Hopped-Up 64

This week, the gang solves the question "Which SNES Classic game is the best?" through things like solid evidence and facts. But first Dave lets us know his feelings on Final Fantasy: Kingsglaive, Mike's been playing some free PSPlus games, Matt made his own SNES Classic purely out of spite, and Kelly remains on his Destiny bullshit. Hosts: Chris Norris, David Beebe, Kelly Wright, Matt Emery, Mike Parker Beer of the Week: Tofino Brewery's Blonde Ale Music by Sebastian Bender

This week, 2nd-time guest Jack Shirai comes in to discuss with us the matter of gas-powered robots. Other Important issues include: our teenage drinking habits, Pacific Rim slashfic, and our many, many Destiny 2 defeats.

This week, we discuss the finer points of Stephen King's ouevre while sipping fine, oak-aged beer. Then after that we talk about why furry afficianados need to buy an SNES Classic. It's a smooth transition. Also this week Matt brings up his favourite animes involving supernatural nocturnal creatures, we vet Ken Burns' haircut, and give a history lesson on how the NGage destroyed Finland.

This week, the gang decides that pewdiepie's gotten too big for his britches, and they're the *only ones* who can end his reign of terror. By idly and impotently discussing the latest stupid, racist thing he's done while simultaneously making fun of Sweden. But also, Happy Destiny 2 week y'all! We here at the Destinyfa clan would like you to know that we're currently enlisting! Are you tired of people who just don't know when to pop their ult? Who confuse a heroic public event for a patrol? If so, then stay the *hell* away from our clan, because we honestly don't know what we're doing!

To be sure, it's not that we at Supper Hopped-Up are *Pro* cult, we're more cult-adjacent. This week we decode the Anti-Fap riddle, planning the constitution for our flat leadership-structured Destiny 2 clan, and which fantasy gods would be down to party. Matt also discusses to us his arduous journey of self-discovery completing Pillars of Eternity, Norris discusses hammering nerds at PAX West, and we lay down our opinions on the topic everyone's talking about: furry communities banning nazi regalia. Hosts: Chris Norris, David Beebe, Matt Emery Beer of the Week: Martens Lager Music by Sebastian Bender

This week starts with some honest discussion on circular self-love, and kind of just devolves into a deep dark pit for a while. We get out of it though with some good beer, brought to us by nepotism! Also this week Dave's at the helm of the intergalactic bang bus, Kelly plans a hostile takeover of our future Destiny 2 clan, and Norris loves the shadows in his heart. Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, David Beebe, Kelly Parker Beer of the Week: Two Wolves Brewing Co. Arctic Blonde Ale & Great Plains Brown Ale Music by Sebastian Bender

Gather 'round all and I'll tell you a tale. A tale of an adorable miniature console and the planet it destroyed. There's first some bad poetry and sci fi. But for real at the day of recording was the day the SNES Classic went up for pre-order. And it was an absolute *nightmare.* Blood on the streets. A massacre. Also Diablo 3, Injustice 2, and idly discussing a new Nidhogg tournament. A new champion must be crowned! Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Kelly Parker Beer of the Week: Twa Dogs Brewery's Melodie Raspberry Kölsch Music by Sebastian Bender

The gang finally bends the knee this week to Game of Thrones fandom, where despite our best efforts we talk about this latest season. Dave also throws down against Baby Driver, Mike swears he knows Star Wars, and Norris is super excited about a Batman movie marathon. Also even *more* Zelda: Breathe of the Wild talk, and we all decide the phrase "Penis Parker" is hilarious. Oh hey, also! There's going to be a counterprotest in Vancouver this coming Saturday - Aug. 19th - at City Hall, protesting against a group of chinless wastes who are holding an anti-Muslim protest. If you want to help stand against racism you can come out and join some members of SHU, who will be attending the counter-protest! http://bit.ly/2vCL0PI Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, David Beebe Beer of the Week: Hollows and Fentimans Fermented Ginger Beverage Music by Sebastian Bender

The boys are in the house this week, as we try to decide which Cory would make the best final boss. Also discussed, pivoting the podcast from video games to sex gear, before deciding video games may actually be the grosser topic. Also: Hearthstone expansions, Valve's new game announcement, reality television, Resident Evil, Persona 5, Pyre, and sexual exploitation in the game industry. One of those may be different than the others. Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, David Beebe, Kelly Wright Beer of last Week: Spinnakers Juice Monkey Tropical IPA Music by Sebastian Bender

We tricked a real-live guest into the studio this week: Kevin Regamey, one of the founders of Power Up Audio and the current record holder for the Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons speedrun. So we prettied up for company and diverted from our usual bullshit, in order to talk up the speedrunning community, some of the methodologies behind glitch hunting, and what drives someone to want to go *as fast as possible* through a heartwarming game about family. Other topics include: using beds to kill dragons, hypest GDQ moments, and making mods for old PC games. Also hey if you want to get into the thriving scene of speedrunning Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons go tweet at Kevin, his twitter handle's below!
