Pokémon! Ever heard of those?! United under a common theme, our brave hosts both venture into strange new lands this week; while David toils in the mines of touchscreen-flavoured mediocrity, Sam takes a flight of fancy through the real-world legends that inspired the beasts. Includes a whole-ass bumper quiz segment!! Goodness!
“The name’s Games. James Games…” Your mission, should you choose to accept it – infiltrate the European Games Manufacturing Complex and retrieve valuable secrets from a family shrouded in secrecy. Agents Sam and David will be your local guides, but take great care. Beyond this point, few have returned…
A capsule containing such power… Gamer Era continues into its sophomore offering as David extols the virtues of “Shrek Treasure Hunt” for the PlayStation (and its deeply troubled developer) and Sam continues the handheld love with an ode to Panic’s Playdate. All this as decade-old social media drama and the looming presence of a revered Nintendo fantasy series threaten to derail the very structure of the pod itself. Will our brave heroes resist the temptation of barely-related tangents, and deliver us to coherence?! Not if they have anything to say about it.
A podcast you can hold in your hands! Join Sam and David in this inaugural edition of Gamer Era as they invoke handheld gaming guilty pleasures, puzzling over the Evercade’s insanely niche appeal and a carefully curated selection of licensed paff for the Game Boy Advance. All this and more wrapped in unexpectedly violent public domain newspaper cartoons, truly toe-curling childhood anecdotes and nonsensical British pop culture deep cuts. Attention Gamers – your Era has arrived.
We’re back – and this time, we have a guest! Our good friend Alexander helps us navigate two important topics this week: lore, and movies. Join us as we each talk about something from the year 2011 that isn’t exactly Paul-related that we found to be interesting, or fascinating, or one of the above – whether it’s the abysmal Nintendo 3DS launch window, the St. Louis Cardinals’ run to the World Series, or hit television show Glee – before switching to a very special 2011 movie draft. We’ll tweet out a list of the selected movies after this ep is a couple of days old, but what you can tweet right now is a link to this episode – so your old high school lab partner whose face you no longer remember due to the unrelenting march of time can discover the podcast and say “woo-hoo!” like I am right now. Woo-hoo!
Vincent (@scullygirl96) joined us to examine the numerology of S09E13 “Improbable”. We meet the lovely Reyes as she solves a serial killer case using numerology and owning those psychologist bozos at the FBI. We talk Reyes as new Mulder, Burt Reynolds as God, and Scully as perpetually annoyed by 9 years of this.

Since the dawn of time, humanity has tried to establish just what it is about gaming that draws us in, shapes us, drives us to greater things. Whether it be the simple pleasure of Mario, the complex twists and turns of Master Chief, the beauty of Chuckie Egg, we have all been defined by what we play, in a way, wouldn’t you say? No? OK, well, look you could’ve just — this is ad copy, you could’ve just agreed with me and moved on, it’s not like–oh, oh I see how it is, I get it. You know what else I get? The fact we all have GAMER ERAs. Yeah! So join Sam and David as they delve into the games, consoles, and phenomena that have defined their lives and explore just what makes their Gaming Eras tick. Oh, now you’re back. Got you eating right out of my hand, don’t I? Good! Gamer Era premieres February 7th, available wherever you get your podcasts.
