Like a disgusting, vulgar Phoenix, Podtoid once again rises from its feculent ashes. This time around, the roster consists of Max Scoville, Conrad Zimmerman, Jonathan Holmes, and Andy Dixon. Join them as they discuss Witchers, big crabs, Molemen, facial hair, and very briefly... video games. 

It's the Halloween special, and the gang resurrects a long-dead friend -- MAX SCOVILLE! Yes, the former Podtoid co-host Dtoid Show star is back ... and he may be a regular fixture. He joins the group to discuss Val Kilmer's Halloween Haunting, Ron Perlman's chrome cock, and whether Jonathan Holmes would look good dressed as Aqualung. 

As if that wasn't enough, we avoid discussing Arkham Origins, pay tribute to Lou Reed, and do all sorts of Halloween fun times. We also celebrate the darker holiday known as Kevinween. Oooooh!

On this week's episode, the gang opens an authentic Vietnamese restaurant with Jonathan "Lucky Dragon" Holmes' genuine recipes, while Willem Dafoe suffers a nipple-flavored curse at the hands of Brad Dourif. Elsewhere, there is talk of Aliens, Surface Pros, and Splatterhouse. 

Also, Jonathan is totally arrogant and obsessive, and that's why nobody should listen to Podtoid!

On this week's Podtoid, the gang opens Boston's best fetish dungeon, Jonathan Holmes preserves the sperm of the greatest living human, Paul Stanley encourages his friends, and stalkers get stalked by stalkers who stalk stalkers. Oh, and Jonathan Holmes becomes Edwunk Clunken, star of an all-new Twilight saga!

As if that wasn't enough, we manage to talk about Watch Dogs, and some other game things. Most importantly, we shake it like Prince! 

Danny Baranowsky is in the house, back with the Podtoid gang by popular demand. The game composer is on hand to talk about Jonathan going face-down-ass-up, Conrad pottering about in the garden, and Julia Child scaring children with a penis ghost. Oh, what fun. 

There's also loads of talk about what exactly is wrong with Beyond, NES games, and videogame music stuff!

On this week's Podtoid, Jonathan Holmes finally breaks bad, but not before he runs the sexiest dog hotel you ever did see! Elsewhere, Willem Dafoe goes to Heaven and meets a saucy Dolly Parton, while MANY OTHER THINGS HAPPEN!

There's also some sly hintings at the Pokermans, and other game stuff I can't remember because it's game stuff.  

It is an experimental new Podtoid, as this week we recorded the questions segment live! Yes, the question part of the show was broadcast online and we answered queries in REAL TIME! It went of surprisingly well, too. 

Elsewhere, Jonathan Holmes because the villainous rogue, Dandy Snuff, and also gave us a glimpse into the ghastly circus that is ALL mental hospitals. There was talk of Tingle's little penis, Grand Theft Auto V's torture fun, and cossacks. So many cossacks.

It's the satire special of Podtoid this week. To celebrate Grand Theft Auto V, we're having Jonathan Holmes commit hate crimes in Boston ... ironically! Elsewhere, Willem Dafoe thinks back on a fine luncheon, Holmes becomes everybody's Asian girlfriend (while also being a murderer), and there's a brand new safe word invented for the show. Suds me up with soap and foam, please!

As if that wasn't enough, there's some chat about GTA V reviews, the Ouya's recent silliness, and the similarities between gaming and religion!

Jonathan Holmes attempts a PS Vita fillibuster but is foiled by plans to burn all his possessions, waterboard him with gasoline, and force him to perform gratuitious sexual acts on amphibians in the name of musical theater. 

That said, some game talk does squeak out. Jim reveals how he got harassed over Grand Theft Auto V, the GTA series as a whole is compared to Animal Crossing, and Jonathan manages to say something about that bloody PS Vita TV thing. Just a little bit. Just a little. 

Jim is sick with the PAX flu, but still forced himself to deliver a steaming bag of degradation and filth. This week, the gang discusses what they did at PAX, plans for future PAX attendance (or non-attendance), and the prospects of Jonathan Holmes becoming an impressive luchadore with the help of his backdoor pinata. 

As if that wasn't enough, OTHER THINGS ARE SAID!
