Send us a text He vanishes for the guts of a year then releases two episodes back to back? Of course, we had to mark Donkey Kong Country's 30th Birthday after all. We also had to drop the half hour limit on this one; not because the episode is packed with the complete history of the fantastic game. Because we kept wandering off topic and talking ut…

Send us a text Popping my sweary head up during Podcast Hiatus for an incredibly special occasion. Kunt and the Gang have created a fantastic movie called "Shannon Matthews: The Musical: The Movie" which is set to release on Prime Video today!! Despite what Loose Women might tell you; this jaunty little trip down one of the strangest public spectac…

Send us a text I don't know what this episode is. I was present for it, edited it, listened back to it and I'm just as confused as you probably are right now. Luke Dolsk or "Shite Opinions Dolsk" has returned and instead of talking Conker's Bad Fur Day or Caddyshack 3; he's launched into a hateful half hour that probably should have been binned rat…

Send us a text I needed an episode that required no notes, research or pretending to care about the subject matter. This week we drop down to a planet of our choosing and slaughter everything in our path . . . or die several times trying. This year's surprise hit, Helldivers II and why you should all be playing it. Joined by fellow Helldiver and Su…

Send us a text The episode that could have been all music and no chatter. This week we mostly look at Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon on the N64. Thankfully we just so happen to land on an extended episode, as this wasn't going to fit into thirty minutes. Climbing Mt Fuji, smacking aliens with a pipe and clockwork ninjas; this game has it all. Thank…

Send us a text ThatFKingGuy made a quiz for our latest episode but we ran out of time. Kind of. So it got its own special episode instead. Thanks for listening and hopefully you were mildly entertained and/or insulted. Please look up the socials to find more information on the guests and any projects they are working on. All ThatFKingGuy's Socials:…

Send us a text That FKingDreamcastGuy is back for another round of aimless chattering and off brand attempts of humour as we yearn for the good old days of conspiracy theories. Not this modern bollocks being pushed out by failing celebrities, the real stuff. Aliens, Elvis and Bigfoot's mighty fingering techniques. Thanks for listening and hopefully…

Send us a text Pokémon? Again? Hard to believe it's been over a hundred episodes since we last talked about these beloved Pocket Monsters. Did Game Freak listen to our last episode and take all of the advice on board? Did they Bollocks. James from How to Game Differently joins us this week to stick another boot to the Pokémon company in a bid to ge…

Send us a text Time to shake the cobwebs off and get back to making a podcast, I mean, what else is there to life? Average Joe returns and no, of course he's not here just to shill for his Kickstarter! This week we talk about the need for everybody to simply lighten the fuck up. You're all caught up in your own business and should really settle you…

Send us a text The end of year season is always the same, top ten movies, games, books or albums that defined your year. Nobody cares, taste is relative and with taste like you yours, you'd be better suited cleaning your anus like a dog. What doesn't get talked about enough are the biggest cunts of the year. those dreadful souls that only seem to e…

Send us a text It's Christmas and what better way to start your festive time than by sticking this podcast over your Alexa and letting all the family hear the jolly tones of one Lyle Carr? As is now WTFDYW?! tradition, Lyle is here to ring in the fine season with a something near and dear to his heart. This time, the class Christmas evening shoppin…

Send us a text This week we take a scalpel, open up the remains of Scrubs and have a good root around at what made it tick. Joining me once again is the beautiful Real Dave Jackson who adds a bit of cinnamon to Punk's vinegar when discussing this particular sitcom. Thanks for listening and hopefully you were mildly entertained and/or insulted. Plea…

Send us a text Another grown man talking about cartoons this week. How come I never get guests that want to talk poetry or classic literature? Scabzilla or Erin or Aaron, joins me this week to talk about the incredibly pleasing Berserk. The 1997 show is on Youtube if you want some festive viewing: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgGyVwzdovwbSX1C…

Send us a text Hopefully this didn't come up on a search for "Uncle" or "BBC" in your googling attempts to find this show. Philthy of the Ring Sting fame returns to talk about something other than videogames this week. A sitcom with dark humour, cracking songs and a slathering of swearing. Nick Helm's Uncle is the topic for this week's discussion. …

Send us a text Hitting several of the touchstones of this podcast, Retro, Indie, RPG with stunning pixel art and excellent soundtrack, Sea of Stars offers all of this and more. Joining me once again is the perpetual motion machine posing as a mere mammal, Stormageddon. In what must be his tenth podcast about this game in particular. Thanks for list…

Send us a text We take a look at one of the most exciting chapters in Gaming this week, The Sega Dreamcast!! Sonic broke out into 3D in a big way, the world was invited into your games and there was a little Tamagotchi in your controller. What else could you f**king want? Our guest this week, one "Andrew J. Dickinson" has the hubris to think they a…

