Cory called in sick. You get the brother. You were warned. Welcome, Listeners.

Colton opens episode 20 with Cory out sick and his middle brother Cade in the chair, a 115-anime weeb who has never finished Bleach (0:20). The villain-hunt clip passed 150,000 views and Colton reads your picks, Cruella and Scar included (3:26). He is locked into the Bleach mobile game because the story is canon (7:14), then finds out Mom and Dad watch the show (10:16). Somebody in New Jersey won the Powerball and the brothers did not play (13:04). Colton resets a rule for episode 20: Joker fans are cringe (19:01), fandoms ruin everything, Rick and Morty started it, and Attack on Titan should have been seasons one, three and four (22:47). Cade drops his sleeper anime picks (28:03) and Colton says Dragon Ball should retire (34:03). GTA 6 is 212 GB and they argue whether anyone plays it for the story (36:17) before Colton calls the male lead a cardboard box (45:43). Cade asks if souls-likes are tired (53:37), Colton calls Elder Scrolls VI Bethesda's last chance (58:55), and they split on whether remasters belong at Game of the Year (1:05:47). Colton makes the case for backing the Mass Effect spiritual successor over EA (1:13:02). One Piece made it into Fortnite (1:23:35), which is where Colton tells a One Piece completionist it is not better than Bleach (1:26:38) and that the final villains look bad (1:35:20). Zoro's actor is playing Mash, live action never works (1:39:50), and physical media is back (1:48:08). Cade survives his first episode (1:49:57).

The Great Spooktacular. Two and a half hours, three hosts, and nobody eats the candy corn. Listen at your own risk.

Caylon is back, Cory shows up in a kilt (5:45), and Cory runs a trick-or-treat rapid fire: one horse-sized Chucky or 100 regular ones (6:53). Outrun Jason on a flat bike or a slow golf cart (9:17). Then the Anime Horror Chaos round (13:44). Caylon finally answers last week's $10 million question (27:40), and a bag of candy corn goes for $1,000 (30:52). Then Bleach is over after 22 years, and Colton walks through the finale he watched as homework (32:26). Bleach: Mirrors High drops (50:47), and Colton reads Kubo's interview (55:38). GTA 6 is three weeks out (1:15:31), 200,000 people sign to save Mass Effect (1:20:53), and nobody agrees on Nightreign (1:22:32). Caylon asks whether AI is coming for his train (1:41:20). They try to work out how the three of them met (1:57:33), Colton relives Caylon's baby shower (2:06:19), and Cory gets the last word on Edgerunners season 2 (2:18:05).

Listen at your own risk. Stay awake until the end. Freddy is counting.

The one where BioWare is gone, and we saw it coming. Colton and Cory open on the worst holiday (2:42) and Cory's dog's emergency surgery (5:57). Colton reads the list that explains why EA shut BioWare down (13:26). They score Edgerunners season 2 (25:15), hear Mr. Krabs in the dub (37:05), and crown Cyberpunk 2077 the game of the decade (39:04). Then it's Thousand-Year Blood War episode 49 (50:14), a doomsday scheduled for November 13 (55:04), and Ken Kutaragi's AI games built from your daydreams (56:46). Cory reveals he's coding his own game (1:00:25) and explains what a fire department does about a comet (1:07:40). They answer last week's question on the scariest kind of horror (1:20:32), get hunted by a horror villain for $10 million (1:30:45), and pick the best anime story ever (1:36:21).

Question of the Week: A horror villain hunts you for 24 hours. Survive and you get $10 million. Who do you pick? You can't pick ours, and Chucky is too easy.

The Do Not Listen Show is a comedy podcast from Shreveport, Louisiana. Colton and Cory have been best friends for fifteen-plus years and have spent most of them arguing about anime, games, nerd culture, and whatever the internet dug up this week. Colton brings the documents. Cory brings the stories. Neither of them hedges.

Listen at your own risk. If you hear three slow knocks while this plays, they are not coming from your door.

