Grumpy Young Men

Today, we’re talking about phones and all the different things they do for us, and we ponder a great question: do they do things better than the objects they replace? Join us as we compare phones to notebooks, flashlights, portable gaming devices, and much more.

Also, why we hate fingertip band-aids. (Recorded March 15th, 2021.)

This week we’re getting into sports! We talk all about the vehicular soccer game Rocket League. We discuss why this game works so well as a casual multiplayer game, go over the significantly worse side modes, and wonder how long it will take to actually get good at aerials. 

Also, why we hate Samuel’s Steam. (Recorded March 8th, 2021.)

In our most tangent-filled episode yet, we discuss weather and seasons. We talk about all four seasons, discuss some of our favorite aspects of weather, and go on many tangents about teeth, lab locations, large bodies of water, and when we’ll actually put a human on Mars.

Also, why we hate cheek biting. (Recorded March 1st, 2021.)

This week we’re talking about Shadow, a Chinese martial arts film from a couple years back. We discuss the brilliant visual style of this movie, the old-school storytelling elements, and make an obvious comparison to a Wii game from 2009.

Also, a new COVID Corner. (Recorded February 22nd, 2021.)

Today we discuss all manner of topic surrounding game controllers. We get into many debates, such as Playstation versus Xbox controller, keyboard and mouse versus controller at all, and Samuel briefly forgets what ring fingers are called. 

Also, why we hate Missouri’s winter weather. (Recorded February 15th, 2021.)
