#561 - Say Nothing

This week we ask the BIG questions: Who is following us on Bluesky? What is a turnip driver? Is a disk drive a dongle?? We also discover AI's weakness, Netflix kill off their interactive shows, the Borderlands movie never happened, Ste shoots all the time in everyday life, Simon has "beef" with "the man" and what exactly is all this UKIE shenanigans, anyway?!</p><br /></p>We also talk about upcoming appearances at <a href="https://gamayo.co.uk/2024/11/08/gamayo-update-numbers-soar/">GaMaYo</a> (Thursday 21st November in Wakefield) and the Maraoke Xmas Party (Friday 13th December)!</p><br /></p>Can you fix an extractor fan?

#560 - ... pause

WARNING: This show contains a brief mention of private body parts that Ste probably still hasn't heard! Shocking! It's OK, though, coz it's related to something glow-in-the-dark that was bought in Blackpool! Oo-er!</p><br /></p><em><Waits for the request to do some more editing of the show...></em></p><br /></p>ANYWAY! SSG klaxon ahoy! This week we are joined by <a href="https://addict.media/">Paul Monaghan</a> who recently interviewed Simon as part of his amazing work collecting games <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magazine">magazine</a> journos and telling their stories whilst not sharing any gossip! From Googling how to spell his name correctly I also suspect he's from the same part of the world as I am so that makes him even more of a top chap, obviously!</p><br /></p>Meanwhile, we also have Nintendo inventing music, Charlesbot pretending he needs more practice at reading the news and Nvidia being bigger than anything! Ste and Simon also go on a world tour to hunt down dodgy/knock-off/pirated videogames for <em>you</em>, dear listener! (Does that make the holidays OLL expenses...?)</p><br /></p>If you're reading this nonsense and it's not yet Friday 8th November, we have a FREE Maraoke event at Loading in Stoke Newington. On Friday 8th November. Get your tickets <a href="https://lu.ma/xyepg2dq">HERE</a>!</p><br /></p>How much plastic tat do you own? Have you met a Disney princess? Do you know what happened at Edge??

#559 - Dramatic...

Isn't it horrible when someone leaves you out of something? Well, dear listeners, this week we discover how a veteran Edge writer has been left out of a <a href="https://on.games/">new periodical written by veteran Edge writers</a>!!! The injustice!! We also have Charlesbot evolving into something that swears and says "aaah" a lot, the "console arms race" has levelled out and it's Tetris aaaaaaall the way down. Tetris! Plus much more...</p><br /></p>Meanwhile we have another Maraoke event coming up and this time it's FREE! Friday 8th November at Loading in Stoke Newington.
