The Hard Drive Podcast

Is this the TOAD WARRIOR of Captain N???? Who cares because this episode is insane. Kevin's dog finds a magic lamp that has a dickhead genie willing to grant unlimited wishes to whoever holds it, which almost immediately leads to Eggplant Wizard kissing two sexy tomatoes, King Hippo conquering Kongoland with fascist gorillas, and a deeply depressed Kid Icarus who became Too Big. Oh yea, this episode is also probably an explanation from the writer as to why there's nothing wrong with having a tiny penis. Top tier Captain N episode.

Oh my god, it's time for the thrilling conclusion to last week's insane cliffhanger!!! Too bad Mark and Jeremy spend so much of this week's episode looking up facts about Pepsiman, making fun of the show's depiction of "Cutsman," and sassily editing the official Captain N wiki with "mistakes" in the show's logic. To the warp zone!

Gweetings, Paisanos! On this week’s Captain N, Mother Brain hatches a plan to make, rig, and win a fake video game olympics in Videoland so that she can steal some treasure or something. This episode features Mega Man learning how to throw a shot put, Donkey Kong and Eggplant Wizard forming a tag team, Dracula and Simon Belmont having a ski race, and it’s only part one of a cliffhanger! To the wadar woom!

Comedian, actor, and Ace Watkins body double PHIL JAMESSON joins the podcast to discuss this episode in which Kevin has to fight a robot version of his high school bully! We learn Simon Belmont's biggest fear (Dracula) and Kevin's dog's biggest fear (being chased by many cats). But most importantly, we are introduced to Wombatman, this show's parody of Batman who is a literal wombat and has sex with a human woman but SAYS EXPLICITLY that he does not love her. 

Captain N heads to the Bayou to hang with Billy Bayou himself — or so we think, because the animators ran out of budget to finish filling in all of the backgrounds this episode. But who cares? Eggplant Wizard steals every goddamn scene in this episode. He turns King Hippo into a salad, and then a boat, and lastly, a fool. Eggplant Wizard ride or die gang.

WELCOME TO SEASON TWO OF THE PODCAST, PAISANOS! Mark and Jeremy embark on a quest to watch and discuss every episode of 1989's Captain N: The Game Master, a cartoon about a boy named Kevin who gets pulled into an NES with his dog. There, Kevin befriends Simon Belmont, Megaman, and Kid Icarus — none of which seem even remotely related to their video game counterparts. Meanwhile in the live action, nothing happens. This show's all cartoon, sewer simps!

The boys look back on all the highs and lows of the previous year and a half, and discuss highlights of the Super Mario Brothers Super Show. In addition to top 5 lists for favorite episode, guest star, and series MVP, Mark and Jeremy single out a few series highlights and other notable moments this glorious fever dream of a video game commercial has provided.

Mark and Jeremy watch and discuss the FINAL episode of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! Fittingly, it's very racist. Mario and Luigi head back to the city of Sayonara seeking the help of a mythical ninja, voiced by a white guy doing a painfully bad accent, to defeat Karate Koopa (who wants to kidnap the gang and sell them as slaves). Meanwhile in the live action, Captain Lou Albano fucks up a line so bad he stops talking for the rest of the episode.
