Join Kyle Von Kubik, John E. Capcom, and Peter Graphic as they crack open a can of spinach and punch their way through Popeye (1990) and Popeye 2 (1991) for the Nintendo Game Boy. Two portable adventures starring animation's most famous sailor man. Along the way, they tackle one of the franchise's greatest mysteries: Is it Bluto or Brutus? One thing's for sure: it isn't Blutus. That's nobody.

On this episode of ONE RAD PODCAST, Kyle VonKubik and John E Capcom take on Retro Game Challenge 1 and 2 from 2009, a pair of games built around a lovingly idealized version of late 80s and early 90s childhood gaming.

From made up retro titles to in game magazines and cheat codes, these games do not just recreate the past, they remix it into something a little too perfect. Kyle and John unpack what feels authentic, what feels exaggerated, and why that version of growing up still hits so hard, even if it may not have been quite this perfect the first time around.

On this episode of ONE RAD PODCAST, Kyle VonKubik and John E Capcom tackle two games with roots in the Wonder Boy family tree: Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom (2018) and Super Adventure Island II (1994).

One is colorful and polished, the other is weird and surprisingly ambitious, and both give the guys plenty to talk about. They compare notes on gameplay, trace their shared DNA, and inevitably get pulled back into their ongoing argument about the term "Metroidvania."

History, hot takes, and at least one unnecessary semantic debate included at no extra charge!

This week, John E. Capcom and Kyle Von Kubik talk Civilization (1991), with a focus on the KOEI-published Super Nintendo / Super Famicom version. We discuss the mysteries of The Wheel, rewriting history, and the very real danger of Gandhi getting the bomb. It is all about exploring, expanding, exploiting, and exterminating like a genetic freak with a 144 and 2/3 precent chance of global domination. Holla if you hear us!

This week, Kyle has the night off as Peter Graphic and our very own Nekobun verbally shake their groove thang while reviewing Disco Elysium (2019), a game that is not about disco dancing, but is about murder.

This week, John E. Capcom and Kyle Von Kubik race back to the early days of polygonal racers on the Sony PlayStation. They discuss the groundbreaking, if anemic by today’s standards, Ridge Racer (1993), big-budget E3 cringe, and the formative early days of the 32-bit console generation.
