Episode 19: Benny Shortarms’ 30-Year Fixed Mortgage

We’ve got a pitch for you: We follow a pair of couples around with cameras while they shop around for their dream home. We will present them with a series of different types of homes in different neighborhoods around their desired location and people can experience the kinds of things that go through their minds as they make the decision. Oh, that’s already a thing? Well, what if we put these houses in nightmare eldritch hellscapes? Cool.

Episode 17: David Schwimmer’s Furry Paradise

Gorons, Zora, Koroks, little kids with runny noses...if only The Legend of Zelda games could just be Link, Zelda, and Ganon. We’ve seen plenty of goofy side characters over the years, but there are a few that just stand out as especially awful. Between a codependent fish princess to a self-proclaimed bug monarch to a straight-up racist uncle, we highlight the worst of the one-dimensional characters littered across Hyrule.

SIDEBAR 3: Video Game Creepypastas (Pt. 1)

The idea of creepypastas was a weird mid-00s Internet phenomenon. A product of the message board era, creepypastas are ghost stories posted across a series of forum posts. Naturally, there are a ton of these out there based on video games, so we’re going to share some of our favorites.

The Debate This! boys are writing our own kickass treatments for Venom by pairing the Symbiote with a classic Nintendo character.

Episode 14: I'm Sexy When the Bones Go Away

Heroes 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.
