We’re here to finish out Season 2 with not a bang, nor a whimper, but one fantastic episode and two absolutely dismal episodes. First, Gary and Jeremy travel through millions of miles of space to direct the X-Men in three brand new TV shows. That’s right, we FINALLY get to meet Mojo, and I’m not kidding when I say this is the best episode of the series so far. The last two episodes are spent in the (grooaaaaannn) Savage Land wrapping up the seasons long questions of “where’s xavier?” and “why do we have to talk about the Savage Land so much?” They’re not great episodes, but luckily bad episodes make fertile ground for great goofs.
At the end of this episode we talk about a poll to decide whether we’re going to cover X-Men 2 or the failed pilot of Generation X next on the show. We’re not gonna do that poll. Instead, the next episode will cover X-Men 2, and we’re going to save Generation X for a surprise thing Duckfeed is doing.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross delve through Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for our 150th episode spectacular!
We're creatures of habit and pattern, not creatures of the night. Whenever we hit one of these big anniversary episodes, we want to blow the doors off and really play something noteworthy. Symphony of the Night is one of the most beloved games of all time. It took elements of Super Metroid, added RPG elements, and created a genre that still dominates certain parts of the industry. But looking back, we try to decide if it all hangs together as well as we remember.
Thanks so much for listening and joining us for 150 episodes (and more).

Let's find out what's next for Roland, and meet the first of many new friends.
This week, Kole Ross is joined by Evan Jones Thorne, Jeremy Greer, and Stephen Veilleux to kick off season 2 of the show, "The Drawing of the Three". We rejoin Roland as he sits on the beach, dreaming in a daze about the words of the Man in Black as a Lobstrosity bites his fingers off. And that's just the start of Roland's no good very bad day, as he sets out to find his door into the mind of Eddie Dean, one of the best characters in the series.
