The dorks are back, bouncing around the Card Image Gallery for the Final Fantasy Universes Beyond set! As usual for UB, we're primarily checking out how well these cards reflect their source material. That's it really, you know the drill.
There's probably one more episode of this coming, so be sure to let us know or come hang out live to let us know cards you want us to be sure we cover!

Now that the full previews have begun, the dorks dive back into card from the upcoming Universes Beyond Final Fantasy set! We're hitting the mechanics as usual, then poking around to check out the main characters of some of the games. As has become our thing with these UB sets, we're going to be taking a look at how the card mechanics reflect the source material they're based on. So strap in, grab your giant sword of choice, and let's take a look!

Originally we were going to make this episode about everything Star Wars other than the movies, but it turns out we spent WAY too much time on the video games. There are SO MANY video games. And we only covered a fraction of them! We'll dive into 2D platformers, 1st and 3rd person action, racing, grand strategy, real time strategy, Virtual reality, flight simulator, and probably more that I'm forgetting! What's your favorite Star Wars video game?

Welcome to Supply Lines, a new running feature here on TMP where the dorks will be looking at resource management in games. What games? All games, because they all have a variety of resources that the player needs to manage to be able to play! To kick it all off, we're starting with the game that we and our audience probably have the most experience with - Magic: the Gathering. We'll sprinkle in some examples from other card games as they come up of course, but MTG is the primary focus of this initial episode.
Be sure to let us know what you think! And please let us know what types of games you want to hear us cover in the future!

What exactly is a roguelike? Well it's a video game...genre? Sort of? Genres are all made up and stupid.
In this episode, the dorks will dive into what makes a roguelike a roguelike, with lots of relevant conversations about various aspects of the whole thing. And be sure to let us know your favorite roguelikes and why!
Stay tuned for the end when Mike & Chewie get all caught up in...D&D stuff? Wait what?

Oh hey, the set about dragons has a bunch of dragons in it! Weird. Guess we should probably take a look at some of them huh?

The dorks are back! First Chewie recaps Cheevos For Charity 2025, which was a glorious time that raised over $1500 for Trans Lifeline! After that we give Tarkir: DragonStorm the usual treatment. You know, looking at the mechanics and then bouncing around the gallery calling out whatever we like. Don't worry, we'll be back again to check out all the big scary dragons and stuff.

If you've ever been slept, poisoned, charmed, stunned, slowed, or...made an atheist (?) then this episode is for you! The dorks are talking about (as the title says) status effects in games. Of course we spend a lot of time on RPGs, but status effects are common in all kinds of games. We brought up several different action games and card games just to hammer this point home. Let us know what you think!

The dorks couldn't come up with something to talk about this episode, so we asked the Pooligans in our Discord community for some ideas! Mycroft wanted to know if we had anything to say about building toys, from Lego to Gunpla, so we talked about that for a while. Then Pana was curious which cartoons we thought might be good to bring back for another run, sort of like DuckTales or She-Ra or any number of other excellent examples. And we spent WAY too long just talking about old cartoons.
Don't blame us when you have to go look up old cartoon theme songs. Even though it's totally our fault.

The dorks take their first look at the long-awaited Final Fantasy Universes Beyond MTG set! We're all FF dorks to one degree or another, so we're doing like we did with the Lord of the Rings set - taking a look at how the mechanics of the card matches up to the thing it is depicting. Between the four of us we have all the games covered (for the most part) so this should be fun. Find out which commander we think is terribly done, who we think is just boring, who is horribly overrated, and which ones are absolute home runs!
And be sure to let us know what you think too!

No, you're not hallucinating and you haven't fallen into a time portal (unless you're coming from the future, in which case SAVE US!). It's Chewie, Cluze, and Squee, together again! No we're not resurrecting anything, we just wanted to get back together and try desperately to ignore the direction the world is going by talking about whatever nerdy nonsense we've been fooling with lately. We bounced around from a Japanese honorifics lesson because of Yakuza 0 to rambling about the MCU to falling into food shows to discussing all the shows we have and have not finished to the horrors of trying to find a good barber to not taking down holiday decorations...and that's not even everything!

To celebrate the fake retail holiday Valentine's Day (which was the day after we recorded this), the dorks wanted to shift gears away from the negativity of episode 715. So for this episode we're each talking about some things that we love! Not our partners or families or any of that stuff, we mean nerdy nonsense! Movies, games, shows, whatever we want!
So tell us, what are some nerdy things YOU love?

Gamers, amirite? Whether it's opponents across the table, friends next to you, or randos online, eventually they're all going to do something while you're playing that just grinds your gears. The dorks are going to get into all the things that gamers do that annoy them. Not just to vent, but also to help us all recognize that some of our quirks or tics or whatever that we don't pay attention to might just be bothering the hell out of everyone else involved. Remember Rule 2!

The dorks take a look at the main antagonists & final bosses of the first six Final Fantasy games! These range from just nothing to one of the best villains in gaming, period! We'll be going through each game in order to see how the big bad evolved (or didn't) over time. And don't worry, we'll come back to this again in the future to cover more that we didn't get to!

The dorks kick off 2025 by looking back at the stuff that happened to us over the last year. Life events, games we played, shows we recorded, that sort of thing. Apologies for anyone going into excruciating details. We're also taking a look forward at things we're hoping to do or experience in the next year. You know, it's your typical year transition introspection thing. Be sure to let us know what you're looking forward to in 2025!

The dorks round out 2024 by finishing up our Castlevania discussion! We're hitting all the remaining games, which includes the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS Metroidvanias, the PS2 3D games, the Lords of Shadow reboot, and whatever else we missed in the last show. We'll also hit up some of the places Castlevania has popped up in crossovers with other games!
Thanks so much to all of you for sticking with us this year! We hope your holiday season is filled with goodness and that next year is even better!

The dorks are doing something a little different this episode. We're taking a look at the Castlevania franchise as a whole! Castlevania is a franchise that all of us have experience with, and it's just so good! There are SO many games, a Netflix anime series, absolutely stunning music, and lots of crossovers into other games! Of course that's a lot to talk about, so this episode is mainly about the Classicvania games. Look for part 2 soon!

The dorks return! This time we're Just Chatting about all kinds of stuff! First up is our Thanksgiving holidays and food experiences. Then Brian has a question about parenting, which we tangent off of several times. We talk about what scared or bothered us when we were kids, when sex and/or violence are okay to show them, and lots of other stuff. Then Brian disappears, so Chewie talks about all the games he's been playing lately (Tunic, Vampire Survivors, Hitman, Forced Showdown). Then Mike talks about what he's been up to lately and we discuss maintaining our sanity in these trying times. How are you maintaining your sanity these days?
