    Maaarch Maaadddness 2023: Naruto: The Chunin Exam (Pt 1)

    After 3 years of radio silence, Harry and Sky are back to make good on their Maaarrrch Maaadddness promise from 2020. Here it is in all its nerdy glory: we talk for hours about Naruto. Harry drinks a Rusty Kunai. There's Coffee In That Forbidden Jutsu. It's the episode where we forget who, like, half of these Naruto characters even are.

    The Harry Potter All-Takes Hour Hosted By Throw The Game

    This bonus episode recorded in May 2019 was made for people who donated $1 CAD or more to TTG's production (thanks Jason!). But it was so good we wanted to give it to you for free! Topics: How to see two ppl doin' it in a HP movie, Dumbledore's canonical shit, Youngbledore, Ronbledore, wizard hats, LeBron playing Hagrid in the Cosby-Show-esque sitcom The Weaselys. Recommendations: The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemison Michael Moorecock's "Elric of Melnibone" novels This is the end of the line for TTG - we have had so much fun sharing our b******t and bits with you over the years but Harry and I have moved on to other projects. Some of the best parts of TTG have found new life in the narrative and comedy podcasts that Harry makes for Blue Wire. Please follow Harry on twitter @HarrySwartout for these, and also for all inquiries and correspondance related to TTG. Our TTG twitter account will remain active but dormant and unmonitored - please don't hack it. Our archive of episodes will remain available for the foreseeable future. If we ever make another collaborative project, we'll drop a note about it here. Thank you for listening. Mr. Celery Forever. -TTG

    Ep. 00: Untitled Swartout Brothers Pilot

    Back in July 2017 we recorded a pilot of what would eventually become TTG just before Sky moved to Montreal. This was so long ago that I can make no claims for its content or quality, and I'm too lazy to listen back to it now before I post it so I just hope we don't say anything too inappro-pro. Enjoy!

    102: The Moe Berg of Hockey

    Step inside, weary traveller, and we will regale you with tales of interest from the strange past of sport. With other gentlemen! Harry and Sky discuss 1960s womens' basketball rules and uniforms (both whack, of course), the Moe Berg of Hockey, the Soviet hockey anthem Cowards Don't Play Hockey, and Sky's increasingly dumb Resident Evil 4 nuzlocke runs.