Send us a text We take a trip down to teenage town again where everybody in every region of the globe seemed to be listening to Tenacious D. The Real Dave Jackson returns as we try to decipher why this was the case; in a poorly researched manner. Two idiots doing a podcast on two idiots making an album. It does seem oddly fitting. Thanks for listen…

Send us a text We go back in time to the early 2000s where there was greed and corruption eating away at the United Kingdom whilst the public were gleefully ignorant and were too busy trying to rid themselves of any shred of decency in some kind of manic race. How things have changed. This week we look at a dark comedy show which has flown under th…

Send us a text MickSince86 returns for a Hallowe'en or Samhain themed episode as we talk about a dirty little unit that descended from Derry. A different episode this week, but what are you going to do about it? I mean specifically you. What are YOU going to do about it, prick? I don't answer to any governing body of quality control. Thanks for lis…

Send us a text That familiar sound of a scraping barrel? It can only be the three Punks back again to mutually nerd out of over something they are far too invested in. This week it's the original Fallout title, to mark the day the Bombs fell in this diverged timeline. Thanks for listening and hopefully you were mildly entertained and/or insulted. P…

Send us a text ThatFkingGuy returns again this week to talk about how much he loves Goodpods and how reviews should be re-evaluated as their value has gone a bit askew over time. 80% should be the new 50%, it leaves little wiggle room. So we moan an have another one of those podcasts that are only interesting to people that make podcasts. How insul…

Send us a text I'll be straight with you here, we were meant to talk about Soul Reaver on this episode but kept getting distracted. We mention the series a bit, kick lumps out of Embracer for playing with our emotions. I keep trying to offend Mick, we talk about the Barras again. We need to stick this Streamer on a leash and stop him from conversat…

Send us a text To mark the launch of the Lucid Kickstarter today we have the scholar, gentleman and creative gimpanzee Eric from the Matte Black Studio. Once again we have somebody trying to hustle the listener base into throwing money at them. It's pathetic, I'm nearly phoning Ofcom on my own show. Just as well that Lucid just so happens to look l…

Send us a text We have a Trio of defects who are slaves to the beat this week: DeadbeatpunK is joined by Modern Escapism's very own rockstars of yore: Stig and Gadget!! They want to talk about this year's sleeper hit Hi-Fi Rush, a rhythm based action game developed by the bright sparks at Tango Gameworks and just appeared out of the blue on Game Pa…

Send us a text The Summer is over and it's time to get back to work, if work was shouting at people. Which it actually is, both here and on our subject this week. Yes Cousin, we talk FX/Hulu/Disney's culinary based dramatic series The Bear. HANDS!? Why nobody else but dear sweet Philthy: who has probably dreamed about sticking a knife in my arse mo…

Send us a text The fun you can have with a little toy in your hand. Game Boys are no stranger to the WTFDYW?! Show, but this episode focuses on the 32-bit wonder that was the Game Boy Advance. Joining me this week is Stormageddon who also shares a passion so intense it could warp AA batteries. Also, it is time for the host's time to retire for a wh…

Send us a text Shane makes his return this week to lampoon nearly everybody that has been on the show before. Kinda. It's an aimless episode, I don't think either of us came away knowing what he actually wanted. He doesn't like comic conventions, despite never going to one. Not too pushed on tech showcases and definitely won't be joining me in the …

Send us a text Really have to stop dragging people in last minute, CaptainJSpaulding got roped in again last minute and gets nothing but bad manners for the privilege. We return to Terry Pratchett's Discworld and explore the possibility of future Computer Games around the subject matter. Sort of. We talk an awful amount of bollocks in between it al…

Send us a text Joe returns after brings Gears of War and Shock to the table with his best topic pick yet: Snuff Box. This BBC3 comedy that was hidden away at silly hours has become the definition of a cult classic and anyone that has seen it will sing its praises. Whether you want to hear them or not. WHISKEY!! Thanks for listening and hopefully yo…

Send us a text Time makes a mockery of us all and Stig wants more of it. He wanted more time but what he got was further mockery. There are so many things to accomplish and so little time. So we ponder a new world where time breaks out of its flat circle and becomes a bit more flexible. Death to Chronos!! Find more Stig on these links for Modern Es…

Send us a text A new Episode and a new voice, Bazza brings 24 to the studio this week. A show that I had missed completely and only knew from multiple parodies and references. We talk over the first series and if you don't want that spoiled for you. You would be better off skipping this one. Get More Pure Dead Gaming on: Twitter- https://twitter.co…

Send us a text Duke Nukem has been out of action for a long time. Too long a time. Sadly Duke is remembered as more of a meme than the hero of an action packed series. Dated attitudes and quips from a bygone era. What if we could remedy that, could Duke be rebooted for a modern audience? Well NorthmanRob and his plus one are certainly going to try.…

Send us a text We go back to a simpler time this week, when we could karate kick and chop our way to the affections of the Flower Girl of our dreams. Lyle returns after failing to magic up a new Dragon Quest Monsters game and reminds of what made PaRappa the Rapper such a wonderful title. Lyle's Socials: Lyle - https://twitter.com/fishchipswhips Go…

