Peterson trolls JD with some headlines. In the news - women play video games, EA extorting college football players, GME CEO fired, Amazon tries really hard to ruin Twitch some more, and some riblets. We breakdown Summer Game Fest and the XBox Games Showcase. We talk a lot about Starfield. Trent gives his first impression of Diablo 4 and does a review for Crab Champions.

Peterson gets some goat worms in his brain that don't let him shut up about goat. Schreier does a writeup about the boofing of Redfall, NVIDIA stock price hike, Bobby Kotick with his foot all the way in his mouth. We play a game of gaming Taboo, Peterson does a rundown of Omega Strikers, and Trent takes a mulligan.

We have some news about a board game exec being the worst (We are getting a Blurstie nom almost every week now), Gollum devs apologize for their terrible game, Blizzard doing Blizzard things, Sony unveils a handheld and, of course, riblets. JD asks what game do we wish they'd make a better version of. We debut a new segment where we have some kids answer gaming questions. Trent picks his Dice game.

Trigger warning: we find out Trent has never seen The Princess Bride and JD has never seen Galaxy Quest.

In the news we have Steam's timed demos, Hogleg morale system cut, Amazon Studios' LotR MMO, Overwatch 2 PvE is cut and some riblets. Then we do a Dear Game Devs for secondary characters as the main characters (a la Gollum). Jenna reviews Bloody Hell.

We get stuck on the Riblets bit tonight, so you'll have to deal with that. Peterson does a First Impression for Against All Odds. We do a Dear Game Devs for a Superman game (and a Bizarro version). Jenna picks her Dice game.

Okay, so we went a little long on this one. We had two extra hosts lined up and they both had to bail last minute for different reasons so it was just JD and Peterson. You know things get out of hand when it's just the two of us!

In the news we have the Michael Scott Paper Company of Kickstarters, Apple Arcade, Phil Spencer apologizes for Redfall, and the Hollywood writer's strike. Peterson piggy backs on that to ask what would a video game industry strike look like. Then we fire up the grill for a Foodio Games about burgers that gets out of hand. JD reviews Plan B: Terraform.

This week we have some news on Sega, Horizon Forbidden West DLC drama, and Wizards of the Coast using Pinkertons. Then Peterson gives a rundown of Mordhau and we talk about some memorable non-standard game modes that we've played (like horde mode, etc). JD picks his Dice game.

This week Peterson is coked out...on Coke Zero. We have news about a Pentagon leaker, Twitch cutting safety budget, some deadly game-related insults, and the worst Pokemon thief of all time. We do a couple of first impression roses for Caliber and Wall World. Then Peterson reviews Wrestling Empire.

This week all of the news is about the Mario movie so we do the Good, Bad, and Ugly of video game movies, play some Would You Rather, and Peterson takes a mully on his Dice of Destiny game. Jenna laughs like Michael Jackson.

Aaron and Trent join us to talk some news (Including a new, tighter news segment). Then Aaron talk about the Diablo 4 beta and we play some Be Kind, Rewind about Easter Eggs (since we recorded on Easter...get it?). Peterson picks his Dice of Destiny game.
