March 26, 2021 Episode 213 - Wet Valheim
This Week on The Casual Hour…
Despite the title, we don’t actually talk about Valheim tonight. Instead, we cover a whole host of depressing video game industry news stories. But fear not, we also have some fun by talkin about Loop Hero, Everhood, Subnautica, Cozy Grove and even…DOOM Eternal? All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour.

March 12, 2021 Episode 211 - It’s A Cloaca
This Week on The Casual Hour…
It’s Mario Day, and Nintendo is here to give us deals on old, barely Mario-adjacent games. Thanks…we guess. Outside of the Italian plumber-themed festivities, Chase struggles through Persona 5: Strikers, Bobby’s caught in Loop Hero and Johnny remembers he still has an Apple Arcade subscription. Plus we talk about Pokemon, TMNT and Bethesda news. All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour!

March 05, 2021 Episode 210 - BCE: Big Chase Energy
This Week on The Casual Hour…
We’re previewing the games of March, which means Bobby and Johnny want to talk about Monster Hunter Rise, and Chase wants to talk about anything else. We’ve also dug into the Outriders demo, Chase is in another timezone with Rock n Roll Racing, Bobby’s made Bowser furious and Johnny starting dicing some dungeons and captaining some toads.

February 26, 2021 Episode 209 - The Griefmeister
This Week on The Casual Hour…
Anthem is dead, Valheim is very much alive and we’ve all tried the Project Triangle Strategy demo (and the newly released Persona 5 Strikers). Then the gang comes together to make predictions about Sony’s State of Play, which will be out by the time you hear this episode, so you can hear just how wrong we probably were. All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour.

February 19, 2021 Episode 208 - ABS: Always Be Smeltin’
This Week on The Casual Hour…
Nintendo finally put out a new Nintendo Direct, so we spend most of our show running down the 50-minute presentation, despite mostly being disappointed by the lack of Fire Emblem and Breath of the Wild 2 news. Also, Chase continues to chip away at 13 Sentinels, Bobby is busy building in Valheim and Johnny goes to hell (or Hades, anyway). All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour!

February 12, 2021 Episode 207 - Deep Dive: Pack-In Games
This Week on The Casual Hour…
It’s time for another Casual Hour Deep Dive! This month Johnny takes us through the long history of the pack-in game, and how important a role they played in the making or breaking of a new piece of gaming hardware. From Pong on the Magnavox Odyssey to Astro’s Playroom on the Playstation 5, we cover them all. At least all the ones that matter.
And what’s the point of assembling a list if you don’t arbitrarily determine a winner at the end? To wrap things up Johnny, Bobby and Chase each pick what they think is the greatest pack-in of all time. Who will win? Tune in and find out!
