The Pitch

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.

Avengers vs X-Men #4

At a compound, in an around the lake with mountains coming out of the sky, Dean assumes his destiny. At least that's what Rusty hopes will happen. This excellent episode takes the clone storyline to an unexpected place as Dean finally gets a chance to grow up, while an old part of him wants to take his place instead.

Special thanks to Joshua Jarett for our cover art, Gwen May for our theme song, and Brayton Cameron for being our announcer.

Throw another entry onto our list of games about snacks. But Pringles: The Game isn't an official product... it's a Sega Genesis ROM created by a hobbyist in the 21st century. This is a labor of love, made only out of enthusiasm for those pressed salty shavings.

You wrote in with your thoughts about Ashen, and they helped clarify our own dim view of the game's merits. This appendix features the highest concentration of beatdowns any single dungeon has gotten on an episode of our show, so, congrats, Seat of the Matriarch!

Listen, there's a lot to talk about here. You could talk about how we've been doing this show for a decade, or about how Sonic exemplifies the tension between freeform arcade gameplay and the slower, more exploratory form of platformers that would ultimately win out in the end, but the real story here is that I need you to imagine a screenshot of a notes app post where I apologize for mixing up the seed drill and the cotton gin in this episode.

Big thanks to Gwen Static for this awesome remix of the theme song!