Send us a text DeadbeatpunK is feeling a bit worn out this week after recording the bumper episode previously. Thankfully Mark "Planty" Plant is here to make sure he doesn't fall on his arse for thirty minutes. What are they talking about this week? There is too much TV and not enough free time to watch it all. First world problems? You Bet!! Frame…

Send us a text It may have taken a hundred episodes but we finally have the correct answer for WTFDYW?! We introduce David Turner(s) from TCGS to the Studio and shows up our host as the hopeless, churlish amateur that they truly are. They say money can’t buy happiness, but with enough coin you can stay out of crippling debt which may help evade dee…

Send us a text A week of mourning as we place coins over the peepers of E3, the Nerd Christmas, Geek Kwanzaa or Loserpalooza as I have taken to calling it. A Gaming convention that happened once a year and blew our socks off with reveals, news and some of the most awkward displays of human interaction you could ever make memes out of. Robschach joi…

Send us a text Sometimes I worry about being a poor advert for the lovely little Island I live on. To remedy this I am joined by the one and only Gerard Eady, a prime example of the fine specimen Ireland can truly produce. He wants to talk about Atomic Heart and why people shouldn't sleep on this title. Created by the Russian Team Mundfish, there i…

Send us a text The return of the actual host this week and thank the maker for their return as we need a steady hand to keep this week's guest in line. The subject was picked by the luck of the roll. The Venture Brothers, which is the finest show ever to sprout out of Adult Swim. Philthy's Elden Ring Stings Socials E-mail - philthyring@gmail.com Ph…

Send us a text This week I am joined by James from the How To Game Differently Channel and he wants to talk about Transformers. No, not those ones. The Animal Ones. Beast Wars. Where they battle each other for leadership, talk about honour and . . . fall in love? Thanks for listening and hopefully you were mildly entertained and/or insulted. Please…

Send us a text A controller is far more than a piece of plastic, it's a conduit between the player and their game. An instrument that can be used to create joyous situations depending on the skills of the hand it finds itself nestled into. Yes, those alien collection of buttons, sticks and bumpers are keys to a kingdom most people fear to enter and…

Send us a text Things are too long, which is a problem Ciaran finds himself dealing with constantly in the trouser department. Other things that run far too long for comfort: Movies, Albums, TV Shows and Computer Games. When will they realise that people only have a finite amount of time? This is why they demand satisfaction immediately. Is it a sh…

Send us a text The long fabled sequel to indie darling Hollow Knight is the focus of this week's Spoiler Heavy episode. We have had peeks at this title in the past, but our guest this week wants it NOW!! Christopher from The Weird Thing About That Podcast leads the charge to inspire Team Cherry into revealing a release date or just shadow-dropping …

Send us a text Ian from Cult Connections has another go on the thirty minute soapbox: people that pay for fake symbols of authority on social platforms. Blue Tick Pricks. A recent trend and desperate cash grab by everyone's favourite Blood Emerald Funded, Jelly Mould of a human. Why this practice actually devalues the platform, takes the varnish fr…

Send us a text After all that talk about classic RPG Goodness in last week's episode, NorthmanRob returns to the fold to talk about Breath of Fire another classic series that hasn't been getting the love it deserves of late. Capcom's Fantasy Epic is a series that have touched many a fan of the genre and as it's becoming more difficult to locate phy…

Send us a text It isn't uncommon for a WTFDYW?! topic to be something that is already happening. What is uncommon however is the host finds WTF he wants and the Guest is the person that created it. Average Joe is making a nostalgic, Game Boy Inspired RPG with classic turn based combat and with a heavy dusting of vulgarity and foul language. Ticks e…

Send us a text It is often stated that school days were the best days of your life, utter bollocks. Or so I thought until Mick brought the great Gorbals Vampire Hunt to my attention; a mass of schoolkids decked out with knives, crosses and dogs descended upon the Necropolis to take the fight against a seven foot tall demon. Now those school days, Y…

Send us a text I have mentioned this game in nearly every episode in some capacity and hopefully with the help of Flufflit Prince (who has been snatched out of the Pure Dead Gaming Discord) we can purge all our love and admiration for this game out in one thirty minute burst. We failed. This rogue lite or like, depending on how strongly you feel on…

Send us a text Yo Dawg, we hear you like Podcasts so we stuck a Podcast inside of your Podcast. Double Podcast!! We have Stormageddon on to talk about their love of the Audio Blog medium or "Podcast" to the uncouth. We may be a bit biased given our interests on the subject. There is a charm to just being able to pick up a microphone and being able …

Send us a text Monorants return and want to go all Cranky Kong about the internet and how it used to be great in the good auld days. before all your NFTs, Tik Toks and Patreons. Endless looping flash animation, MSN Messenger and Broadband being a novelty. Remember back before the idiots knew how to use the interwebs? Thanks for listening and hopefu…
