Insert Memory Card Joshua Shadburn

In 2001, Microsoft came practically out of nowhere to create an incredible gaming system: The Xbox.  Although others had tried before it, it was the first to implement easy online connection to others and revolutionized online console gaming.  It was the first with a Hard drive, while also being an absolute powerhouse of a console for its time.  Join the Joshes as they chat about their memories of the console and go through a list of a few great games to check out.

Note: This was recorded before KOTOR remake was announced, which is why neither Josh has a clue about it during the episode.

The consumer television has gone through a lot of revisions and changes over the past few decades.  In this episode, the Joshes discuss what the changes looked like from their point of view growing up, the pros and cons of each new type of technology, and why you might want to get a really old tube TV?



Also, if you want to see a picture of the massive old monitor Josh has that is in the original Xbox reveal, it is here:

What started as an idea for a movie about illegal street racing has turned into a massive blockbuster franchise that can't seem to stop printing money.  In this episode, Josh and Josh chat about one of their favorite movies of all time.

The Josh's discuss what is their most nostalgic generation, comprised of the Original Xbox, Playstation 2, Gamecube, and Dreamcast.  We have a lot of love for these consoles, but they are objectively pretty fantastic when compared to other generations.  Also, Josh is still a bit salty about the Gamecube...which is pretty enjoyable to hear. 

This is a bit of an unpopular opinion, but we love Final Fantasy 8 more than the other games in the franchise. Josh (Shadvegas) and our guest Alex discuss in depth why we love this oddball game so much.  JBreezy's here too, with some valuable input and a ton of laughter.  

The Playstation 1 was an incredible console that was simply created out of spite and revenge.  Hear the Josh's discuss its legacy, history, and some great games to check out.
