If Kirby swallowed a boss from Metal Gear Solid, what absolutely bonkers power would he obtain? Which of the X-Men would be the biggest bummer of a roommate? Is King Bob-Omb’s rule officially recognized by the Mushroom Kingdom or is Bob-Omb Battlefield a sovereign nation? Debate This! asks the kind of bold and heroic questions about your favorite video games and comics that no other podcast would dare ask. Although, it’s probably because other people have better things to do than argue which color of Yoshi is the best color of Yoshi.
In this show, no one is right, but someone is definitely wrong.

FLAVOR TEXT: Elden Ring
The fallen leaves tell a story. The great Elden Ring was released. Now, two years later, the long-awaited DLC is nowhere to be found. Soon, FromSoftware's fanbase, demigods all, executed challenge run after challenge run. A naked man with a pot on his head was the first to perish. Arise now, ye Tarnished. Ye dead, who might yet go on to actually complete this 120+ game. The call of long-lost grace and a really, really good open world Action RPG calls us all.
This month, we're entering the Lands Between and talking all about 2022's Elden Ring! Join us on this fantastical journey, courtesy of #buttthwompnation member @mgrum54!

Ep. 144: Cozy Regular Dude Type Folks
The month of May is synonymous with flowers and sunny weather. Birds are chirping, buds are blooming and farming sim fans are hunting for this year's way to enjoy the outdoors without leaving the indoors. Now we're not talking about just farming sims, we're setting our sights on the whole "cozy game" genre. The execs have asked us to head to the field of video games and harvest some new cozy games. Today we're tackling the questions, "What not cozy game should be remade but cozy?"
Kyle's pitch is about as radical as a cozy game can be. Andrew's pitch is about as pun-filled as a cozy game can be. Matt's answer is pretty much just Five Nights at Freddy's.

Ep. 143: What're Ya Droppin'? (ft. Greg Schulz)
Profits are down! Why are profits down? Who knows, but they're down everywhere! Profits are so down that Big Capitalism has come running to us here at DT!HQ to get profits back up! How are we going to get profits back up? With card battlers of course!
Todd gives the people what they want and completes a beloved trilogy. Matt is making the sickest, raddest card battler you've ever seen. If you understand Andrew's answer, hey, this episode is for you. And last but not least, because only Kyle understands card games, we invited our buddy Greg Schulz to keep us on track.

Ep. 142: Put the E Back in Wii Sports (LIVE! at Midwest Gaming Classic)
On the day of our non-denominational Lord, April 7th, 2024, 4 nerds were given a platform for a second time. A platform, not just on the internet, but in a real life place in front of real life people at the Midwestern Gaming Classic in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Those 4 nerds dared to ask a dangerous question, "What sport should be added to Wii Sports?"
This raucous debate will really have you questioning if you know what a sport is. Andrew is pushing for esports in video games. Kyle is defending an American pastime. Todd is combining two things you didn't know could be combined.

FLAVOR TEXT: Green Lantern
Years before we saw them in successful Marvel movies, we had Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi in a different superhero movie: 2011's cinematic masterpiece Green Lantern. Today's FLAVOR TEXT isn't about that shared misery, but instead is about its source material. Join us as we dive into 80 years of lanterning. From Alan Scott and his convoluted origin, to B'dg the alien squirrel, we're talking about the good, the bad, and the weird that comprise the Green Lantern Corp.

Woo Woo!!
Spooktacular is back! Love the train whistle. Great episode making an everyday video game spooky!
Fun Questions with Wild Answers
If you’ve ever wanted to ponder strange scenarios about video games and comic books then boy howdy is this podcast for you! Even after 4 years of listening, I continue to be excited about the content that is debated on this show and the wild takes presented here as answers. Plus, their Flavor Text series puts in the work for a deep dive on a topic so you don’t have to!
Binge Worthy
I can’t stress how beneficial for everyone who isn’t Todd, it will be if....
you read through this reivew to see how hillarious these guys are. I heard about this podcast while they debating if DVD players could be considered a video game console at the Portland Retro Gaming Con. I have been devouring this faster than a Castlevania Wall Chicken and have joined the #buttthwompnation.
Each episode is one of the guys modding the arguments the other three bring to the table about a nerdy random topic. What game would you turn into a dating sim? What video game food would Bobby Flay serve?
Or in Flavor Texts - they dive deep into a singular topic and really explore the topic. It ranges from Pokemania to sexual identities in comic books.
