Put your thinking cap on, throw your PC in the garbage, and get that Old Nintendo setup ready. It's time for three men in their 30s with silly internet handles talking about old RPGs, but specifically worse versions of those old RPGs that came out on the Famicom or TurboGrafx or something if you didn't own a $800 (in 1992 money) computer. If you want an onerous history of the medium as seen through the versions of games they put out on consoles, we have you covered up to the mid-90s! How are you supposed to pronounce "Faxanadu?" Is this the return of Drakkhen you weren't expecting? All that and more in this episode!

We finally did it folks, we made a football podcast. In the inagural episode of Amateur Hour Adam "Borgmaster" -REDACTED-, Tyler "Grav" -REDACTED-, and Gino discuss what the heck American football is, make several pre-season predictions about the many NFL teams, and wrap things up by going through the most terrifying thing of all: bespoke statistical models.

We'll have more bonus football episodes for you as the season rolls on!

The year is 2003. You're stuck on a car ride to your grandmother's house with a Game Boy Advance in hand. The only thing standing between you and crushing boredom are the three portable video games Braden, Chris, and Adam are covering on this episode of Off the Deep End. Will you be able to harness the power of the sun in Boktai, train your Medabots to be the very best, or consult your Meat Dictionary in SaGa 2? Is Boktai even an RPG? Listen back in my day you had to shove a worm light onto your game boy to see in the dark uphill in the snow both ways. Now kids these days have iPads and iPhones and Nintendo Switches.
