Episodes 8-11 of Star Trek Discovery Season 2. Lots of discussion on the plot this week and what it could mean for the future with multiple shows coming to CBS All Access.

JJ and Michael discuss Brunswick stew, Cotton Candy cake, Summer Games Done Quick and even some video games. JJ played C&C Remastered and Michael has dipped into Horizon Zero Dawn on PC.

We discuss The Mandalorian's behind the scenes documentary on The Gallery. Mando Season 2 ideas. Lots of Toy Talk about the upcoming wave of toys this September.

Chalk full of great ideas, we had a great and full week: Mac & Cheese, Chocolate Dumplings, Ring Fit, Tetris, the follies of a bad d-pad, The Switch Pro Controller, Civilization VI, Analogue Pocket, Final Fantasy XII, Blizzard, XFL, and yes, even BLASEBALL. That’s B L A S E B A L L.. Go Tigers!

Ryan and Andy talk about the state of Pokemon Go in 2020: the changes to the game to make it more player friendly, the updates to shadow Pokemon, the addition of Team Go Rocket, and Go Fest 2020 - what will the game look like next year?

This past week has been jam-packed with news: Analogue Pocket, the Witcher, Microsoft’s huge video, Eiyuden’s Kickstarter, and of course Halo: Infinite. JJ reflects on his Halo experience so far, which is now extensive. Out impressions of Comic Con@Home. Michael solves an engineering conundrum. And, we are all now questing through Final Fantasy XII the Zodiac Age and you should join us.

It's National Hot Dog Day, and boooooyyy do we have a food crime. Also: Halo 2 and Halo 3 chat about the Master Chief Collection, Andy leads the charge into Final Fantasy 12, Comic Con @ Home, and the "disappointing" Nintendo Direct (and the art of getting yourself too excited).

We delve into episodes 6-8 of Season 2, Star Trek: Discovery. And, what a gamut they run…

It’s time to be too hot, bitten to death by mosquitoes, and get some food cooked outside on that BBQ… Or is it a grill? Or a grate? After too much time on definitions, we also talk about: Halo 2, Trackmania, Gundams in China, and the Witcher.

There’s more than one fraud in this pod - actual fraud and food crimes combine for a ….spicy… opening this week. Lots of Baba is You. And, should a game with micro-transactions cost $70?
