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.

Hello! It's finally here: The Bonfireside Chat Dark Souls Randomizer series. Gary and Kole are doing simultaneous Let's Play videos of Dark Souls: Remastered, with the Enemy Randomizer and Item Randomizer turned on. Every assumption about how things work in Lordran is stripped away, and chaos is the new order.

HERE IS THE VIDEO PLAYLIST FOR YOU TO SEE! 

New videos will be released every day, alternating between Gary and Kole's runs.

TO VIEW THE VIDEOS: Bookmark this playlist link. This series is a perk for our loyal patrons, so we will be releasing the videos as unlisted YouTube links, in an unlisted playlist. We will do our best to have the new installments ready for you by noon eastern each day.

The 90s really were the pits, weren't they?

A blooming onion but for cheese.

This is it, the last of our modern FromSoft soundtrack analyses. Sekiro sounds very different from the other Souls soundtracks, for obvious reasons, but it still contains lots of touches that make it fit in with its brothers and sisters. Listen in to hear us talk about what works and what doesn't.

Reminder that you can read along with and ahead of the show by subscribing to Marvel Unlimited (we don't get paid for you doing that, so it's not an ad, it's just a cool service). You can also use Comixology, or buy the trades from your local comic book shop (the preferred method, if we're being honest). Be sure to check with your local library to see if they have them there!

Welp, we're sick of Egypt now!

D12s... Not even once.

This very boring movie is a relic of the Satanic Panic of the 1980s, when concerned parents everywhere got very scared of Dungeons and Dragons without actually learning about the game. Tom Hanks takes a leading role in a story about a college student who loses track of the distinction between fantasy and reality, and his impossibly rich and preppy friends try to lie to the police so they can save him themselves.
