A podcast where grown men yell at each other about video games and comics.
Each episode, hosts Andrew Henderson, Kyle Harper, Matt Cole, and Todd Thomas will debate meaningless topics about your favorite video games and comics, like which of Dr. Robotnik's inventions could have been a legitimate investment, or which of the Koopa Kids should be in line for the crown.
In this show, no one is right, but someone is definitely wrong.
Spooktacular Express continues this as we talk about classic movie monsters. In the usual Debate This! flair, we ask ourselves what if old-timey movie monsters got their hands on a video game power-up. We’re serving up a ooky spooky potluck chock full of metal vampires, a Time Lord mummy, and werewolves who just gotta go fast.

Read MoreHeroes and villains have long been given god-like powers haphazardly while mere mortals have prayed that the all-powerful beings around them don’t erase them from existence with laser eyes because they’re having a bad day. So today on Debate This! we talk about what superpowers would have the potential to be the most horrifying if they were real. Andrew plays mind games, Kyle investigates the chemical makeup of our blood, and Matt says “bone protrusions” more than anyone in the world ever has or should.
Read MoreThe Leader. The Muscle. The Charmer. The Wild Card. From the Beatles, to the Turtles, to The Fantastic Four, all of the best teams have these archetypes covered. But, does this setup apply to just any set of character? This week, we are creating our own A-Team out of NPCs from some of our favorite games. Todd flies on a rocket-powered bicep, Matt melts our brains with FNAF lore, and Andrew rides ze shoopuf.
Read MoreThe Triforce. Metal Gear. Power Pellets. So many games are built around these kinds of seemingly insignificant instruments of unstoppable power. This week’s episode is dedicated to some of our favorite video game McGuffins...that one thing that could either save or destroy the world. Matt digs up a dead horse to beat some more, while Todd ignites a pretend race war and Kyle sings karaoke with some dragons.
Read MoreBible school, Sunday picnics, spaghetti dinners...we all have our own personal experiences with Religion, but thank Whatever-God-You-Believe-In that real religions aren’t like the ones in video games. In this episode, we unpack some bonkers religions found in video games. Andrew reps a giant whale, Todd flings peasants into the sunset, and Matt rocks out with his naughty bits out.
Read MoreLet’s face it, we’ve all dreamt of being a Pokemon Master...exploring the countryside, making new friends, and murdering children’s pets along the way. We’ve also all had that moment one-hit-KO-ing Erika’s Vileplume where we think we can do better. This week, Debate This! asks the question, “What would your Pokemon Gym do differently?”
Read MoreHollywood loves a good reboot. So that’s why we’ve decided to chase our dreams of being screenwriters and reboot our favorite classic sitcoms with video game characters.

Read MoreHoo boy, the Chaotix...the B-listers of the Sonic Extended Universe. Anyone remember these guys? No? Well, we dove deep and brought you way too much lore around Vector the Crocodile, Espio the Chameleon, and Mighty the Armadillo. But, who’s the best? It really doesn’t matter.
