What started as a discussion of our morning routines turned into a deep exploration of bidets and squatty potties. But we also find time to talk about video games like Valley and Nier: Automata. Plastic peripherals are out, and cardboard is in as Nintendo announced Nintendo Labo. AGDQ raised a ton of money for charity, and even more Final Fantasy games are headed to PC. Grab the glowsticks and the candy necklaces, it’s the Tiny Disc Podcast!

Welcome to the first episode of 2018! New year’s resolutions are dumb, and who cares with this year being so packed full of video-gamey goodness? We catch up on games we’ve been playing over the break. We laugh at CES’s ironic blackout, stroke the Switch’s ego, and applaud this year’s Golden Globe recipients. It’s a new year, so let the Tiny Disc Podcast show you the way!

To help soothe the wounds of the past nine day, we each take a few minutes alone to talk about our personal favorite games of the year. Here’s to a great 2017 and an even better 2018!

It all comes down to this: Day 9, Best Game of 2017. You know what time it is. Strap in, buckle up. Eight nominees enter, but only one can walk away with the Tiny.

It was also a great year for movies. On this episode we award Best Film of 2017.

On this highly controversial episode, we argue about the best moment of 2017. Our pain is your pleasure? Listen and find out.

We want to love these nominees, we really, truly do. Today we lament on and recognize the worst end products in gaming that carried some high expectations.

The gaming landscape is full of surprises. Some come and go, while others leave deep-seeded impacts that shape industry rhetoric long after release. Today we award gaming’s Biggest and Best Surprise of 2017.

It takes more than simply upscaling screen resolution and including DLC to constitute a great remake/remaster. Join us for a discussion on the matter and find out who our winner for 2017 will be.

So many great composers, so many fantastic soundtracks. Today we celebrate the best and crown a winner.
