The Pitch

This week go back to basics by starting up a brutal one-man factory farm in Stardew Valley. This indie successor to Harvest Moon is a phenomenon, with tons of people succumbing to the wide variety of tasks and its charming aesthetic. In fact, the combination of all of the elements is so much greater than the sum of its parts that it manages to make us enjoy certain gameplay elements we wouldn't like in other games. Listen in to hear about life on the farm, or in the mines, or on the docks, or...
Thanks, Zack!

Sidekicks, henchmen, butlers, and scientists are being abducted all around the world, and Rusty feels left out. But he likely wouldn't have lasted at the Farm, where Zeus and his general pit the abductees against each other in mortal combat. Thankfully, Henchman 21 has a plan.

Everything To Guppy is normally an improvised comedy show about the Binding Of Isaac. This week, it's a commentary track for Episodes 4.15 and 4.16 (The Gift Pt. 1 and The Gift Pt. 2) of the NBC sitcom Wings. No, they're not on Hulu.

This might be the dumbest one we've done.

(Note: This extra-big commentary is the only episode we'll be releasing this week. Regular Isaac coverage resumes next week.)

A boring Battlezone clone's hilarious manual sets us off onto talking about business monsters again. You might not believe that Forbes Corporate Warrior exists. You might not WANT to believe that Forbes Corporate Warrior exists. You aren't ready for Forbes Corporate Warrior to exist.

Everything To Guppy is a bite-sized, four-times weekly comedy/gaming podcast in which Gary Butterfield (Watch Out For Fireballs) and William Hughes (The A.V. Club) attempt to analyze every single item, boss, character, and concept in the rogue-lite video game The Binding Of Isaac. They manage to pull it off only slightly less than 50 percent of the time.
