    We have a full house today with Gino, Pete, Em, Chris "ZombiePie" -REDACTED-, and Braden "ArbitraryWater" -REDACTED- all present to discuss Mass Effect Andromeda.

  • Deep Dives: Lost in the Sauce-Part 1

    In this pilot episode, Em and roommate Harley (in his podcasting debut) begin an exploration into the hit 2004 TV show Lost, deep diving into the first half of season 1. We cover the essential characters, the narrative structure of present day and flashback, and begin to unpack the many J.J. Abrams' mystery boxes that defined the series as a cultural phenomenon.

  • Ojisancast 03: Berserk (1997)- Free Sample

    Pete, Chris, and Braden return to the magical world of old anime to cut through the 1997 adaptation of Berserk! Join them as they discover why the Golden Age arc keeps getting remade, why we need to put a big old CONTENT WARNING in front of this episode, and why every single Dark Souls game owes a lot to this series.

  • Off the Deep End Episode 53: Skald: Against the Black Priory

    In a surprising upset, Off the Deep End covers a video game they enjoyed playing; from this year no less! That's right, Braden and Chris take a break from "The Bad Xenosaga" and "The Bad Mass Effect" to talk about the retro-inspired indie RPG Skald: Against the Black Priory. They discuss its cosmic horror story, extremely 1989 aesthetic, and the ways in which it still manages to be modern, all while desperately avoiding talking about how our current reality resembles a cosmic horror nightmare!