The one where a listener sends us their story. Colton and Cory open with last meals (2:58) and a horror body-count quiz where Colton guesses the IRS (7:14). Cory survives a coffee-soaked morning (16:02), draws the line at a Winnie the Pooh tattoo (23:01), and calls Daniel Craig the worst Bond again (25:24). Cory explains the beef between volunteer and career firefighters (28:59) and roasts Carl's Resident Evil 7 fan film (32:26). They size up Edgerunners season 2 (36:57), the jailbroken PS5 (47:51), Naruto's new roadmap (54:16), and the Kishimoto quote that set off the Boruto fandom (59:32). Then the lights go off. Cory reads our first listener submission: three slow knocks and a man with Dad's face (1:12:30). They answer last week's ghost question (1:24:43) and close on why deep water is a no (1:30:46).

Question of the Week: What's the scariest kind of horror? Body horror, cosmic, slasher, monster, or psychological. We break them down next episode.

Listen at your own risk. If something calls your name from the woods during this one, do not answer it.

The spooky one. Colton and Cory build a Scary Movie Mount Rushmore and split hard on Backrooms: Colton gives it a 9.5, and Cory fell asleep twice and gives it a 5. Colton starts a new segment, Hold This L, for Ryan Murphy and this season of American Horror Story. Cory makes the case for Lanterns as a 10/10 and runs Trick or Treat Rapid Fire. Then the lights go off: Appalachian lore, Cory's night inside an abandoned school, the three knocks that ended Colton's dark-arts phase, and a firefighter's ghost story.

Question of the Week: Do you believe in ghosts? And if ghosts and spirits aren't the same thing, tell us why.

Spoilers for the first three episodes of American Horror Story Season 13 start at 11:29. Colton has not slept since. Proceed accordingly.

Colton watched the first three episodes of American Horror Story Season 13 the night they dropped. He came in with no sleep and a lot of opinions. He breaks down how the number 13 went from his favorite to his enemy (15:46), walks through the pentagram Christmas tree and the Black Dahlia's return (32:19), and lays out his Coven-vs-the-devil theory (47:51). Cory traces the curse of 13 from the Last Supper to Loki (54:18). The two rank the best first episodes (56:34), their top three scary movies (1:00:38), and the movies that scarred them as kids (1:08:58). Cory says he can take Chucky (1:22:28). Then the James Bond fight (1:53:33) and a katana-vs-sword argument that ends the episode (2:05:04).

You were warned: two hours of Bleach cope, Kojima receipts, and gym-chocolate science, then the part we actually mean.

Episode 14 opens with the Demon Slayer fans who wanted Colton dead over a robot-apocalypse pick (1:35). Then Cory's new cut and the app that "serves" Colton the bottom of the barrel (3:23). Bleach TYBW episode 48 gets the full treatment. Colton says it was rushed but earns its hopelessness, Kubo really does hate Chad, and the scores land at 8.5 and 7.5 (10:52, 28:59). Cory says every new anime is a knockoff (30:58) and picks the anime worlds a regular person would never survive (32:32). American Horror Story goes to 30-minute episodes (34:00), and Colton asks when we stop making serial killers hot (37:08). Kojima says he and Sony are fine (42:32), Final Fantasy 7 adds auto-leveling (47:11), and Microsoft patents ads on your pause screen (50:14). Fallout, Kingdom Hearts, BioShock and Silent Hill 2 raised them (53:05). Smelling chocolate is worth 18 extra reps (1:04:41), then the Acme movie and Sydney Sweeney's bathwater soap (1:08:00). Bungie brings Destiny back (1:14:12), Colton lines up his October horror reads (1:19:10), and the ocean wins scariest (1:23:51). Cory closes on Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and the friend he lost, and Colton adds his side (1:29:01).

Thirteen episodes in, the only anime character either of us can beat is Usopp. Listen at your own risk.

