A special episode streamed live from Rage Expo onto (checks notes) TikTok.
Young people found that interesting, so who are we to argue?
The Curator Supreme of all things retro, Noel Opperman, joined us for a special show that made sure all the gamers around us knew that without the ’80s, there would be no video games.
Paulo impresses no one with stories of how he finished Contra and Super Mario Bros. on one life, while Noel spent a disproportionate amount of time in the 80s on the roof trying to watch SABC.
Shots are fired at CDogg AGAIN — but Corey knows he has supporters in us.
Paulo and Noel talk about Alyssa Milano for a while. We’re sure it had something to do with something else… but Alyssa Milano — am I right?
Paulo wraps up the movies so bad not even he could finish them. The gang agrees on James Brolin’s eyebrows; Paulo and Dori do not agree on Withnail & I.
Obligatory Stranger Things content is included for all those precious search words, and a round of 2 ’80s Truths and a Lie proves that Dori’s 20-year-honed ability to spot when Paulo is lying wins again.
