I'll tell you what I don't want, what I really really don't want.

FromSoft announced a new game a couple of weeks ago, and we decided to record an Appendix episode about it. We expound on the little we know about Elden Ring, and offer up our hopes and concerns for the new title.

Everything To Guppy is a bite-sized, four-times weekly comedy/gaming podcast in which Gary Butterfield (Watch Out For Fireballs) and William Hughes (The A.V. Club) attempt to analyze every single item, boss, character, and concept in the rogue-lite video game The Binding Of Isaac. They manage to pull it off only slightly less than 50 percent of the time.

Hold on to your pineal glands, it's From Beyond!

Let's get ready to horny! Stuart Gordon looked at a seven page Lovecraft story about seeing extradimensional beings, and said "I can make a movie out of that." The result is From Beyond, where overactive pineal glands enable shapeshifting and confer BDSM fascinations. It needs to be seen to be believed.

Mostly a story about sewer pipes.

We round out puzzle month with the ultimate "puzzle" game, so elemental that you can't imagine it not existing. Alexy Pajitnov and a crew of colleagues in the USSR birthed the game, and it followed a long and complicated trail to becoming a worldwide phenomenon.

This episode relates that story, talks about how Tetris has changed over the years, and looks at some recent excellent Tetris games.

Phil Hartman was a hero of comedy. Referred to as "The Glue" on the set of SNL, his special skill was to hold his co-stars together and be whatever they needed in order to make the sketch work. Consummate and dependable supporting players are extremely rare, and he managed to lift everyone around him up in a way that's  admirable. Hartman's untimely death was absurdly tragic, and the fact that one of his last performances was in Blasto is depressing to the extreme.
