100 Games and a Funeral
Podboys
Two middle aged boys (Steve and Thad) play 100 retro games and also contemplate death.
37 - Banjo-Kazooie
I was trying to think about movies that have a banjo, and I could only think of Deliverance. Now... I can't in good conscious make a reference to squealing like a pig in this here description of a fun and enjoyable game for the whole family. That said... IT'S BANJO KAZOOIE! It's Kazooin' time and you're along for the ride. We got jumping, we got jump slams, we got a bird, we got collectabes.  We really discuss the heck out this thing. I think it's one of our longest episodes to date. Welp, have a good time, and hit us up next week if we don't annoy you too much. Thanks listeners.

36 - X-COM: UFO Defense
I want to believe. Heck, I bet you wanted to believe as well. You probably wanted to believe that this show wasn't coming back. Welp..TOO BAD...we're here and we're delving deep into the world of the spooky and unknown.That's right listener it's time to ask the big question. Are we alone in the universe? Why have the Chipotle portions gotten smaller and smaller? Will Lorelia and Luke end up together? We're piloting our saucer right at you with a hot and fresh discussion about  UFO: Enemy Unknown, X-COM: UFO DEFENSE, or X-COM: ENEMY UNKNOWN. They're all the same game, so you get to decide which name you prefer. Same hot takes, same barely playing the game, same rambling discussions, same being bad at games... but now we're also remote so there's a lot of that beautiful awkward interuption action!There's also a few internet hiccups with the audio. We're learning and we're gonna get better we swear. Glad to be back, hope you enjoy. See ya next week.

Season 1 Finale
Welp, all good things must come to an end. Which is why we're NOT ending the podcast. Instead we're just going on a little break prior to season 2 kicking off. We have months and months of painful contract negotiations to deal with. I know we refuse to even step into the booth for less than 2 million an episode, so please be on standby while our lawyers and agents fight for the best possible deal. In this episode the audio is still terrible. Sorry about that. We do a little recap of everything that we've played so far and send you out with a cliffhanger (will they ever record again?) for next season. Have a merry Christmas, happy new years, and give your loved ones a kiss from us. Seriously, you have to kiss them and tell them that's a kiss from the podboys. A really  really long kiss. See ya in 2024. Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos

35 - Rainbow Islands: The Story of Bubble Bobble 2
How's it going listener. You still here? Incredible! You're really in for it this week. We have a fun little episode about a fun little game. You hear our opinions of the game shift towards positiveish as we go. So, we've got good news, and bad news. Gonna go good news first just because. Good news:This little gem is about eating snacks,  taking shoes, and killing sentient tanks with rainbows. Ya know...everyone's secret fantasies. Bad news: The interface is broken and we couldn't use two mics. You're gonna get a super noisy difficult to hear podcast. Hopefully some compression and noise gating will fix it. Sorry if it doesn't dear listener. Please have a great week and a happy set of holidays.  Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos

34 - Sega Rally Championship (reupload)
*Vrooom* Podboys coming back at ya with a re-upload of an episode. I think we're under attack. The evil anti gamer forces are coming out swinging at us, but we won't be dissuaded. You're going to get the entire episode even if it kill us. This week you're getting Sega Rally Championship. It's short, it's sweet, and it's gone. Please enjoy beautiful gamers. Have a good week.  Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos

33 - Mega Man 2
In the year 202X, a pair of podcasters named Podboys were created. Modern triple A video games created the Podboys to defeat old games that people like but actually aren't very good.  However, after being completely defeated by awful hot takes, old video games created eight of their own podcasts to counter the Podboys. That didn't make any sense but I ain't working on it any more. Enjoy Mega Man 2 and have a great week!  Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos

32 - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
PSST! Hey, listener! Come ere'! Ya ever here the legend of Zelda? You haven't? Welp too bad because I don't know what it is either. I think she gives some kid a groundhog day instrument and that's a legendary thing I guess...PODBOYS coming at you with a hot, fresh, fun, and  noisy episode. Sorry about that last part. I think we've got another bad cable in the mix somehow. Imagine Zelda gave the podboys a cable that doesn't break after 10 episodes.  That would be so legendary.  Hopefully the compressor catches most of the hiss. Have a good week. There's a nice weekend of games not too far ahead.  Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos

31 - Secret of Mana
Well howdy there part....oh wait wrong game. We played Secret of Mana this week. The secret is a sword or something I think...don't quote me on that. I don't have much for this one.  It's another JRPG and you can make a solid assumption on our takes about it. We talk about sports for way too long in the intro. We're sorry.  Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos

If you do enjoy it we're super grateful. Don't enjoy? That's OK as well. We're just killing time. That's what we're all doing. Killing time. Have a good weekend. Cya in the next one.  Steve & Thad (@100gamesandafuneral) • Instagram photos and videos
