But first, a journey into Hades 2, Ryan and Kayden watch JAWS, and Crofton gets on his soapbox about the different types of game design underpinning the Game of the Year race this year. Come listen!

All of that and more television as things continue to Upload and murders keep happening in the building! Come listen!

No topic this week as the boys catch-up on the considerable amount of things that they have been doing, playing, reading, and watching. From roller coasters to Minecraft experiences, from Rogue Princes of Persia to Hollow Knights of Silksong, from big Netflix films of the year, to a possible book of the century, and more. Peruse to your leisure and catch up with Ryan and Crofton as this is Peak Dungeons and Diapers, sans the diapers.

The alarm has sounded: the CORE boys are up to no good and poor Crofton is the victim. This special edition provides Crofton's counterpoint to Beau's "Valheim Story" from CORE 480. Should you be a listener of both shows, you will enjoy this. Should you only listen to DaD then there is no other version of this story.

It is time for Ryan and Crofton to examine the addictive video game drugs of the kid world: Minecraft and ROBLOX. But they are not the experts and invite Gwen and Kayden to visit and explain the appeal of these blocky games. Meanwhile, Crofton tries to get some points in the DaD competition by reading Kazuo Ishiguro's seminal novel Never Let You Go where Ryan goes back to the theatre to watch the latest version of The Fantastic Four. All of that and they both play the same video game at the same time (Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, not Final Fantasy). Come listen!

With Ryan and Crofton now proud owners of Nintendo Switch 2s, there has never been a better time to look back over the life of the original Nintendo Switch and the priceless memories - both good and bad - it left them with. Ryan also goes bananas for Donkey Kong: Bananza while Crofton hard sells Old Skies, the new adventure game from Wadjet Eye Games. All this and Ryan finally goes to a museum and gets some culture. Come listen!

This week the boys are finally disciplined enough to focus on a hot topic: how to discipline your kids. They swap strategies and share meltdowns. But before that, they fight the supernatural with Ryan's thoughts on the latest zombie thriller - 28 Years Later - and Crofton's musings on the state of KPOP Demon Hunting. All of that and Ryan visits the ER in The Pitt while Crofton updates the unfortunate state of professional wrestling in mid-2025. Come listen!

Today Ryan and Crofton go the dentist. House of horror or necessary evil? That is the question. The boys regale with stories of kids and teeth. But those are not the only stories, as Ryan supports his kids in opening a business and then blowing their earnings at the racetrack. Meanwhile, Crofton is itching to talk about Clair Obscur and the Nintendo Switch 2. Oh, and itching because he has lice. Come listen!
