“Hey You Pikachu” is rated E for Everyone

security guards kicked us out of a parking lot last night. they said we weren’t allowed to film there with a “professional” camera, only a phone we hitched two phones together and kept going. they came back 15 mins later. they said this was still too “professional-looking” behold the professional:

New video up AND it's the first video in a new series I am doing on gaming and parenting. If you're a parent, ever consider becoming a parent, or just curious about we do it and find time for games; it's for you. Being a dad changed games for me forever. here's how. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOLT...

Every time a Zelda game comes out, there is an unavoidable conversation that pops up about its timeline. Not only do I find these debates boring, I think they ultimately pull us away from what this series excels at. Embrace the "Legend" of Zelda. It's better that way. nebula.tv/videos/kingk...

“A Rosie Christmas Vol.3” would fix the world I am not joking

nobody asked, but my goty is Dragon Bobby: The Story of a Life

crazy for EP to dedicate a whole segment of their show to my dad’s jeep circa 2001

Hey, thanks so much to @lambhoot.bsky.social for featuring me on his list of the best video essays of 2025 for Sight and Sound. Wild to be included among such great work. It really means a lot in this case because if I was voting my list would basically all be LambHoot videos

NEW VIDEO! The Shield is one of the greatest shows ever made... but did you know that it has a PS2 game? That said game is considered to be one of the worst ever? Well, I played it. It's awful. It's also wildly ambitious in ways I didn't expect. Find out why in this analysis—enjoy!

19 years ago, a Best Buy clerk tipped my mom off about a shipment arriving early the next morning. That night, she lined up with ten other parents for a chance to get a Nintendo Wii 💤 she and I returned to the parking lot to talk about her experience that night and how much things have changed

after a 5 YEAR HIATUS, proud to announce that my mom and I are back in the studio working on the second (and hopefully final) episode of our podcast 🎙️🤰 (tbd tomorrow for patrons) catch up on our first episode here: open.spotify.com/show/3fUEIKN...

NEW VIDEO! To me, the best satire helps us envision a better world. Grand Theft Auto, as made by a Rockstar that treats its workers as terribly as it has done, says this is as good as it gets. Here's a video discussing why I've personally had enough of that. Enjoy! Shares appreciated!

You probably haven't heard of Garbanzo Quest by @zachisagardner.bsky.social, but it's an incredible game with a lot to say. Today we dive deep into this classic and emerge with a newfound understanding of what it means to be an independent artist in the first place. www.youtube.com/watch?v=90rk...

sorry for the recent tallarico-posting. we inherited a life-size lara croft statue and it went to my head. It’s compelling me to review games from an egyptian-themed dining room
