    21st Century (Digital Boy)

    In this episode of Hardly Focused, Jack, Mike, and Nate pour one out for physical media. Beginning in 2028, Sony is going digital-only, and will no longer release new PlayStation games on disc. Of course, the internet is up-in-arms over the news, with pitchforks out and pirate hats on. Also discussed: Tim Heidecker hosts his first episode of InfoWars, and does a great Alex Jones impression. Noah Kahan politely asks that you do not shit yourself at one of his shows. Music news, featuring Angine de Poitrine, the Mars Volta, and Hayley Williams!

    See You in Vice City

    The marketing blitz for Grand Theft Auto VI is in full swing! Because it's 2026, it would be highly unusual if this was without controversy. Acc and Jack discuss everything related to GTA, from the franchise's history, to the unbelievable weight of expectation, to how the ever-increasing price of consoles may affect the game's launch. Also discussed in this episode of The Acc and Jack Show: Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Genesis celebrates its 35th anniversary! Delightfully awful music, and awfully delightful music.

    An example of why this podcast is called "Hardly Focused" - a discussion about Faith No More reuniting turns into reminiscing about The Great Mighty Poo from the Nintendo 64 game Conker's Bad Fur Day. Jack and Nate try their best, but staying on-topic remains a regular struggle. Hey, at least Mike Patton and the boys are back together! Also in this installment of Hardly Focused: What does one formally call a podcast with video? Jack once again injures his right hand. The America 250 concert is everything the Great American State Fair isn't. Louis CK has a new Netflix special, and it's going to do just fine. Remembering Daveigh Chase, whom everyone forgot voices Lilo in Lilo and Stitch. That insane video of the bungee jumper in Brazil who wasn't attached to anything.

Will Jack ever make a dent in his backlog? Also discussed in this episode of The Acc and Jack Show: Acc recounts a stinky experience with black cupcake frosting.

    LEGO My LEGO!

    To what lengths should one go to recover their incredibly expensive LEGO collection? Jack and Nicole dive head-first into the Bricks and Minifigs saga. While more information has come out since their discussion, there's a lot to unpack - theft, arrests, lawsuits, and a hilarious response from Patreon's CEO. Also, Jack and Nicole discuss the catastrophe that is Great American State Fair. As of recording, the event is down to just two artists performing... maybe three. All told, Milli Vanilli really doesn't need any more bad press at this stage. FOLLOW and SUBSCRIBE! https://hardlyfocused.com/subscribe Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
