Today on the 5: After the announcements of the new Sony and Microsoft consoles, many publishers have committed to providing free or reduced cost next gen upgrades on new games. For those who don't, I'm curious why anyone would buy a second copy of a game?

Today on the 5: In what has become what feels like a weekly story, yet another high profile game has botched a patch and then further scrammed it in a subsequent update. How can major developers be so bad at this?

This week we're talking about fire tornadoes, The Umbrella Academy, and Money Plane. Show music by HeartBeatHero and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: For the final entry in my short story series, we're heading back to the Expanded Universe days of Star Wars. Of the many collected stories that came from that period, I think Tales Of The Bounty Hunters is my favorite to revisit.

Today on the 5: For the third day of my week long series on short story collections, it's back to horror. This time I'm going with Clive Barker, and the pick is In The Flesh.

Today on the 5: For the second entry in my week long series on short story collections, I'm switching to science fiction. Today, I'm talking about the magnificent Isaac Asimov collection Robot Visions.

Today on the 5: For the first entry in my week long series on short story collections, I'm starting with my personal favorite of all the Stephen King short collections: Night Shift.

This week we're talking about Doctor Who, Dying Light, and Tiger Claws. Show music by Reed Love and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: Today I have another Cynthia Rothrock vehicle with 1991's Tiger Claws. This one turned out to be a very welcome return to some entertaining 90s martial arts action.

Today on the 5: Samsung held an event last week that included a new version of the Z Fold. I'm still not anywhere near being convinced foldable phones are the future, but I have to admit the Z Fold 2 looks like a big improvement over the first iteration.
