The Games we Love with Lord Nerdy Cephalopod

Laughter, nonsense, and absurdity abounds in episode 130 of the podcast. We were joined by Lord Nerdy Cephalopod (aka Brian) to talk about the games we’ve been playing, what he would take with him to the Thunder Plains, and the game series that we love to come back to.

Locked On with Jason Maddison

Jason Maddison (Technical Director at Lost in Cult) joined us to talk about the [lock-on] journal, his piece for volume 001 (titled I Have Lived) and how it rang true to our childhoods, and about how the technobabble used in discussing video games and consoles is utter nonsense. All this with a lot of pro-wrestling terms thrown in for good measure

Chief Andrew Is Lost in Cult

Andrew Dickinson joins us to talk about the games he’s been playing recently, the SteamDeck, and everything Lost in Cult and Dreamcast Years.

Outbreak: Endless Nightmares with Evan Wolbach

Evan Wolbach stopped by Waffling Taylors HQ to discuss his Outbreak series. This series of survival horror games take inspiration from the greats of the genre, but also look to rogue-likes for some inspiration, too.

Getting to Know MazGamingUK

MazGamingUK (aka Maz from the DreamCast Junkyard Podcast, and of YouTube and Twitch fame) stopped by the virtual Waffling Taylors HQ to chat about his YouTube channel, what he’s been playing recently, what he’d take with him to the Thunder Plains, drops a horror story (followed by Jay doing the same), and we talk about controller designs.

Tomb Raider Turns 25 - Raiding Tombs With the B

We celebrated the 25th anniversary of Tomb Raider with The B. We discussed the legacy of Lara Croft’s game series, her impact on popular culture, and our favourite titles across the many different canons of Tomb Raider.

Catching Up With The B - Part One

It had been ages since we last had a proper catch-up with The B, so we invited him back on the show to talk about what he’s been playing recently, get distracted by food, and talk about Nightdive Studio’s Shadow Man Remaster. Along the way, we discuss the Sony "timebomb" built into all PS3, PS4, and PS5 consoles, Xbox GamePass, and how this year’s E3 will be different.

2021, Huh. What Is It Good For? (Part Two)

We brought AndrewD and ZBoi into the (virtual for now) recording studio to talk about what we’re looking forward to in 2021. This is part two of the 6 host (?!) episode. We talk a huge amount about Resident Evil, Cyberpunk 2077 (and hour hopes that CDPR can pull a Hello Games), multicoloured hair (and whether Jay should dye his beard … or eyebrows?), working from home, and we play a game of "subtitle the Untitled Goose Game sequel"

2021, Huh. What Is It Good For? (Part One)

We got together with both The_B and Stoo Cambridge to discuss what they’re looking forward to in 2021, in part one of a bumper episode featuring 6 (!?) hosts. We talk about game-breaking bugs (and not just about Cyberpunk 2077), Jay drops some development theory knowledge, Stoo tells us about his new shop, and there’s a tease of a Resident Evil 2 board game stream.

Itchy, Tasty with Alex Aniel

We chatted with Alex Aniel (aka cvxfreak) about his upcoming book: "Itchy, Tasty: An Unofficial History of Resident Evil", the Resident Evil series as a whole, our favourites, some top tips for learning foreign languages, and that dooty doot song from the Dual Shock Director’s Cut
