On the eve of its release we chat about the long, long path that has led to the excessively hyped, almost deified, Silksong, taking a look at the lofty height it has managed to seat itself in gaming culture. And why not, we reflect on its predecessor too, the indie darling Hollow Knight.

Episode 102: Live from Gamescom...kinda
On this episode three of us gather for a loose discussion on video games in general. Our topics include a post mortem on 2025 game-of-the-year-contender Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, to some unabashed gushing about Cyberpunk 2077. However, the whole thing is tied together by our new correspondent, Jonathan Morrissey, who vaguely watches the live show gaming announcements from Gamescom as we record, in a frighteningly radical take on live broadcast journalism.

Episode 101: Our Top 10 Games (Part 1)
On this episode three of us gather to chronicle our top 10 games of all time. But since that's quite the task, we each only get around to discussing our number 10 and 9 spots, so this will be an ongoing endeavour!
In filling out the bottom two spots of our lists, we reveal the beginnings of the top tier of our gaming predilections, which range from our love of blistering difficulty, making spreadsheets, and living in the Japanese countryside.

Character Theme Music
This musically-inclined episode takes a look at some examples throughout gaming history of a melody or musical motif being paired up with a character, and how the music can be used to tell us everything we need to know about the character, as well as reinforce or enhance the storytelling overall.
Welcome to Hey! Look! Listen! Please join Kev O’ Carroll, Jonathan Morrissey, Owen O'Riordan and Liam Sheahan for a lovely quaint Irish take on video games! Tune in every second Wednesday for a new episode!
