In this Episode:

It’s 2 Wrath 2 Rebecca this week, as we cover the second part of the duel against our least-favorite youngster. Yes, more hated than Mokuba! Let’s all spend our afternoon teaching this hopeless child the meaning of the heart of the cards, and go out of our way to reward the absolute zero amount of effort they put in to not being terrible.

Spoiler warning: We talk about spoilers for the Fast & Furious franchise, and Star Wars: The Last Jedi, for way too long in the intro. Skip to like 7 minutes in if you want to avoid that.

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Get out and enjoy the sunshine!

Tyler: Make a protest sign!

In this Episode:

Just as Yugi & Co. get home from Duelist Kingdom, they find themselves launched into yet another duel! This duel is unlike any duel they’ve encountered before, because this time, the stakes are…

Absolutely nil.

Join us as we discuss our least-favorite brothers, the irresponsibility of a small child’s parents or guardians, and the beginning of the end of Season One.

It’s the end of an era! Well, at least the end of a five-part episode. Join us as we celebrate the end of a movie-length duel with arguably the most exciting— and strangely disgusting— episode of Yu-Gi-Oh yet. Jimmy loved it, Tyler hated it, and Bakura stole the whole damn thing. This is a whole new game!

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Listen to Beats Antique!

Tyler: Watch Jeopardy!

Lauren: Watch Countdown!

C/W: This episode talks about death and mortality quite a bit. If that’s something that you’re uncomfortable with, you may want to cut out when we start discussing the episode.

THIS WEEK! We’re nearly there. 80% of the way through this five-part duel, and Pegasus has rewarded us with some fierce lewks. Join us for this ultra-chill hang sesh where Tyler loses his voice, and Jimmy feeds a cat. Oh, and we talk about Yu-Gi-Oh.

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Read Saga

Tyler: Make up new insults, you brambling knop-wagons!

Back in the Shadow again! Welcome to part three of five in our Yugi v. Pegasus showdown, in which we celebrate the recognition of magic, obscure strategies both good and evil, the return of the Reaper, and the metaphysical implications of the phrase “banish you from the corridors of my mind.”

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Buy some flannel-lined jeans!

Tyler: Watch this trilogy of SNL Totino’s commercials!

Honorable Mentions: Pegasus Singing and Yugi in Jump Force!

For those curious— yes! The tapping that you hear at the start of the episode is Pepper. It was too cute to edit out.

It’s a duel-heavy episode, and you know what that means! That means that we spend too much of the intro talking about floppy disks and Disney Channel originals, before diving into a magical world where everyone is in denial about magic. It’s not just a river in (ancient) Egypt!

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Find your very favorite YouTube video, and send it to someone who’s never seen it before!

Tyler: Play a game on hard mode!

Honorable Mention: Learn about Speed Duels with Pegasus!

Thanks to Thomas for providing some trivia this week! Maybe one day we’ll finally get to the bottom of Yugi’s pants mystery.

Finally, when it seemed like we were nearing the end at last, they go and turn this duel into a five-parter. Join us as we discuss the first of many episodes in which a grown man with magical powers threatens to kill a literal child in order to obtain a tacky puzzle box… just as soon as they play this card game.

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Do a “Marie Kondo” to just, like, one drawer.

Tyler: Watch Samm Henshaw’s video for “Church”.

We’re getting into the final stretch of this season! Will we make it? Will you? Will Yugi? Tune in now to find out!

Y’all… sometimes, when you want an episode to be good… sometimes it just isn’t. Join us, won’t you, for a deep-dive into the episode that broke Tyler.

This week’s recommendations:

Jimmy: Build a D&D fantasy world!

Tyler: Find your guilty pleasure TV program

Later, Lauren joins us for a brief interlude into the minds of Joey & Yugi, and we discuss which of the Yu-Gi-Oh characters would podcast.
