  I must have missed this topic. Shoulderguy is a product of the high-brow humor that only Family Guy can provide. I've used this username for so long now that I don't associate the name with it's original source anymore.

  Don't know if there are a good amount of people who are interested in books about the industry, but I posted this as a correction to last week's podcast and it didn't get mentioned. Thought I'd post it here in case people were interested! I just wanted to recommend "Console Wars: Sega, Nintendo and the Battle that Defined a Generation" by Blake J Harris. It's written in more of a dramatization fashion, from character perspectives rather than a historical memoir, but was based on real interviews, events, people and situations that happened during the 90s from the sides of both Sega and Nintendo. It primarily follows Tom Kalinske as he began as CEO of Sega of America and the struggles of the company battling with Nintendo being the juggernaut it grew into at the time, but pretty fairly looks at both sides and the struggles of marketing, multinational company cultural disagreements, courtroom battles and more. It's a pretty thick read, but I loved every bit of it and would recommend it to anyone hoping to learn more about the era and the people behind the decisions that were made then, as well as why certain events transpired. https://www.amazon.com/Console-Wars-Blake-J-Harris-audiobook/dp/B00K0M8TR4/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=console+wars&qid=1600551240&sr=8-1 The book is actually being made into a documentary from CBS All Access, and the trailer dropped just a few hours after I made the last comment. You can watch the trailer here: Youtube Video I still very highly recommend the book!

  @happygaming I would also recommend looking up "best (sport name here) plays". Seeing people do insane things always gets me hyped to watch or play more. That in mind, you might want to look up players too. Here are a few suggestions for fun to watch players Football: Michael Vick, Barry Sanders, OBJ Soccer: Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Cristiano Ronaldo (I love Messi but I think his talent is less overt to the layperson) Hockey: Pavel Bure, Alex Ovechkin (skills and hits), Pavel Datsyuk, Jaromir Have, Mario Lemieux, Iguchi Aito Basketball: Vince Carter (2000 dunk contest), Derrick Rose (on the bulls), Allen Iverson, Steph Curry, Kenyon Martin Baseball: Jim Edmonds, baseball is generally dry but Jomboy Media's breakdowns on YouTube are short and awesome

  @happygaming lol that's what I was going to watch instead of this one originally. The animation was great from what I saw, but I could tell from the get go that it was gonna be an insane rush job so I gave up pretty quickly. DQV is a very special game to me, though, so I was sort of setting myself up for failure there. That said, I did read up on the "controversy" around it and think it's hilarious. Pretty sure I'm not missing much.

  Did anyone else feel exhausted after the race today? All those crashes and red flags! Would of loved for Ricciardo to get his podium, but awesome for Albon to shine for once and show that he belongs there. I'm glad that we got a track as addition instead of another street cricuit, but it felt like this one was a little too narrow which I think is partly to blame for the accidents that we saw. Now we get a break next weekend, but will be fun to see what happens in Russia in 2 weeks time.

  Don't know if modern stuff inspired by the era counts, but Ashbury's Endless Skies is an excellent album with audio really reminiscent of big bands from the era. The whole album rocks, but here are a few song excerpts. Youtube Video Youtube Video Youtube Video

  @scotty I wouldn't go in expecting that. Dune isn't exactly an action movie.

  Given up on Lovecraft Country, too much crappy CGI and action oriented. Then gave Perry Mason a go and really enjoyed the first episode, way more dark and moody than what I was expecting.

  I just think that they're some of the most fun people I have seen in the video games-related journalism/entertainment world. I could listen to any of them talk about something all day, each of em' have their own qualities that make them really fun to listen/watch to. Brandon's passion radiating through his suave speech manner, Huber's boundless hype adding extra impact to everything he says, Ben's thoughtful word choices, Ian's hyper attentive insights, and so on. I also think that their reaction contents are some of the best in the biz, especially the E3 ones since it almost always feature every single on of them, and boy oh boy it's so great to see them bounce their own hype (and other emotions) with each other. My first introduction to the crew is the the PSX 2016 reactions, and after watching that I am emotionally invested to these people.
