November 24, 2023Beyond The Wind Door - Marvel’s Spiderman 2, Part 1
Well, here's another first. Dr. Skeels-Jungius and I are covering a videogame! But it's a video game we feel strongly about, both in the original experience, as part of a series of games, but also as lovers of Spider-Man and his extended mythology. (Because the name is confusing, we also refer to this game officially as Spider-Men: Proving Grounds)
This is a spoiler free episode, and today we discuss:
Our own pasts with Spider-Man media
Our experience and love of the first two Insomniac games
Our feelings on gameplay, traversal, and certain side activities
Spidey-Wardrobe
And all over spoiler free conclusions!
TL;DL We liked the game a lot. But the Mephisto is in the details! Come join us.

November 19, 2023 New’s of the Century: Castle of the Moon, Part 2
Part 2 of our initial conversations on the hot new thing, Castle of the Moon.
As before, this episode will spoil the book in question, will potentially spoil Any Other Part of New Century because we get into a bunch of the implications for how this book reveals previously unknown context about previously released books. Part and parcel of being a prequel!
On top of that, this will get into spoilers for the movie Memento. Yes, revealing that is a bit of a spoiler in and of itself, can't be helped. I still don't think it would prepare you for how it comes into play, and Memento is a 23 year old movie, but still! We cant talk about how mind blowing this book is without the proper context! (Timestamp is 34:20 to 38:30)
Get ready for sex, grief, bargaining, and killer music.

November 13, 2023 New’s of the Century: Castle of the Moon, Part 1
What's the buzz, tell me what's happening... hey neighbor, have you heard the good New's?
That's right, a new book is here, and a new round of hot takes. This is only Part 1 of Toby and Greg dishing on the new book Castle of the Moon.
Big ol spoiler warning: if you have not read All the books up till this point, there may be spoilers for those books. Obviously, we get into full details on Castle, but because by Word of God this is a trilogy with Nightfall of the Wendigo, elements of this book may get referenced in relation to Nightfall. THIS WARN YOU.
And with that... here we go.
