PSP #337: Toby: The Secret Mine, Metrico+, and Okami is Supposed to Be Good, Right?

In today's scatterbrained episode, Marc goes in with a plan and immediately throws said plan out the window as they talk about anime for way longer than they expected to, talking about the few returning shows they've finally caught up with and how some series have grown on them more and more as they've watched, well, more. After that, Marc gets to what they actually wanted to talk about, reviewing the indie games, Toby: The Secret Mine and Metrico+, while also talking about how they have finally decided to play Okami and don't really like it, nope, not at all. And then, in the end, they talk about a few big movies from 2016, including La La Land, Moonlight, Arrival, and Manchester by the Sea. Cheers and enjoy the show.

Anyway, if you want to hear what Marc has to say about another handful (or two) of anime--including a series about a girl who just wants to show you her belly 'cause isn't it so cute and going to sell all the merch and...ugh...why--well, today's episode is just for you! Cheers and enjoy the show.

PSP #335: The Great Passage is the Best Anime of 2016 I Didn't Watch in 2016

Today's show was supposed to be part 2 of the big fat juicy, scrumdiddlyumptious winter 2017 anime preview, but then Marc started watching The Great Passage and proceeded to finish it on the same day, today, because it's kind of, well, great. Anyway, if you want to hear all about an amazing anime centered around putting a new dictionary together (and the annoyances that kept Marc from watching it when it aired during the fall 2016 season), this episode has your name written all over it. Cheers and enjoy the show.

PSP #333: Rise & Shine for Nintendo Switch News

Marc starts off today's episode talking about technical difficulties, hopefully resolved technical difficulties, before diving deep into the Nintendo Switch news that came out and lit the internet on fire last night. After that, Marc talks about Rise & Shine, a brand new indie game from Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team (Super Mega Team for short) that's very pretty and, well, it's very pretty. Cheers and enjoy the show!

PSP #332: Anime Shorts and Dissing Dishonored Too

Today's episode is all about how Marc doesn't like the first Dishonored game (DLC included) because they can see so much potential in it, the potential to be something great, something special--something they hope to see achieved when they get around to playing the sequel, hopefully sooner than later. And if that's not enough, they also talk about a few anime shorts from last season, including one about butts and boobs and one about books and...books. Cheers and enjoy the show!

PSP #331: Anime, My Dad, and the Best of the Rest of 2016

Today's episode is the first (but not the last) episode of 2017 and it's all about...2016...well, not all of it, but most of it. Besides talking about their favorite TV show, movie, and graphic novel of 2016, Marc also talks about what it was like introducing anime to their father (and what they plan to do next). Anyway, I hope y'all had a great (and safe) New Year's Eve and hope your 2017 has been absolutely delightful so far. Cheers and enjoy the show!

PSP #330: The Best (and Worst) Games of 2016!...According to Me, not Jim

Today's episode is the FINAL EPISODE...of 2016, and it's all about Marc's favorite (and not-so-favorite) games of the year, as well as a few indies they finally got around to playing: Inside and Firewatch, both of which are quite good; though, if you want to play Firewatch and own multiple platforms, avoid the Xbox One version for the time being; it's not unplayable, but it's a wee bit choppy and rough around the edges. Anyway, here's to 2016, a year of many highs and lows; hopefully, 2017 will see a steady downpour of highs and a permanent drought of lows--one can only hope, eh. Cheers and enjoy the show (and the rest of the year)!

PSP #329: The Best (and Worst) Anime of 2016!

Today's episode is all about the best (and worst) anime of 2016, at least as far as Marc is concerned. Expect some sweetness, lightning, and a whole lot of ice 'cause it's oh so nice, nice enough to last you 91 days while you're flying around with your friendly neighborhood witch on your way to enjoy a bit of rakugo, where, during the show, you run into this calligrapher you met a few years ago who, not so unexpectedly, you ended up really liking, but now, quite unexpectedly, couldn't help but let you down...confused? Well, listen to the show and it'll all (still not) make sense. Cheers and enjoy the show!

PSP #328: A Random Update and a Handful of Nonsense

Today's episode is short and full of so much nonsense that it'll give you cavities if you find nonsense to be sweet... Dude, you got a tattoo. Sweet! What's mine say? Dude. What about mine? Sweet! What's mine say? Duuuude... Hurray for terrible references, eh. Anyway, this episode exists only to update y'all about a few things that happened this past week--like the unexpected and untimely death of my main PC--and to give y'all an idea of what to expect in the next few weeks--best and worst games/anime of the year. Yep. Cheers and enjoy the show!
