    A Spartan Takes on a Pirate!

    This week’s mini episode features co-host ShadoSpartan’s take on the rise and fall of one of his former favorite online personalities, PirateSoftware. So why devote an entire mini episode to the “Roach”?

    Roaches can survive anything. They adapt, they outlast, they get their dad at Blizzard to land them a job, lay off their moderators, side with billion-dollar corporations at every turn, never hold themselves accountable when they’re obviously wrong, and ban ShadoSpartan from chat just for saying hello.

    Mini episode theme by ShadoSpartan, whose album is available at:

    This week, co-host Jon Powell throws out a deceptively simple question: “Who is your ultimate ‘Hey, it’s that guy!’ actor?” What follows isn’t chaos (okay, not just chaos)—it’s a full-on celebration of the unforgettable faces you definitely recognize, even if you don’t know their names.

    The Time Pals and the Character Actor Appreciation Hour dig into just how many times Noel Gugliemi has played a “Hector,” which Spaceballs actor believed he had psychic powers, how talented the voice actor behind “Chris Redfield punches boulders” really is, why DJ Qualls is supremely underrated, and so much more.

    It’s MAR10 Day and Time Pals chose chaos!

    This week, co-hosts Jon Powell and Mike Underscore promise zero level breakdowns, not a single discussion about gameplay mechanics, and absolutely no tier lists.

    Instead, we’re celebrating everything but the games — from Super Mario Cheez-Whiz cans and the official Nintendo console sewing kit to Luigi’s rampage at the Super Mario Ice Capades and the legend of the Super Hornio Brothers adult movies. We even found a rare example of when “The Simpsons Didn’t Do It” first!

    It’s Off-Console Chaos, and it’s-a not what you expect.

    Time Pals co-host Jon Powell spun the roulette wheel and chose chaos.

    This week, the Time Pals present “Jon’s Genre Smash: Bad Games from Good Developers.”

    For every legendary studio with wall-to-wall hits… there’s that one game. The one that makes you stare at the screen and whisper, “How?”

    From a roulette wheel with 30 possible game developers, the Time Pals gambled their sanity on absolute disasters. We’re talking buggy launches, broken mechanics, rage-inducing design, and the kind of choices that make you question everything.

    We’re looking at the worst games from studios that should have known better — because sometimes even the GOATs drop a steaming pile.

    The episode is available everywhere you get your podcasts.

    Ever wonder how a $400 million game can flop harder than a broken joystick? This week, Underscore, Jon Powell, and ShadoSpartan dive headfirst into the most infamous, unhinged, and spectacularly bad video game marketing campaigns of all time.

    From Romero’s legendary Daikatana trash talk to Mercenaries gas riots, Dante’s Inferno’s deadly sins, and Acclaim’s completely feral “Extreme Era,” your Time Pals revisit a greatest-hits collection of corporate overconfidence—including failed hype machines and just how much money can be set on fire by a major company in a handful of years (BOOMSHAKALA!).

    This week, co-host Nickell attempts to get the Time Pals into the holiday spirit—launching them on a nostalgic, chaotic, music-filled sleigh ride.

    From quitting a job for Cake, discovering their inner power-punk with Green Day, feeling like they’re fearlessly marching into certain doom with Sabaton, getting blasted by the holiday-magic lasers of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and reminding everyone that Limp Bizkit’s “Nookie” is actually a poetic breakup song—this episode dives into the albums and bands that shaped the Pals, inspired them, and still hit just as hard today. 💿🔥

Why Dawson’s a bully from the Creek and shouldn’t have been the main character! Scrappy-Doo is the worst. This is a statement.Why is Worf such a crap security guard on Star Trek? And would Family Matters be remembered as fondly as Fresh Prince or Family Ties if Urkel never showed up? Was Piper from Orange is the New Black one of the most unnecessary characters on television?

    And so much more. . .

    This Tuesday, the Time Pals Podcast presents Hobby Hype!, featuring special guest Norell (aka The Hobby Box Hunter)! 🎙️

    Your Pals dive into our shared love of geek collectibles, his creative crossover shirts mixing sports cards with Bay Area hip-hop artists, and the stories behind our favorite hunts.

    We also figure out the most valuable thing you’d find in our childhood bedrooms, reveal our holy grail collectibles, stories of the weirdest things people have sold, and laugh about the trends we were happy to see die in a dumpster fire. 🔥

    This week, ShadoSpartan wants you to know that not every hard game is hard for the right reasons—some were tough just because of clunky design or straight-up bad programming, not because they were really testing our skill. But what about the games that do get clever with challenging the player? When does harder actually mean better? Is Easy Mode a valid way to go through life?

    Join the Time Pals as they dive deep into the art of difficulty in gaming:

    👉 Why bullet sponge enemies are gaming’s laziest trick
    👉 Did a harder difficulty ever force you to change your style?
    👉 Which impossible games finally got conquered decades later?

    And find out why ShadoSpartan Gets Hard for Hard Games

    This week the Time Pal return from their summer break and are immediately captured by ADHD addled co-host Nickell who turned the Time Pals studio into his own twisted game show. It’s Time Pal vs Time Pal as they must answer questions such as:

    🤔 Would you get a facial tattoo of his face to save his life?
    🐴 Would you kill a pony to erase an embarrassing moment?
    💨 Would you rather control farts… or only have telekinesis when someone else lets one rip?

    Tune in for the madness — and maybe rethink who you’d want on your team when asked “Would you rather lose your sight or your hearing, and if you knew a month in advance, how would you prepare?” We guarantee you the answer isn’t what you’d think.

    This week, the Time Pals celebrate our first year as a geek dad team—just in time for our month-long summer break (and, regrettably, to give Underscore a reprieve from producing our unique brand of chaos).
    From questions born of an ADHD mind, to AI-generated improv adventure stories, cruelly forgotten movie and video game gems, and an array of awesome guest hosts, the Time Pals look back on their favorite moments (and arguments!)—and ponder just how much nerdier we can get for the rest of the year.

The fight to correct past Academy mistakes continues! Sould Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby be acknowledged for its comedic impact or is Jon Powell so woefully wrong? Where the eff is The Last King of Scotland or The Dark Knight? And how the heck did Nickell end up with twenty nominees?

    Time Pals begin their peer-reviewed and meticulously researched version of “Marry, Eff, Kill” for the Best Picture Winners and nominees of 2001 through 2005.

    Join co-hosts Mike Underscore, ShadoSpartan, Jon Powell, and Nickell as they venture through a special two-part episode through the Academy’s most dubious decisions, fixes film history’s wrongs, and hands the gold statues to the movies that truly deserved them.


    Joining the Time Pals is special guest and close friend of Nickell, “Hollywood Fringe Legend” Veronica Matthews. Matthews credits include writing, directing, and performing in multiple stage and theater shows, and her work in the transgender community has been highly praised and brings a much-needed extra voice to keep Jon Powell in line.
