss the present day shenanigans and find the time spent in 1942 completely meaningless?

In this week's episode Daria and Jenny have finally arrived at the penultimate episode of A Countdown to Bridgerton! We talk all things Season 1 - our highs (Anthony's bum, Lady Danbury's hats, everything to do with Benedict), our lows (Anthony's sideburns, *that* scene which never should have been filmed, and pretty much anything to do with Simon - but we still love RJP!) and our hopes and dreams for the future - will Benedict join the Granvilles in a Regency throuple? Will Colin shave off that hideous goatee? And of course, the person we are most excited to see - our girl, Kate Sharma!  We had no book of the week this week, but we highly recommend checking out Julia Quinn's entire Bridgerton back catalogue. It is very enjoyable! And it will be something to keep you occupied after you watch all the episodes in one day (don't lie, we know it's going to happen!)

It's been five years since Horizon: Zero Dawn launched, and finally, we have its sequel. Forbidden West has arrived on PS5 and PS4, and it's awesome. We have a lot to say about it, so we dedicate over an hour to talking about Guerrilla's new open-world action-RPG in spoiler-free terms. But of course, we can't ignore the news. Fresh Project Spartacus rumors suggest a three-tiered subscription that will include hundreds of digital games, classic access, and more. Yet, the upcoming day-and-date release of Shadow Warrior 3 on PlayStation Now seems to conflict with potential timing. What gives? After that, we get into rumors about Call of Duty's new release schedule, the unexpected success of the Uncharted film, Electronic Arts' daring move away from the FIFA brand, Street Fighter 6's underwhelming reveal, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Were David Jaffe's recent comments truly unsavory, or just taken out of context? Why doesn't the games press care more about Japanese RPGs? Can a dying studio ever truly recover its lost reputation? Will Colin ever be able to escape the shadowy specter of Sonic the Hedgehog? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Back to another rankings episode? Yes please! And what an episode we have for you today, as after teasing about this rankings for such a long time it's finally that moment where we're going to rank all of your favourite MI6 crew to finally find out just who we like the best out of all of James Bond's friends at work! Why do we work out a unique way to do rankings this episode that may or may not speed things up a bit? Can we finally break through for our first ever unanimous choice on one number this time around? Why are we being advertised out there on Tinder of all places? Which number will be the most controversial pick? Will Colin get paid a lot of money this time around to simply sit down and talk? Which people should be on this list and which shouldn't be on this list? And will we finally get to rank Verity?

This generation is well underway, and it's official: Sony's PlayStation 5 is 'winning' by a lot. At 10 million units sold and counting, PS5 is the fastest-selling home console ever and a testament to a clearly well-oiled corporation that launched hardware in a supply-constrained, virus-infected environment. We discuss what this huge figure (and accompanying software data) means, and whether Sony should start getting comfortable as the Big Dog yet again. Plus: A new PS5 firmware update is about to fix many of our most glaring UI issues, Mortal Kombat is now the best-selling fighting franchise of all-time, ex-PlayStation CEO Shawn Layden is still very worried about the cost of making games, new PS+ games are on the horizon, and much more. Then: Has a game's controls been so bad that you've refused to play it? Is the Valve Deck about to change everything? Are we underestimating the appeal of XDefiant? Will Colin ever update his LinkedIn profile? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is there any hope of Michelle and Colin remembering the names of any of Katie's beaus? Was there ever a man so little mourned as Chris Harrison? Who oversaw Katie's jean jacket fitting? Is Greg a glassy-eyed psycho or a harmless family man? Is Cat-guy Connor going to sink his claws in for the long run? Is it ever okay to photoshop a love interest into a photo with you? Who started the trend of men wearing flood pants and no socks with a suit? Does the real estate business exclusively attract corny douches? IS IT FOOTBALL OR FUTBALL? Will Colin be forced to watch Bridgerton? Who will be the biggest villain, Aaron or Christian? It's Episode 1 of Katie's season of The Bachelorette and no one is memorable!

