Marooners’ Talk: Episode 026 – “Spidey’s Turning 50”
In keeping with Ahmed’s run of Spidey Month pieces, Episode 026 of Marooners’ Talk, titled, “Spidey’s Turning 50,” focuses primarily on Spider-Man, with the occasional tangental comic character stealing focus for a few moments. We ran a little long, as we will often do when we get into our critical nerd modes, but managed to come to a close about ten minutes before we...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 025 – “The One Where We Complain About Shit”
As I mentioned in last week’s episode posting, our Episode 024 recording of Marooners’ Talk ended up running over two hours long. At a certain point, I decided to just call the second half of last week’s conversation Episode 025, titled, “The One Where We Complain About Shit.” Sitting here, a little over a week later, I can’t quite recall what we were complainin...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 024 – “Everyone Dies”
Episode 024 of Marooners’ Talk, titled, “Everyone Dies,” ran extremely long. Instead of pushing out an episode clocking in at well over two hours, we spontaneously decided to simply title the second half of our conversation as Episode 025, which will be available for you next week. Episode 024 was originally intended to focus solely on the first book of George R.R. Martin’s...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 021 – “IDDQD”
I know that most of you will see “IDDQD” as the title for Episode 021 of Marooners’ Talk and think, “Hey, this must be a great episode completely centered around DOOM and other games of its time and genre!” Yes, we do spend a few minutes on DOOM and the infinitely superior, yet unfortunately less successful Apogee title, Rise of the Triad. Seriously, Rise of the Triad...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 020 – “The Not Mass Effect Episode”
Marooners’ Rock has reached Episode 020, titled, “The Not Mass Effect Episode.” Despite its name, there is actually a great deal of Mass Effect discussion that takes place in this episode. That being said, there are also a great deal of spoilers for those who have not played Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, or Mass Effect 3. No content is held back, so if you haven’t had the cha...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 019 – “Stop Playing Tekken and Make Me A Sandwich”
As soon as we came up with the podcast title for this week’s episode, I had a sudden urge for a sandwich. I could have asked my wife to make one for me, but I am particularly averse to getting slapped in the back of the head. “Stop Playing Tekken and Make Me A Sandwich” marks Episode 019 of Marooners’ Talk. We’re a day late because SOMEONE had to have a birthday yeste...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 018 – “Handhelds are dead, long live handhelds!”
You know, it’s been a pretty slow week. Nothing new has really happened, no big events or releases…not much to talk about, really. That brings us to Episode 18 of Marooners’ Talk. “Handhelds are dead, long live handhelds!”, as the title may suggest, is an hour long discussion of holding hands, the social stigma attached to holding hands, and our sincere and erstwhile ...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 017 – “Scandal and Success on the Internet (The Tribute)”
This one’s a couple of days late, but I blame technology, the harsh, cruel mistress that deals us all a slap on the face at one point or another. Due to unavoidable circumstances, we were unable to record on Sunday for a Monday release. We did record Monday evening, but technology (the aforementioned harsh, cruel mistress) decided to lose our recording file. Today, we attempted to recreate o...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 016 – “Avengers vs. X-Men and Other Comics Shit”
We take a break this week from our normally scheduled video game discussion to focus on another topic near and dear to our hearts: comic books. Continuing our weekly production streak (three in a row makes it an official streak), episode 16 of Marooners’ Talk, titled “Avengers vs. X-Men and Other Comics Shit,” was originally intended to focus solely on the upcoming Marvel Comics ...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 015 – “Final Fantasy Sequels Are Just Weird”
I spent a good chunk of Friday evening and Saturday playing NeverDead. Sunday morning, I started working up plans with the missus to go play some mini-golf, because California is giving us t-shirt weather in February (suck it, places that have winter). Suddenly, I remember. “OH SHIT! PODCAST!” An email goes out to Adam, and we are shortly ready and prepared to knock out episode 15 of M...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 014 – “Something About Used Games and Online Passes”
So another week, another episode! Looks like we’re making good on the weekly return so far. Today’s episode of Marooners’ Talk, titled “Something About Used Games and Online Passes,” spends a considerable amount of time talking about the backwards compatibility choices of the Xbox 360 in regard to one title in particular: Barbie Horse Adventures. Er…sorry, that ...[Read More]
Marooners’ Talk: Episode 013 – “The One Where We Talk About Some Games…And Shit.”
I know I probably said this in the last episode (This is Episode 12), as well, but this time I mean it: Marooners’ Talk is returning to a weekly format! WOOO! FANFARE AND APPLAUSE! Today’s episode of Marooners’ Talk, titled “The One Where We Talk About Some Games…And Shit” (so titled because I forgot to think of a title prior to recording) marks episode 13 of ou...[Read More]
