    Lightning Round

    What shape is lightning? Is it round? I know lightning comes up from the ground rather than down from the sky, but what shape does it take? And is that shape round? We dive into that and other topics in this very special.......what's that? Oh that's not what.....it's about speed? I supposed that's fine I guess. Yeah, enjoy this fast, weird, episode! In this episode: Dave takes a bold stance, Giovanni does weird stuff with his voice, Greg mostly keeps the clock running. Thank you to everyone who submitted a topic for this and any other episode.

    Oops feat. Tom Zalatnai

    In the digital equestrian justice system, the gamers are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the farmhands that spend time nurturing the majestic beasts; and the game developers that program the horses in the video games that gamers enjoy so much. These are their stories. DUN DUN Oh, wait, this is for a different show. Uh, ignore all this I guess? In this episode: Tom commits a crime, David keeps at it, Greg drops some deep lore, Giovanni stands trial. If you have a suggestion for our next episode, throw it in a comment or review! Or send us your suggestion at lefttriggerrighttrigger@gmail.com. Games discussed: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Minecraft, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Sim feat. Ayla Kaluski

    What is real? How do we determine what in our life is real vs not? We can never know using our senses, which is why we must build a simulation to determine the answer! We've gathered a panel of the brightest minds we could find, the best technical executives, and a gaggle of hedge fund managers to pay for it all. We'll leave the boys in the lab to cook up what will of course be a world changing invention. But hedge fund managers can only bring us so far so if you want to get in on the ground floor of this exciting opportunity. So open your wallets and find out if you're real or not! Giovanni goes for a drive. Ayla breaks ground. David puts things under glass. Greg does a callback. There's still time to leave us a rating or a review on your podcatcher of choice if you'd like. Thanks again to our Patrons for your support through the years. Games discussed: Gran Turismo, The Sims 4, Animal Crossing, Microsoft Flight Simulator Show Notes:

    Death feat. Andrew Zucosky

    Oh, hello. Welcome to the gates, thanks for checking in. Looks like.....you've been listening to podcasts, specifically general media podcasts marketing themselves as video game podcasts. Well, you had a good run. Too bad you didn't get to listen to their latest, the last in a long run with Andrew Zucosky. It's ok though, they'll probably have it where you're going. Hmmm? Oh I have no idea where you're headed, I'm just the greeter. In this episode, David hops on pots, Giovanni talks about [redacted], Greg tells the story of death, Andrew asks "what does it matter?" If you'd like to nudge the direction you go, consider leaving us a rating or review. Games discussed: Disney's Aladdin, Final Fantasy 7, Neon White, One Chance Show Notes: Masks episode

    Water

    It's our 200th episode! We take some time to look back and look forward and think about things, like the various celebrities with ice cream flavors named after them and if anyone knows who those are anymore. For the record, we know. We know everything. We've always known. YOU CANNOT HIDE THE TRUTH FROM US AS WE'VE ALWA- ahem, sorry about that. Nothing to see... In this episode, Giovanni looks at the waves, David races time itself, Greg uses his bodies to create a platform. If you'd like to support us, consider leaving a rating or review on your podcatcher of choice. If you're wondering where the Patreon link is, listen to the beginning of the episode. Games discussed: Super Mario Sunshine, Wave Race 64, UFO 50 Show Notes:  Deconstructing the water effect in Super Mario Sunshine UFO 50

    Friends

    "Comedy series about a tight-knit group of friends living in Manhattan. It also covers their interactions with their families, their lovers, and various colleagues over a period of several years." That's what IMDB says the synopsis is for the hit TV show Friends. Never has a synopsis given me pause and made me ask if I'm in a simulation. Thankfully, none of us live in Manhattan anymore so we definitely don't live in that particular simulation, but what about New Girl... In this episode, Giovanni is in scheduling hell, David keeps trying, Greg tries to stay positive (results inconclusive). If you'd like to join our simulation, consider joining our Patreon for as little as $1 to join our Discord. Or if you'd like to weigh in on the parameters, leave us a rating or review on your podcatcher of choice. Games discussed: Borderlands, The Finals, Pokemon X & Y
