Is Dorito's dip an acceptable sandwich filling? Asking for a friend...

In this podcast: Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise, Minecraft, BallisticNG, Red Dead Redemption and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment.

We return after a rare break in schedule to look forward to 2026... or try to. It's really hard.

Return to us in two weeks for more.

With the console wars over, gamers need more things to fight about. Not to worry though. Some will still get mad about The Game Awards every year. Let's have it!

On top of that, Zac explores Metroid Prime 4. Meanwhile, Rob gets to the core of Donkey Kong Bananza and rolls deep in LocoRoco.

I need to rush this post out before our IT department decides to roll out more security "upgrades".

Rob tries to solve mysteries on the future tube in Subsurface Circular and gorges on potassium with Donkey Kong. Zac tries more "brutal" survival tactics in Stationeers and tries to uncover the game of Powerwash Simulator 2. Meanwhile, Dan intentionally damages his hearing.

Yes! Just in t...

What about a lie based economy? Instead of getting most of your wealth from jobs, get it from AI managed libel detectors that automatically charge anyone for talking smack about you. For a small upgrade, you can opt-in to all "alternative fact" class action payments. With quick and completely unreasonable wins for everyone a new natural order will be formed! Join us!

Before this come to pass, there is this podcast with only a tiny amount of unintended mistruth. In this episode, Rob punches walls for bananas with Donkey Kong Bananza, Zac tries another survival game in the form of The Last Caretaker and Dan gets hype for Valve's reveals of Steam Machine and Steam Frame.

After extensive study, we can now say that swapping fruit for pies and crisps does not lead to significant physical performance improvements.

In this podcast, Halo is kinda, sorta, back, maybe, a Nintendo patent gets rejected, Rob goes Cruis'n around the world and Zac listens to sick rifts.

We keep making these things so you can keep your ears busy. Some doctors do say to keep busy in order for you to keep healthy and you would like to keep those ears wouldn't you?

In this episode: Rob keeps on keeping on in Keeper, storms plenty of keeps in DOOM and keeps going deeper in DRG:Survivor. Zac probably does some goal keeping in Rocket league, keeps the pressure out with Stationeers and isn't keen on keeping some mods in Vintage Story.

If you notice that you might be losing your mind does mean that you're not? Has the gaming industry noticed? Does that explain the recent gaming news?

In this episode: XBOX and EA kick the hornets nest, some picks from TGS and SONY, DOOM: The Dark Ages, Against The Storm, Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor and a return of Indiana Jones.

You'll never hear the SaladCast's take on the Nintendo Direct, nor how Rob finally finished Tears of the Kingdom. Zac's solo play in Vintage Story is lost to time as are discussions on DOOM and Octohedron. A tragic loss of art.

PSA: For a healthy lifestyle, it's important to maintain a good relationship with your chair. Careful consideration of your cheek elevator's wellbeing can prevent sudden onset backstabbing.

In this episode: Rob spends some time in the Sonic Racing Crossworlds network test, that Vintage Story patch came out for Zac to try, No Man's Sky also gets an update and we be Zelda-ing again.
