We're coming out the other side of the big hundo with the next entry into this year's annual Spooptoberfest: the cult classic horror FPS Clive Barker's Undying! Shane has a lot of fond memories of this one, but does it stand the test of time? Dive on into the murky depths with special guest host Ozzy (formerly of the Region Free Gamers) to find out!

RHP, Episode 101 – Clive Barker’s Undying: Family Feud (ft. Ozzy)

Holy pixels, Batman: we made it to episode 100! As far as totally arbitrary milestones go, this is a huge one for us, so we're celebrating by doing something a bit different and answering any and all questions submitted by you, our wonderful listeners!

RHP, Episode 100 – Ask Us Anything!

How, precisely, is a raven like a writing desk? We don't know, but it probably has something to do with murder. We're kicking off our annual Spooptober with a twisted take on a much-beloved tale of imagination and fantasy: American McGee's Alice! Joining us once again, this time to chat about Cheshire Cats, is the one and only Lynnsey!

RHP, Episode 99 – American McGee’s Alice: Tea with Friends (ft. Lynnsey)

Man, the 80s and early 90s sure did have a thing for vigilante justice, didn’t they? Special guests Toby and Goobz of the Secret Levels Podcast enter the battle, so lace up the boots of a few young, hot-headed ex-cops with nothing but righteous vengeance on their minds and take to the streets… OF RAGE.

RHP, Episode 98 – Streets of Rage: Just Vigilante Things (ft. Toby & Goobz)

Kade Call of the Gaming Memories podcast joins us once again, this time to figure out what the f*@k is even going on in the impenetrable enigma of a game known as Myst.

RHP, Episode 97 – Myst: Take a Look, It’s in a Book (ft. Kade Call)

Widely considered to be Nintendo’s oft-neglected third major IP, we hop into the suit of galactic bounty hunter Samus Aran and discover what awaits in the classic NES platformer Metroid!

RHP, Episode 96 – Metroid: Ridley Scott’s Space Mullets

We are joined once again with our favorite Nintendhost LPTyger to discuss our… Less than favorite 3D platformer: Bubsy 3D: Furbitten Planet. Why would we want to subject ourselves to this, you may ask? For our wonderful, definitely-not-sadistic Patrons, of course! We do this because we love you.

RHP, Episode 95 – Bubsy 3D: What Could Pawsibly Go Wrong? (ft. LPTyger)

The City of New York is under siege, and the only hope is… A creature most known for accosting pizza delivery drivers? Sure, why not. Save everyone from your evil doppelgänger with the power of pizza and yo-yos!

RHP, Episode 94 – Yo! Noid: What Noive!

Nintendo has gained a bit of a reputation over the years for taking chances on what some might consider to be “gimmicks.” Sometimes these pay off (see: the Wii) and sometimes they do not (see: this episode). Hunch over a table and smash your eyeholes into the viewfinder, ’cause we’re talking about the Virtual Boy!

RHP, Episode 93 – Virtual Boy: Seeing Red

Tighten your body armor, load up that nail gun, and prepare yourself for MAXIMUM 90s EDGE, because we’re rocket-jumping right into the classic PC FPS Quake by id Software!

RHP, Episode 92 – Quake: I Wanna Frag You Like an Animal

At this point, we’re convinced our Patrons are colluding to kill us slowly via exposure to terrible games. The quarterly PatronPoll results are in, the people have spoken, and they have chosen pain. Put on your black-rimmed glasses and join us as we recount our time spent “playing” Superman: The New Superman Adventures for the...

RHP, Episode 91 – Superman 64: A Dumpster Full of Kryptonite

Hoo boy, this one’s a doozy. Adam of The Good, The Bad, & The Backlog podcast joins us once again (though it is his debut on the main show, huzzah!), this time to take a deep dive into the emotional rollercoaster that is NieR. Grab a box of tissues and get comfortable with moral ambiguity,...

RHP, Episode 90 – NieR: Lunar Tears, Shed for Friends (ft. Adam of The Good, The Bad, & The Backlog)

Kade Call, host of the Gaming Memories podcast, joins us to chat about the game that many consider to be the forefather of all JRPGs: Dragon Quest (or Dragon Warrior for those of us outside Japan). Brush up on Ye Olde English, stock up on torches, and venture forth; the Dragonlord awaits!

RHP, Episode 89 – Dragon Quest: Don’t Love It? But Thou Must! (ft. Kade Call)

It was only a matter of months ago when Chris decided to record a bonus episode, part of our typically Patron-exclusive RHGaiden series, with Patrons and friends of the show Adam of The Good, The Bad, & The Backlog podcast and Riku. It was mere days ago that we learned of Riku’s sudden passing. Though...

RHGaiden Special Episode – Nier: Automata (ft. Riku & Adam)

With the release of New Pokémon Snap for the Nintendo Switch, it only seems right that we hearken back to the original N64 title that started it all. It sure wasn’t what Poké-fans were expecting at the time, but the feel-good photo romp soon became a beloved entry into the Pokéverse. Nintendhost LPTyger and special...

RHP, Episode 88 – Pokémon Snap: Family-Friendly Voyeurism (ft. LPTyger & Lynnsey)

A podcast about gaming history, fueled by beer.
