What is EA doing lately...? - Crubcast w/Pre and Post Shows

3 main topics for tonight

1. What is EA doing lately?

2. Kojima, bad, or bad? (M's take)
3. Furry or monster-fucker? (Sean explains, kind of)

The one and only OTHER Jak 2 tierlist for every mission (scientifically determined)

When I sat down, I was a tired man ready to turn the night around by talking some Spyro 3.

Brody...Brody tricked me. I left with no soul remaining.

Here is a testament to my torture.

Ranking Every Realm in Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage

Just what it says on the tin, for the record there are 6 less levels in this game than the first... and about 85 more minutes worth of incoherent babbling to show for it on our end. Trouble with the socialists, eh?

Trying to guess entry #100 on top 100 lists - Crubcast audio version

Justin approached us with a devious game. We're all familiar with top 100 lists, but we never focus on the bottom end of them. So what if we tried to guess as close as we can to #100? Dreamcast, PS3, Spotify, passing yards...we...we spent 10 minutes trying to guess ANY song from Spotify...

CRANKIN OUR HOGS #1: Exploring Playdate's Season 2, Week 1 Games

Hello! As thanks to anyone who knows what a crub is, we've decided to put out a free video for everyone over the next few Wednesdays. The Playdate's second season just started releasing (if you don't know what a Playdate is, click here), so Kevin pulled in Nicco to do a ...

Brody and Chris rank every realm in Spyro the Dragon

Brody and I sat down with a simple idea. Let's rank every level from the original Spyro trilogy. As time marched on we realized the folly of our mission and split this into 3 separate tier lists. We may reconvene at the end to realize our initial vision.

For now...tell us how correct we are.

We're Turning 2 - Mid-May Crubletter

That's right, our weird little podcast baby is turning 2 on the 26th. It's catching us at a fun time, a good portion of us have been busy sorting (positive) personal affairs and taking on more work to keep our output coming as we navigate those things behind the scenes. All of this with most of us also prepping to attend TooManyGames in a month'...

Hello Crubscribers(TM) (Patent Pending). A few months back these 3 chuckleheads sat down to interview each other about their journeys.

Hey gang. We've mentioned this on preshows and we'll run it by you again on the Crubletter on Monday. On our 2nd anniversary on the 26th, though, we plan to begin staggering our episode cadence so that the audio version and video version are different episodes within the same week. This is prone to exceptions, like maybe if something timely or r...
