This is a podcast that's nominally about bad games. In reality, every Monday, Gary Butterfield and Kaye Ross choose a game at random from the titles submitted by listeners, play it, and venture off on a freeform discussion that winds between the topic at hand and some dumb nonsense.

Everyone has to start somewhere. For Cliff Blezinski, starting meant making a pale imitation of Shadowgate called Palace of Deceit: The Dragon’s Plight. Playing it is a master class in what makes Shadowgate good. But you can’t be too hard on the kid ... more

Absolutely love everything about this podcast
Tried an episode and it spent just a few minutes on the episode topic and the rest of the episode talking about old reviews of OTHER games. Complete waste of time.

The content focuses on discussing ostensibly bad video games, where the hosts engage in humorous and freewheeling discussions that often transcend the gaming subject. Each episode typically features a different game chosen at random from listeners' suggestions, leading to digressions that bring in personal anecdotes, societal commentary, and playful banter. The appeal lies not just in the gaming critique but in the entertaining chemistry between the hosts and their ability to intertwine themes of nostalgia, absurdity, and cultural references, making it feel like a hangout rather than a strict review program. Listeners can expect a blend of humor, insight, and a reflection on broader themes present in gaming and society.