It appears PlayStation no longer believes in generations, a quick reversal from its insistence only last year that PS4 and PS5 would be separated by games, and what one console can do that the other cannot. Yet, we now know that PS5's three biggest upcoming exclusives (Horizon: Forbidden West, God of War: Ragnarok, and Gran Turismo 7) are all coming to PS4, too. Not one or two of them. All three. In fact, we don't know about a single PlayStation first party PS5 exclusive after Ratchet & Clank launches (Ratchet & Clank being its only internal exclusive so far!), and that's... well... strange. What is Sony's strategy, and why has it so markedly altered course when not only when compared to its previous behavior in older generations, but its obvious and stated intent as of months ago? Plus, we get into other news. Sony teams Bend and Asobi spring to life, Platinum's lost PS4 exclusive Babylon's Fall may be reemerging imminently, Far Cry 6 is somehow both political and not, EA makes a play for Call of Duty-level success, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Does the success of Netflix's Castlevania series give Konami the perfect opening to release a new game? Is there any way to be a modern gamer while avoiding giving money to Chinese interests? Should developers be forced to release demos for their projects? Will Colin ever play "That Communist Game?"

To the Left! or should we go right? The directionally challenged will shake their heads at this episode when we discover that Donna has a very important choice presented to her by a very special character in Doctor Who lore. With the Doctor removed from time and space, all goes to hell on planet Earth as it is ravaged by the Sontarans, the Empress of the Racnoss, the Adipose, and a giant replica of the Titanic. How will Donna single-handedly take on this challenge? Will Colin appreciate the efforts of this red head? Here we go with number 197!

We've waited long enough: Housemarque's newest PlayStation game has arrived. Indeed, they always seem to be there in a second party capacity at launch, whether it's with Super Stardust for PS3 and Vita, or Resogun for PS4. Yet, their newest offering -- Returnal -- is a stark departure for a team previously known only for its arcadey fare, and so the question is: Do we like it? Well, we've got a whole lot to say (good and bad) in our exploration of the endless loop. Then: News! Sony has acquired a piece of Discord, and the service will be fully integrated into both PS4 and PS5. A redesign for PlayStation 5 is apparently already being redesigned, though it's nothing to get excited about. A new trademark for Sunset Overdrive has people talking about Insomniac's lone Xbox game and its future. And much, much more. Plus: Listener inquiries! Is publishing games on PC actually a really bad idea for PlayStation? Should critics be reviewing games without having finished them?

Recent (still unsubstantiated) rumors indicate Sony may be considering a full shutdown of its digital stores for PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, and -- perhaps most tragically -- PlayStation Vita. While we don't yet know what Sony's plans are (if any!), such a possibility raises a lot of interesting philosophical and practical questions, particularly this one: Who's watching out for the digital-only games that may be lost to history? Today, let's delve deep into the PSN, the digital ecosystem more widely, and the industry's history of piracy-for-good, as well as rampant piracy-for-piracy's-sake. Right or wrong, is it the only way we'll have access to many games in the future? Plus: News! Housemarque's Returnal has gone gold, a Ghost of Tsushima film is in the early stages, Media Molecule's Studio Director is receiving a very prestigious award, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! What did we think about Six Days in Fallujah's gameplay reveal, and the new fiasco(s) that came about as a result? Where are the PlayStation 5 firmware updates? Should Sony seek a partnership with Google's Stadia? Will Colin ever one time comprehend a technical question? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Was that a frickin bison? Season 25 episode 6 of The Bachelor deepens our love affair with the pointlessness of love...

To kickoff Superbowl week we decided to take a look at some of the best players and coaches to have never won an NFL Championship, something many of our players are familiar with. We have Colin, Logan, Omar, and guest JJ on this episode to take a look at some of the best athletes who could not find the winning combination. As always we have trivia between the round to shake things up. Will Colin be able to lift the Vince Lombardi Trophy in victory? Will JJ continue the winning streak of guests? Will Logan or Omar extend their total wins to 3? Tune in and vote for who you think deserves the victory on this weeks episode of Hot Topicks!

