  1. Didn't think I would hear poop talk on here. Pressed play and walked away. Got grossed out with Dan's toilet talk, but hands busy. Thinking it will end soon. Nope. Dan continues and now he's on my shit list.

  2. great podcast quick question/suggestion wouldn't the best way to do the bowsers fury stream would be to have a set time and the person with the most cat shines at the end would be crowned champion? this could then allow people to go past beating it if they are really quick enough.

  3. JAN! JAAAAAAAAAAN!! If you're going to play only one Ecco game, play Tides of Time. It is the best one by an astronomical margin. The only benefit to playing the original is getting context for the sequel

  4. Dan, I would like to remind you that not only is Metal Gear super anime, Kojima himself is a massive weeb. Otacon is LITERALLY named Otacon because he loves anime (something Kojima planted because he too loves anime), the opening scene of MGS2 of Snake jumping off the bridge in camo is taken from Ghost in the Shell, the elevator you ride down to get to Metal Gear in MGS1 is a reference to the elevator scene in Akira, Kojima hired the Japanese voice actor for Snake BECAUSE he loved his acting in the Ghost in the Shell anime film, and lastly Policenauts, a game Kojima directed, is LITERALLY an anime game. Come on, Dan. Just admit Kojima is a weeb and Metal Gear is also a weeb game.

  5. To Dan's credit, if it was still the 2000s, Dan is 1000% correct about Metal Gear being bigger then Persona. To Zoomers, however, I'm willing to bet more people know about Persona then Metal Gear.