Cory opens on zombies versus robots and picks robots because he refuses to die anywhere without electricity (0:54). Episode 13 shouts out the Audible listeners (2:22), Colton passes his last exam (3:45), and Cory's son goes full Ghostface and refuses to bathe in character (4:21). Colton explains that every dating app is an algebraic equation built to keep you paying (7:25), Cory pitches Deltora Quest and the two of them go after AI slop (12:06), and Cory runs down the final season of American Horror Story while Colton's only fear is that it's fan-service slop (16:10). Cory argues aliens are real and lays out the zoo theory and the Great Filter; Colton doesn't care about space and doesn't want to know what's in the ocean either (28:42). The Cat in the Hat creepypasta, the 3 a.m. ice cream trucks, and the night Cory drove around Bossier during the Purge (40:02). Which zombie apocalypse actually kills you (48:46), Sony drops Kojima and the Xbox lady swoops in (53:47), the basement dwellers get addressed (1:00:42), and the underrated anime list runs from Bungo Stray Dogs to Shield Hero (1:02:33). Which anime character would you fight for money: Takemichi gets dog-walked and Usopp is worth fifty grand (1:12:38). Bleach pauses before its last two episodes (1:19:04), Insomniac's Wolverine "yearns" for Sabretooth and Colton is out (1:23:28), Advent Children turns 21 (1:33:22), and the unluckiest-story lane gives us toe surgery, a shattered pinky toe before a photo shoot, and a drug raid on Colton's first Louisiana bus ride (1:35:05). Question of the Week: the ocean or outer space, which is scarier (1:46:43).

Caylon is back, Cory is cornered, and nobody in this room is qualified to settle anything. Listen at your own risk.

Caylon is back for the first time in nine episodes, and EP12 goes exactly as chaotic as Colton promised. Housekeeping first: the show is on every audio platform and the site is live (1:07). Colton reviews Buddy and wants his $20 back for the pacing (8:20). Then the updated top-three anime lists come out and none of them agree: Cory rides FMA Brotherhood, Naruto and JJK, Caylon can't get below five, and Colton puts Naruto on his list on sales alone while saying he despises it, with Bleach at number one (17:36). From there it's theme songs, Sailor Moon soloing everybody, the old Toonami catalog, and the moment that got each of them into anime (33:39). Colton opens the Resident Evil reboot debate, a movie set in the universe with zero Resident Evil characters, and everybody lands on trust the vision (48:41). Then the stories: the Wendy's party pack incident, the Forehead Scar Club, and the hotel manager who said the rat video was AI (57:37). Keith Lee's wrong-way-driver post and the comments that turned on him get the sincere minutes (1:04:07). The best-entrance-in-anime argument settles on Ichigo grabbing Aizen by the face (1:23:23). Colton declares Spider-Man the worst superhero of all time (1:28:16). And the main event: Cory's Elden Ring takes set the internet on fire, so Caylon and Colton sit him down to settle it, and nobody wins (1:31:00).

This is the episode where Cory would rather take a bullet than play a Souls game. Listen at your own risk.

Cory is back after Colton's solo episode and the first thing he does is step in gum. The show is now on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, and YouTube Music, the site is rebuilt, and a special guest is booked with $10 on the whiteboard from Cory saying he doesn't show (3:36). Colton pays $420 for the Final Fantasy VII Revelation collector's edition and reports the director's biggest fear is that Vincent Valentine is too fun to put down (16:25). The new Halloween game turns out to be Dead by Daylight with the safeguards removed (21:22). Mortal Shell 2 drops and Cory announces he would rather be shot than play a Souls-like (30:17), then extends the sentence to Assassin's Creed, which he says has been the same game since the beginning (36:34). Colton brings a local story: two Caddo Parish deputies swapped wives ten years ago, got fired, lost at the Louisiana Supreme Court, and just went viral again (43:05). Cory describes the average Souls player in detail Colton promises to clip out of context (48:23). Bleach got review-bombed over the Kubo changes and Re:Zero overtook it with no intro or outro (52:57). The back half is best anime entrances and exits: Madara, Maki, Toji, Escanor, Jiraiya, Neji, and Colton calling Rengoku vs. Akaza the best fight in one of the worst shows ever made (1:06:53). Sword Art Online fell off because it rushed the manga and got stuck in the fairy world twice (1:21:56).