When Electronic Arts signed a 10-year exclusive development and publishing deal with Disney for the Star Wars license, it had the potential to be something huge for the lucrative (but oft-under siege) companies. Eight years later, though, it's clear both sides (and EA in particular) have largely squandered the deal, with a couple of Battlefronts, a Rogue Squadron revival, and an admittedly very promising single-player game to show for it. Yet, in the bleakness comes unexpected news, for the monopoly, as it turns out, is broken. Ubisoft's Massive Entertainment -- the group behind The Division -- is hard-at-work on a Star Wars game of its own, begging a rather obvious question: What could it be? We discuss. Plus: A new Killzone seems more unlikely than ever, the team behind Wolfenstein is making a new Indiana Jones game, newly-filed trademarks from Square Enix indicate a widening of the Final Fantasy VII universe, CD Projekt offers a mea culpa over Cyberpunk 2077, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Will Colin really play Final Fantasy XIV? Is Sony spying on our PSN messages? Where's MLB: The Show 21? Should potato chips be eaten ice cold?

What is Victoria talking about? Is there lost footage of Marylynn being unreasonable? Was Matt and Bri's quad flip a stunt or a near-death experience? Do fancy resorts have woodland hot tubs? What is Victoria talking about? Will Colin be able to remember what season we're on ever? Are the bags under Victoria's eyes a bigger medical emergency than Sarah's fainting spell? Do Katie and Anna have access to the mental health resources they desperately need? What is Victoria talking about? Season 25 (Matt James), episode 2 of The Bachelor is full of the crazy we've come to love!

When Martha is kidnapped and dragged off to a very slow highway, the Doctor is subject to the smog and deadly gasses of the super highway to nowhere in order to rescue her. However, Novice Hame may have other plans for the Doctor. Will Kelsey enjoy driving 2 feet per day? Will Colin find his emotions amongst the crab like Macra. Check out our in depth conversation that goes on almost as long as this Gridlock.

The future is dark, bleak, and on the edge of a black hole. The Doctor and Rose land on a space station that should be engulfed in a massive star eater but is impossibly in orbit around it. Mysteries abound with a crew of humans trying to find the source of power holding the planet, and the Doctor loses his TARDIS! Will Colin be possessed by the beast?

It wasn't even a year ago that prolific Polish developer CD Projekt and The Witcher's creator Andrzej Sapkowski found themselves in a legal battle over the beloved fantasy IP. But times certainly do change. Both sides of the dispute have announced that, in the wake of their dispute, they'll now be working more closely together than ever. Go figure. But what does it all mean?! We discuss. Plus: What's with this new DualShock 4 peripheral? Should we be excited about these fresh Capcom trademarks coming out of Japan? Who will buy the Nintendo PlayStation prototype going up for auction next year? Plus, listener questions! Does Sony San Diego have Xbox Series X dev kits? Will Colin get Twin Breaker's Platinum Trophies before anyone else? Why do PlayStation gamers love PornHub so much? How does "Peggy" come from "Margaret"? Learn more about your ad choices.

As the decade draws to a close, we thought it would be fun to give our take on just what were the best movies and TV shows of the last ten years in our eyes. And given that we have two sets of eyes, both a Canadian and Australian set, it brings for one very interesting episode! Will Colin have any that match with Ben? Will Ben have any intelligent choices at all? How do we define when a TV show is classified as being from this decade? Do we have any actual criteria for some of these entries? And can we make this episode as short as we want it and as fun as you want it? It's an episode that will wrap this decade up in style so don't miss it!★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Satellite 5 is home to Simon Pegg, loads of food stands, the Jagrafess, brain opening memory chips, internet access for all with said chip, out of control heater vents, and one person who isn't supposed to be there. Er, make that four people. Will Kelsey like Adam? Will the Doctor improve in this episode? Will Colin get his good bye in? What an episode!

We are one week away from the finale of The Amazing Race Canada, and we have plenty to say on the elimination of this season's most talked about team. How did a jam tasting challenge turn out more physical than most challenges this season? Would sledge hockey have been better used as a Face Off? How did apple sorting turn out to be the most exciting challenge of the episode? Will Colin admit that Rossi was right all along on Lauren and Joanne's greatness? And who has officially locked up the win in our season predictions? Say farewell to Nova Scotia with us as we recap the latest episode of The Amazing Race.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

We're joined by special guest Andy Dierker to talk about what makes a great cooking show, and then we enter the pitching thunderdome to present some of our MOST incredible concepts. Will Colin's adventurous location-based cooking show take the cake? Or will Shawn's wild and possibly offensive challenge-based format come out on top?

In a Christmas episode that was not aired at Christmas, the Doctor travels to 1869 Cardiff during the Christmas holiday where a rift in time and space creates a real phantom in an opera. Gas creatures who were mostly silent, unless they inhabited the dead, were they themselves a deadly vengeance of revenge. The Gelth as they were named end up crashing a Charles Dickens reading of A Christmas Carol and involving The Doctor, Rose, and Gweneth in a plot of certain doom for the human race. Will Colin be the happy medium?

We're back to conclude our special top 50 two-part podcast series as Ben and Colin give their take on what they believe are the top 50 movies of all time! How does our criteria change compared to our top 50 TV shows from yesterday? Was this easier or harder than yesterday? Can we distinguish between our favourite movies and what we think are the best movies of all time? Will Colin and Ben have many of the same movies, more so than the TV shows? Can Ben avoid putting Die Another Day on this list? Will Colin go off about Titanic again? How old will we go back with some of these films and what are the most recent films on our list? Is there a specific genre that we feel is the best more so than others? Why are there so many movies from our childhood that bring a bit of laughter when we bring them up? What movies missed out that perhaps should've made the list? #BringBackBilly. And just what is our top ten and how much debate will be done over it? It's all in another interesting and fun episode so get listening!★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Take 2! We rereview The Impossible Astronaut as Kelsey, Colin, nor Shelby have had a chance to share their thoughts on this first episode from Series 6. Silence falls on Michael who gets sidelined almost as bad as Yaz from the current series due to a lack of vocal chords. Will Colin remember anything about these villians? Will Kelsey like Amy a bit more? Thank you for listening!

We're sticking with AMC shows for this week's Random Rewatch as Rossi chooses the Vertigo Comics TV adaptation Preacher and the Season 2 premiere. Will Colin have an easier time following this week's show with a vague understanding of the original comic? How well is the Genesis power showcased? Have we inadvertently written the Cassidy vampire prequel series? How great is the chemistry between Dominic Cooper and Ruth Negga for a couple that broke up before filming the show? Is season one necessary viewing before starting season 2? How does the show balance the gory violence and horror with witty comedy? Did Colin somehow miss his favourite character dying? Can Rossi pronounce cities from the four corners of the globe correctly? Whether you're from New Orleans, Toronto, Melbourne or Greenwich, we know you're up for our first ever look at Jessie, Tulip, Cassidy, girls locked in cages, and of most importantly JAZZ!★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Can Colin & Ben work out why there isn't a host for this year? What other controversies will happen between now and when the ceremony airs? Do we care about the red carpet arrivals?

Well with a new reboot of Tomb Raider about to hit our screens what better way to celebrate then by going back to the magical year that was 2001 and remember the first attempt at a movie based on the iconic video game as we look at Lara Croft: Tomb Raider in a recap that is sure to divide our hosts. Can Ben finally sell this movie to Colin? Will Colin care enough to want to be sold on it? Why does the robot scene at the very beginning automatically divide both our hosts? Is Angelina Jolie a good or bad action star? What is the deal with Daniel Craig's accent? How amazing are Hilary and Bryce? Are the sets so terrible it takes away from the scenes? What about the CGI? Can the soundtrack at least be praised? And is there anything from this film to look forward to moving into the sequel or the reboot?

It's time to flashback to the year that Ben was born (1987 for those playing at home) and have a dance that doesn't require a shower as we continue our anniversary month by celebrating the 30th anniversary of the most chick-esque chick flick that ever was a chick flick with our recap of Dirty Dancing. And what better way to recap this iconic chick flick then with two straight guys who feel like they may have forced themselves to watch someone put Baby in the corner. Just why does Ben want to quit this episode before it's begun? Will Colin get the blame for choosing this film? Why is Colin married to someone who likes this movie? Can Ben argue his case and still have girls talk to him after the episode? Why the hell do we care that nobody puts baby in the corner when it has no reason behind the line? Why are the characters so bland in this movie? Can Jennifer Grey actually act? Why is the dad so right in this film and the only decent character? And who is Adam? We hope you listen and we hope that all our female listeners choose to keep listening after this episode.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
